Consul General stowe Writes Inter-
es,tuRly From the Cape.

e8i1ugly from tie cape
Washington, Dec. 27.--Some effects of
the war in South Africa are described
by Consul General Stowe, at Cape
Town in a letter just received by the
department of state. Mr.. Stove is a
we'll known Mssourian, having been a
resident of Kansas City at the time of
his appointment. He writes:
The exodus of uitlanders from the
South African Republic and Orange
Free State has. / believe. been unpre-
cedented in history. Many of the peo-
ple-the mining population, the bone
and sinew of the country have scat
tered over the world. Numbers of
them. too poor to get out of the coun-
try, are subjects of charity in the cities
of Cape Colony and Natal and have TO
be fed. Some have funds for a few
days or weeks, but will in time have to
be supported by the public and this
country that cannot or does not pro-
duce the footstuffs for its own people.
The English army is fed with supplies
from other countries. and While much
of these may have originally come from
the United States, they reach here from
England. The customs duties and rnil-
road and telegraphic revenues have
fallen off. As the railroads and tele-
graphs are owned by the government,
a very large source of government sup
port is lost. to say nothing of the EN-
ployes thrown out of work.

to this time goods have reached this

not supposed that they will long be per.
mitted to enter. The two republics
must then live on their own resources
Their crops are ready for the sickle

no immediate advance is contemplated.
DISCREDIT THREAT TO INVADE
CANADA.
The Daily Mail and the Chronicle
have succeeded in producing no sort of
sensation by the elaborate story they
published yesterday of a projected
sh-American raid into Canada. No
one seems seriously to believe that the
Irish have any serious intention Of
risking a repetition of the Fenian raid.
while confidence is generally expressed
in the ability and desire OF the United
States government TO prevent such a
move if it should be found TO be really
contemplated.
