Murat Halstead, the Cincinnati Editor
 Threatened With Violence

Cincinnati O., August 31.-Editor Murat Halstead lectured tonight by invitation be- fore the Economic club which meets in the Vine Street Congregational church. The audience was miscellaneous, in addition to the members of the club, which is largely anti-imperialistic. MT. Hastead's subject was the Philippines After the lecture, ac- cording to the rules of the club, MT. Hal stead was piled with questions. One of the questioners, after he had been answered. made the remark: q hope Otis will be kept in and keep on blundering till he and the whole army are driven into the sea or captured.'
 MT. Halstead. said: "A man with those sentiments is a traitor to his country"
 Several men jumped up and remarked: :: 'Two-thirds of this audience think that way!'
 Mr. Halstead replied: Whoever thinks that way is a traitor"
 Then there was rush down the hall with raised fists towards MT. Halstead, but great number of men stepped in be- tween MT. Halstead and those who were rushing at him. There was a great noise and uproar, which disclosed the fact that

 Over the Situation
PRESIDENT KRUGER'S REPLY
PORTUGAL MAINTAINS NEUTRALITY

Pretoria, August 31.-The Transvaals note to Great Britain offering the five year franchise and other concessions was strongly worded and explained that the conc essions were made with sincere desire fully to settle all differences, to put an end to strained relations and to avert a dis astrous war. Therefore a prompt answer was requested
 The note of MT. Conyning1am Green, in reply, was conciMatory and tantamount 10 an acceptance of the five year offer It agreed to waive the suggested commission of inquiry provided a representative to be appointed by Sir Alfred Milner should be given facilities in Pretoria to make an in- Vestigation of the franchise question and provided the report of such representative should prove satisfactory. Otherwise the Iransvaaa government was required to await further suggestions from the lm- perial government before submitting new proposals to the Volksraad.

MRS. LANGTRY IN
 A NEW COMEDY The Degenerates" Meets With Success on Initial Night. PRINCES CONGRATULATIONS Wales Wishes the Lily Brilliant Run Mrs. Langtrys Daughter Makes
 Her First Appearance
 on the Stage.

London, August 31.-Mrs. Langtry's ap- pearance at the Haymarket theater this evening in Sydney Grundys new comedy, "The Degenerates," was a decided success. She daringly portrayed what was generally understood to be scenes taken from her own life.
 The realism of the initial act is so in- tense, bringing in, as 1t does, all the scan dals associated with her name, that the unanimous comment at the close of the performance was; Tt was good, but she is awfulQy brave to do it.''
 Mrs. Langtry acted better than ever be- fore, seeming to throw herself thoroughly into the spirit of the comedy, which bris- ties with epigrams. but is occasionally vul- gar. MT. Hugo Gerald de Bathe, her hus- band, looked on from a box with the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Prince Louis of Bat tenburg and Gouha. The Duchess of Marl- borough, many other titled persons and a large number of well-known Americans, including Nat Goodwin, were in the audi ence.
 The Prince of Wales telegraphed from Marienbad: My best wishes for a bril- liant success Booked for fortnight from today. Albert"
 Charles Hawtrey, Miss Lilly Hanbury and Miss Lilly Grundy were the pick of the cast, the last named lady being Mrs. Langtrys daughter, who made her first stage appearance tonight.
 Miss Grundys clever dialogue met with the usual appreciation. It is probable that ''The Degenerates" will be taken to the United States in the course of a few months.

DREYFUS AND HIS LOYAL WIFE JOIN
 IN 4 RELIEVING SOLACE IF TEARS
Strain Proves Too Great for the Psoner and for Second Time
 During the Trial He Breaks Down.

Captain Lebrun-Reanult- But a very sig nificant question was put to Colonel Guerin by member of the court, Lieutenant Col onel Brongniart, who sits at Colonel Jou- austs right hand and always puts pointed questions.
 Has Studied the Case
 He has thoroughly studied the Dreyfus case and is reputed to be one of the best authorities on the case. It is certain Col onel Jouaust consults him frequently dur ing the proceedings. Brongniart is said to be a rabid ant-Dreyfusard and he to- day, in quiet tone, asked Colonel Guerin if he thought M. Well, who is a friend of Esterhazy, also knew Dreyfus.
 The latter at once declared that he never before heard of Veil. The point of this question was that Esterhaazy has writ ten to Colonel Jouaust, as announced, and has undoubtedly mentioned Veil as go- between for Dreyfus. This Is the person referred to in yesterdays dispatch al "V," a mistake for ''W." If relations can be proved between Dreyfus and Well, and Esterhazy admits obtaining reasonable information from Veil, then he could as- sume Dreyfus was a traitor. The generals, if sufficient evidence of a Dreyfus-Weil- connection can be produced, can abandon the contention that Dreyfus wrote the bordereau and admit Esterhazy as the author of it.
 Possible Change of Tactics
 This Is possibly the change of tactics on tine part of the generals vino have been hinted at recently.
 It was reported this evening that Gen. erals Mercier, Roget and Gong and NJ. Cavaignac, who are staying quietly at the house of friend some miles outside of Rennes, met today at General Merciers house and discussed the evidence Colonel Schwarzkoppen's housekeeper, Mime. Bad tan, could give if she was subjected to severe examination, with the result that 1t was decided that 1ner evidence was not conclusive enough to justify summoning her as witness for the prosecution.

