II Apparently Being Prepared For
In the Transvaal-Reply to Note
Will Refuse to Concede British
Su.erainty.

Pretoria, South Africa, Sept. i6.-The
climax in the Transvaal's relations with
Great Britain is now close at hand, and
not one in q thousand of the Beers to-
day believes that war can be averted.
The Transvaars reply to Mr.. Chamber
lain's dispatch will be polite, but it will
be an uncompromising refusal to con-
cede British suzerainty over the South
African republic. Decisive action is as
sured.
Remittance Will BE Stubborn.
Preparations for stubborn resistance
are proceeding incessantly. Every At
rikander is making ready for the strug-
gle. 1t is true that the government six
months ago would scarcely have limited
at such constitutional changes and con-
cessions to the uitlanders as stand
granted to-day; but the limit has been
reached. Every man of fighting age in
the best families in the land, all the
members of the executive and the volks-
raad, along with seven sons and SO
grandsons of President Kruger, are
ready to-day to take the field in sup
port of the governments ultimatum.
The Reply.
London, Sept. 16.-A special dispatch
from Pretoria says: The Transvaal's
reply will be on the following lines:
The Transvaal adheres to the seven
years franchise law, but is willing to
consider, and if necessary, to adopt any
suggestions Great Britain may make
with regard to the working of the law.
In regard to the other points of Mr..
Chamberl1ns dispatch, the Transvaal
boldly stands by the London conven-
ton. It is said that the reply is
couched in polite terms. State Secre-
tary Reitz, in the course of an inter-
view, expressed some doubt as to
whether any alteration would be made
i'll the existing franchise law, but said
he believed way should and could be
found to establish an arbitration court.
AS to the suzerainty, the least said the
soonest mended, remarked the state
secretary.
. An Acute Phase.
The morning paper editorials regard
the crisis as having reached its most
acute phase. The Daily News says:
1--WE refuse to believe that President
Kruger is SO foolish ~as to reject Mr..
Chamberlain's moderate demands"
The Daily Chronicle, which appeals
again to Mr.. Kruger. ''to accept while
it is yet time and before England's
terms become harder" says: IA refusal
of the present terms will involve the
ruin of the state over which President
Kruger presides. The British govern
ment have played their first and Sec
ond moves in the game, and must per-
force play the third and then the fourth.
If Mr.. Kruger haggles, the sinister con-
ditions in South Africa will grow.
worse until catastrophe is reached"
Other papers talk of the imminence of
war, and all the dispatches from South
Africa continue to describe the military
preparations on both sides.
