that Mckinley was elected. Months
have passed since that event. and in-
stead of the fulhllment of these prom
ises, prosperity has not made it's APP

BEFORE"
1t seems to the Bee that such a plank
as the above should have had a place in
the 1899 structure. 1t would be a good
campaign document to thrust into the
faces OF republicans. Why do you sup.
pose it was omitted from the 1899 plat.
form? Well tell you. 1t is because
there is no truth in it. 1t is because
every statement in the above 1898 plank
has been d%isproven and the leaders
know it and the people know it.

LONDON, Sept. s1.-The Johannes
burg correspondent of the Morning
Post says: The Boer preparations are
as complete as the government can
hope to make them. 1t is believed that
martial law will be proclaimed on
Thursday if no reply has been received
from England by that time.
1t is understood that the dispatching
of British troops to South Africa will
be regarded as a casus belli.
The Boer officers are urging the gov
eminent to begin hostilities forthwith.
1t is felt that the Orange Free State can
best be forced to action by successful
military demonstration on the part Of
the Transvaal.

the planks of last year was as follows:

Of the republican party in the last cam

LONDON, Sept. 21.-Despite all out
ward show of calm Great Britain is in
practically the same condition today as
waslthe United States q few weeks be-
fore the opening Of the war with
Spain. Beneath the crust of diplomatic
reserve the military officers are working
night and day preparing for the signal
to begin hostilities whether that comes
or not.
England is not going to be caught
mapping any more than the Transvaal.
While Lord Salisbury is quietly at
home in Hatfield house, MI. Chamber
lain is buried in work at the colonial
Office and double forces at the royal ar
senal and dockyards are straining every
nerve to equip and transport the troops
to the Cape.
1t may be set down for certain that
Great Britain will do nothing to pre-
cipitate matters and the colonial office
is far from admitting that the case is
hopeless. The report that Great Brit
ain has demanded the dismantlement Of
the forts at johannesburg, together
with a material reduction i'll the arma-
ment of the burghers, the colonial Office
would neither confirm or deny, although
it is much doubted Meanwhile the
Marquis of Landsdowne, secretary of
state for war, who returned yesterday
from Dublin, has held long conferences
with General Lord Garnet Wellesley,
field marshal, and General Sir Evelyn
Wood, adjutant general to the forces,

ST. PAUL, Sept. 21.-The German

alleged dissertation of Catholic churches
in the Philippine islands. They note
the report to the daily papers and illas-
trations in weekly papers showing how
churches have been occupied by United
States troops for barracks, the affairs de-
spoiled of sacred utensils, vestments
and other articles, and urge the admin
istration to take such action as will
prevent a repetition of such outrages."

Last evening the Marquis of Lans-

The second edition of the Morning
Post contains a dispatch from PETER
maritzburg, Natal, saying: "I have
never known the situation to be graver.
The Beers only await two days. rain on
the veldt before beginning hostilities.
They are determined on war and con-
slider they a expect nothing else after
the last dispatch and are prepared to
face the consequences"
Advices From Cape Town.
Advices from Cape Town are to the
effect that the Afrikanders declare the
Transvaal will not yield further, and
that it the imperial government does
not recede from its present position war
is inevitable. The South African News
supports the contention of the Trans.
vaal that the convention of 1884 abol-
ished the suzerainty.
According to other advices the bur-
ghers are rapidly going into lager,
while the exodus from Johannesburg
yesterday reached 1000 persons. The
stock exchange at Johannesburg has re-
solved to close the moment martial law
is proclaimed, but all current contracts
will be carried out until the proclama-

meantime the merchants are erecting

At Pretoria the interest seems to be-
conferred in the meeting Of the Orange

On the other hand, advices from Bloem-

large number of members of the raad,
adding that the report of today's sitting
is already agreed upon, as the Orange
Free State will throw in it's lot with the
Transvaal, the free burghers being fully
armed and ready to start at a moments
notice.

A DIRECT ACCUSATION.
At Adams Inquest Cornish Charges
MOlin ux with Sending Him
Poisoned BrOmO.

New York, Feb. 24.-lIarry Cornish.
On the witness stand at the Adams in
quest Thursday accused Roland b..
MolineauX of having sent him the poi
soned bromo settler. His story was
that he thought Moineux had sent him
the poison because he was the only man
who had shown great enmity toward
him; that he had lied about him and
prosecuted him; that he had lied about
others in the club; that there was en-
nifty between Barnet and MolineuX,
and that Molineux had started stories
about members of the Knickerbocker
club. Witness declared that the cor
oner must search the athletic clubs of
New York city for the murderer of Mrs.
Adams. He suspected Molineux of hav-
ing sent Kutnow powders to Barnet,
Witness stated that MolineuX was his
bitter enemy, and the only man he
knew of who could have motive for
wishing to take his life. Cornish was
very earnest in testifying, and con-
tradicted much that he said when he
was first examined by HE coroner.
