 Copyright, 1S99 by Rudyard Kipling) All we have of freedom-a.l we use or know This our fathers fought for us, long and
 loug ago, Ancient right unnotlced as the breath we
 draw Leave to die by no mans leave, underneath So they bought us lnedom-not at little Wherefore must we watch the king, lest our
 game be lost. Over all things certain, this is sure indeed Suffer not the old king for we know the
 breed. How so'great their clamor, whoso'er their
 claim, Suffer not the old king under any name Here is naught unproven-here is naugilt to
 learn. It is written what shall fall, if the king re-

Madrid Sept. 2S.-The Spanish cab inet will resign tomorrow as the result of irreconciable differences among the ministers regarding proposals for na- tional defence. This decision was taken at the cabinet council tonight.

The minister of finance, Senor Villaverde, was unable to agree with the suggestions of General Pola vieya; and a ministerial crisis followed. The premier Senor Don Francisco Stl- vela, will therefore go tomorrow to San Sebastian to place the resignation of the entire cabinet in the hands of the queen regent.
 The Silvela ministry, winch was con- stituted on March 8, 1899, was made up as follows: President of the council, Senor Don Francisco Silvela; minister of foreign affairs, Marquis Tidal; min ister of justice.

William Bliss, President of the Boston and Albany Railroad Company, Bos-

| William Bliss, President of the Boston l and Albany Railroad Company, Bos- | ton, Mass:
 | My Dear Sir--ln reply to your letter l inquiring whether this company is will ing to modify it's offer touching the lease of the Boston and Albany, l think it proper to state the position of the New York Central company in the matter This company has recently consolidated its system and now controls it's con- nections west and south. The arrange ment is working to the entire satisfac- tion of all parties inter asted, It was deemed advisable, in furtherance of this policy, to complete our system in the east by having our own line extend into New England, thereby securing to this railroad the advantages of the central ization of the management of its busi- ness. As the New York Central and the Boston and Albany have been work ing together tremendously and to their mutual benefit for many years it seem- ed natural that we should seek union with the Boston and Albany railroad. The result of the negotiations has been the proposed lease, to which you now refer. It is our desire that the lease shall contain every reasonable and prop CT safeguard for the protection of the stockholders of the Boston and Albany and fer the preservation of it's property If, in it's present form, the proposed lease is deficient in these particulars we are willing that it should be so modified as to secure these objects. Certain of your stockholders have insisted that the amount of rental is insufficient and that, in fact. the property is capable of earn ing during the lease a net revenue con- siderably in excess of the rental. In view of the constant demands for in- creased facilities and the constantly in- creasing expense of the management of ny considers the rental offered quite as large as it is warranted, by any prudent view of the proba ble revenue of the property during the long term of the lease, in offering. Our offer was based upon a most careful examination of the property, is the best that we would be justified in making, and cannot be in- creased: and while, as we have previ- 0usly stated to you, we consider it ad- vantageous to the New York Central system to have the Boston and Albany as a part, ytt rather than assume any larger financial obligations we would prefer to withdraw from the negotia- tions. Yours very truly,
 S. R. Galloway, President.

Dundee Scotland Sept. 2S.-on re- ceiving the freedom of the city of Dun- dee to-day A. J. Balfour, the a1st lord of the treasury, and government leader in the house of commons, said the gov ernment had 'longed for and had striv- en for peaceful and honorable solu- tion of the perennial South African diff faculties" and If that honorable so- luton does not prove q peaceful solu- tion the fault rests on other heads than ou1s." MT. Balfour would not say he had given up all hope but he now spoke in a very different tone from which he should have done month or even a fortnight ago. They had reached q point, he said, when if he judged alright those responsible for the policy of the Dutch republic refused to give way, and a point on which we cannot and will not give way" This statement caused an outburst of cheering. Con tinuing, Mir. Balfour remarked: 'The interests of South Africa, civilization and national honor have all made such a course impossible for us." This call ed forth renewed cheers.
