DR. JAMESON'S TRIAL BEGUN
Members of the Aristocracy
Crowded the Court Room. :
MADE. NO DEMONSTRATION
The Raiders Were StyIishy Dressed and APP
peared Perfectly at Ease, Though the
Evidence Is Strong Against Them.

London, March 10.--Dr. Jameson and
the officers who accompanied him in the
Transvaal raid were again arraigned in
the Bow street police court.this morning
and the charges against them were re-
newed. Major Coventry and Captain
Goslng were added to the list of accused.
TIL court room was crowded with men,
bers of the aristocracy, among whom
were the Duke of Abercorn, the Earl and
Countess of Coventry and Lady Annaly.
A large number of members of the house
of commons were also present Sir Rich
ard Webster, attorney-general, and Mr..
r. b. Finlay, solictor-general, conducted
the prosecution, and Sir Edward Clark
E. H. Carson, member of parliament, and
Sir Frank Lockwood appeared for the de-
Tense. Magistrate Sir John Bridge pre-
sided.
Sir Richard Webster, opening the case
for the prosecution, said that Jameson's
expedition into the Transyaal had long
been planned, but the rank and file of his
party were led to believe that they were
proceeding against a native chief. On
December go, however, Major Coventry
informed the men that they were not 60
Ing to fight the chief, but were going
straight to Johannesburg. DR.. Jameson,
al Mafeking on December 30, said to his
followers that they were going to the as
Sistance of English women and children
in Johannesburg, whose lives and prop
erty were in danger. Sir Richard then
described Jamesons cutting of the tele-
graph wires behind his expedition, and
also described the kilograms recalling
Jameson and warning him of the penal
ties of his acts.
Sergeant Hay, one of Jamesons troop
ers, was then called to the witness box
and gave detailed testimony confirming
the attorney-generaPs allegation.
Sergeant Hay testified that several of
his comrades in the Bechuanaland po-
lice at first refused to join the expedition,
not knowing it's object or destination.
and asked their superiors whether the
movement was in obedience to the orders
of the queen or the British South Africa
company. To these questions he said
Colonel Grey replied In a speech to the
men before the expedition left Mafeking,
in which he said: II cannot say that we
are going by the orders of her majesty,
the queen, but will say that we are go
ing to fight for the supremacy of the
British in South Africa" Hearing this
declaration, Sergeant Hay said, most of
the men decided to go, and did go, but
ten of them refused and remained be-
hind.
The hearing at this point was ad
journed for week.
DR.. Jameson and his companions were
attired in conspicuously stylish gar
ments and appeared to be perfectly at
ease The hearing was perfectly order
ly, and was characterized by none of the
noisy demonstrations which marked the
first appearance Of the raiders in the Bow
street court. The court room was crowd
ed, mostly with distinguished persons,
who were in full sympathy with Jameson
and his companions; but there was no
cheering either upon the entrance or exit
of the defendants.
