LONDON, August 23.-The Secretary

the Transvaals reply TO the proposals
OF the British Government and now
has it under consideration. The MEM

but until the Government has deter
mined on what course to pursue, Mr..
Chamberlain is unwilling to divulge
the contents of the message from
South Africa.
LONDON, August ga Parliamen-
tary paper, dealing with the Transvaa1
crisis, was issued today. 1t details
the efforts of the Boer Government
during the past year to have the ques-
ton of the suzerainty of Great Brit
ain submitted to arbitration and
Great Britain's repeated refusals to
discuss this basic point. The docu-
ment adds that Sir Alfred Milner. Gov
ernor of Cape Colony and High Com
missioner of South Africa, writing to
Mr.. Chamberlain. the Secretary OF
State for the Colonies, last June, said:
The way in which the Secretary of
State juggles with the convention Of
1884 is rather irritating to a plain
man.
The final dispatch from Chamber
lain, dated July 13, 1899, to Sir Alfred
Miner, concurs with the latter's view
as to the untenable Transvaal cOnten-
ton. adding that the British Govern
ment had no intention to continue to
discuss the question of suzerainty with
the TranSvaal.
