OVER DYNAMITE MONOPOLY.
Pretoria. July 24-Presdent Kruger had been
absent from the Government Building since FRI
day afternoon, and It was understood that, ow-
ing to the opposition shown him by the Ex-
ecutive Council and the Voiksraad regarding
the questions Of the johannesburg fort and the
dynamite monopoly, ne had arrived at the con-
clusion that he no longer possessed the Volks-
raad's confidence and threatened to resign. To-
day, however a deputason. including General
Joubert the vice-President; Herren Schalk and
Burger and the Chairman OF the Voksraad'
waited upon MT. Kr1ger at the Presidency. and
induced him 20 attend secret session OF the
volksraad which lasted over three hours.
Meanwhile an anxious crowd assembled out
side the building waiting expectantly TO learn
the outcome OF what regarded as a mo-
mentous debate.
Late this evening II was announced that the
volksraad had finally assured the President that
IL had the utmost confidence In him. II Is un-
derstood. however that a majority OF the mem
bers Of the Raad stin differ from the President
on the dynamite monopoly question.
Paris, July 24.-Dispatches received here from
Pretoria South African Republic, say that the
absence Of President Kr1ger from the meeting
Of the Executive Council to-day gave currency
TO a report that he had resigned. owing to diff
ferences between himself and members OF the

gard TO the matter denied these rumors. stating
positively that they were without foundation.
