Washington, April 6-Late today official
dispatches were received from Berlin
stating that as a result from conferences
between tho Grman, British and Amrican
representatives, a settlement Of the sa-
moan affair was assured. The main feat
ure Of this conference was a determina-
ton that the high commission should act
through a vote and not by a majority.
Tis IS on the theory that the delegates
will be Of high character, that unanimous
agreement will be certain, although there
Is, of course, tha possibility of dead
lock. The present tendency Is not to pro-
vide a final arbitrator, but to assume that
thee commission will agree among them
selves. This eliminates for the present

BOER'S REPLY
KEPT SECRET
Only q Forecast Is Received By
British Government.
IT CAUSED A GREAT STIR.
England Not Yet Ready For War
and Negotiations Are
Still On.

A London special says: A forecast
Of the first draft OF the Tfansvaal's re-
ply to the last note OF the British SEQ
rotary Of state for the colonies, Mr..
Chamberlain, now under discussion by
the volksraad, has been received by
Mr.. Chamberlain, but its nature Is
not yet known.
At the colonial office a reporter OF
the Associated Press was informed
that nothing will be given out for the
present.
1t was regarded as significant, how
ever, that the nature of the Boer reply
was communicated to the commander
in .chief, Field Marshal Lord Wolsely,
who Immediately summoned General
Sir George Stewart White, V. O.,
former quartermaster general, the
prospective commander Of the British
forces in Natal.
The tension now existing here and
at the Cape may be temporarily settled
at any moment by the publication OF
President Kruger's reply. On the
other hand, it may be several days be-
for the general public learns what an
swer the Transvaal has made. II Pres
ident Kruger has answered defantly
II does not necessar il ~ mean the break
ing off of negotiations. The British
would probably reply with an unmis-
taxable ultimatum.
1t lis scarcely to England's advan-
tage to bring about hostilities until
the reinforcements are nearer the
scene OF action than they are at pres
ent.
Whatever the nature OF President
Kruger's reply, ii is probable that sew
eral more stages Of diplomatic pro-
cesses will be gone through with be-
fore there is definite war or peace, I'M
less, Of course, President Kruger
should take the initiative and raid
Natal. 1t is the possibility Of this
move that makes definite news of the
reply SO eager and anxiously awaited.
The consul general of the South
African republic, Mr.. Montague White,
said to reporter Of the Associated
Press Thursday:
II have good authority for believing
that the Transvaal reply will be IN.
satisfactory TO tho British govern
ment."
The Morning Post, in the second
edition prints a special dispatch from
Pietermaritzburg, capital of Natal,
saying the reply is "truculent, loqua-
cious and blasphemous.
The Manchester Guardians cores
pondent at Cape Town, telegraphs that
the outlook Is OF the gloomiest char
acter.
The Cape Town papers themselves
take q more hopeful view OF the situs-
ton, basing their belief on the prob
able acceptance by President Kruger
OF the franchise measures suggested
in Mr.. Chamberlain latest dispatch.
But even they admit 1t is impossible
to learn or foreahadow President Kru-
gers attitude toward suzsrainy OF
Great Britain, which, after all, is still
the main issue.

TARTAR ALLOWED CLEARANCE.
British Office Deemed IL Unwise
To Interfere With American
Tronanorta

Transports.
A Washington dispatch says; Clear.
snce papers have been allowed the
Tartar ~ Hong Kong, II 10 expected
that she will proossd to the United
States At once.
The information that clearance had
been allowed came In dispatch to
Adiutant General Corbin Thursday
morning from Colonel Metcalf, COM
manding the Twentieth Kansas and
the troops aboard the transport.
1t is supposed that clearance papers
were allowed upon the suggestion of
the British foreign Office to the British
governor at Hong Kong that 1t would
be unwise 10 interfere with American
transports.
Another dispatch from Colonel Met
calf, in reply to one sent Wednesday,
states that the Tartar was no more
overcrowded and that the food was as
good as on other transports leaving
Manila. He said that the trouble arose
among the discharged regular soldiers
who were returning home on board
the ship.
The incident Is now regarded as
closed. It 10 learned at the state de-
partment that the representations
made TO Mr.. Choate, our ambassador
OF London, on this subject were in
the nature Of q protest.
