CAUSE OF The RuMPos.
| Chicago.-J. B. Weinberg, of Johannes
burg, who is at present sojourning in the
CITY, says that the invasion of the Trans
wall was in no sense an effort on the
part OF England to annex the celebrated
South African gold fields. The people Of
Johannesburg, who united in calling upon
DR.. Jameson, would fight to man against
coming under British rule.

its riches in gold and diamonds" Mr..
Weinberg continued, "the law concerning
the naturalization of new comers was the

shown to the mining industries. In this
way the country succeeded in levying

population, which was denied citizenship,
in order to prevent the new oomers
from making an effort to equalizs the
burdens.

said, "that the national union, to remove
these gross abnses, was organized at Jo-
hannesburg. 1t took in its membership
all the more progressive mining men,
many of them Americans and Germans,
who bitterly oppose any attempt on the
part OF England to annex the country.
Even the English residents would oppose
any scheme for the couatry's sub juga.

England's action in stirring np strife in
America, Afrlca and elsewhere; "This
