BUNCOED EDWARD A.
Famous Anti-ImperiaIist Cheated BY
Good Looking Stranger.

Boston, October "a good looking
stranger with smooth tongue recently
bunooed Dir. Howard Atkinson of Brook
line, the well known nti.imperialist
leader, and the victim has aoknowied ged
the fact In letter to Chief Watts. The
stranger presented Mr.. Atkinson with a
letter Of introduction from Abraham S.
Hewitt of the firm OF Cooper, Hewitt s.
Co., of New York, which introduced the
visitor as p. X. Mather, South African
agent for Mather s. Plstt, machinery
manufacturers Of England. Mather asked
Mr.. Atkinson's advics about buying SEQ

Africa, and talked so plausibly that when
he presented draft for 16 pounds ster-

VAST PREPARATIONS.
stupendous Military Display 90 be
Made by Great Britain.


London, October e-The vastnsss of
Great Britain's military preparations
seemingly out OF ali proportion to the
work In hand. In South Afrioa-was not
fully realized by the public until the
war office announced that &c, 0r0 reserves
had already been summoned to rejoin the
colors. Az a matter OF fact General Sir
Redyers Butler will have command of
twice as many British soldiers as the
Duke of Wellington, the condueror of the
first Napoleon, ever saw collected on one
a Battlefield. The reasons hack Of this
lavish display are probably fear OF q
native rising and possibly conviction of
the advisability OF showing Enrope that
Great Britain Is prepared to resent any
action resulting from the prevalent con-
tinental ill-will. In this connection this
action of the American department. Of
state and the friendly statements of Pres
ident Mckinley and Secretary of the
State Hay. published here are heartily
welcomed as happy return for Great
Britain's refusal to sanction continental
intervention in the war between the
United States and Spain.
As the Beers failed to attack Natal
when the colony was vulnerable,it Is be-
ginning to be felt that they are pursuing
liberal policy of waiting for the British
proposals, remaining In the meantime on
the defensive in the hope Of thus. winning
the sympathy of the world and psrhaps
the supp rt of other nations, and leaving
to Great Britain the ignomin Of starting
hostiiities. If thsy await the advance of
General Sir Redvers Butler. IL Ia conceiv-
able that peace will not bs broken during
the present year. Should that prove the
the Beer commanders continue, the force
confronting the British commanding
general will he neither as numerous nor
as efficient as that now encamped along
the Natal border.
Events have thus seemed to shape them
selves to secure ample pause Tor oonsidera-
tion. All the proposals in tbs cores
pondence between President Steyn of the
Orange Free State and Sir Alfred MIL
Der, British high commissioner In South
Af-ica. show that the negotiations were
proceeding up to Octobsr 9th and that
neither despaired of peace, Sir Alfred
Miner saying he was sure any reasonable
proposal would be favorably considered
by the British government. President
Steyn's virtual proposal OF a neutral zone
to be created. pending further attempts
at Cancellation, meets with considerable
approval.

emit menace to our stability and duration
These questions bring but one
answer. The republic is sturiier and
stronger than ever before. Government
by tine people has advanced. Freedom
under the flag is more universal than
when the Union was formed. Our steps
have been forward, not backward. From
Plymouth Rock to the Philippines the
grand triumphal march Of human liberty
| has never paused.
Fraternity and union are deeply i'm
bedded in the hearts of the American
people For half century before the
civil war dis-unlon WAS the fear of men
of the American vocabulary. 1t Is spoken
now only as historical memory. N orth,
South, East and West were never 80
welded together and while they may
differ about internal policies, they are all
for the union and the maintenance OF the
integrity of the flag.
"has patriotism died out in the hearts
of the peoples Witness the 25,oOO men
| springing to arms and In thirty days or
ganized into regiments for the Spanish
war and million more ready to respond /;
and the more recent enlistment of 20, coo
men with many other thousands anxious
to enlist but whose services were not
| needed. Has American heroism declined
'T he shattered and sinking fleets of
the Spanish navy at Manila nd SANTA
go, the charge of San Juan and Ell Caney
and the intrepid valor and determination
of our gallant troops In more than forty
engagements in Lu zon, attest the fact
that the American soldier and sailor
have lost none Of the qualities which
made our earlier army and navy illustri-
GUS and invincible. After one hundred

shocks, but 1t remains immovable. II
has endured the storm of war, only 10 be
| stronger. Il stands 1rmer and gives
greater promise Of duration than when
the fathers made 1t the symbol Of their
faith.
MAY we not feel assured that II we do
our duty the Providence which favored
the undertakings OF the fathers and every
step of our progress since will continue
His watchfni care and guidance over US
and that the Hand that led us to our
present place win not relax His grasp till

end"

dent which was received with every man
Hesitation Of enthusiastic approval, Mr..
stone introduced Sir wilfred Laurier
Of Canada. who, ne announced. was to
speak on "Ehe Domiuion." The greeting

hi nix may say that the county may
rest as sured that no ifrevocsble step will
be taken until the Transvaal has received
and has had full opportunity to consider
those dem ands which the British govern
msnt considers necessary to protect the
rights OF their fellow citizens and 10 safe
guard British interests in South Africa.
"In these circumstances there is o
chanoe-perhaps only a remote chance
that wiser counsels tran have hitherto
prevailed may assert themselves.
s.s'I don't complain Of the speeches Of In
dependent politicians, although it may be
d Quilted that such utterancs tend to
peace; hut different kind of RESPONSE
biiity rests upon those directly conn ected
with the government. Though | do not
regret anything said on former occa-
sion, when dealing with this question,
yet the handle which that speech has
given to certain irresponsible negotia-
tors to open communications on their
own account has warned me that at the
present time, q member Of the govern
ment cannot be too careful OF what he
says and that tie wisest thing, perhaps.
Is to abstain even from good words.
"1here Is no reason in my opinion, to
apprehend that matters have assumed
more critical stage; and trust that the
intervals for reflection may lead to
settlement which oil the arguments and
persuasions hitherto employed have been
unable to effect"
The Duke, referring to the "Attempt
that had been made to deduos from my
speech at Manchester some indication Of
differences of tendency, II not of opinion
and policy between members Of the cabi-
nets" said that such differences inferred
had no existence whatever.

COAL SUPPLY INCREASED.

New York, October 9.--The October
letter OF the Anthracite Coal Operators
association, Issued today, says that the
volume Of coal now in process of ship
ment has materially increased In the last
two weeks. and that prices are firmer.
The only limit to the output. this year,
the letter adds, will be set by the ability
of the coileries to prepare coal and the
transportation companies to ship 1t.
Western market receipts from January
to September IL are slightly IN excess
of those for the same period in 1895; re-
oeipts by lake show decrease of q per
cent. Western stocks on September 10
were AIS. g37 tons, against 6os, 79s tons at
this time last year.
