Administrator of the Chartered
Company Before the Parlia-
mentary Committee.
He Reads a Statement as to the
Cause of the Jameson
Raid,
And Admits He COuntenanced
the Movement But Did Not
Oy,irr It.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE committee
appointed by parliament to inquire into
the Transvaal raid met in Westminster
hall. While the general public was ex-
cluded, the hall was crowded with

30 reporters and others interested in
the inquiry, including the Prince Of
Wales, the Earl of Selborne, the Duke
of Abercorn. Canon Wilberforce, James
Bryce, M. p, Munroe Ferguson, M. p,
Sir Ellis Ashmead- Bartlett. NJ. P, and
other men of prominence.
Cecil Rhodes, when called, read q
long statement which, he said, covered
the whole ground. and recited tho
grievances of the foreigners against the
Transvaal government. "After long
efforts" the statement continued, "the
people there, despairing of redress by
constitutional means, resolved to seek
by extra constitutional means such
change of government as could give the
majority of population, possessing more
than half the land, nine.tenths of the
wealth and paying nineteen-twentieths
of the taxes, a share in the administra
ton.
He Assisted tho Movement.
II sympathized with them, and as a
land owner, was largely interested. Az
a citizen of Cape Colony, 1 suffered
under the persistently u~nfriendly atti
tude Of the Transvaal towards Cape
Colony.
Il assisted in the movement with
purse and influence. and, acting within
my rights, placed troops under DR..
Jameson's orders on the borders OF
Transvaal, prepared to act under Ger
tain circumstances. / did not tell the
Chartered company in London any
thing in rgard to the raid. Dr.. Jane
son went in without my authority. All
my actions were greatly influenced by
my belief that the policy of the present
Transvaal government was to Introduce
the influence of another power Ger
many and thereby complicate the stu.
