BoER TROOPS ARE READY.
They Can March On Natal at Two
Hours Notice.

London, Sept. IF the Transvaal
situation has changed at all since yes
terday it is for the worse The Boer
request for the explanation as to the
massing of British troops on the
frontier of the Transvaal has an omin-
Gus note of irritation and impatience,
which, at such a critical stage. can
scarcely be Interpreted as anything but
a defiance.
Both here and in Cape Colony the
tension and the arming continue
Whether tornorrow's cabinet council
will afford immediate relief is still a
question of great doubt The more
conservative believe that the cabinet
will only put time limit upon The me-
gotiationS and that the interim will
merely be a repetition of the anxious
times which have marked the past few
weeks.
Cape Town advices say the Afrikand-
ers regard the latest Boer reply as eva
siye, while others regard it as designed
TO entangle the two governments in
further negotiations. The average
opinion of the British press is inclined
to regard it as the straw which would
break the back of the most long suffer-
ing diplomatic camel.
The second edition of the Morning
Post today contains a special dispatch
from Peitermaritzburg. capital of Ma
tai, saying an ultimatum would be for
warded to the Beers today. This is
scarcely credible, however, as every
well informed source here believes that
the cabinet will decide upon the mad
visibility Of an ultimatum.
The same correspondent adds that
the Beers have received, or will re-
ceive a dispatch from Sir Alfred Mil
ner the governor Of Cane COLONY and
British high commissioner of South

Africa, demanding the release of Mr..
Pakeman, the editor of the Transvaal
Leader, who was arrested Sept. on the
charge of high treason
Continuing, the correspondent says
500 Beers have left Pretoria for Stand
erton and declares that the Pietermar-
itzburg troops are ready to march at
two hours notice.
The London edition of the Standard
and Diggers' News, the official Boer
organ. today says: We can state that
the diplomatic correspondence between
the Transyaal and the colonial office
is of a reassuring nature, and that the
dispute has now narrowed to an issue
which should make q settlement pos
sible and even speedy. The Transvaal
is prepared for all eventualities. but
remains hopeful of peaceful settle
melt."
Nothing which can be learned here
tends to confirm the foregoing state
ment, and owing to the pro-Boer source
from which it emanates, it is regarded
with suspicion.
The special correspondent of the Pail
Mall Gazette at Cape Town, in a dis
patch dated today, says: ut is be-
lieved in Afrikander circles here that
to a sudden issue, and that war may
possibly break out within Weight
hours. 1t is supposed that the first act
on their part will be an advance on
Laing's Neck, the sole route from the
Transvaal to Natal. 1t is also rumored
there is plot at Pretoria to stimuli
taneously blow up the British agency
there
1t may be pointed out in connection
with the foregoing dispatch that the
Pail Mall Gazette has not been con-
spicuous for the accuracy or judgment
of its South African specials, and too
much credence should not be placed on
the present adyices.

THE SONS OF VETERANS.

Detroit, Mich, Sept. Whether
there is really any friction between the
Sons of Veterans and the G. A. r., and
whether the two societies shall in the
future camp together are the serious
questions being considered by the
eighteenth annual encampment of the
Sons of Veterans, which began here
this afternoon. Opinion among the
delegates on the matter of camping to-
gether with the veterans of the G. A..
R.. is divided.

tons committee a resolution fixing the

that the Sons camp with the veterans

men who went to San Francisco two
weeks ago to welcome the Idaho regi-

heart edness evidenced by the railroad

The counter offer of Adjutant Cen
eral Weaver to have the regiment re-
turn via Portland and take the honors
of Boise, is not. being seriously consid-
cred by the boys. nearly all of whom
favor the disbanding of the regiment
at Pocatello, which was the first Idaho
town to extend an invitation. AS COM
pany was recruited here and is the
most distinctive body in the regiment,
their influence is regarded as a sure
winning factor in the friendly contest
as to whether Pocatello or Boise shall

really desires is possession of the

but will never sacrifice their independ-

After eulog;zing Mr. Gladstone's ac-
ton of retrocession in 1881 as a noble
deed, President Kruger said that if it
now came to fighting, the Almighty
would be the arbiter. He urged the
members of the raad to show modera-

Colonel JOuaust Refuses Permission to Take Dispositions of
SchwartZk0ppen and PaniZZardi

