Attitude of Mr.. Chamberlain Gives the

Pretoria, May 12.-President Kruger
has declared his unbounded astonish-
ment at the British governments de-
tense of Cecil Rhodes and the British
South Africa company in the British
house of commons during the debates
of the colonial estimates last Friday,
and has expressed the wish that he had
been personally present in order to re-
flute the arguments of Mr.. Chamber
lain. The alleged intrigue between the
Transvaal government and Germany,
he declares the merest soap bubbles.
The South African republic, President
Kruger says, wishes to be friends with
all people, but those who engineered the
recent plot against the Transvaal must
be punished and there will be no rest in
South Africa until this is done.
DIR. w. j. Leyds, secretary of state OF
the Transvaal republic, has addressed
message to Sir Hercules Robinson,
governor of the Cape Colony, in which
he notes the partially shown by Great
Britain towards the directors of the
British South Africa company, and de-
clares that the British South Africa
company, as at present controlled, is a
source of danger to the whole of South
Africa.

utes During this period rain fell as
from cloudburst, accompanied by
hail. The prevailing drift of the wind
was from the southwest, but at times
it seemed to form in les between the
business blocks, and was accompanied
by cyclonic features. Buildings were
unrooted and torn down, cornices swept
from roofs into the street, and the resi-
dence portion of the city nearly de-
nuded of trees. The greatest damage
was at the state hospital for the insane,
where many of the larger buildings
were unroofed. The damage will be
very heavy. The damage in tbs city
will probably reach $4,000, and may
be much heavier, as the suburban dis
tricts are vet cut off from communica-
ton.
Elkhorn, Neb., May ia cyclone
swept over this section yesterday after

Large trees along the highway adjacent
were torn and twisted out Of the ground.

not previously been made public. You will
see constant illusions in the press, espe-
cially In Washington dispatches, to the pos

as you are aware, on very friendly terms

me in unequivocal language that under no
circumstances would he again be in the
field He said there was one reason alone
that would prevent 1t. That is his health.
lie would not survive the labor of another
four years. He feels that he must be outof-
DOORS and take exercise in order to prolong
his days. He proposes to travel and take
life easier in the future. He Informed me
that he would not even accept the nomina-
ton, If made, explaining that he had had
all the honor it was possible to attain in
the exalted position he occupies, and that
he would have the risk of defeat"

be in the field" Mr.. Hesing, however,
