NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-The World wiz
tomorrow publish the following olspalcn
from President Kruger, of the south
African Republic in response TO q mes
sage sent by that paper:
1T vladlv accede to your request to
mt the Poer side before the American
nublic. The present agitation against
This republic emanates partly from a GER
tain section of British residents to whom
the existence of the republic, which en-
braces the most fiourishing parts OF
South Africa, is a standing eyesore, and
who partly from the prevailing lingo
mania, partly also from mining capital
lists who, not content with having here
the best mining laws in the world, wish
also to have complete control Of oil legis-
latiou and administration.
1.-The franchise voting question was
taken up by England, because 1t was
thought the republic would not yield on
that point. Now that the altered fran
chise has been offered-different from the
American because it Is easier--the agita-
ton has become worse. They wish to
control the richest mining country in
the world. The press, controlled by the
mining capital, spreads misrepresenta-
ton and falsehoods throughout the world
about the Boer and Boer methods
1--WE are determined to defend to the
uttermost that freedom and self-govern-
ment for which our people have shed
blood in every part of South Africa
Though we have no such powerful friend
as You proved to Venezuela and to other
republics, we have strong faith. that the
cause Of freedom and repuhlicailism will
triumph in the end

feat which will give him new worlds
record.
Mr.. Edwards arrived in Minneapolis
yesterday morning and registered at the
West During the afternoon he visited
st. Paul, in company with Charles Letzke
and L. F. Block, of the Northwestern Cy-
Gle company and called upon President
Mace Of the Century Road Club of Amer
lea, and met a number of other prominent
wheelmen.
Mr.. Edwards Is leisurely journeying to
the Pacific coast awheel, to acquaint him
self with the topography of the country
through which he is to travel IN his at
tempt to break the coast coast record
now held by De Vaux and La France of
Toledo. The existing record is thirty
seven days.
Since the completion Of his record
breaking feat, in 1898, Mr.. Edwards has
been visiting in Europe, convalescing and
familiarizing himself with the racing
game here. He Is a loyal supporter Of the
n. G. A, and predicts that the new asso-
citation will, after next February, control
professional racing, with a possibility
that the L. A w. will still manage the
amateur racing. He asserts that the
L. a. w. will turn professional racing
over to the outlaw association and in that
way will go back without retreating.
This outcome of the muddle which racing
matters are in just at present is conf
IDENTIFY looked for in the East and the
season of 1900 will, he thinks, SEQ but

tempting control, of racing
Mr.. Edwards thinks he has not had a
fair shake" with some of the Eastern
papers, as they depicted him as a dead
man, withered and worn after his great
$50 days ride AS a matter of fact, he
says that the reports, to the contrary
notwithstanding, were sensational and
merely calculated to sell Sunday papers
for some Of the New York sheets. He

every day until Sept. 8. Mr.. Edwards is
himself very healthy looking dead man
and quite frequently makes 100 miles
day on his present trip. In an interview
yesterday he said:
What 1 am after this time is the coast

ty-seven days by De VauX and La
France, OF Toledo. I figure that / can do
it in thirty days fat, the reason being
that l have schooled myself to the day
in and day out sort of riding, and do not
feel fatigue as short-distance men would
if put on a continuous diet of hard sled
ding.
Il have ridden all the way from New
York here In leisurely Tashion. and am
going through to the coast in the same
way The object of this is to size up the
route I have to traverse on my run for
the record, and get a line on how to
tackle IT.
II anticipate leaving Frisco on the re-
turn trip next May. The run will not be
such a severe strain, on my physical re-
sources as most people may imagine. My
system IS keyed UP TO the 1G0-mile -a-day
gait, and I am better of when going the
regular clip than when loaflng along as
at present. 1 am to ride this record trial
