BERLIN. Sept. 19.-The Cologne Gazette ad-
vises the Doors to yield even at the eleventh
hour on the question Of the franchise. The
other disputes can then be settled without any
difficulty. The Gazette says 1t 10 easy to under

VIENNA. Sept 19-The principal papers here
devote leading articles to-day to the Transvaal

The Femdenblaa says the feeling In England
corresponds with Colonial Secretary Cham ber-
lain's attitude. The majority Of Britishers,
this journal says. are convinced that the mat
ter affects the honor OF the Empire.
The Neues Wiener TqgebldH say the reply OF
the TranSvaal Government can hardly be
brought In harmony with . sincere love Of
peace. The paper hopes the British Cabinet
will once more afford the Transvaal an oppor-
tunity for considering the situation which

Atkinson in return threatened to make per-
sonal fRht against Gen. Shattue in the First

that shattuc has made moro friends than he
ever did In his life by his patriotic stand. This
