INTERNATIONAL WAR
RESULT OF ENGLAND'S SUCCESS
IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Dr.. E. Benjamin Andrews, Startles
His Hearers During An Address
Delivered In Chicago.

Chicago, Dec. 1S.-.1f Great Britain is
ultimately successful in South Africa
the powers of the world will unite to
resist successfully her advance. A
coalition will be formed against British
domination. and when this war of the
nations comes, which side will the
United States take? We must take one
side or the other That will be a sad
day for our nation. Yet, 1 say we never
have got into scrape yet that we did
not get out Of And as a prophetic
American, 1 tell you we never shall.''
The foregoing statement was made
by DIR. Z. Benjamin Andrews, former
president of the Brown university, and
now superintendent of the Chicago pub
lie schools, in his address on THE War
in South Africa" at the Bethel African
Methodist Episcopal church last even
ing. The occa ION was the mems Sun
day forum meeting. and DR.. Andrews
startled his hearers by the declaration
that international war inevitably would
follow the success of Great Britain in
the Boer war. He announced that
from the moment Kruger's followers
surrendered, England necessarily would
come in conflict with other powers in
carrying out its plans of colonization.
He declared that clashes would fol-
low the attempt to build. the Cape to
Cairo railroad, and that the contem-
plated effort of Great Britain to build
railroad from the Suez canal to
Bombay, which would give that nation
a direct means of throwing munitions
of war into the lands about the bead
waters of the Euphrates would be re-
sisted.
The address of DR.. Andrews was
heard by an audience that packed the
chapel. Several times he referred to
the wrongs of the African people. both
in the United States and in Africa. and
his words brought out great cheering.

New York, Dec 1S.-A dispatch to
the World from London says: There is
no alienation of the gloom and panic
caused by General Buffers reverse.
The British forces in India cannot be
further depleted by drafts for South
Africa, while threatened trouble from
Menehk, the NeguS of AbysSinia. and
the possibility of complications along
the Mediterranean, renders the reduc-
ton of the garrison in Egypt too risky,
although General Kitchener is going as
Lord Roberts chief of staff.
Fear is expressed that the German
navy may be used in conjunction with
those of Russia and France to exert
pressure to prevent reinforcements
reaching South Africa. 1t is probable
that in view of such a contingency inn
mediate orders will be issued for the
mobilization of the fleet reserve. The
British public is awaiting with the
keenest apprehension the first indica-
ton of active hostility from continental
enemies.
Reconstruction of Cabinet.
A reconstruction of the cabinet is
eagerly discussed in political circles
Many deem it imperative that its old
and useless members, like Goschen,
Chaplin and Cross, shall be sacrificed

New York, June 2S.--An effort was made
to repeat the demonstration of strength
in the stock market. which was given by
the outburst of activity and strength
which carried prices to the highest in the
closing dealings yesterday, but with only
partial success. Manhattan was rushed up
to final quotation of 1914, which was Y
above last nights price, as New York
Central was rushed up late yesterday.
The sympathetic effect on the general list
was far below that of New York Central
movement. Decidedly the most signifi-
cant feature of the days trading was the
cessation of the upward movement in New
York Central's stocks There was an ac-
tive opening and advanced almost a point.
The demand was evidently soon satisfied.
for the time being, and the movement
lacked snap. The price was allowed to
lag. There were various factors of
strength in the days developments. which
prevented break in railroad stocks, but
there was obvious profit taking at some
points, and the days advances are small
except in a few cases. The rally at the
close did not bring prices back to the top
level. The most potent factor in favor of
the bulls was the disposition manifested to-
ward American securities in the London
market This was in face of tendency
to dullness and trading in the market
there. The takings for London account in
the market were estimated at $1,000 shares
or upwards of various stocks The de-
mand was most eager for Louisville &
Nashville which rose nearly 2 points on
the London demand. Various rumors
were in circulation of an approaching in
crease in the dividend rate to account for
the rise. Southern railway preferred was
strong in sympathy. The effect of the
London buying was shown In drop in
the actual rate for demand sterling to
$4.S71s, thus precluding the likelihood of
further gold exports at the present time
The industrial stocks which had been en-
tirely neglected were taken in hand for
a rise near the close, under the encour-
agement of the strength manifesto by
sugar and Amrican Tobacco. They proved
rather heavy to lift and dropped off, Con-
tinental Tobacco and Federal Steel being
especially weak. The firmness at the close
was on short coverings. induced by the
final squirt in Manhattan. Railroad bonds
were moderately active and strong. Total

About so tons a day is run through a
20-stamp mill and the grade of ore be-
ing handled now runs from SIS to $40
per ton. The mines are ell splendidly
timbered and air passages provided for
ventilation, which makes the work of
mining speedy and pleasant.
A process has recently been put in
which treats the product of the stamp
with chemical gas and results in
considerable saving of gold. The con-
centrates are handled with James
tables, an invention Of Master Me-
chanic u. S. James of the company,
and fiue yanners and the process
treated concentrates are said to double
the dividends of mines where it has
been tried. As the process does not
work well in ore containing large
percentage of arsenical iron. it may
not meet with full measure of sue
cess at the Bear Gulch mines. The
mines are paying handsomely, however
and nothing is lacking, in the opinion
of the experienced mining men, to
make Jardine one Of the greatest min
ing towns in the West. If it never
grows any larger than it is now, it
will still be big thing, and if business
is multiplied in the same ratio that
the stamp mills are increased, it will
be one of the greatest mining centers
to be found anywhere.
