At his own quarters in Berlin Count
Won Kotze today received the

the other members Of his family. He
was also congratulated by scores of

Baron Won Schrader's wound was OPP
Grated upon during the day and the ply

The emperor has been notified of the

1t is stated that Baron Won Schrader

load to carry, whatever his platform.
He would have TO lead President Cleve-
lands cabinet and declare that he was
in no way responsible for the bond bus
mess. He would have to show that the
president had directed that whole bust
ness, and that would make one OF the
greatest scandals ever known in Wash
ington. 1t would be the beginning OF
the opening of the opening up of all the
scandals OF this administration, and
there have been several for which Car
Isle has been the scapegoat Ee would
have TO show that he had been the vic

could hope TO be candidate for presi-
dent
What are Morrison's chances?"
well, Morrison is in peculiar po-
sition. He is q western man, popular
with western Democrats, but he is in
sympathy with the eastern men on the
money question. He is a gold man
from a silver state, for there is no Ques-
ton about Illinois Democrats being for
silver. The popularity Of his position
is that the silver men would accept
Morrison believing that he would be
square with them, but the gold men
with whom he sympathizes are nor1ina-
ted by Cleveland and would not accept
Morrison unless he was forced upon
them
Cleveland has the gold leaders by the
throat, and he has them in his power.
They have used his administration for
their profit and they want TO continue
TO use IL for the year yet remaining.
But TO do that they must obey the die
tation of Cleveland so far as politics is
concerned. He does not like Morrison,
and he will do anything he can to pre-
vent Morrison's nomination by the gold
men Of the east.
1.-The only hope for Morrison is from
the anti-administration men Of the east
or the silver men of the west. Tammany
would rather have Morrison than any
other candidate, and if Tammany can
put him forward, or put up a moderate
platform which would be acceptable
we could name and he might secure the
nomination But at present Morrison
is as much, If not more, embarrassed
by the money question than any one
else. The men who want him for a
candidate do not want his platform,
and the men who want his platform do
not want him"

London and BuluwayO DO Not Agree on
the Troops Question.
London, april 11-Advices received
by the Times regarding the situation in
Mstabeleland again take a rather alar-
mist tone, but no advices have been re-
ceived by the government TO bear out
this view Of the situation and the pres
ent force Of troops in South Africa is
considered sufficient by the government.
A Buluwayo dispatch says: The whole
Of the Matabele nation has arisen and
i,5O0 men in strong cooperative columns
will be required to clear the country.
1t is impossible to act, except on the
defensive, with small patrols.
A dispatch from Pretoria TO the Times
says: An Indictment has been issued
which charges all the members Of the
national reform committee, who have
been made prisoners without distinction
of cOnspiring with Dr.. Jameson to in
wade the Transv2al, and TO cause an
insurrectiOn at johannesburg. It also
charges them with sending armed
