Brussels, June doctor Leyds, the
European representative of the Trans
vaal, has received an official dispatch
from Pretoria, confirming the report
of the failure of President Kruger and
the British high commissioner, Sir Al
fred Miner, to reach an agreement at
the conference just held at Bloomfon-
tein 1t rs added that although Pres
ident Kruger offered important con-
cessions- he made them contingent upon
the British acceptance of the principle
of arbitration on the differences exist
ing between Great Britain and the
Transvaal
1 Great Britain heretofore has invar-
iably refused on the ground that "
would be an Acknowledgement OF the
equalities of the two countries.
According to the dispatch received
by DR.. Leyds, President Kruger pro-
posed that a sojourn of two years be
necessary for naturalization, and that
the full franchise be acquirable nVe
years later, coupled with property and
other qualifications. The British high
commissioner, regarded the proposal as
Insufficient and made a counter pro-
posal.
President kruger, it is further as
serted, intends to submit both pro-
posals to the volksraad, subject to the
favorable decision of Great Britain, in
regard of arbitration.

few expect the fight will go the limit.
Jeffries is picked 10 win in from seven
to ten rounds. F'itzsimmons is expected
by his admirers to wind up the fight
somewhere near the sixth round. AL
together, a short contest OF not more
than sixteen rounds is looked for.i
In the betting there are plenty who
are willing to back Jeffries at 161s to
10, and good many who accept 4 to
10. There is a manifest intention, how
ever, among the heavy betters 10 hold
off until the day of the fight 1t is ex-
pected that big money will be placed
Friday and Friday evening before the
fight. The odds on Jeffries to win are
better here for the reason that he is a
Californian.

BALFoUR HAS HOPES.

Satisfactorily.

London, June THE Right Hon. Ar
thur ]. Balfour, first lord of the treas
ury, and government leader in the
house of commons. in the course of a
speech at political banquet this even
ing, said that the failure OF, the Bloom
fontein conference was a source of deep
regret to the government. 1t was Eng
lands duty, he said, not to allow her
rights to be trampled upon, but he did
not believe the controversy was in
capable of solution. In concluding his
reference to the conference Mr.. Balfour
said:
My sanguine forecast of success
full issue out of these troubles is based
on the facts that the principles so OBJ
ViouS as the elementary rights of civil
lization, which we demand for our fell
low countrymen. must commend them
selves to the citizens of the TranSvaal,
and 1 venture to think that the good
sense, justice, policy and wisdom of the
public opinion in the Transvaal will
make for some settlement which will
