Kruger'S Change.

New York. Sept. "a dispatch to the
aspect of the T%ransvaal affair continues
to be a mystery too deep to be prObed
by anybody outside of the chief secre-
tary's room in the colonial office. Presi-
dent Kruger has suddenly changed his
ground. He had been refusing to grant
a joint inquiry into the precise effects of
the proposed political changes. but had
offered a five years franchise INC in
creased representation under the condi-
ton that the suZerainty should be aban-
doned. He has now withdrawn that offer
and reverting to his original scheme, has
accepted the suggestion for a conference
of some kind. The facts are in dispute,
but this seems to be a close approach to
the truth.
Why has Kruger changed ground so
suddenly? That is the difficult question
to ansWer His new attitude would be
Ineligible if he had received from, Mr..
Chamberlain in the last Week or the week
before a somewhat peremptory intima-
ton that the patience of the British gov
eminent was exhausted and that it could
not wait any longer. but must have an
answer by the middle of this week. Re-
ports respecting the ordering out of the
today, but the situation has become grave
and almost critical, as is shown by the
presence of Mr.. Chamberlain in London
and the remarkable activity prevailing
in military circles. There are no signs in
the mining market that war is close at
hand, but ~fnancierS are not always well
informed OF a crisis.

TO the SovereignS Of Italy
and Germany.
WITNESSES HE WANTS
Will Probably Make Declarations That
Will Show That Dreyfus is limo
cent--The Brilliant Coup of the
Counsel for the Prisoner.

Rennes. Sept. en-. Labor yesterday
afternoon telegraphed personal appeals
to Emperor William and King Humbert
to grant permission to Colonel Schwartz
koppen and Colonel Panizzardi, German
and Italian military attaches in Paris in
1894, to come to Rennes to testify in the
trial of Captain Dreyfus. This was the
news of the day and the chief topic of
conversation in the cafes and resorts Of
the journalists last evening. The appeals
were couched in eloquent terms, invoking
the assistance of their majesties in the
name of justice and humanity. They We're
quite supplementary to the formal appli-
cation that will be made by the govern
ment con1missary Major Carriere. The
demand of NJ. Labori that the court mar
tial should issue process subject to the
approval of the two sovereigns, came like
q thunderbolt at yesterdays session.
The step is fraught with momentous con-
sequences, as it affords Emperor William
an opportunity to assume his favorite
role of arbitrator of the destinies of the
world. No one will be surprised if Col
onel Schwarzkoppen; in the name of the
kaiser, makes a declaration that will
practically decide the results of the trial.
Both Schwarzkoppen and, Panizzardi
must consult their respective sovereigns
before starting, but the counsel for Drey-
fus fully expect them to arrive here, if
they come at all, in time to give their
testimony on Thursday, in which case
the trial would probably conclude this
week and the verdict be delivered on Fri
day or Saturday. This is the view that
obtains this evening, differing somewhat
from the feeling earlier in the day.
Colonel a told Demange at the
end of the session that he received official
notification that if Colonel SchWarzkap-
pen n Colonel Panizzardi we've coming
to depose, he would be prepared to ad-
jOurn the trial pending their arrival. An
adjournment of 48 hours would probably
give them time to get here. A remarka-
BILE climax, and one that is significant of
the relations etwee the two eminent
advocates who are conducting the de-
Tense is the fact that NJ. Labori tele-
graphed the German emperor and the
king of Italy on his own initiative with
out consulting or advising NJ. Demange.
The appearance of Colonies Schwarzkop-
pen and Panizzardi would be the most
sensational as well as the most important
incident of the entire trial. Their depo-
sitions would be a formal and emphatic
declaration that they never had any rela-
lions with the accused, and if they would
make such a statement that the court
must order al acquittal. Those who are
in the confidence of the counsel entrusted
with the defense express a firm convic-
ton that Dreyfus will now be acquitted.
Nevertheless, one of the most promi-
nent generals with whom the correspond
ent of the Associated Press conversed
today, declared himself quite pleased
with the progress of the trial thus far"
and confident Of a conclusion ''eminently
satisfactory to the prosecution

Shafter Will Remain.

