Ready For War.

New York, July 25.-A dispatch to the
Times from London says: The attention
Of all England is again turned toward the
Transvaal. The Times says Premier
Schreiner of Cape Colony cannot incite
Kruger to make further concessions
Much unrest is manifested here and this
is not likely to be lessened in the next few
days. An authority of highest character
made the following statement today: .
UNLESS every demand of England be
complied with there will be war. This
has been the intention of the government
from the outset. Miner was sent to
South Africa for the purpose of establish
ing the suzerainty of England not only in
foreign but in domestic affairs. The
Outlanders' desires were thoroughly con-
sidered and decided to be reasonable. If
Miners demands are granted it will es-
tabllsh England's right to interefer in
the domestic affairs of the Transvaal, if
not there will be war. Lord Salisburys $
resignation may be expected within a
few months. His wife's illness may be
gwen as the cause. He is tired of the
game and anxious to retire. Only two
men are thought of to succeed him and
only two-Joseph Chamberlain and the
Duke of Devonshre. Public opinion as
cribed to Chamberlain too much shrewd-
ness rather than too much ability. 1t is
felt that he is too much of a politician, too
little of a statesman. Every little detail
of the campaign has been mapped out.
1t will not be a repetition Of former fights
with the Beers. 1T will be rather a cam
pagn on the lines Of kitchener's advance
in the Soudan. In the coming conflict the
whole British empire will take part. The
English volunteers have been sounded
and they are ready. Australia, New
Zealand, Canada and India have been
heard from and will be called upon

Cause of Resignation.

London, July 25.-The Johannesburg
correspondent Of the Standard says:
president Kruger sent letter to the
Volksraad restgning the presidency in
consequence of the refusal to give him a
free hand as to the dynamite MONOPOLY.
he attended the meeting of the raad this
afternoon, during the consideration Of his
letter. 1t is not yet known whether his
resignation is conditional. The news was
kept secret at Pretoria.
The Daily Telegraphs Pretoria cores
pendent says: There is no likelihood of
the presidents resignation, which is not
desired at the present moment in the in
terests of the Uitlanders or the Trans
vaalerS.

ECkelS Political Views.

New York, July 25.-James H. Eckels.
ex-controller of the currency, says in an
interview printed today:
Il think it more than likely that the
senate finance committee will agree on
something in the way Of monetary legis-
lation, though it will be far from radical.
When 1t comes to a finality it may be
nothing more than a half hearted decla-
ration for the maintenance Of the metals
at parity, the interchangeabiity Of
greenbacks for gold and vice versa and
the enlargement of bank note circulation
based on bonds. The president thus far
has had his party well in hand and if he
takes hold in dead earnest, ought to be
able to get something of real value on the
subject out Of the committee. There is.
however, danger of a feeling prevailing
that the money problem has already solv-
ed itself and nothing further is needed.
Such course would be a serious mistake
and one the administration would ulti-
mately suffer from.
'Tt is unfortunate for the country that
the democratic party is in such an utterly
demoralized condition. This condition
has made the republican leaders indffer-
ent TO mucn sentiment that would have
proved effective in both preventing new
and remedying old wrongs, if the opposi-
ton had leadership which commanded
public confidence and a following made
up less of the element Of discomfort. The
strength of the republican party today is
very largely, if not wholly, in the weak
ness of democrats. Such a condition Of
affairs cannot but be bad for public good
1t places the voter in the embarrassing
position of being compelled to make
choice between the party made up wholly
of radicals promising to do only the
things which would disturb the country's
prosperity and one containing many con-
servatives, but led wholly by political
leaders, who consider the advancement Of
party the first essential IN the discharge
of public duty.
1.-The republican party, with the ad-
vantage with it, to give the country a
sound and complete monetary
system. ought to advance the civil serv-
ice. 1t ought to make impossible the con- !,
tinilance on the part Of the democrats
Of the leadership which has characterized
that party since 1896. That there has not !,
been any financial legislation, that the /,
civil service system has been seriously in |,

MUCH SUFFERING
Of Party Which Went In
Search of Gold.
ONLY ONE IS NOW ALIVE
And This is Woman Who Has Just
Returned on the Steamer Bertha
Her Tale is a Very Sad One
Scurvy Took Them Off.

