General NIethuen,s Object

London, December GA dispatch from
Capetown, dated Sunday, December II, says
that General Methuen's primary object in
crossing the Modder river appears to have
been to establish searchlight communica-
ton with Kimberley, which is believed to
still be on full rations. The water in the
mines is plentiful. On the other hand, in
spite of their usual tactics, 1t is considered
possible that the Beers have been COM
PEELED to assume the offensive, the COM
mander having arranged for the dispose
ton of the forces, and anticipating diff
Guilty In maintaining food supplies in the
present positions. Moreover, it Is said there
is growing desire among the Free Staters
to return home, which is testified to on
many sides, and may tend to precipitate
an action on the part of the Beers COM
mand.
In spite of the delay of General Methuen
In advancing, he is regarded as largely the
master of the situation and his entrench-
ed position is believed to be unassailable.
In the event of the Beers attacking KIM
berley General Methuen would be enabled
to make counter move with his artillery
and cavalry. Consequently such move
ment on the part of the Beers, 1t is said, Is
not contemplated. 1t Is apparent there
fore that to make haste slowly is the truest
policy at present. In accordance with Gen.
eral Methuen's dictum the army should not
advance faster than the slowest OK wagons

When Called Down by Authori-
ties Democraica SuspendS.
TROUBLE OVERAN EDITORIAL
The Editor Explains the Suspension OF
Publication by Saying That He
Knows Not What Law Gov
erns the Press

Manila, December 22.-(10:50 p. m.)-The
newspaper Demoqraica, the organ of a CO.
terie of Filipinos, including the supreme
court judges, favoring American control in
the islands, tonight announced that dt had
been decided to suspend publica tion. The
paper was started at the suggestion and
under the patronage of the Philippine adj
visory commission, headed by Professor j.
G. Schurman. The Democraica prints sin
gle page in big type. In the statement ac-
companying the announcement of its sus-
pension the editor says he has been directed
by the provost marshal to retract certain
criticisms of the clerical methods adopted
in regard to the management of schools
and adds:
"Recognizing the authority of the pro-
vost marshal, we have no recourse except
to comply, and have decided to suspend
publication until the present extraordinary
conditions regarding press matters disap-
pear. When we know what law rules us,
by what mode we are judged and to whose
jurisdiction press matters are amenable,
the Democraica will reappear."
The paper has generally been warm
supporter of the administration.
The provost marshal recently threatened
to suppress 1T for publishing an editorial
asserting that Manila streets were in a
worse condition under the American than
they had been under the Spanish adminis-
tration.
The Manila Times was also recently
warned with an intima ton of imprisonment
and confiscation for printing an editorial
recommending the creating of a board of
charity commissioners to control the char
liable institutions. en- account of rumors
of mismanagernent of chartta Bile funds by
the church authorities.
The newspapers complain bitterly that
the authorities exercise With paternal su-
perversion, threatening to suppress, they
claim, for triding errors in the publica ton
OF news not connected with public matters.
They also say the censorship handicaps

dispatches received from respectable agen-
ces, whose transmission is of an exceed
ingly costly character. Tile matter sup
pressed includes reports of government ac-
tion, among them being Philippine and
American occurrences which might give
the Filpnos unfavorable opinion of the
United States.

CHANGE OF SENTIMENT
Public Opinion in Germany Not So Bit
ter Against British

Berlin, December PA gradual veering
OF public opinion in Germany regarding the
war in South Africa is becoming apparent.
The change is led by the inspired section
of the press Today several articles appear
pointing in the new direction.
Tie Cologne Gazette argues strongly
against the folly of demonstrating Anglo-
phobia. 1t says:
"Germany's real interest is to maintain
absolute neutrality in sentiment. 1t IS wise
TO retain England's good will IL Germany
intends to develop coloniaHy."
The Berliner Post contains an obviously
inspired article, in which this argument Is
made:
South African confederation Is impossi-
ble without harbors and the seashore,
England, as a great power, Is necessary
for the maintenance of the worlds political
equilibrium, and Germanys policy will be
to keep friends with England"