Chicago. Sept. "a special to the
Times-Herald from Washington says: AS
a reward for his services in connection
with the Santiago campaign, President
Mckinley purposes to continue Major
General Shafter in command of the de-
partment of the Pacific with his present
volunteer rank after the time reached for
his retirement on Sept. IA. With General
Skaters retirement Major General Law
ton who has only the rank of colonel in
the regular establishment, will, it is ex.
pected, be made a brigadier general of
the regular army. General Macarthur,
who holds the rank of lieutenant colonel
in the regular army, is to get the same
step when Brigadier General Anderson
retires in January, and General Wheaton,,
a colonel of infantry, is booked for the
.brigadier generalship on he retirement
of General Merritt, which will also open
the way for the appointment of a major
general in the regular army.

Ill With the Scuryv.

San Francisco. Sept. 6.-The steamer
Sequoia, which has returned from Clip
perton islands, reports that scurvy is
causing much distress there. Five men
have succumbed to the disease and 20
others are afflicted with the malady. In
all there are only about 80 men on the
island in collecting guano for shipment
to this city. Those on the island We're in
a state Of dire distress when the steamer
arrived on Aug. IL, for she had been ex-
pected months before. Only Is men We're
fit to be at work and a few days more
would probably have put them on the
sick list. The stores Of the Sequoia We're
levied upon and lime juice and vegetables
were dealt out to those who We're i'll, with
the result that when she sailed all show
ed signs of Improvement.

The Hague Was a Very
Good Beginning.
WORK OF THE AMERICANS
Was Appreciated By the Delegates
From the Other NatiOnS--Secretary
Hollis Was Not Snubbed By the
Emperor of Germany.

New York, Sept. 6.-Frederick w. Hollis,
secretary of the United States commits
sioners to the peace conferences at The
Hague, has just returned home. Speak
ing of the results achieved by the confer
ence. Mr.. Hollis said:
The American commissioners worked
tremendously together and with the rep
resentatlves of other countries. Now
that the conference has ended. we feel
that we have taken care of the interests
OF this country so far as lay in our power
ana as we'll as we knew how. Without
wishing to disparage the efforts or the
ABILITY OF any of the other members of
the commission, l may say that our sue
cess was due first and foremost to the
wisdom and Judgment displayed by An
drew d. White. Although. perhaps, it
did not ppear SO on the surface. iIr.
White was the adviser of the conference
and his influence was strongly felt. He
smoothed out difficulties and prepared
the way with a fine hand for some of tho
best work done at This Hague.
we succeeded in carrying most of the
proposals we We're interested in. Those
best qualified to judge regard the work
accomplished by the conference as being.
While not a very long step, at least a
step in the right direction. The institu-
" VI q SIedl per dIlell court Oh dfDl-
tration is undoubtedly a great step for
ward in International law and in the
history Of civilization. There was a most
admirable spirit manifested by the dit
ferent delegates toward the representa-
tiFes of other countries. Between the
American, English and German delegates
the most cordial feeling and the closest
cooperation existed
While the conference was sitting Mr..
Hollis went to Berlin for the purpose, it
was said, of appealing personally to the
German emperor to withdraw the Objec-
lions of his delegates to an international
court of arbitration. Dispatches received
in this country at the time stated that
the mperor had refused to see Mr.. Hollis.
This is denied by Mr.. Hollis.
"When the German objections were
he said. Il was instructed to go
to Berlin with the German commissions
ers for the purpose of comforting with the
government ministers. The emperor was
away yachting at the time and the re-
port that l attempted to see him was
absurd. But l did see Prince
Hohenlohe n Count Won BuelOW, the
for foreign affairs. l discussed
the situation With them, with the result
they withdrew all objections to the
proposed international court and from
time gave us their cordial

Dewey AT Gibraltar.

New York, Sept. Ga dispatch to the
World from Gibraltar says: Nothing
could be in more striking contrast be-
tween Admiral DeWey's surroundings at
the hotel here and what awaits him in
New York. He came ashore at s O'Clock
this morning, his Chinese servants bring
ing his small steamer trunk. The hotels
here are poorer thar those in small coun-
try towns of the United States. The
hotel where the admiral is stopping is
no exception. He and Lieutenant Brum-
by have two rooms adjoining, as large as
the hotel affords, such as rent for 81 a
week in New York. But the rooms are
quiet and the admiral has made himself
quite comfortable. In he morning he
visited the garrison library and at the
