1t Was Received In England Friday.
Now Under CONFEDERATION.
LONDON, April 2S.-The first lord of
the treasury, Mr.. A. ]. Balfour, reply
ing to Sir William Vernon Harcourt,
the liberal leader, said in the house Of
commons that arrangements for con-
vention Of arbitration with respect to

ters which Great Britain and the United

negotiations. Mr.. Balfour added that
the last communication from the
United States arrived on Friday last,
and was now under consideration.
Continuing, Mr.. Balfour said that
the government would deal both with
the general question Of arbitration,
and also with the special question con.
nected with Venezuela, and that it
was hoped that by pat ence and tact on
both sides, a peaceful and satisfactory
solution Of the matters would be OBJ

Wheat Expected to Advance After May
Deliveries.
CHICAGO, April 2S.-The Times
Herald says regarding the grain and
provision markets:
The wheat professional is looking for
rally after the May deliveries. In
the interim he expects lower prices
Last week May dropped from 65A to
6214 and closed at 63ls. Within fort
night there has been drop Of over 8
cents. In the next few days he expects
increasing May liquidation and next
Friday large deliveries of spring wheat
unless the spread" has meanwhile
widened somewhat.
After the delivery day there will be
aids Of various sorts to help the bulls.
When these helps come, and, after the
bugaboo Of the deliveries is past, q
rally will be all the easier and all the
more natural after the sharp decline in
the latter half of April.

kRUGER'S ANSWER EXPLAINED
Hon. Joseph Chamberlain Talks About
Transvaal Affairs.

Hon. Joseph Chamberlain Talks About
TransvaaI Affairs.
LONDON, April 2S.-In anticipation
of the statement by Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain regarding President
Kruger's reply, there were in the gall
leries of the house of commons, a
larger number of visitors than had
been there on any occasion since the
reassemb bling of parliament. On rising
Mr.. Chamberlain said that President
Kruger's reply to the question must be
considered in connection with the COM
munications which had preceded it.
The most important point was that the
president says, referring to the request
for definite reply to the invitation
which he feels confident that the secre-
tary of state for the colonies will recog-
nize and appreciate the difficulty Of his
position, and that it appears to him
wiser not to press the question Of his
proceeding to England any further at
present, but to leave the matter open,
especially in view of the coming ses-
sion of the volksraad, and the desira.
bility of his presence at least at a por.
ton of the session, when important
measures are to be considered.
Under the circumstances, continued
Mr.. Cham berlain, the government was
reluctantly withdrawing its invitation
and had asked Sir Hercules Robinson,
the governor of Cape Colony, to send
Sir Graham Bower, the imperial secre-
tary at Cape Town, to England, in
order that the latter might receive in.
structions regarding further negotia-
tions. In conclusion, Mr.. Chamber.
lain said that the government hoped to
lay the correspondence on the subject
on the table in the course of the week.
He could not, however, he said, fur.
nish any further information at pres.
ent, adding that Sir William Vernon
Harcourt would agree with him that it
was not expedient to discuss negotia-
tions which were still proceeding.

by Spanish soldiers, under General Mel.
quizo's bidding several weeks ago, the
brutal Spanish officer is still butchering
people in Havana province. Although
official investigation shows that Mel
quizo is guilty of all charges against
him, he has not been suspended from

enough influence in Madrid to make it
exceedingly uncomfortable for any su.

the past two weeks.
Kills in Cold Blood.
Near Campo Florido, 50 the informa.

able countrymen, and by his orders
they were killed. At Minas, 10
"pacificos' fell into his clutches and
were shot, and near Bainos, he razed
10 farms and gathered in 40 laborers,
who were killed in cold blood. The
most horrible phase of the last butchery
is the fact that wo" Ell and children
were amongHthose massacred. In the
vicinity of Jaruco, Melquizo ordered
the slaughter of AZ persons, who were
taken from fields where they were at
work
The people in his territory are flock

Some of the second floor jewellers of
fremont enjoy advantages of which the
occupants Of the first floors are deprived.
In many parts of that district the
dwelling houses are built adjoining.
Some of these houses are erected after
the cheapest plans possible, and in many
instances the owners refuse to bear the
expenses of having hills behind them
cut down.
By this fact the occupants of the first
floor are deprived of yard advantages,
while those on the second and often on
the third and fourth floors have them.
1t is not an uncommon thing there
for an occupant Of the first floor to ask
the occupant of the second or third,
