TO INDICATE JOS. CHAMBERLAIN.
DR.. Jameson Tells the Parliament
ary Committee About the Raids.

London, March 2G.-At the session today
Of the parliamentary committee ihduirlns
into the Transvaal raid the secretary OF
state for the colonies, Joseph Champer-
lain, continued his examination OF W. +.
Schreiner. who was the attorney general
of Cape Colony at the time Cecil Rhodes
was premier. All the questions put indi-
Gated a desire to vindicate Mr. Chamber
lain's policy in the Transvaal.
Following Mr.. Schrelner DR.. Jameson
told the story Of his movements, when
has frequently been rehearsed IN print
He sought to justify his actions by point
ing out the critical condition of the Ult-
landers in the Transvaal prior 10 the
raid. DR.. jameson exculpated Hnoues
from the responsibility of having oruereu
the final move of the troops across the
border, saying he had managed the step
on his own account.
During his testimony DR.. Jameson SAID:
I'm the middle of 1894 Mr.. Rhodes and
John Hays Hammond, the American en-
glneer, were with me In Matabelelanu,
when the position of the Transvaal and
the grievances of the Uitlanders were
freely discussed. Hammond asserted
that unless radical change was made
there would be a rising of the people
of Johannesburg.
Subsequently in 1895. 1 revisited Jo-
hannesburg and found the people deter
mined to bring matters to an issue. me
leaders concluded that the only way 10
obtain reforms was to change the au-
mlnistration of the Transvaal, and the
safest means of reaching this would be
to have a sufficient force at Johannese-
burg to induce President Kruger to take
a plebiscite of the whole population, TO
decide who was to be president
Therefore, l obtained the letter signed
by the leaders, win which 1.-THE commit
tee is familiar, and it was agreed that
simultaneously with the rising in Jo-
hannesburg at the end of December. l
was to start
Under my arrangements with the Jo-
hannesburgers l felt l had no alterna-
tive but to proceed"
The statement concludes:
mo communication whatever was re-
celved from Rhodes or from any one at
Cape Town directing or authorizing my
force to move to johannesburg. 1 acted
entirely on my own judgment. Major
Heaney did not bring me message from
Rhodes"
Replying to Sir Campbell, liberal, jam
eson said he knew he had not done the
right thing, because he had not succeed
ed, adding that If he had succeeded he
knew he would have been forgiven. The
committee then adjourned.

QUEENS JUBILEE MAY BE TAME
An Excellent Effort to Establish an
Order OF Home Helpers.

Ottawa, Can, March $3.50 far there are no
indications that the Dominion proposes to work
itself into fever OF enthusiasm over the cell
ebration OF the queens jubilee. Suggestions
have been made here and there concerning
ways and methods by which this portion OF
her maJesty's possessions might demonstrate
the loyalty OF the people In this eventful year:
but they have been of spasmodic nature and
have not been prompted by people having any
particular standing and weight and have fail
ed to receive any considerable announcement.
Perhaps the most pretentous scheme Is that
of Lady Aberdeen, who proposes the founding
OF an order of nurses and homes to be known
as the Victorian Order of Home Helpers 1t is
proposed to raise minimum fund Of $500 900
or as much more as may be forthcoming for
the purpose of constructing buildings In diff
ferent centers and putting the scheme upon its
feet; the understanding being that the diff
ferent localities here furnish sufficient money
to keep the order on a substantial basis. I'm
der the scheme, which has not yet been fully
outlined by Lady Aberdeen, about so homes
and a hundred home helpers nurses are
allotted to Manitoba and the northwest and to
maintain these would require a yearly subscrip-
ton of some $50, 000-something after the plan
of the prince Of Wales perpetual endowment
for the London hospitals The distribution of
subscription lists has been commenced but
the indications are that the proposition will
not take like widtre.

New York, March pr. G. Dun & CO. s
Review will say: Rarely have the mar
kets sustained such surprises as they
have received of late with SO little loss.
Foreign conditions and London alarms,
the collapse Of the iron ore combination,
the destructive floods In the Mississippi
valley, and the decision of the supreme
court against railway associations. have
been used TO the utmost, but not even in
railways has the result been important
Were all associations of railroads to cease
1t would yet be In the power of capital

rate cutting If 1t chose.
With confidence that better times and
larger business are coming, men are less
disposed every day to throw away good
Investments and every fact showing that
prices of products are low is regarded as
a guarantee against much further de-
cline. In all industrials, also, the num-
Der of mills and shops and hands at
work gradually increase.
The grain markets have lost without
reason the gain they made without rea-
son the previous week. Wheat supplies
are running out, but nobody believes that
there Is a coming famine before June
when the harvesting of southern wheat
will begin.

CURRENCY AND BANKING REFORM.
Committeeman Peabody. Irish and
Hanna Cali on Speaker Reed.

Washington, March 26.-The members
of the committee on legislation appointed
at the indianapolis monetary convention
last summer called on Speaker Reed to
day and talked with him concerning legis-
lation for currency and banking reform.
Inc spokesman of the delegation were
George Foster Peabody of New York
John 2. Irish of San Francisco and H. H.
Hanna of Minneapolis. They spoke of
the desirability for the passage of a bill
authorizing the president to appoint a
commission to investigate the banking
ana currency system of the country and
TO recommend changes. If any bill en-
podying system acceptable to the bust
ness interests of the country could be
passed, they would indorse such legisla-
tlon without creating any commission.
Inc need for changes in the present bank
ing system which would insure a more
plentiful and elastic supply of circulation
LOT the farming districts remote from
cities was the principal point they urged
In support of their movement.
Speaker Reed told the committee the
passage of the tariff bill was the first and
principal work cut out for this session.
Congress moved faster than the people i'm
matters of legislation, he said, and when
public sentiment became crystalized in ia
vor of any particular form of financial
legislation congress would be apt to re-
spond with little delay. If the people de-
manded changes in the banking system
ana brought pressure to bear on CON
sress, they would secure such changes.
