ABUSED The QUEEN.
Lieutenant EIoff Has Gone to Kru-
gersdorp to Surrender His Com
mand.

johannesburg. April Lieutenant
ElOff. a grandson of President Kruger,
who was yesterday suspended from
duty for using language that was in
sulting to Queen Victoria, has gone to
Krugersdrop to surrender his COM
mand. 1t is stated that President Kru-
ger is intensely annoyed by the Incl
dent, and that he has severely rebuked
Lieutenant Eloff. forbidding him to
ever again publicly refer to the queen.
According to the Boer version of the
affair the actors in it were elevated
with liquor. An unnamed British sub
ject, who aggressively insulted the
Transvaal colors, is held to have been
the aggressor in the first instance.
Lieutenant Eloff was very indignant at
the insult offered the flag Of his coun-
try, and excitedly interposed to prevent
its repetition. The Englishman then
tainted Lieutenant Eloff with the
friendly treatment he had received
during his recent visit to England.
whittier he went for the purpose of
testifying before the South African
commission, which is inquiring into the
circumstances of the rail by DR.. Jane
son into the Transvaal
Lieutenant Eloff became abusive and
used the words that will, in all proba-
hility, result in his permanent retire
ment from the army of the Transvaal.

Athens, April although there has
been no definite occurrence to show
that it is the intention of the powers
to blockade the coast of Greece, 1t is
felt that such a blockade will be short

ing an increase of activity. The min
istry of marine is especially busy. All
the officers of the fleet have been Or
dered to hold themselves in readiness
to sail for the coasts of Epirus and
Thessaly. The energetic preparations
that are being made continue TO evil
dence the staunch patriotism of the
citizens. Owing to the lack of gov
eminent transports merchants are
lending a large number of handy coast

vessels, which are admirably suited TO
carrying of troops and stores, are ply

and the ports on the Greek frontier
So far as essentials are concerned,
the troops on the frontier are already

New York, April lat the regular
monthly meeting of the chamber of
commerce today Chairman Schwab of
the committee on foreign commerce.
and revenue laws. submitted a report
and resolutions on the pending tariff
bill.
The report states that the commits
tee has considered the bill recently in
troduced in the house of representa-
tives, known as the .Dingley tariff
BILL" which, the report says, the COM
mittee finds virtually re-enacts many
of the duties contained in the NTcKfn-
ley act, and in some instances exceeds
them. These changes, which will az
feet the entire business interests of the
country. call for thoughtful considera-
ton of the chamber. The report fur
Their saws:
TT is the opinion of the committee
that the business men of this country
desire nothing more earnestly than an
extended period of rest and cessation
from continued tariff agitation and tar
iff changes. They realize the fact that
the party in power is committed to a.
change in the tariff in the direction
of the greater revenue, and of higher
protection. They demand. however,
l1dI Whatever dHQ SSSlSIlS OI
taxation are adopted shall be so rea-
sonable and conservative and shall so
commend themselves to the majority Of
the intelligent voters of the land. that
the tariff finally adopted may be re-
garded as settled, and not provocative
of an early reaction, rendering all bus
mess calculations and enterprise I'M
certain and hazardous, retarding pros
perity and affording an opportunity to
the advocates of free silver coinage and
disastrous financial schemes for the
pressing of their peculiar doctrines"
The resolutions declare that it is the
conviction of the chamber that the tar
iff bill now before the house of repre-
sentatives is excessive, ard that it
should be carefully revised in the di-
rection of a readjustment of rates pro-
posed, to the end that a system of tar
iff taxation may be adopted that shall
be reasonably permanent, and that
shall insure the business interests Of
the country of immunity from an early
change.
The report was accepted and the
resolutions adopted.

ROCKEFELLER'S NEW HOME
House Will Be the Handsomest One
in All America.

Tarrytown, N. Y, April IA large
force of men is at work at Kaakout,
the property of John D. Rockefeller,
converting it into a park. 1t is said
Mr. Rockefeller is preparing to erect
on the grounds house which will be
the handsomest in America.
The property consists of nearly 1000
acres in the most beautiful part of
Westchester county. About half of the
land was purchased a short time ago
from the Parsons estate Mr.. Rookie
Teller has been trying to purchase the
surrounding country and has been sue
cessful, with the exception of the
ground occupied by Sisters of Mercy
convent The territory is historic. In
colonial days the place was a retreat
for Indians. and during the revolution
attachments of the patriot army were
stationed there. Mr.. Washington often
visited the mount to observe the move
ments of the enemy. There stood on
this property until recently the house
in which Major Andre passed the night
while on his celebrated journey, but in
the course of improvements made by
Mr. Rockefeller this house has been
torn down.
Mr. Rockefeller has built an observa-
ton tower 100 feet high on the highest
point of Kaakout, from which a mag
nificent view can be had. To the
south can be seen Long Island Sound,
to the west the Hudson and the Paii-
sades, beyond which tower the Ram
apo mountains.

won ANS EDUCATION.
Notably Exemplified at the Chicago
Auditorium.

