With the Orange Free State.
BLOEMFONTEIN, Orange Free State
March 12.-President Kruger Of the Trans
vaal Republic has arrived here with the
view of arranging for a closer union be-
tween the Transvaal and the Orange Free
State. He was entertained at a public
luncheon, and in replying to the eulogistic
toast of President Steyn of the Orange Free
State, he said he was not there to contro-
vert the queens rights. Time, he added,
would show he had always defended her
majesty {cheers), and he had told his peo-
pie to respect her. He expressed the hope
that the two republics would form indis-
soluble ties He never, however. had any
idea of the Free State being absorbed by
the Transvaal
Continuing. President Kruger said he
knew he had to abide by the London con-
vention. The queen was a troublesome
woman. and it was therefore necessary to
deal with the question, of the union with
utmost caution. He hoped some day to see
a union Of the whole Of Africa.

fused to receive the child without an
order from the proper source.
Later developments show that the
old gentleman was Rev. John H. Dan
iels of San Jose, retired clergyman
and an agent of the Home-Finding So
ciety of California, whose headquar-
tiers are in San Jose. He took the baby
with him on the train, leaving here at
3 o'clock on Saturday, and told Con-
ductor Wells, who was in charge of the
train, that he had already found a good
home for his little charge.
The baby was only about six weeks
old, but was laughing and Growing all

to be we'll taken care of by the old gem
tleman. Conductor Wells said last
night that the old gentleman had trav-
eled with him before in charge of chill
dren, and always seemed to be very at
tentive to them.
The society never gives out informa-
ton as to where its charges are placed,
unless such course becomes absolutely
necessary, SO that no stain can be
placed on the child by outside parties.
1t was also understood that all Mr.
Daniels required was temporary care
Of the child till he could take it down on

HARRISON GRAY Otis
WILL NOT BE ASSISTANT SEC
RETARY OF WAR.
The Decision is Reached Because Cali
fOrnia Has Already Cabinet
Member.

| WASHINGTON, March 21-Colonel
+, Harrison Gray Otis of California will
not be Assistant Secretary of War. This
conclusion was reached after a CONVEX
sation in the Cabinet room between the
| President, Secretary of War Alger and
| Colonel Otis. The decision was reached
not because Colonel Otis was opposed
by the international Typographical
Union, and not because he would have
been unacceptable to Secretary Alger,
but because of his geographical loca-
ton. Had Colonel Otis been resident
of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Nevada
any State in fact that is not repre-
scented in President McKinley's Cabinet
he would probably have been appointed
to succeed John B. Doe the First AS
sistant Secretary of War, whose resig-
nation has already been accepted.
Colonel Otis was Secretary Ayers sec
ond choice for the place, his first being
man from Michigan, whom the Secre-
tary asked the President as a personal
favor to appoint. President Mckinley
informed Secretary Alger that he would
be very glad to honor the request, but
he could not consistently do so, as it
would not do to give too much promi-
nence to one State.
Colonel Otis is a personal friend of
the President. They served together in
the Twenty-thrd Ohio Regiment in
the civil war, and in later years they
were fast friends. Several times with
in the past few years Colonel Otis has
visited President Mckinley at his Can
ton home. When the fight for delegates
hai,
Otis succeeded in capturing several del
egates for Major Mckinley, and later
in the campaign. after the ST. Louis
Convention, he worked earnestly for
Mckinley and the Republican ticket
Major Mckinley when elected eX
tended an invitation to Colonel Otis to
call at Canton, which he did some
weeks before the President came on to
Washington. AT that time the Colonel
indicated a desire to be Assistant Sec
rotary of War, saying that the place
would be acceptable to him, and that
he thought he would be good assist
ant in view of his previous military
training Later the President requested
Colonel Otis to be in Washington
shortly after the inauguration. He
came on here a week ago and has been
here since. If the appointment had
been made it would have been as q
personal appointment of the Presi-
dents, although Colonel Otis was
strongly backed by the Republican
members of the California delegation.
Just before leaving the President the
Consulship to Calcutta was offered
Colonel Otis. This he politely refused,
saying that it would take him abroad,
where he could not give close attention
to his private business. Colonel Otis
left for California, via New York, last
night

HOUSE LOOTED LAST NIGHT.
Burglars RanSaCk the Residence Of
MakCuS Graf.
They Got Away, But Left a Fire
Burning in a Bureau
Drawer.

Burglars ransacked and robbed the
residence of M. Graf at GIG Ninth
street last night while he and his wife
Pythian Castle.
They also came near burning the
house, either accidentally or purposely.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Graf returned
from Pythian Castle shortly after 8
o'clock they were unable to open the
front door of the house, which is on the
second floor and is reached by long
flight of steps. While they were at the
door they heard a racket inside, and
then realized that there was a burglar
in the house and possibly more than
one.
The alarm was given and several men
collected in the yard and surrounded
the house, ready to shoot the first bur-
glar that attempted to escape. Word
was also sent to the police station, and
Officer Talbot responded
When the officer reached the house
the men on guard were sure they had
the burglar or burglars corraled inside.
Talbot got ladder and assembled to a
window in the second story. He saw
through the curtains a Pickering light
inside, but supposed it was gas jet or
oil lamp. When he got the window
open, however, he saw a bureau drawer
on the floor of the bedroom with it's
contents all ablaZe. The drawer was
thrown out into the yard and a disas-
trous fire prevented.
Talbot then made a search of the
house for the burglars, but found they
had escaped by the rear door, through
which they entered the house This
they had pried open with a Jimmy"
Everything in the house had been
overturned, but just what was stolen
could not be ascertained, though it is
understood that some jewelry is miss
ing.
On the floor of the bedroom Officer
Talbot found the Jimmy" which the
burglars had forgotten in their haste
to escape. 1t was a rough instrument,
made from an iron rod about five
eghths of an inch thick and beaten
thin on one end.
The fire in the bureau drawer was
probably started by accident. The bur-
glars were doubtless overhauling it's
contents when disturbed, and dropped
a match or candle into it. Had they
wished to burn the house they would
probably have set fire to the bed or the
well-illed clothes closet
Still, it is by no means certain they
did not set out to burn the place.
