ARREST OF JIMINEZ.
Washington Authorities in the Dark
as to Cause of 1t.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3O.-Without ad-
vices from Cuba respecting the reported
arrest of Jiminez at Santiago by order
OF Gen. Wood, the officials here can only
conjecture the motive for tho order. 1t
is suggested that Jiminez may have dis
regarded the or ginal order net to land from
his ship, in violation of the health regu-
lations of the port, and again, Gen. Wood
may have taken the ground that he was
warranted in preventing the use of Cuban
soil, while under American control, for
the organization or direction of hostile
movements against a government with
which the United States is at peace.

strenuous efforts to induce the United
States government to cooperate with
Great Britain in demanding justice for

South Africa, called upon Secretary Hay
and had long conference, pointing out
that about 1000 Americans were among
the persons who are seeking to benefit
through the intervention of the British
government, and urging that they were
entitled to the protection of their own
government.
Secretary Hay gave assurances Kat
the state department would do all posi-