Chicago, April 1.-Women's higher
education was notably exemplified
within the walls of the Auditorium to-
night on the occasion of the quarterly
convention of the University of Chi
cago. On the invitation of President
r. Harper the unprecedented honor of
delivering the corvocation address was
given to a woman. and an English
woman, the Countess of Aberdeen, wife
of the governor general of Canada,
both of whom are well and favorably
known here because of their work in
the interest of Irish industries and
Irish people at the Worlds fair.
Lady Aberdeens audience numbered
5000 men and women. She delivered a
thoughtful address on The University
and its Effect on the Home"
The countess was received with
ripple of applause as she entered by
the side of President Harper. who read
a telegram of regret from the Earl of
Aberdeen.
Lady Aberdeen began by remarking
upon the day. adding that on account
of the unusual honor accorded her she
had asked herself whether or not she
was the presidents April fool day
joke. She then referred to the irrepar-
able loss which the world had suffered
in the death of Professor Henry Drum
mond, who had been one of her prede-
cessors at the convocation exercises.
Continuing, Lady Aberdeen said:
1.-The home has not reaped that har-
vest from the benefits of a university
education which might have been ex-
pected, which it might have claimed
for it's share. The average home is not
yet fitted to get all the possible good
from university education. 1 am told
that one reason for the non-success of
the university student is that he comes
unprepared for such training as they
get in our universities. He comes and
gathers knowledge. rather than Gull
ture. He does not gain true culture
nor scholarship. He learns at home on
his return from college that persons
and not things are talked about; that
newspapers and not books are the sta
pie things. and that the material hard
things and not ideals are the chief OBJ
jects to be pursued.
1.-The whole face of social life and
philanthropy has been transformed by
the rightful position accorded in recent
years TO women in the sphere of edu-
cation. Women found their usefulness.
They have developed the heart and
mind of women. They have taught her
to value the difference between des-
potic and democratic government: to
trust in and support one another. The
women'S movement in this country has
had ample scope to develop and mature
itself Man was not born TO live alone,
and still less was woman. 1t may be
well enough to have council of moth
ers. but do the fathers count for so
little in the home that their counsel is
not needed?
THE revival of the home must be
the new watch word, not the narrow
cold. selfish home, but one in which the
family must be the loving center of
mutual help. and from which all
healthy influences must flow. uni
versity which omits this from it's ideal
will not deserve we'll of its country and
IF the world

No Bread in Crete.

Athens, April IA party of Italians
who volunteered for service with the
insurgents in Crete, and who have been
for weeks in the island, arrived here
today, having run the blockade of the
foreign warshiDs. They assert that
there is no bread in Crete, except in
the camp of Colonel Vassos. The in
habitants live. they say, chiefly on
olives, milk and mutton. There is no
military organization among the insur-
gents. They leave their homes when
operations are proceeding in which it is
necessary they take part and after the
fighting is over they return. The vol
unteers further say that the real head
of the Greek troops is Colonel Limbriti,
who directs all the movements of the
Insurgents.

THE BERMUDA.
British Cruiser Partridge Fires on a
Vessel Believed to Have Been the
Filibuster.

Nassau, N. p, April 1.-The British
cruiser Partridge. Captain Hanigen
commanding, reports that on Sunday
last she fired on suspicious vessel that
resembled the old filibuster Bermuda.
The Partridge started on a cruise on
March 25. and early on Sunday she
sighted the steamship which she at
first thought was West Indian fruiter-
The vessel refused to show her colors
and the Partridge fired two blank shots
and then solid shot at the steamship.
The range was too long for the shot
to be effective, and the Partridge
started in pursuit. The cruiser being
the slower vessel, the suspicious steam
ship escaped.
The Partridge returned to Watling's
Island to look after a schooner that
was with the steamship, but she, too,
had escaped. 1t is supp osed that the
vessels were part of filibustering eX
petition that started from Nassau for
Cuba. The Partridge will leave again
today for another search after them.

AGAINST PERU.
United States Has Added Another
Grievance

Washington, April LIN addition to
the Maccord case, the United States
has another grievance against Peru.
Minister Mckenzie at Lima, Peru, has
been instructed by Secretary Sherman,
to demand the immediate release of
Mate Ramsay. an American seaman of
the steamer Cambrian Monarch, who
was arrested several months ago at
Callao, on a charge of disorderly con-
duct while ashore, and has just been
sentenced to one year in Jail. The
ground for the demand is that Ram
say was not treated in accord with ar
ticle XVI of our convention of 1870
with Peru, which provided that citi-
Zens of either country arrested in the
other shall in all cases be brought
before a magistrate or other legal au-
thority for examination within "a hours
after arrest and if not so examined the
accused shall forthwith be discharged
from custody
These conditions were not fulfilled at
the time of Ramsay's arrest and he
was kept locked up without examina-
ton for a week in spite of the protests
of the counsel, who was sustained bv
Secretary Olney. The demand for his
release is now made peremDtory and
Ramsay will be vigorously backed by
this government in a claim for damages
against Peru.
New York, April 1.-THE HeraId's
special cable from Lima. Peru, says the
court of appeals yesterday revoked the
original sentence of one years morrison
ment passed upon the American soldier
Ramsey in violation of the treaty with
the United States. and condemned him
to four months Imprisonment from
January y. Mr.. Mckenzie, United States
minister. has all along insisted on action
in this case in obedience to instructions
received from Washington during the
time Mr. Olney was secretary of state
and reiterated by the present administra-
ton.

COLONEL FRED GRANT.
He Can Be, If He So Chooses, the
Next Assistant Secretary of War.

Washington. April Colonel Fred
erick Dent Grant of New York called
on President Mckinley at the White
House today by invitation, and was
rendered the position of assistant sec
rotary OF war.
He had a talk with the president of
nearly an hours duration, and left
President Mckinley with the under
standing that definite answer to the
tender would be given today or to-
morrow.
Colonel Grant was disinclined to take
the position, but his conversation with
the president may have the effect Of
causing him to change his mind.
When seen at the Arlington hotel this
afternoon he would not talk about the
matter in anv phase.
