NO THREATS IN BLUE BOOK.
Still Time For Disputants to Arrange
Compromise.

London. June 14.-Though the sensa-
tional papers are making much of the
blue book on the Transvaal negotia-
tions, issued last night in which the
British high commissioner at South
Africa, Sir Alfred Miner. practically
declared it a case of British interven-
ton in the Transvaal, beyond doubt the
reply of the secretary of state for the
colonies, Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain. to
the petition of the Uitlanders, removes
many apprehensions.
The text shows it did not contain
threats concerning which many rumors
were afloat. and demonstrates that
there is therefore. still time for the dis
putants to arrange a compromise, of
which signs are not wanting.
