the messages of the president. The gen.
eral view at that time was that recogni-
ton of belligerency in itself was not a
casus belh. Up to the present time there
has been no intimation to the state de-
partment that any foreign power enter
tanned even the remotest idea Of giving
recognition to Aguinaldo and his asso-
ciates. On the contrary, there has been
most friendly feeling maintained be-
tween this government and foreign pow
erS throughout the Philippine conflict.
The state department does not share the
apprehension which is said to have arisen
among army officers that China has given
indirect recognition to the Filipinos. This
apprehension grew out of report from
Gen. Otis that horses could not be Sc
cured for cavalry use from China because
they were "contraband of war;
At the state department it is said that
the matter has not assumed form in
volving the recognition of a state of war,
but that Minister Conger reports China's
course is due entirely to certain domestic
regulations prohibiting the expectation
of horses or ponies.
The course which the foreign consuls
at Manila will pursue in connection with
AgUinaldo's communication is matter
of some conjecture among officials here.
At the state department there is no dis
position to limit the consuls in forward
ing the appeal to their respective govern
ments. AS a rule it is quite unusual for
consuls holding exequaters from a friend
ly government and having official relation
with it to carry on communication with
an insurrectionary leader. But it is ap-
preciated that in this case the consuls
are the innocent victims of Aguinaldo's
letter writing. AS military authority is
supreme in the Philippines, any questions
arising as to the course of consuls would
probably be referred to Gen. Otis, but
there is no intimation here that he has
advised of the address or that he will
have any objections to its transmission
by the consuls 1t is rather expected,
however, that the consuls will take oc-
casior to advise with the military au-
thorities as to the proprieties of the sit
uation before taking final action.

Wrought Up over the Critical

CAPE TOWN, Aug. 9.-A dispatch from
Pretoria, capital of the South African
republic, says that the Vol!zsraad has de-
clined to agree to the suggestion of Mr..
Joseph Chamberlain, British secretary of
state for the colonies that the effect the
franchise concessions would have upon
the uitlanders be inquired into by joint
commission. The volksraad, however,
will consider any friendly suggestion.
LONDON, Aug. 9.-AL the dispatches
from the South African correspondents
of the London morning papers take it for
granted that the secret session of the

the rejection of Mr.. Chamberlain pro-
posal but leave the way open to continue

The Times correspondent at Pretoria

MR.. LAURIER DENIES.
Did Not Decline, Because He Had
Not Received Invitation.

OTTAWA, Ont, Aug. 8.-Mr. DAWN, in
the house of commons today, once more
brought the Fitzpatrick interview to the
attention of the premier. In reply Sir
Wilfrid Laurier said there was an inter-
view in a Washington newspaper which
attributed to him words of a certain
character, but he did not propose to notice
that. The interview was not published by
him, and Mr.. Fitzpatrick put the words
in his mouth for which he was not re-
sponsible. If he wished to say anything
to be published, he would say it himself
in his own way, and not through another.
So far he had received no invitation from
the Chicago authorities to the demonstra-
ton, but he had learned that one was
coming, and when 1t did come he would
certainly treat it with the courtesy that
was due it, not because of the position
he held, but because of the relations
between US and our neighbors."
