LONDON, Eng, Jan. 1-Right Hon.
Joseph Chamberlain, Secretary of State for
the Colonies, has issued an official state
ment that he is now in communication
with President Kruger of the South Afri-
can Republic, in an endeavor to avert seri-
Gus consequences of the unauthorized and
altogether uniustifable act of Dr. Jane
son, the administrator of the British South
Africa Company, in leading force of from
500 to 700 men into the Transvaal to assist
the Uitlanders in their contention against
the South African Republic.
Governor Robinson of Cape Colony has
issued a proclamation publicly repudiating
the act of DR.. jameson, and has caused to
be published in the newspapers of Pre-
toria and Johannesburg an injunction in
the name OF the Queen to all her Majesty's
subjects in the Transvaal not to give aid to
DIR. Jameson, but to obey the law and OBJ
serve order.

Demonstration ia Honor of President
ClereIdnd's Message.
PANAMA, COLOMBIA, Dec 25.-The Star
and Herald says: On Monday night, De-
cember "a, Pa anama witnessed public
demonstration the like OF which has never
occurred in its history before. The demon
stration, as already announced, was or
ganized for the sole purpose of giving
expression of approval of the firm stand
which President Cleveland has taken in
the Anglo Venezuelan dispute.
From an early hour people began to as
seinble in the Santa Ana Plaza, the start
ing point of the procession, and at O'Clock
P. NJ. there had congregated fully 1000 per
sons. The procession was headed by a
cavalcade of about fifty, each rider bearing
flag representing the different republics
of America. Two bands of music came
after, followed by the fire brigade with
torchlights. There were also two or three
illuminated transparencies, with notices
such as these: "Pueblc de Panama; f;
James Monroe, America para los Ameri-
canos"; Viva Venezuela, COMA Cubana al
Presidente Cleveland; viva la Anne
rique"; "Grover Cleveland"
On the arrival of the procession at the
United States consulate the band PLAYED
yankee Doodle at the close of which
the stars and stripes were raised and
dipped three times amid ringing cheers
from the assembled multitude, and SIM
ultaneously the band struck up the Co.
lombian national anthem. This yer.salI
eyes were turned to the balcony of the
American consulate, where several GENTLE
men had assembled in response to the
Consul-GeneraPs invitation. AS soon as
DR.. Pablo arose and stepped forward a
loud cheer was given and this gentleman
began his speech, in the course of which
not the slightest reference was made to
England.
Victor Vifquain, the Consul-General
of the United States, replied. He thanked
the Colombians for ltheir appreciation OF
President Cleyeland's message and con-
graduated them upon the grand and fit
ting demonstration which he character
lied as patriotic. He said that he would
like it to be understood that the demon
stration was not hostile to England, nor
was the Monroe doctrine declaration of
war. The speaker briefly outlined the early
history of the Magma Charta, stating tnat
it was not originally written law but now
formed the basis of the Nation. He
llkened the Monroe doctrine to the Magma
Charta, stating that the Monroe doctrine
was to the United States what the Magma
Charta was TO England.

Consul entertained about 100 persons at a

DEMONSTRATION AT PANAMA
Wild Enthusiasm of the Populace Over
the Attitude of the United
States.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 1.-The
President to-day announced the compost
tion of the Venezuelan Commission, which
will consist of five members as follows:
David ]. Brewer of Kansas, Associate JUS
tce of the Supreme Court of the United
States Richard II. Alvey of Maryland,
Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals of
the District of Colum bia Andrew D.White
of New York, Frederick r. Coudert Of New
York, Daniel G. Gilman of Maryland,
president of the Johns Hopkins University.
Judge Richard Henry Alvey is a native
of Maryland. He was on the Judiciary
Committee of the Constitutional Con-
vention of 1867, and was elected Ctief
Judge of the Fourth Circuit under the new
constitution, and was reelected in 1882
He was designated by Governor Hamilton
as Chief Justice of the Court of Appeals of
Maryland, to succeed Judge Bartol. This
place he resigned to accept the office of
Chief Justice of the Federal Court of
Appeals in the District of Colum bia-a

companying him that they shall retire
from the Transyaal territory imm mediately.
The situation is very much aggravated by
the fact that DR.. Jameson cut the wires be-
hind him, rendering telegraphic communi-
cation with him iTnpos s1ble. Mr.. Chant
berlain sent a uispatth to the British
South Africa Company asking them to re-
pudiate jameson and his acts. To this
dispatch the company replied that it was
entirely ignorant of Jameson's acts or pur-
poses. Cecil Rhodes, Prime Minister of
Cape Colony, in connection with this re-
ply stated that Jameson had acted without
authority.
DR.. jameson wrote letter to the COM
mandant at Maricoland refusing to with
draw from the Transvaal, and avowing
that he would proceed upon his original
plans, which in acceptance of the invita-
ton of the principal residents of the Rand
were to assist them III their demands for
justice.
1t is rumored here that advices have
been received announcing the arrival of
DR.. Jameson with his followers in Johan-
nesburg.
The Standard tomorrow will print a
dispatch from its Berlin correspondent
saying that the news of the invasion of
the Transvaal has caused such storm of
indignation in the German capital as has
rarely been witnessed. Emperor William
yesterday summoned by telegraph to the
New Palace Baron Marschail Won Bieber-
stein, Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, to discuss the situation. The cor
respondent adds there is excellent reason
for believing that German statesmen ex-
pect a peaceful and satisfactory settle
ment of the affair.

proposition OF Denmark TO sell st. Thomas
Island to the United States. CulIom had

EsoAPE OF 4 MURDERER.
Captured the Engine of Train During
His Flight for lie.

WAYCROSS, GA, Jan. 1.-Asmurderer
fleeing from officers captured an engine on
one of the Plant-system trains Saturday
night, and, with pistols drawn, forced the
engineer and fireman 10 carry him away
from his pursuers. The man was negro.
and acknowledged having stabbed a
woman and man to death at Jasper, Fla.
The trainmen could do nothing until
they met the southbound train. The en-
gineer blew distress signal, and as the
two trains slowed up the negro jumped.
The train crews got pistols and chased
him, keeping up a running fire, but
though he was hit more than once he
made his escape. Bloodhounds are on his
track.
