Propose That Great Britain Give Up
Her suxerain Rights.
London, Aug. 25.-London is still
waiting for the publication of Presi-
dent Krueger's dispatch. the full text
of which is now before the cabinet.
The Reuter- dispatches this morning
persist again in forecasting the reply
of the Transvaal government, which
it declares, refuses absolutely to con-
sent to the proposals for joint COM
mittee, but offers instead five years
franchise law, a vote for president,
and eight new seats in the volksraad
for the Rand.
New conditions, however, are ex-
acted. Kruger demands that Great
Britain give up for all time her
suzerainty rights over the Transvaal.
The other questions are to be sub
mitted to arbitration, but not to for
eign power. Great Britain, also, must
agree not to use the present interior
ence as a precedent.
It is hardly credible that the Boer
government should have had the
effrontery to propose doing away with
the British suzerainty, yet, in view OF
former proposals by DR.. Leyds and
Reitz, published in the blue book, the
demand is barely possible.
It is absolutely certain that Great
Britain cannot accept the loss OF
suzerainty over the Transvaal, Mr..
Chamberlain's final decision on that
point being most definite.

EarthOuRke Echoes"

Mr.. John Milne gives this name to
certain vibrations, which his delicate
instruments have revealed, running
through the crust of the earth after
the occurrence of distant earthquakes.
The apparent symmetry of these pulls
atoms, resembling the rhythm of mu-
steal sounds, leads him to suggest that
an earthquake may be "a blow or
blows, which come to an end with
musical vibrations inside the world"
The blows probably come from the
slipping or falling Of rock within the
earth Mr.. Milne. at his observatory
on the Isle of Wight, photographs
vibrations of his seismographic pendu-
lums, induced by earthquakes many
thousands of miles away, and in a re-
cent letter he speaks of "a magnificent
set of waves which arrived from Mex
leo on the night of Jan. 4th."

War Taxes VIII Stand.

Washington, Aug. 25.-Secretary
Gage does not believe the increase OF

A bond issue is not contemplated, but
the increase of the army makes 1t GER
tain the president will not recommend
q reduction of the war taxes. OF course
there will be an upward turn In the
expense account now that the army is
being steadily enlarged, but the present
revenues are believed to be ample. Last
year there was an increase OF 100000
900 in the internal revenue receipts,
and II there is no falling off in the
receipts there will be plenty of money
to meet all expenses without resorting
to a bond issue.

Rennes, Aug 25.-The fourth sitting
o. the third week of the second trial
by court-martial Of Capt. Alfred Drey-
fus on charge of treason at the Lycee
began at $50 o'clock this morning with
the reading of the deposition of Penot.
No special incident marked the open
ing of the days proceedings.
Attorney Labor, leading counsel for
the defense, and Nine. Labori were
present in court Wednesday.
AS Labori was entering the court he
was informed by newspaper man that
Gen. Roget had received documents
from Major Count Esterllazy, who is
now in London. Counsel was much in
terested and CLEANED all the inforna-
ton possible. On the arrival in court
of Gen. Roget it was noticed that he
carried a bulky envelope containing the
document referred to.
The session of the court Wednesday
was comparatively uneventful. The
dispositions were not productive Of any
really thrilling incidents. The sys-
tematic production of the flimsiest
trash, which the prosecution deems
profitable to irf1ict on the Judges and
which the latter accept as evidence,
was proceeded with. Much Of the RI
diculous testimony of the morning was
devoted to an attempt to blast Drey-
fus' private character, though when
Labori and Demange had finished with
the witnesses their bubbles Of title
tattle were badly pricked.
Much of the time was occupied in
reading the testimony of Esterhazy
and Miss Pays before the court Of cas-
sation, during which many OF the au-
dience left the court.