SITUATION COMPLICATED
Chamberlain is Determined But Seeks
 to Avert War

London, Sept. 1.-The situation in South Africa has been rather complica ted. The stfong feeling of the Dutch element in the Cape colony evidently influences the secre- tary of state for the colonies, MT. Cham berlain, to do everything possible to avert rupture, and explains the further en- deavor after a conference at Capetown to arrange for the convention of an arbitra- ton court, and to deal with the question Of sazerainty, which, rather than fran chise, now takes the leading place in the controversy.
 Portugals action in permitting the tran sit of the ammunition consigned to the { Transvaal by way of Delagoa bay occa- stoned some surprise at first, but after the action of the Cape government, and until an actual state of warfare exists, 1t is rec- ognfzed that the Portuguese government could hardly have acted otherwise. The British papers now solace themselves with the remark that England can easily pre- vent such shipments if the crisis demands extreme measures, and that the action Of Portugal does not imply unfriendliness to- ward Great Britain.
 The Daily News says:
 "Mr. Chamberain's dispatch exhibits a game of patience almost in the aspect of cOmeQy.
 The special dispatches from Johannes burg express the belief that the Volks- raad. will disapprove President Kruger going to Capetown.
 General Jourbert is credited with saying; "Ithere will not be war, but Great Britain will not get all she wants"
 The Uitlanders are much irritated al the prospect of further delay.
 The Pretoria correspondent of the Daily Chronicle says:
 "President Kruger is not likely to agree to confer with Sir Alfred Miner at Cape town but he might go to Colesburg just within the borders of the cape colony"
 The Daily Chronicle publishes the follow ing dispatch from Capetown Ut is ru- mored here that Sir Alfred Milner, gover- nor of the Cape Colony, contemplates dis missing the Schreiner ministry under his special powers. If he does, it Is feared that a rebellion will break out as the is again forcing Cecil Rhodes to the front"
 The Capetown correspondent of the Daily Mail says: Much disappointment is felt here at the proposal of a conference as tending to pr long the agony indefinitely"
 Capetown, August 31.-A dispatch from Buluwayo says that Petrus Vilgoen, the Dutchman who was charged there a week ago upon warrant signed by the British high commissioner, Sir Alfred Miner, with melting the natives of Bechuanaland to rebel against the British authorities but was immediately rearrested on charge of having stolen a wagon belonging to Chief Khama.

Most of the early presidents rode on
horseback, the condition of the roads
and streets making carriage driving q
more or less difficult operation. Hayes
and Mckinley both preferred this, in
any case, and were often seen riding
about Washington. Grant had a prefer
ence for a light carriage, though he also
was fond of horseback riding. He was
once stopped on Pennsylvania avenue
by an officer who wished to arrest him
for fast driving. Arthur gloried in
horses and used often to be seen dash
ing about Washington behind a four
finland. Harrison abandoned the prac-
tice of being drawn to his Inauguration
by four horses, a custom that had grown
up in late years, and which was re-
vived' by Cleveland at his second in
auguration. Everyone knows the story
of JefferSon'S riding to his Inauguration
and tying his horse to the fence outside
the capitol.
Little is known of the personal walks
of the earlier presidents, but it is be-
lieved that they came and went freely

glad to be able to present such a salts
factory report, Notwithstanding the
anxious period through which they had
passed since the last meeting. On the
outbreak of hoStilities. the American
government practically took control of
the cables of the Western Union COM
pany at Key West, and instituted
strict censorship over all messages. The
Spanish authorities at Havana were.
consequently, compelled to send their
kilograms via Santiago to Spain. That
also applied to public messages. The
diversion of traffic caused consider
able increase in the receipts of the COM
pany. In fact, many messages from
Havana were carried over the whole

companys cables were cut. and one of
their cable huts was entirely destroyed
by the bombardment by the American
fleet. 1t was with a feeling of pride

trying circumstances.
When the Americans entered Santi-
ago, after the capitulation of July IL,
they were surprised to find the cables
working, but, on learning that they be-
1onged to an English company. they
contented themselves with sealing them
up thus stopping the traffic for three
weeks. The victors would have acted
differently had the company been a
Spanish one, so the shareholders should
be thankful for small mercies. The
