The Times says; at appears that DIR.

dispatch from Plymouth says they
have promised to avoid any statement
to the press.
The Times approves the appoiLtme at
of Earl Grey as administrator of the
Chartered South African company and
says: "His acceptance of the post is an
earnest of the intention of responsible
authorities to support and cooperate
with Mr.. Cecil Rhodes in his projects
for the internal development of the com

Africa Earl Grey will cease to have any
Pecuniary interest other than that in
herent to the position of a director in
the company, and will consider himself
self precluded from taking any personal
part in the pursuit of wealth Briefly
summarized, Mr.. Rhodes devotes him
self to developing the material resources
OF Rhodesia and attracting large white
population, while Earl Grey will organ
ize and initiate the establishment of a
great English community under the
institutions approximating to the home
