Will Not Give Up Right
Of Intervention.
And Says Certain Other Matters
Must BE Settled.

London. September 1.-This evening the
secretary OF state for the colonies, EMr.
Chamberlain. issued the text of the
Iransyaal dispatches of August 10 and
August 81 and of the reply of the Imper-
ial government ON August 20, The pub
hcation is accompanied by note empha-
sizing the adyisabiIity of making the cor
rect versions known, owing to the fact
that an incorrect version has been pub
lished in Pretoria.
The Transyaal despatch of August 10
contains the proposals regarding the
franchise. which go upon the assumption
that Great Britain will agree that the
present Intervention does not constitute
a precedent and will allow the suzeranity
question to drop tacitly. The despatch
of August 81 makes the proposed oonces-
sions expressly conditional upon Great
Britain's undertaking not to interfere in
the future affairs of the Trausvaal not to
insist upon a further assertion OF the
existence of suzeranity and to agree to
arbitration. The reply OF the Imperial
government dated August 2s declares that
Great Rritain considers that the proposals
put forward as alternative TO those of
July 81 assume the adoption in principle
Of franchise which will not be ham,
pered by conditions impairing it's useful
ness and which viii secure immediate
representation.
With respect to Intervention the Imper-
ial note says that the governments cannot
the conventions. nor divest themselves of
the obligations of civilized power to
protect its subjects abroad from injustice.
The note concludes by reminding the
Transyaal that other matters exist which
the grant Of politica franchise will not
settle and which are not the proper sub
jects Of arbitration. These, the note de-
ciares, 1t viii be necessary to settle con.
currently with the questions already
under discussion and they will form,
with the questions of arbitration, proper
subjects for the proposed Cape Town con-
ference. The Pretoria versi on of the I'm.
periaI reply was that Mr.. Chamberlain
was unable to consider the Transvaai's s
proposals as an alternative to joint
commission oil inquiry.
