A decree abolishes the Saipan district office under Yap; Yap’s head becomes deputy governor of German New Guinea.

What happened

The decree turned Saipan from a separate district into a branch station under Yap, centralizing the Western Carolines and the Marianas. From 1907 the head of the Yap district, rather than Pohnpei’s, also held the title of vice-governor of German New Guinea. The details come from a Wikipedia mirror, with Habele confirming the 1907 change.
