mac river near Noland's Ferry by Mr..

mains were taken TO his home on

wILLOUGHBY DECLINES no TALK.
His Reasons for Believing jameson
Raid Officially Sanctioned

LONDON. April Cat to-day's sitting
of the Parliamentary South African Com
mittee. an official from the War Office
produced a number of letters written by
Major Sir John Wiloughby. the con-
tents o. which the witness refused TO
disclose upon the demand Of Mr.. Labou-
chere at the sitting OF the committee last
Friday. The first letter read was dated
from Holloway Jail. where Willoughby
was serving a term OF ten months I'M
prsonment. which recently expired. In
the communication the writer said that
he had taken part In the jameson move
ment, in pursuance Of orders from the
Administrator OF Matabe'e, and In the
honest belief that the raid was under
taken with the knowledge and assent OF
the Imperial authorities.
Major-General Willoughby was called
TO the stand, and Sir William Harcourt
asked him a number of questions designed
TO draw out a statement OF MS reasons
for believing the raid had the sanction
OF Imperial authority. TO which he an
swered that his belief was based upon
private conversations which he had had
with DR.. Jameson. The witness WAS
pressed for a more detailed answer. but,
after fencing with his questioner for
awhile, he finally refused 10 give any
further Information on the subject.
The chairman warned Major Willough-
by that the testimony he was giving was
IN direct conflict with that given by DR..
Jameson, and asked him 10 explain 10 the
committee the reason why the testimony
Of the two should be so much at va
rance Willoughby repeatedly declined
10 make any explanation, and the chair
man began new line OF questioning by
asking what imperial authority the wit
ness understood TO have sanctioned the
raid into Boer territory, but he refused
TO answer. The chairman Informed VIII
loughby that both he and DR. jameson
would be recalled FOR the purpose OF re-
coneiling their statements. and the COM
mlttoe then adjourned until Friday.

ton OF the amendment has airady called
forth much adverse criticism, and IL
