Pretoria, Sept. 9-In the first raad
yesterday morning debate was resumed
on the Interpolation Of the govern
ment respecting the concentration of
British troops on the border and the
stoppage of ammunition consigned to
the Transvaal The house adjourned
shortly before noon. after adopting
unanimously the following resolution:
THE volksraad. having considered
that friendly correspondence is still
passing between the two governments.
that the concentration of troops In
great numbers near the border has a
detrimental and restless effect on the
inhabitants of the state and that the
Transvaal has lived in friendship and
peace with all nations and desires to
continue to live In such friendship and
peace. now declares its regret at the
fact of concentration and expresses the
opinion that. in the case of eyentuah-
ties, which might lead to enmity or
war between the two governments. the
cause would not lie with the republic.
"As regards the stoppage of ammuni-
tion in Delagoa bay, the volksraad
trusts that the government will act
according to circumstances.
THE raad further resolves to drop
the matter of the concentration Of
troops on the border for the present,
until the government shall supply fur
ther Information to the raad, although
the information obtained is unsatisfac-
tory. Nevertheless. and with view
to the results of the negotiations which
are pending, the raad declares itself
determined in the meantime to main
tain the rights and independence Of the
republic"
The government has issued formal
announcement that its last dispatch
was intended as a acceptance Of the
joint inquiry. The mistaken interpre-
tati6n arose through confusion Of
ideas.
Both President Kruger and Wee
President Joubert declaee that theyGye
determined to work for peaceful setss

! received telegram from Pretoria as
suring me that the Transvaal govern
ment quite understands the position
regarding the peace treaty in England,
and is in no wise misled by speeches
or demonstrations"
The meeting of the British council
yesterday was marked by absolute
unanimity, and in spite of lack OF
official information and in the presence
of much corroborative evidence that
the situation is scarcely less strained,
there is no signs of any intention to
convene parliament and no immedi-
ate necessity exists to call out the re-
serves. The aspect is decidedly peace
full.
The appeals from the government of
Natal, however, will result in the dis
patch of large body of troops to
Natal and Cape Colony. In addition
to the troops from India brigade Of
four battalions of infantry is under
orders to start for South Africa i'm
tAIxt 1,1- nd
from Mediterranean stations. The
sailing of the Castle liner Harlech
Castle has been cancelled. and the
steamer will probably be employed to
transport these troops.
A semi-official statement comes
from Pretoria through Cape Town to
the effect that the Transvaal govern
ment has explained to the British
colonial agent, Mr.. Conyngham
Greene, that its last dispatch was
meant as an acceptance of the pro-
posed joint inquiry.
The Cape Town correspondent Of
The Daily Mail says: There is no
doubt that Mr.. Schreiner (the Cape
premier) and the Afrikander leaders
have thrown in their lots with Sir AL
fred Milner, and this fact explains the
irritation displayed in the volksraad in
the debate on the interpretations. 1t il
reported from Bloemfontein that ball
lot will be taken throughout the
Orange Free State to decide whether
the government shall remain neutral
or shall assist the Transvaal."
According to dispatch to The Daily
Mail from Brussels DR.. w, ]. Leyes,
the plenipotentiary of the South At
rican republic to the European govern
ment, does not believe there will be
war between Great Britain and the
Transvaal, but the Beers will fight to
the end, he says, if an attempt is made
on their independence.
