PROTEST OF NO AVAIL.
United States Will Continue to Sell
Arms to England.

Chicago. Dec. ga special to the
Record from Washington says: Presi-
dent Kruger's government has formally
protested to Secretary Hay against the
sale of munitions of war by American
manufacturers and merchants TO the
British government. This protest was
designed TO prevent the British gov
eminent from obtaining much needed
war supplies. but it has proved of no
avail.
II is said Secretary Hay has sent a
reply TO the Boer government reiter-
ating the neutrality OF the United
States in the present war and declar-
ing that American citizens in trading
with both beliigerents violate no neu
trality obligation. It is also said that
the authorities have information show
ing that the Boer government has pur-
chased supplies in the United States.
The position of this government in
the matter of trading with beiligerents
has been since its foundation that its
citizens have the right 10 trade with
the contending belligerents.

Interior Department Shuts Down On
Wild West and Other Shows.

Washington. Dec. PA new depar-
ture in the policy of the department of
the interior is emphasized by unequiv-
ocal refusals which have met all recent
requests for loans of Indians for exhi-
bition purposes, and Secretary Hitch
cock and Commissioner of Indian AZ
fairs Jones have determined to stop the
abuses of the privileges, and have so
stated in a number of communications
lately. Mr.. Jones said today:
There will be no more Indians. per-
mitted to leave their reservations for
wild west exhibition purposes. They
cannot secure the consent of the Indian
bureau for their exhibition, save it be
along the lines showing the progress OF
Indian education. The day of the de-
partment's permitting Indians to be let
for wild west shows and such affairs is
past. 1t demoralizes the Indians, many
of whom would dress in citizens
clothes and otherwise conform TO more
civilized ways but for the dollars and
cents there is in continuing in their
customs"

DANGER oF CENSORSHIP.
Newspapers, For Want of News From
Front, Print Vicious Criticisms.

New York, Dec ga dispatch to
the Tribune from London says: A cold
hit of suspicjousness and depression has
followed the hot fit of patriotic ardor
with which the country met the min
listers call to arms. The embargo upon
news from the front leaves the news
papers under pressure for filing their
columns with croaking criticism. ex-
plantations Of defeat, structures upon
official shortcomings and general pes
simism.
The Daily, Mail and other Journals,
by opening their columns to popular
discussion Of the methods of conduct
ing the war, are enabling all sorts and
conditions of dispirited Britons to
grumble aloud and sniff at the numer-
Gus Jonahs who ought TO be thrown

vising the withdrawal of Methuen's
force from Modder river, the abandon
ment of the Kimberley garrison TO a
hopeless struggle against starvation,
and even so desperate an eXDedient as
an attempt by White TO cut his way
south with the bayonet. since the Boer
line of intrenchments is too strong to
be attacked again in front. The croak
eTs are finding fault with every branch
of the fighting service, and are joining
in a frantic hunt after a scapegoat.

After the meeting it developed that
Mr.. Chaplin'S denial of the reported in
debtedness of the firm TO the Globe
bank caused a sensation, as he stated
that the firm was reported as owing
more than 81 100000 through the falsify-
ing of the books OF the bank. This was
done. Mr.. Chaplin explained. by charg-
ing the collateral loans against the firm
without crediting the collateral, so that
every loan was made to appear twice
as large as it should.
An explicit explanation of the books
caused the overdraft to disappear. At
first il was not considered wise TO give
publicity to the condition of the bank s
affairs. but the assignment is thought
to make it prudent TO do SO now.

PEACE WILL SOON COME.
Terrible Consequences VIII Result
From a Prolonged War.

From a Prolonged War.
New York, Dec. ga dispatch to
the Herald from Paris says: The Ma
tin contains an interview with DR..
Leyds, the representative of the Trans
vaal in Europe. DR.. Leyds says that
even the most incredulous are now be-
ginning to think right will win the day
in South Africa, and that even Eng
land seems TO be losing her illusions on
the subject.
STILL continues DR.. Leyds. Il am
glad to repeat especially after our Sc
ries of victories, that we shall always
be ready to listen to proposals of peace,
provided they are equitable"
DR.. Leyds complains bitterly that he
can only correspond with Pretoria by
letter. adding that the British cable
censorship is fragrant abuse of her
monopoly. Asked regarding the safety
of the mines, DIR. Leyds said:
1.-The mines have been intrusted to
safe and loyal hands. President Kru-
ger has set troops and police to guard
the property, and after an honorable
peace the owners of the property will
find their property the more intact if
the war is of short duration. Police
are guarding the mines, but that is all.
The miners themselves are left to take
care of themselves"
If eventually Transvaal territory
were to be invaded, DR.. Lcdys said he
did not know what would happen. The
troops and police would have some
thing else to do besides guard the
mines. No one could answer for the
risks of war. Strategy had necessities
superior to private property. DR.. Leyds
also expressed grave fears of a rising
of blacks against whites, massacreing
both conquerors and conquered.
In conclusion. DR.. LeydS said he was
convinced that Pretoria would always
accept or offer a peace which would
guarantee the independence Of the
Transvaal, but President Kruger was
deprived of every material possibility
of making his sentiments known to any
of those interested in a speedy deter
mination.
