BID FOR BAsUTOs.
Beers Seek to Enlist Services of the
Natives.

CAPE TOWN, Octl 24-The following
advices have been received here from
Maseru, Basptoland, dated Oct. %:
ga reliable native lately visited laager
of Orange Free State troops, just op-
posite Maseru. He found 1t to consist of
wagons, surrounded by turf piled three
feet high. He noticed only few Mausers.
The Boer commandant questioned him
regarding the feeling Of the Basutos and
the paramount chiefA Lothardi, and In
order to draw the coInmandant out the
native replied that the chief sided with
the Beers. Then the commandant replied
that the two republics wished to kill the
British, and then take over the country
and return to the Basutos, the territory
the Free State formerly took away from
them. Those of the British they did not
kill they would drive put of the country.
The commandant wished to know from
Lothardi and other criefs whether they
would fight the Beers or the British, as
his contingent were anxious to help else
where. He acknowledged that his men
were afraid of the Basutos because their
wives and their cattle, as we'll as other
property were within reach Of the
Basutos, and he wished to enter into q
conference signing the same, giving a
very. satisfactory recompenSe to the
trihesmen for assisting the Beers. Fall
ing this, If the Basutos. would give a writ
ten undertaking not to assist either side,
the commandant said, his force would
withdraw from the Basutoland border,
and go to the assistance of their country
men where the fighting was hottest. The
Beers on the Basutoland frontier accord
ing to the best information obtainable at
Maseru, number about. 2,500."
LONDON. Oct. A.-The colonial office
this afternoon published a cable dispatch
received from the British high commits
sioner in South Africa. Sir Alfred MilEer
communicating significant dispatch
from Sir George Lagden, the British resi-
dent commissioner in l3asuto land, tal!-
ing attention to the recl1lessness of the
Basutos who he says he has been trying
to calm The resident commissioner ADDS:
"Our policy however, has been made
difficult by the clustering Of the e ers,
who have freely threatened to attack
Maseru and ether stations These threats,
combined with intriguing, have contrib
uted to arouse excitement among the ma
tives I wish to placeEit on record that
the Beers have unWisely attempted to
shake the allegiance of the Basutos and
frustrate our efforts toward tranquility,

LONDON, Oct. 24.-1'he sailing Of the
channel squadron today for Gibraltar is
now regarded by the keenest observers as
an indication that some unexpected a
tack on British interests is possible. The
magnitude of the preparations for the
war; which are out of all proportion to
the requirements of the military situation,
can be adequately explained on the theory
that the government suspected that some
great power would be tempted to seize
the opportunity for striking a sudden
blow, or carrying out a deeply cherished
policy.
The quarter from which an attack of
this kind may come is unmistakab,e. The
Russian press has license to criticise the
English policy in South Africa in the
most acrid way, and rumor that Herat
may be occupied IS already in the air
British interests in Persia are so large
that g Russian seizure of the position in
Western Afghanistan would be a seri-
Gus stroke aimed directly against free
trade. That seems a more likely menace
than the forcing of the Dardanclles by
the Russian Black sea feet The move
ment of a powerful French fleet to the
Levant comedies with the circulation Of
a rllmor that the Russian advance may
be resumed in Asia while England is
preoccupied by war in South Africa. 1t
also fits in with the explanation Of a Sc
cret agreement between England and
Germany. This was that England, in re-
turn for a free hand in South Africa in
settling the Transvaal question, had
agreed not to make any hostile use Of her
fleet if the German emperor were to de-
eide to follow up his visit to Jerusalem
with serious attempt to colonize any
portion Of Asia Minor and to bring 1t
under German influence.
NEW YORK, Oct. PA special to the

administration, in an interview, stated
