effort made by the superintendent
toward getting plenty OF water,
and severely condemn the water
company for not complying with
his recommendation for the needed
improvements in the plant Mr..
Munson made a mistake in not

JOHN BULLS LATEST
WARNING TO THE B0ERS

LONDON, Sept. 25.-The officials of
the Foreign Office this evening gave
out the text of the letter of the Secre-
tary of the State for the Colonies, Mr..
Chamberlain, to the British High Com
missioner in South Africa, Sir Alfred
Miner, dated September %. The Brit
ish reply expresses regret that her Ma
jesty's offer number five, of September
9, had been refused, and says:
The object her Majesty's Government
had in view in the recent negotiations
has been stated in a manner which can
not admit of misapprehension, viz, to OBJ
tain such substantial and immediate rep
resentation for the Uitlanders as will en-
able them to secure for themselves that
mally promised them in 1881, which her
Majesty intended to secure for them
when she granted privileges of self-gov-
eminent TO the TranSvaal. No conditions
less comprehensive than those contained
in the telegram of September can be
relied on TO effect this object. The re-
fusal of the South African Government
to entertain the offer thus made COM
ing as it does after four months of pro-
tracted negotiations, themselves the
climax of five years of extended agita
ton, makes 1t useless TO further pursue
the discussion on the lines hitherto fol-
lowed, and the imperial Government is
now compelled to consider the situation
afresh and formulate its own proposals
for final settlement of the issues which
have been created in South Africa by the
policy constantly followed fer many
wears by the Government of South
Africa They will communicate the re-
suit of their deliberations in later dis
patch.

substituted, and the communication
then proceeds as follows:
The imperial Government sees no
ground for misapprehension on the part
of the South African republic as to its an
swer regarding non-interference and suZe-
rainty, as the imperial Government had
already stated that it would not press for
the appointment of a joint commission of
inquiry in view of the fact that such an
inquiry would: in the opinion of the Gov
ernment of the South African republic
prejudice the right of full independence
repeatedly recognized by the imperial
Government.
AS to the use of the English language
in the Volksraad the imperial Govern
ment regards this as reasonable, and IS
astonished that the Government of the
South African republic should deem it un-
necessary. and make point of denying

mi noon to-day the American cere-
VI mony. according to the rites
i \ of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, following the Russian
service last evening, made Miss Julia
Dent Grant, daughter of General and
Mrs. Frederick Dent Grant and grand
daughter of President Grant, the wife
of Prince Cantacuzene, Count Sper-
anski. 1t was the closing and crowning
social event of the Newport season, and
one of the most brilliant affairs of the
kind ever chronicled in the social an
nails of this city. .t.
The reasons for this second marriage
ceremony have already been well eX-
planned. The ceremony to-day was eel
ebrated in that unpretentious edifice,
All Saints Church. and the ritual
was that of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, which. if brief is decidedly i'm
pressive. There were two clergymen
and a Bishop in the chancel. some
beautiful music and ali that goes
to make up a lovely wedding, and,
above all, the glorious sunshine that all
brides wish for.
The assembly of invited guests, nota-
BILE for social and military distinctions,
made the ceremony one of the most
brilliant ever witnessed at Newport.
The family and social connections of
the bride gave to the wedding a mill
tary as well as a diplomatic character,
and the little church in which it took
place was bright with blue and gold,
the bridegroom's uniform easily out
shining those of the Home Guard.

mer colony had delayed their departure

ever known at this popular resort.

Episcopal Bishop of New York. assisted
by Rev Dr. Nevins of the American
Church in Rome, officiated, but, in ac-
cordance with the laws of the State of
Rhode Island, Rev. DIR. Porter of the
Emanuel Church of this city read that
portion of the service which legally
united the distinguished pair.
A reception followed the wedding
ceremony at the Palmer residence and
late this afternoon the Prince and
Princess left for New York and St.
Petersburg.
All Saints Chapel, which seats not
quite 500, was we'll filed half an hour
before the time set for the ceremony.
and the guests as they waited viewed
wealth of decorations in green and
white The walls and ceiling of the
chapel were hung in white vines,
wreaths and white flowers. while the
entire altar rail was covered with white
roses.
On the altar were suspended a large
number Of baskets filled with orchids.
with chime of snowy floral wedding
bells. Large garlands of brides roses
depended from the bells 10 two Italian
columns, forming a bower which al
most hid from view the bridal party. as
it stood at the altar The only music
was that of the organ, which gave out
the notes of the 'Lohengrin" wedding
march as the procession entered the
church doors.
At the same time Bishop Potter and
DR.. Porter, vestured for the service, en-
tered the chapel from the vestry, fol-
lowed by the Prince and Hon. r. E.
