Little Rock, Ark, August GA special
to the Gazette from Newport. Ark. says;
News reached here today that the little
village of Pleasant Plains, situated in the
hills of the southern part of Independence
county, about twenty-five miles west of
Newport. was struck by storm last night
and literally wiped out of existence. Not
a house was left standing.
AS the town has neither telegraph nor
telephone connection with the outside
world, the details of the storms rayages
can not be learned at this hour.
A dark cloud was last night seen hover
ing over that locality. Pleasant Plains
was formerly called Farview.

But unfortunately that is not yet In my
power. As you know for three months we
have been negotiating. President Kruger
has made, perhaps, some little progress,
but can not truly say that the crisis Is
passed President Kruger procrastinates
in his reply. He driobles each reply like
water from squeezed sponge. His offers
are accompanied with conditions which he
knows to be impossible or he refuses 10
allow us to make a satisfactory inyestiga~
ton of their nature.
Il don't think 1t will be denied that we
have exhibited unparalleled patience IN
the relations between paramount and
subordinate state. The situation Is too
fraught with danger it is too strained for
indefinite postponement. The Knot must
be loosened, to use Mr.. Balfour's words or
else we shall have to find other ways OF
untying it. II we are forced TO do that

some localities take the open field. but as
