WAR IN SOUTH AFRICA.
Transvaal Situation Growing
More Gloomy Daily.
Htiable Picture Drawn OF the Situation
by the Correspondent of the London
Daily Mail-Transvaal Onicers Search
ing Trains-Raads In Secret Session.
Panicky Feeling In Johannesburg.

LONDON, Sept. 4.-The Johannes
burg correspondent of The Daily Mail
who paints a gloomy and pitiable pic
ture of the conditions of things there
says:
1T is almost a case Of wholesale eXo-
dus and panic. Business is paralyzed;
the price of food stuffs are rapidly ris-
ing; half the houses are empty, and
the others are tenanted by people who
do not pay rent, the landlords being
glad enough to have them as occupants
in order to insure some sort of protec-
tlon to the property.
"The tension has reached the snap
ping point. Bankruptcy and starvation
are staring people in the face. Another
fortnight Of suspense will result in q
complete commercial collapse. The
banks are thronged with people anxious
to withdraw their gold, and the rail-
ways are besieged by those who wish
to get away.
"Rumor fixes the number Of war
rants issued at 147, including the rep
resentatives of all the London daily
newspapers. Mr.. Moneypenny, editor
of The Star, it is reported, has evadec
the detectives sent to arrest him anc
has succeeded in crossing the border.
"It Is believed that the mediation OF
Mr.. Fischer, the representative of the
Orange Free State, has failed"
The Cape Town correspondent of The
Daily Mail says: The Transvaal au-
thorities ar forwarding huge quanti-
ties of Mauser ammunition from Pre-
toria to Blocmfontain. On Friday l.
500 900 rounds arrived at the Orange
Free State capital"
All the special dispatches to the
London morning papers from South Al
rica indicate that the correspondent:
have got the impression that the re-
ply of the Transvaal government t(
Mr.. Chamberlain's latest note will bt
an impertnent rejection of the suggest
ed conference at Cape Town and
threat to withdraw the five-year fran
chise offer.
A special dispatch from johannesburg
says 1t Is understood the charge
against Mr.. Pakeman. editor of thu
Transvaal Leader, who was arrested
on Saturday, will be reduced from sedi
tion to contravention of the press laws
Mr.. Hoskin, the proprietor OF thu
Transvaal Leader, is chairman of the
Outlander council and president of the
johannesburg chamber of commerce.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
trsdstsssts Weekly Report on the con-
dition Of Business.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Bradstreets
says: With an exceptionally heavy
business already booked for the lat
ter portion OF the year the mercantile
community faces the trade situation
with confidence, testified to by very
generally firm prices and with quo
tations In a number of lines showing
further marked advances. The most
conspicuous exception to this IS found
In cereals, which are weak and declin-
Ing. Lower prices for wheat, corn and
oats point to speculative liquidation
Of tired holders. who, with confidence In
the future of prices, have weakened
under unsatisfactory foreign demand,
larger receipts ana the near approach
OF expected heavier crop movements.
Corn crop prospects. though less rosy,
still point to a full yield. Cotton. toe.
has weakened slightly, chiefly because
Of advlces of rains at the South,
though Texas crop advlces are still
unsatisfactory, and stories Of perma-
nent damage are forthcoming.
With these exceptions, most staples
are either firmly held or evince decided
progress upward, notable in this lat
ter respect being iron and steel OF all
kinds. but particularly pig iron. which
now Is the center OF trade interest.
owing to heavy demand, particularly
for foundry grades, at advancing
prices. Trade reports would seem to
indicate that a good part OF the pro-
ductive capacity of the country is al
ready engaged for the first half Of
1900.
August witnessed a general gain in
the prices of cotton and wooden goods,
evidently the outcome of active demand,
judging from reports from leading
cities.
Scarcity of material and backward
deliveries of same are reported by
clothing manufacturers at many points
north, west and south. Discussion of
the proposed consolidation of Fall
River mill interests has been less
marked this week, but there IL confid-
ence in some circles that something of
the sort will ultimately transpire.
Among other textiles strength is spec
tally notable in hemp in sympathy
with London, whence come reports
tHdl Ihiiippine sHlpiHslts Will SHOTtly
cease.
Increased strength has been impaired
to hides and leather this week by the
launching of the new upper leather
combination. Boot and shoe manu-
facturers are actively employed, but
the margin Of profit Is reported to be
exceedingly small, owing to keen COM
petition, and this. among other reasons,
may be responsible for the rumors of a
great combination Of shoe manufact-
urers. projected.
Lumber retains all its old activity
and in some lines manifests new
strength as regards prices.
The refined sugar war apparently
still continues, one result being the
stimulation of consumption to a notable
extent
Busines failures for the last week
are the smallest report for a long
time, numbering only 131 as compared
with 154 last week, 1874 in this week a
year ago. 1873 in 1897, 1886 In 1896 and 1874
In 1895.

Stop Work at Many Places.
LONDON, Aug. 5.-The general strike
of seamen and steamer firemen which
has been thereatened for some time has
been declared. the shipowners refusing
to accept the invitation of the seamen's
and firemen's union for a conference in
regard to fixing the rate Of wages for
flremen and sailors on steamers at e6
and for sailors on sailing vessels at "a
monthly, a slight advance in the av-
erage wages now paid at the various
British ports.
Reports as to the effect and thorough
ness of the movement have not yet been
received except from South Shields
here, 1t is stated, 1000 men have gone
out
Many meetings have been held in the
vicinity of London docks. the speakers
expressing the determination of the
men to remain idle until their demands
have been granted. But. traffic at this
port has not yet been affected.
1t is not likely that the strike will be
completely organized for several days
and until then it's extent will not be
known or its result keenly felt
The manifesto of the union ordering
the strike includes all the ports In the
United Kingdom.

The Olympia VIII start From Gibraltar
On September IL.


GIBRALTAR, Sept. 5.-The United
States cruiser Olympia, with Admiral
Dewey on board, arrived here and fired
the usual salute in honor of the gar
rison, and the compliment was re-
turned by the batteries on shore and
the British battleship Devastation.
Admiral Dewey is slightly indisposed
at present and intends to live ashore
during his stay here.
Horatio L. Sprague, United States
consul at Gibraltar. an old friend Of
Admiral Dewey, warmly welcomed the
latter.
When the American commander
landed the batteries again saluted.
With the Second battalion Of the
Grenadier Guards in attendance, Ad-
miral Dewey drove in the carriage of
General Sir Robert Biddulph, the gov
ernor and commander-in-chief to the
palace, for the purpose of paying Cen
eral Biddulph an official visit.
The Olympia is expected to sail Sep
tember IL direct for New York. The

SCRANTON, Pa, Sept. 1.-An agree

wages, on the Rock Island basis. takes
the place of the per diem system OF the
old Lackawanna management, and the

men were In conference, and as their
grievances are similar to the engineers,
there is hope that all the differences
will now be quickly adjusted.
