JUST at present their is no person at
tracing more attention than President
Kruger of the Transyaal republic. He is
an old man, so years of age, but he re-
tains his immense strength of which sur
prising anecdotes are related. He has
been practically president since 1881.
He is not we'll educated, but has a great
amount of hard sense, and is determined
to a degree of obstinacy. He does not
dislike England, but will not brook her
dictation particularly when she demands
that the irresponsible element which the
mines have attracted shall share in the
government. Though president in name
he is practically dictator. Kruger will
not submit while he has a resource left

ENGLANDS war with the Beers is not
popular in that country. The English
conscience is not so hardened as to lose
sensitiveness and the people do not hest
tate to criticise the government for the
part it has taken in an unjustifiable war
On the whole, this form of purified pa
triotism will make nations somewhat
more conscientious when inclined to
plunge into war. Criticism of our Phil
ippine war has done much to wipe out
the impression that might is right

were both men of prodigious strength,
indifferent science and bulldog tenacity.
They exhibited wonderful endurance
and this added to the brutality of the
affair. Such exhibitions are apt to bring
sparring exhibitions into disrepute.

A FILIPINO PROBLEM
How to Prevent the InSuI-
 gents Obtaining Supplies.
The Blockade VIII Not Do, Ina Smuoh As if Would Be an Admission Of a State Of War and an Excuse for Recognition of inc Rebels.

Washington, Sept. 5.-The matter Of making an effective blockade in the Philippines and especially around the island of Luzon so as to prevent the insurgents from obtaining ammunition and supplies is giving the army con- siderable concern. It has not been deemed feasible to proclaim a blockade as it would indicate a state of war and possibly open a way to recognition of the insurgents. Whether or not it is feasible to attack. subdue and garrison all the ports of LuzCn which might serve as ports of supply for the FiH- pinos has net yet been determined.
 Heretofore there have not been suf- ficieut troops in Luzon to make this possible, and the question will now arise whether the troops had best be spared for this purpose. The president las been advised that the navy should be utilized fer the purpose of prevent ing the introduction of ccntraband of war and supplies fer the Filipinos, and that at every port a naVas vessel should be stationed.

THE COST OF STEEL
Likely fO Delay Building Of Naval
 Vessels.

Washington, Sspt 5.-The navy is beginning to feel seriously the effect of the heavy advance in the steel mar ket. Today the ship building firm of Lllly X Co. of Boston asked for a years extension from October 1, in the building of the torpedo boats DeLong and Blakeley now under construction in their yards. The -Nixons at Eliza 'bethport N. J., who are building the torpedo boats Nicholson and O'Brien, have stated to LLlyy officials that it is impossible for them ito get forgings and struts, and it is expected that they will ask for an extension.
 There are twelve torpedo boats and destroyers under construction in the various yards and all are affected by the ''steel famine' and the heavy prices, So it is expected Shat exten- sions will be asked on all these crafts.

 The latest news received in this city from various points in South Africa is vague and contradictory. Nothing more is known regarding the status of the negotia- tions between Great Britain and the Transvaal than that learned yester- day.

DEMAND FOR SHALL. SILVER
All inc Minis EndeavOrfna to Meet
 inc Demand.

Washington, Sept. 5.-"Dimes, quar-
 ters and half dollars are being turned out by all the hints as rapidly as they
 can be produced said an officer of the treasury today, "the demand for fractional currency and silver dollars
 being unprecedented. The request does not come from one section of the country, but from every section. As fast as the coin can be minted it is shipped to these who have called for it. Usually the demand for this cur rency does not begin until the fall of the year, but this summer orders for large quantities have been coming in for more than four weeks. It is esti-. mated that the amount of orders re eeived at the treasury department will average over s6O,OOO in fractional cur rency a day"
 Treasurer Roberts said that the de- mand was due to the activity of busi- ness. An order was issued to the Cal ifornia mint on the first of August, he said, to turn out S150,000 worth of dimes, quarters and halves per month until further notice, just for the use of the Pacific coast.
 Another thing mentioned by Treas urer Roberts was the increased de- mand for pennies in the west and south, where but comparatively few of these coins have previously been used. He attributes the increased use of pen mes to the war revenue act, which re- quires the use of internal revenue stamps on telegrams. checks. etc.

CENSUS ENUMERATORS
Applicants fO Secure, Jobs Must Be
 on Some Congressman's Lisf.

Washington, Sept. -Notwithstand- | ing that many persons underswent ex- aminations here in the hope of re ceiving appointments to the census
 office force, only to be informed that they could not be named unless they
 were on the quota of some members of
 the congress, examinations continue to
 gently in Boston under conditions sim
 liar to those that prevailed in this
 city. Of seventy-siX applicants who
 presented themselves only twenty five
 passed. Whatever merit applicants
 may prove to have, unless they are also on the ''list's of persons recom-
 mended bysa senator or a member of
 the house, they will remain out of the
 service. But it is asserted that the candidates offered by members of con-
 gress do not always possess sufficient education or ability to justify their se- lections. It is considered necessary that the clerks shall be able to read. write and perform simple examples in arithmetic. Every applicant ought to be able to work out percentage fer instance. That some of the congres- sional subjects offered to the director of the census cannot read and are not able to write much, is assumed from one application recently received. It was endorsed by a representative and with the assertion, in the writing of the representative who desired the ap- pointment: "The applicant MT. F---, is highly educated and is eminently competent to fill any position under your Cfice.' Hon. William R. Merriam, Secretary |

 Captain Boyd declares positively that the picture is a faithful portrait of the Camp Verde murderer. It is possible the identification may induce the New Mexico authorities to turn the prisoner over to sYavapai justice.
