War May be Averted.

London, Oct. 6.-There is something
mex plicable about the delay in the
Transvaal crisis. Indications OF a
peaceful settlement are wanting and at
the same time no definitely hostile
move on either side takes place. The
ultimate proposals which England is
going to send to the Trsnsysal have
been withheld and the Beers are await
ing these before making their reply.
The belief is increasing in diplomatic
circles that there is some good reason
for the delay. 1t js said that if nego-
tiations of secret character between
the British and Boer governments are
not proceeding, any way, some in1u-
ence powerful alike in Pretoria ana
London, which works unseen by the
public, is staying war and may possibly
avert it.
Capetown, Oct. 6.-President Steyn,
of the Orange Free State, yesterday
said that the Orange Free State would
not begin an attack but would defend
itself. Robertson, the Englisbmen ar.
rested in the Transvaal on charge OF
recruiting men for ENGLAND, has prob.
ably been shot. With the exception
of scouts the Trausvaal troops are still
IN their own side of the frontier.
London, Oct. 6-Henry Campbell
BaDnerman liberal leader, in the House
of Commons, speaking on the 1ransvaal
situation at Maidstone. today, said :
II see no reason TO believe that diplo.
macy has had its last word as further
proposals, which will leave an opening
for negotiations are promised on our
side"

clares it learns from reliable sources
that Queen Victoria, in the presence OF
her family and Lord Salisbury, declar-

England at war with the Beers.

FRIDAY EVENING. OCT. 6. 1899

TIE ADvIsABLITY of destroying the
surken snip Maine with dynamite has
again been proposed. For the reputa-
ton of the country, it is hoped 1t may
not be adopted. The fair name ana
fame of the q. s. army and navy nave
been smirched sufficiently already
without adding anything thereto. Ali
foreigners and hundreds OF thousand
of unprejudiced and intelligent
Americans firmly believe that the
Maine was lost by an explosion within,
and not outside of that Inflated vessel,
and the constant efforts of people who
want it to appear that she was blown
ND from the outside, and not by any
fault of those on board of her, to have
the wreck torn to pieces so that the
real cause of the explosion could never
be known, tends very much not only to
strengthen the belief referred to, but to
increase the stain. When millions are
spent in surveying and laying cables
across seas ten Thousand miles from
nome and 10 other needless ex-
penditures, why few thousands
couldn't be spared to clear up a case
that affects the honor of the country,
looks very much, to unprejudiced peo-
pie, as if this government is afraid to
have the true cause of the explosion
made apparent.

PECULIAR DEcoRATIoNs.-A young lady
of Richmond. who was baptized in one of the
Baptist churches on Sunday night, hung her
baptismal vestment on clothes lines in the
back yard of her fathers residence. The
next morniog the front of the residence was
decorated in garish manner with the gar.
ments, and created considerable excitement
in the neighborhood. After the family came
to realization of the cause of the interest of
the crowd, it took them some time to remove
the garments from the points from which
they hung. Mr.. J. s. Goodman, in the Police
Court yesterday morning, charged dozen
well-known young men with the offense. he
was only able, however, to identify two of the
young mep-Russell Goodman and Jenefer
Evans, as having been in crowd he saw
trespsssing on the night in question around
his premises They both swore they were
not there, and the case was continued to en-.
able them to secure witnesses. Mr.. Goodman
swears vengeance, and the young men con-
slider the whole thing huge Joke.

FAIRFAX CIRCUIT CoURT.-What ls
known as the Ramsby road case was
finally settled in the Fairfax Circuit
Court yesterday. During the last State
legislature special act was passed au-
thorizing the special road supervisors
of Fairfax county to open new road
from Falls Church to Fairfax Court
House, distance of nine miles. The
supervisors opposed this action, and re-.
fused to follow the directions of the
legislature. Recently the Mayor of
Falls Church and many citizens united
in petition for mandamus TO COM
pei the supervisors to build the road.
The mandamus was granted by Judge
Nicol yesterday, and the road will be
opened.
Suit, which was lately instituted by
Edward W. Starnell, of this city, for
$500 damages for election from one of
the cars of the Washington, Alexandria
and Mount Vernon Railway, resulted
yesterday in verdict of $3.50 for the
plaintiff. AS heretofore stated Mr..
Starnell was put off train because he
demanded that his dog should be al
lowed to rice with him.
The will of Maj. Hine, who died late.
ly at Vienna, has been probated in the
Fairfax Circuit Court. The value of
the property named in the will is $780,.

commissioners arrived this morning
ready for business. 1t is composed of
General Pillar, Gracio Genzaga u mem-
Der of the Filipino cabinet, Major Seal
cita of Aguinaldo's staff, and Col. Bar
retto a military advocate.
They presented their request to Otis
and renewed their request for an armis-
tice until such time as wonld enable
Aguinaldo to learn the wishes of his
countrymen.
Otis explained the wishes of the Uni
ted States as beiug as clear upon that
point as they were at the previous con-
ference and he declined to consider the
request.
Permission, however, was granted to
the commissioners for an interview with
the leading natives of Manila and to con-
suit the Philippine commission as to the
desire of the Filipinos in consulting the
American commissioners.
The real object Of their visit is prcbab-
ly to secure peace on the best terms they
can. The request for an armistice is
the last attempt OF Aguinaldo to MAIN
tain the attitude of the country.
The expedition up the Rio Grande
under Major Kobbe captured Candaba
without meeting VITA any resistance.
The local government requested the
Americans to leave the garrison.
Kobbe is at Candaba waiting for
orders to advance and meet Lawton who
started south flom San Isidro.