San Francisco, July 25.-The steamer
Bertha arrived this morning from St. Mi
chaels, via Unalaska, with 81 passengers
and about $1,OOO,oo0 in gold, $3.50, 900 Of
which is in charge of Purser Keyes.
The largest amount brought down by
one person is $4,000. The purser says
there Is wealth in the Cape Nome district
and declares there is no truth in the
stories of failure to find gold which have
been published.
The Bertha brings down an interesting
story of hardships, disease and death in
the far north, and new facts are learned
regarding the details Of the loss Of the
Bens' expedition. Out of a party of II
people. who lett Port Townsend June H.,
1898, for Kotzebue sound to prospect for
gold, there is only one survivor, and that
is a woman, Mrs H. w. Bens Of Clay
City, Ky.
For u weeks she watched over her sick
husband, far from any habitation, with
no one to aid her, and finally when he
died she was left entirely alone in the
bleak wilderness. She then started over
the snow waist deep in what seemed a
AopicSo QueSl LOT human ala. After walk
ing nine miles she found cabin, in which
there We're three fishermen. No sooner
had she reached this shelter than symp-
toms of scurvy developed. She was ten
derly cared for, however, and finally
reached St. Michaels and took passage for
San Francisco on the Bertha. She will
go to Bay City, Mich, where she has
relatives.
1t was not until she reached Nulato,
on her way SOUTH that she heard that
the members of the parties which had
been left behind on the steamer Elk, had
all died during the winter and spring
from scuryy, and that all had been buried
on a small island. These unfortunates
were as follows:

Money Will be Refunded.

New York, July Pa special to the
Herald from Washington says: Secretary
Hay has called upon the Nicaraguan gov
ernment to refund to the American mer-
chants the amount which they We're ille-
gally compelled to pay for port and other
duties during the recent revolution at
Bluefields. Several American merchants
We're made to pay these duties twice, be-
cause officers representing the revolution
lists and the Nicaraguan government were
in control of different ports at the same
time. AS result of careful investiga-
ton, the state department has now re-
quested Nicaragua to refund to the mer-
chants the amount illegally collected by
irresponsible officials. The state Depart
ment has fully met the charges made by
Nicaragua that American merchants
We're involved in the revolution inaugu-
rated to overthrow the government by,
showing that although some Americans.
may have been in sympathy with the
revolutionists. they did not take an ac--
tive part. 1t is the expectation of officials
that Nicaragua will now refund the over
payments without further protests.

son of the American consul at that port,
has been murdered by the Yaqui Indians.
The further information is given that the

Mexican forces commanded by Gen. Torres,

Otis Will Rel main.

New York, July Pa special to the
Herald from Washington says: The
president has no intention of relieving
General Otis from the military command
in the Philippines. He had thought SER
iously at one time of assigning an officer
of high rank to command the forces in
the field, leaving General Otis to perform
the administrative duties of governor
general. The president had two propo-
sitions before him, one to make Lawton
the commanding officer of the fighting
to his old place. The latter assignment
would mean the subordination of General
Otis as governor general to General Mer-
rift, who outranks him by regular as we'll
as volunteer title. Both these ideas have
now been abandoned. Speaking for the
president, cabinet officer said:
why should General Otis be relieved
unless he had some reason for asking to
be sent back to the United States. The
president has had no reason to find fault
with his work 1t is true he has not end
ed the war, but he has certainly made
much progress, and has shown himself
equal to every emergency. He has taken
good care of the troops, and has shown
himself capable of handling large bodies
of men. He has made known his general
plans of the operations when the cam
paign begins in the fall, and the experts
here, together with the president con-
slider that he has a thorough and practi-
cal program mapped out for his future
work. To remove him now would be an
admission that he had failed. We cannot
admit this, for certainly the official dis
patches from the Philippines show a ma
teral extension of our lines far beyond
the points controlled by Spain. To place
a new commander in control of the troops
and make him Independent of General
Otis would cause no end of friction There
can be but one intrusted with plenary
powers, and ! can repeat that the presi-
dent is well atisfied to trust General Otis
with those powers
Notwithstanding this administrative
view favorable to General Otis, it can be
stated that some officials here have pri-
vate information which tends to confirm
the press reports of the unpopularity of
General Otis with many officers of his
command.
