Cecil Rhodes Sees No Difference Re
tween Crete and the TranxxaaI

Cecil Rhodes Sees No Difference Re-
tween Crete and the TransvaaI
The committee appointed by the British
parliament to inquire into the Transyaal
raid resumed Its sessions yesterday in West
minister Hall, London.
Dr. Leander S. Jameson, the leader of the
expedition, appeared for the first time.
The Prince of Wales. on entering the hall.
shook hands with Col. Cecil Rhodes The
latter, when the proceedings opened was
recalled to the witness stand and was
questioned by Sir Henry Campbell Banner
man. secretary of state for war in the late
Rosebery cabinet. and member of parlia-
ment for the Stirling district.
Inc only interest awakened in the cross-
examination was aroused by a statement
from Col. Rhodes that he did not see any
dlHerence between the cases of Crete and
the Iransvaal, except that the Cretans,
VINO nave the popular sympathy of Eng
land. are foreigners claiming civil rights.
whereas In the Transvaal 1t wassour coun-
trymen who were seeking civil rights"
Replying to Mr. Sydney C. Buxton, liberal
Col. Rhodes reiterated his statement that
the agitation at johannesburg would con-
tinue until popular rights were granted to
the inhabitants. 1t vas impossible ne
added. that a small minority of burghers
Shouid govern the majority of newcomers
In the Transvaal. Col. Rhodes also said
that the charges imposed by the Transyaal
government upon mining rendered the poor
reefs non-payable.
The witness then reverted to the Cretan
troubles, and said:
lf l give arms to the Cretans, am
TO be imprisoned for SO doing?'
answering question of Mr.. Edward
Blake. Irish nationalist member of par
lament. Col. Rhodes said:
Il have been told that l let Johannes
burg In for this trouble. but when l look
at 1t. all the letters and kilograms, I come
to the conclusion that 1t was rather Jo-
hannesburg that let me in. The Johannes
burgers tried the reform road prior to at
tempting revolution. They petitioned Pres
ident Kruger. whose promises, however.
were not kept"
Referring to the noted conversation be-
tween himself and Bobby White" Col.
Rhodes said:
tiop. I said: If Great Britain decided to
remain. should stop any foreign power
from coming between Khartoum and
Uganda
Il answered: OF course not: but 1t is
not the governments policy that you should
lie on your backs and eat three meals q
day. You ought 10 ascend the Nile and
make 1t impossible for the French to cross
Il did not know White would apply my
remark to something else. 1t shows how
careful you ought to be In what you say"
Further questioned regarding the raid,
Colonel Rhodes asserted that his determin-
alton to proceed to extreme measures was
reached in conjunction with the leaders at
johannesburg. 1t was intended to change
the government. owing to the hopelessness
OF obtaining redress for the grievances.
A reference 10 the Matabeie war called
out from the witness the remark:
Fortunately tor you. you have not had

sands of dollars are in Harry Corbett's
hands to be bet on his brother at odds of
10 to Z. The Fitzsimmons men. however,
want 10 to 8. George Green will leave for
Carson this evening and continue his train

What Fitx Says.

Speaking of his decision not to agree to
any rules prior to the date of the fight,
such as proposed in Chicago by Siler. Fitz-
simmons said: why should 1 agree to
rules at this date to let Corbett practice
from my dictation? What fool 1 should
be to lay down rules for him to study He
can study QEeensberry rules, same as
am doing, and under which we are sup
posed to fight. Any change which Mr..
Siler makes at the ringside will be re-
spected, no doubt, but for the time being
QIeersberry rules are all that either 1 or
CorDett have to study and commit to MEM
ory."
Siler and Fitzsiinmons have had talk
upon the subject of rules and the latter
must have unbosomed himself to at least
some extent. but Siler was reticent. They
will meet again today and talk the ma tier
over once more and this undoubtedly has
something to do with Silers present reti
cence. for he may have hopes that Fitz-
simmons will withdraw bis objections and
stand by the stereotyped rules.
Women will be admitted to the fight Dan
Stuart through his representative, made.
the following announcement last night: II
Will admit women to the fight simply be-
cause some Of the most prominent men in
the state have indicated a desire to bring

good deal of attention. Mr.. Gross was
formerly manager for Eleanor Duse.
He came here first with the elder Sal

many interesting experiences. He ls en-
thusiastic in his praise OF the genius OF
Eleanor Duse, and thinks she is the great

title and the story it narrates OF travel IN
foreign lands for so small a sum of money,
he said The account was literally true.
