The Anaconda standard. [volume] (Anaconda, Mont.) 1889-1970, 1899-12-19

New York, Dec. Ism. de Long, the
manager of the dynamite factory at
Modderfontein, in the Transvaal, has
just returned to France and has been
interviewed by. the representatives of
several of the Paris journals. He says:
THE British government can have
had no idea of the vast extent of the
preparations that the Beers have been
quietly making for years with the real
ization that another struggle with the
full force of Great Britain was newt
able. Even should the Beers be driven
out of Natal, he points out that no
British army could ever hope to enter
the Transvaal and survive. Since the
war began, he asays, heavy artillery
that had been carefully stored away
has been brought forth. He asserted
that the forts at Pretoria and Johannes
burg are as strong as any fortresses in
the world and have within the last
month been rendered absolutely i'm
pregnable, while Edelberg alone could
hold its own with Is men against 1000
assailants, particularly in the rainy sea-
son, which has just begun, causing I'M
fordable streams suddenly to spring
into existence. NJ. de Long states that
there are about 5000 well-trained Ger
man volunteers in the Boer army, who
have not yet been allowed to go to the
front. He adds that the government is
showing an economy of strength and
have not yet used a fraction of their
military resources.

The nIonetary strincency.

New York, Dec. 1S.--A special to the
Herald from Washington says: Secretary
Gage will not discuss the question of
what further action, if any, he will take
to relieve the monetary stringepcy. The
gravity of the situation is thoroughly APP
preciated by the treasury department, but
just what will be done it is impossible
to predict, though it is probable that
some measure of relief will be afforded
by increasing the government deposits
in national banks. An offer to purchase
another block of government bonds may
be considered, though the results of the
last offer were not encouraging. Officials
think that in a time of stringency the
government ought not to be expected to
offer more than the market price for its
bonds. 1t is apparent however, that If
bonds are to be bought more must be Of
fered for them a. under the last offer the
government received only $4,000, 600 out OF
the S25,0O000o which Secretary Gage was
willing to buy.
Treasury officials attribute the present
stringency largely to the fact that bust
ness is prosperous and is absorbing large
amounts of currency that in less prosper
Gus times would flow to New York and
would be available for loans. IT Is agreed
that il the present conditions continue
New York must get along with a smaller
amount of currency than formerly and
business must be adjusted to meet the
new conditions.

International War.

Chicago, Dec. 1S.--"If 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
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, l say we
never have got into a scrape yet that
we did not get out of. And as a
prophetic American, tell you We never
shall"
The foregoing statement was made
BY DR. +. Benjamin Andrews, former
pl s;dent of the Brown university and
no"- superintendent of the Chicago
pubic schools, in his address on The
War, III South Africa" at the Bethel
African Methodist Episcopal church
last evening. The occasion was the
mems Sunday forum meeting, and DR..
Andrews startled his hearers by the
declaration that International war in
evitabIy would follow the success of
Great Britain in the Boer war. He an
nounced that from the moment that
Kruger's followers surrendered Eng
land necessarily would come in conflict
with other powers in carrying out its
plans of colonization. The address of
DR.. Andrews was heard by an audience
that packed the chapel. Several times
he referred to the wrongs Of the Afri-
can people, both in the United States
and in Africa, and his words brought
out great cheering.

pOli'a Theater

Polls drew a packed house last night and there was an excellent show on The Six Waltons made hit with their phenomenal acrobatic act, and Conroy and Mcdonald convulsed the house with their Irish art in a Imaginable sketch. The two one-act plays this week are excellent, One is ''The Fool ish MT. Wise" played by MT. and Mrs. Edward Esmonde, and "A Brace of Woodcock," Mrs. Marlin's play, pre- scented by Miss Leslie Palmer and the Bigelow twins, The vitagraph pictures show several views in which Admiral Dewey is seen, a particularly fine view, the presentation of the $10,0O0 sword in Washington, showing the admiral in full uniform. Another view is the cele- bration at the coronation of Queen Whilhelmina of Holland. A bit of the yacht race last week between the Shamrock and Columbia in which the Columbia makes a magnificent spurt and passes the challenger, is one of the best pictures ever shown here The bill also includes Billy Carter, Golando the clay modler, the Maher sisters and the Guises. Prices 10c and 20c. Ladies at the matinee, 10c.
