BOND BIDS
Not Opened Yet But viii Exceed the Amount
of the Bonds

of the Bonds
WASHINGTON, j an. 3l.-Nothiny definite
can be learned at the treasury department
as to the number and amount of bids al.
ready received for the new bonds. AS fast
as received the bids are deposited in safe
where they will remain until next Wednes-
day, when they will be opened and their
contents announced. 1t is certain, how
ever, that large number of bids have been
received and the mail brings considerable
additions. As to the amounts or prices Of
fered. even the secretary of the treasury
knows nothing except in the few cases
where he has been privately advised by
letter. There seems to be no doubt that
the amount of the bids will exceed the
S100,00O,OO0 to be offered, and it
is expected that the foreign offers
will be considerably more than was ex
pected when the loan was announced. The
improved political situation abroad, 1t is
believed. will contribute to this end. The
semi-otficial announcement that bidders
who intend to pay for their bonds in for
eign coin will be given the preference in
making the awards is expected to stimu-
late foreign competition for the bonds. The
thing most to be feared in connection with
the sales, it is said at the treasury, is pos
sibe combine by which large percentage
of the offers will be at uniformly low rates.
Should this prove to be the case there
seems to be no doubt that Secretary Car
Isle would not hesitate to reject all bids
below what he would regard as fair both to
the government ana to the purchaser.

Hays Hammond, who is in Jail at Pretoria,
South Africa.
II was arrested with sixty-four others
charged with sedit:on and high treason.
The circumstances are as follows: The
history of the Transvaal is that of small
unenlightened, retrogressive community.
The government is a narrow oligarchy,
with bad. inefficient administration. The
population, including many prominent
Americans. comprises more than twice the
governing class. They are the wealth pro-
ducers, capable of all industries, yet they
bear nine-tenths of the taxation. They
feel themselves alcne, have no voice in af-
fairs. are excluded from franchise. haveno
municipal government, no participation
from children for the public schools.
"They are oppressively taxed and badly
treated. The independence of the supreme
court is constantly assaiied by the legisla-
ture. This condition of affairs has pre-
vailed for years. All petitions for redress
of grievances and remonstrances to the
Boer legislature were treated with scorn.
''In December the leading citizens of
Johannesburg, including all the prominent
Americans, constituted reform commit

that Miss Collins is the only relative in the

chants and clerks familiar with the prov

GERS here say that an important engage
ment will be fought before General Marin
returns to Havada.
Tne departure yesterday of General
Marin is given out here as marking the be-
ginning of IA more aggressive military pol

campaign. His purpose is stated officially
to be to enter upon The pursuit of Gomez

infantry and four batteries of artillery.

BOSTON, Jan. 3l.--Tne schooner Alicia
B. Crosby, which was one of the three ves-
sells that rescued the members of the Cuban
filibustering expedition wrecked with the
steamer j. w. Hawkins Monday morning,
arrived at this port today. From Cap ain
Il. w. Bunker. of the Crosby, it is learned
that great difficulty was experienced in
resculng the men on account of iheir I'M
familiarity with marine matters, and that
to this fact was due the loss of three men
whom the captain saw go down. The
Crosby rescued thirteen men who were in
boat which the rescued men claimed
contained from sixteen 10 twenty-four per-
sons. Captain Bunker says:
"However this may be, l saw but three
men drowned but as the boat capszed
soon after we began the work of rescue,
several probably went down as they were
too exhausted to make any battle for their
lives. One of those drowned is said to have
had S6OU i'll gold on his person."

STATE EXAMINERS

Bonds

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 31.-In the state
board of examiners today Attorney Gen.
eral Fitzgerald said he was opposed 10 the
purchase of United States government
bonds with the state funds.

torney general with great emphasis, "to
go outside the state for bonds when there
are county bonds in this state for sale. |
believe that if the state did not purchase
The county bonds they would be sold for
much less than par"
secretary of State Brown said he had
been unable to get county bonds that
agreed with legal requirements.
General Fitzgerald said that he will care
fully examine all county bonds that the
state desires to purchase, so the objection
of the secretary OF state would be re-
moved.
This probably ends the talk about this
state investing any money in the new issue
of government bonds.
Secretary of State Brown asked Attor-
ney.Genaral Fitzgerald if he had done any
thing with the Kovalev reward matter.
which had been referred to MIN.
"You fellows had a three days wrangle
over the thing" said the general. land
then you ended the talk by asking me to
settle it,"
Mr. Brown said the only point which the
opinion of the encouragement was desired
upon was whether the money should be
paid to one person or could be divided up
between several persons.
General Fitzgerald said that undoubtedly
the reward could be so distributed. He
would decide the matter fully in short
time.
At the afternoon session the claim OF
Rateman Brothers Of San Francisco, for
$50 in connection with the new depot
building at San Francisco came up. There
is dispute between the attorney-general
and the attorney of the board of harbor
commissioners as to the proper procedure.
The bill was passed, The governor and Sec
retary of the state voting aye and the at
torney-general voting no. This was
perfect understanding between the mem
bers. 1t was unders ood that the attorney
general voting no should Immediately 20
to the controller and mandamus the pay
ment of the bill so that the matter could
be Immediately brought before the SUI
preme court.
