RAND MEN STILL ARMED
Refuse to Obey the Order Of Gov
ernor Herschell Robinson.
wANTRHoDBs CHARTER CANCELLED

It Is Not Likely That Great Britain VIII
Grant This Demand of the Beers, and
the situation Is still CriticaI-Portuga
win Remain Neutral.
PRETORIA, Transvaal. Jan. 1O-The
government is showing discomfort at the
reluctance displayed by the Rand men to
disarm. It is estimated that 10000 of the
latter have been armed and only 1000
have yielded up their arms. The armed
Boers in the field are also impatient The
position at Johannesburg is critical, and
the Boer leaders have the utmost difficulty
in restraining their men.
A proclamation has just been issued call
ing upon all the Rand men to disarm
before o'clock this evening on pain of
prosecution. Those complying will be
pardoned, except the leaders of the revolt.
There is feeling here that the Rhodes
charter will be cancelled to prevent fur
ther disorders.
sympathy with DR.. jameson makes the
Uitlanders reluctant TO disarm, but as il
is estimated that there are 10000 armed
Beers around the town there is no fear of
further rebellion. The shops are reopen
ing and business is resuming its normal
course. 1t develops that DIR. jameson
force marched 100 miles in ninety hours
never hating more than two hours at q
time
The directors of the Chartered South
Africa company have decided to request
the government to institute an inquiry
into DR. Jamesons action.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1O-The debate of
the senate tree coinage substitute for the
house bond bill was again postponed yes
terday owing to the intervention of Mr..
Stewart the Nevada Populist, who in
sisted upon making speech in favor of
the EllIins resolution as amended by the
Butler amendment, TO prohibit the fur
ther sale of bonds except by the express
consent of congress The free coinage
substitute was called up at the conclusion
of Mr., Stewards speech, and now has the
right of way, so that the debate upon it
can be postponed no longer. Mr.. Stewart 5
speech predicted the failure of the popular
loan proposition of the administration,
and intimated that the loan had already
been underwritten by the gold syndicate

THE BRITISH UNDIsMAYED.
Will Not Grant the Beers Demands with
out severe Struggle.


out Severe Struggle.
LONDON, Jan lO.-Outwardly at least,
there is little, if any, change in the politi-
cal crisis between Great Britain and Ger
many, brought about by Emperor Will
Jams s support of the South African repub-
licin face of the suzerainty of Great Brit
ain over the Transvaal.
The dispatch from Berlin to The Times
saying that it is explained that Germany
desires only to protect German residents
and its consulate at Pretoria by dispatch
ing an armed force from Delagoa bay, has
tended to produce a better feeling But
this has been counteracted by the receipt
of n special dispatch from Pretoria, capital
of the Transvaal saying that the Boers
demand the surrender of all British rights
and suzerainty of the Transvaal and the
pre-emption of Delagoa bay and the can
ceiling Of the charter of the British South
Africa company. 1t is further stated that
the Beers have arrested on the charge of
treason, eight leaders of the recent move
ment among the Uitlanders of Johannes
burg.
These demands, if the dispatch is based
on facts, coupled with the demands of the
Beers for the expulsion from Africa Of
Cecil Rhodes, former premier of Cape
Colony, and DIR. Jameson, who led the
freebooters into the Transvaal, and the.
imposition of heavy fine upon the Brit
ish Charter company or the demand of an
indemnity of $2,5000OO from Great Brit
ain, or both, are not likely to be granted
by the British government without u Sc
we're struggle
The opposition to the demands of the
Beers, however, will mainly rest on the
fact that it is generally admitted that they
are instigated on the whole by Emperor
William, and they form part of a studied
opposition upon his majesty's part to the
colonial policy of Great Britain in Africa
The Berlin and Vienna newspapers re-
gard the warlike preparations of Great
Britain as being Of little Importance, how
ever and as being more in the nature of a
political move than military undertak-
ing, so far as Germany is concerned, but
TIE same periodicals take a more serious
view of the proposed strengthening of the
British forces in South Africa, which step
| is regarded as having in view possible
aggressive action towards the South Afri-
can republican.
The secretary of state for the colonies,
! Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, has sent the fol
lowing dispatch to President Kruger: 81
have received the queens commands to ac-
! quaint you that her majesty has heard
with satisfaction that you have decided tc
hand over the prisoners to her govern
ment. This fact will rebound to youI
credit and conduce to the peace of South
Africa and the harmonious cooperation OF
the British and Dutch races, which is
necessary for its future development anC
prosperity -
A special dispatch from Berlin says that
Russias cooperation with Germany in
the Transvaal matter has been assured
and that France will act with Russia. Thi,
apparently tends TO confirm the report o
an anti-B British alliance and that the acUior
of Emperor William towards the Boer re
public was a thoroughly weighed step.

of Mrs. Mary A. Davidson, for alleged ex-
tortion from Rev. c. o. Brown, pastor OF

that DR.. Brown was aware of the exist
ence of the mysterious Mrs. Baddin, for
whom Mrs. Davidson said she was collect

could not be developed, however, nor did
Mrs. Davidson's attorney succeed in in

the gold forces TO their widest enthusi-

heart contention as he bitterly assailed

CHICAGO, July 10. Ten acres of people
on the sloping sides Of the Coliseum saw
the silver helmeted gladiators In its arena
overpower the gold phalanxes and plant
the banner of silver upon the ramparts OF
Democracy. They saw what may possibly
prove the disruption of great political
party amid scenes of enthusiasm such as
perhaps never before occurred In nation
al convention. They saw 90, 600 people,
with imagination inflamed by the burn
ing words Of passionate oratory swayed
like windswept fields; they heard the aw
ful roar OF 20, 900 voices burst like a vol
cano against the reyerberating dome over
head; they saw q man carried upon the
shoulders of others intoxicated with en-
thusiasm amid tumult and turbulence;
they listened to appeals, to threats to cries
for mercy, and finally they watched the
Jubilant majority seal Its victory and the
vanquished stalk sullenly forth from the
convention hall
In this fierce battle over the supremacy
of Democratic principles each side sent Its
champions to the forum. Senator Tillman
of South Carolina, Senator Jones of Ar

Senator Hin of New York, Senator Villas
