THE TRANSVAAL TROUBLE
LARGE ORDERS FOR ARMS PLACED
BY BOERS.
Trade paralyzed at Johannesburg
South African League to Support
Sir Alfred Miners Policy.

NEW YORK, June ga Times ca
bic from London says: The Transvaal
is alleged to be adding to its already
enormous ornaments by large orders
for quick-firing artillery in Germany
and America. The question will soon
arise whether England should permit
Beers to import further a large sup
ply of guns and ammunition intended
for use against us. In this connec-
ton it is very desirable to know if
these Boer orders really have been
placed with American firms, or wheth-
er it is only a mischievous rumor.
The Orange Free State is voting
money for warlike purposes.
The South African League in Cape
Colony is at last about to hold meet
ings in support of Sir Alfred Miners
policy.
Trade in Johannesburg is paralyzed.
Eight thousand people, chiefly women
and children, have left, and trade in
Cape Colony is severely checked.
LONDON, June 25.-The firm atti-
tude of Great Britain appears to have
the desired effect on the Transvaal
complications. The latest cablegrams
from South Africa tell of various semi
official missions for negotiations be-
tween Cape Town, Bloemfontein and
Pretoria, aiming to arrange a fran
chise compromise on basis of five
or six years past residence.
President Kruger is represented as
agreeable to some arrangement, but is
finding considerable difficulty in hand
ling his own conservative elements.
In a reported interview he is alleg-
ed to have said regarding the war ru-
mors that mountains were being made
out of mole hills, and that he was
firmly convinced that Queen Victoria
would never allow letting loose the
dogs of war" over South Africa.
LONDON, June ga Sun ca
from London says: The public mind
of England continues to be monopo-
lied by the situation in the Trans
vaal. 1t is significant fact that the
grievance which is most prominently
paraded in the press gainst the Trans
vaal Government is one which might
be urged with equal validity against
the United States. This is the fact
that the Transvaal naturalization
oath requires a new citizen to for
swear by name all allegiance to the
sovereign or power to which he was
subject. The oath required by the
Transvaal republic is practically iden-
teal with that which thousands of
subjects of the Queen took when they
became citizens of the United States.
The Rhodesian press of Great Brit
ain is denouncing this oath as an out
rageous insult to the British sovereign
and to the manhood of lOVal BritonS,
who, for certain reasons desire to OBJ
tain the franchise in the Boer repub-
lie. This requirement alone, in the
opinion of many newspapers, will JUS
tify the British Government in going
to any length in order to secure its