Rennes, Sept. To-day came the be-
mining of the end of the Dreyfus trial.
With the speech of the government
commissary, Major Carriere, the case
entered upon the final stage OF plead
ings and the verdict will be delivered
on Monday. There is even talk tonight
of the trial ending tomorrow by hold
ing an extra afternoon session for NJ
Labori's speech and the deliberations
of the judges. This, however, is con-
sidered unlikely, as the government is
anxious to have the Judgment withheld
over Sunday, in order to avert demon
strations, which would probably result
in bloodshed on a day when the work
men are free.
The government is not only fearful
regarding Rennes, but is particularly
concerned regarding Paris and other
large towns where passions have been
heated, and the verdict, which ever
way it is given, ispractically certain
to give rise to trouble. 1t is under
stood that the government has init
mated its desire to the president of the
courtmartial, Colonel Jouaust, and

LIKE FRACTIONS CHILDREN.
How Some Of the Filipinos Are Treat
ed By the Americans.

Manila, Sept. IA detachment of Fill
ipinos make demonstrations nightly
around linus, firing volleys upon the
American outposts. The Americans
have thus far not replied, except on
Tuesday night, when two companies of
the Fourth infantry sailed out and
fired two volleys in the direction of the
disturbers, who disappeared immedi-
ately.
The secret service has learned that
Aguinaldo has preferred charges
against the general commanding in
the Cavite province for refusing to
obey an order TO attack linus.
The Americans treat the Filipinos
more like fractions children than enc
mics. Proofs have been obtained that
the mayor and five members of the
council are active insurgent sympa-
thizers, and many insurgent soldiers
are visiting the town in disguise. There
is no desire to stop them, however, as
it is thought display of the Ameri-
can resources and the efforts to give
the Filipinos good government will
have a beneficial effects.

President Kruger Tells of the De-
signs of Great Britain.
New York, Sept. THE World to-
day publishes the following dispatch
from Paul Kruger, president of the
South African republic, in response to
message sent by that paper:
Il gladly accede to your request to
put the Boer side before the American
public The present agitation against
this republic emanates partly from a
certain section of British residents, to
whom the existence of the republic
which embraces the most fourishing
parts Of South Africa, is standing
eye-sore. and who suffer from the pre-
vailing lingo mania; partly also from
mining capitalists who, not content
with having here the best mining laws
in the world. wish also to have COM
plete control of all legislation and adj
ministration.
The franchise voting question was
taken UP by England because it was
thought the republic would not yield
on that point. Now that the altered
franchise does not materially differ
from the American-it is in many re-
spects easisr-the agitation has become
worse. The object clearly is the de-
struction of our republic and the COM
plete control of the richest mines in
the world.
The press, entirely controlled by
capitalists, spreads unprecedented mis-
representation and prejudice through
out the world against the Boer repub-
lie.
we are determined to defend to the
utmost that freedom and self govern
ment for which our people have shed
blood in every. part of South Africa.
Though Wee have no such powerful
friend as you proved to Venezuela and
TO other republics, we have strong
faith that the cause of freedom and
republicanism will triumph in the
end"

miles north of this city, and seventeen
men have been employed there for some

ports the discovery of a rich vein of
copper ore by Casper prospectors in
the Owl Creek mountains, 100 miles
northwest of Casper, near Deranch, on
the line of the Casper-Lander stage
line. The vein is four feet wide and
has been located for half a mile, and
is rich. There is a rush of prospectors
to that locality, and many claims have

Making Preparations For Beginning
Campaign In Philippines.
FOR AN EARLY MOVEMENT
HoSTILITIES MAY COMMENCE
IN OCTOBER.
Proposition to Form Another Corps
and Pursue the Filipinos In An
other Part Of the Island of Luzon
Fight at San Rafael and Rebel
Prisoner Captured.

Washington, Sept. THE activity in
the war department and the close figur-
ing that is being done regarding the
available force in the Philippines, in
dlcates an early movement. 1t has
been known that forward movement
was contemplated in November. but
there are indications that the campaign
may begin at least a month earlier if
there should be favorable weather con-
dlt1ons. By Oct. l General Otis will
have an army of 81, 900 effective fight
ing men. With the arrival at Manila
OF the other troops now being raised
1t is suggested there may be formed
another corps for the purpose of pur-
suing the Filipinos in some other part
OF the island of LuZon.
In this connection it is known many
officers look with favor upon the sug-
gestion that an army should be landed
at Lingayen and move down the Dag
upan railway, thus taking the army of
Aguinaldo in the rear. This will ne
cessitate the cooperation of the navy
and the officials of the navy depart
ment have consulted with the war de-
partment as to what can be done to
advantage in this direction. The navy
