Uncle Sam Said to Be Taking
That Attitude.

Washington, March 12.-There is rea-
son to believe that the United States
government is using its good offices to
restore peace between Great Britain
and the South African republics This
has not taken the shape of &, proffer of
mediation. That would be distinctly
repugnant to Great Britain and accord
ing to the rule of international law
which has without exception governed
the state department in the past could
not be volunteered by US until it was
known to be acceptable, to both parties
to the war. But the United States
might very properly serve as an inter
mediary to transmit an appeal for
peace and the terms upon which peace
can be secured.
The United States has successfully
served in this capacity in the past no
tably in the termination of the China
japanese war and it is believed it's good
offices in this line are now being ex-
tended. If this belief is well founded,
then Adelbert Hay, United States con-
sui to Pretoria has been the instrument
for transmitting to the British govern
ment through the double Intervention
of the state department and Ambassa-
dor Choate an application from Presi-
dents Kruger and Stepn to be informed
as to the terms upon which the war can
be ended. The facts in the case win be
fully developed in a day or two

During the greater part of the two

by this government from it's consular
representative at Pretoria embodying
the request of the presidents of the
South African republics for mediation
or intervention with q view to ending
the war now in progress between these
republics and Great Britain as reported
in the public press and if not incom-
patible with the public interest he fur
nish the senate with the copies of such
communication or communications"
Routine business having been con-
cluded, Mr.. RaWlins OUtah) addressed
the senate on our relations with the
Philippines. He had read the bill of Mr..
Spooner comforting authority upon the
president to govern the Philippines I'M

"RULEs AND REGULATIONS"
Instructions Mr.. Sheldon Gives to His
Reporters.

Mr.. Sheldon did not formally open his
conference with Capital reporters with
prayer when he gave them their general
instructions today. It has been general
ly Surmised that he would do so, but he
did not He simply said, Here we are,
and started in.
The instructions embody in a great
measure Mr.. Sheldon's idea of what
ought to be published in a Christian
daily newspaper, and what ought to be
suppressed. They show his idea of how
Jesus would conduct newspaper were
He an editor today. They settle the
point concerning which there has been
the greatest surnise and the most dis
cussion in the press of the country dur
ing the past few weeks-what is Mr..
Sheldon's conception of a Christian
daily newspaper.
The instructions are as follows:
l. Avoid the use of slang in writing
reports, both words and phrases.
2. Submit all interviews to the per-
sons interviewed.
g. If a reporter is assigned to inter-
view a person and the person does not
wish to talk, do not insist upon it. Do
not quote a man unwillingly.
f. No theatrical news of any kind is
wanted.
s. Sporting news-only clean sports
are wanted. Athletic sports and clean
sporting events will be covered.
6. In reporting crime go into the

{. Political stories must be non-par-
tisan.
s. Scandals-Avoid them, waste no
time on them. They will not be
printed.
For tomorrow mornings Capital the
reporters were told to simply cover
their usual assignments, as the advance
copy which Mr.. Sheldon has been
working on will fill much of the local
space.
The reporters viii write up their
stories, turn them in to the city editor,
who will lay them before Mr. Sheldon.
A number of assignments have been
given out concerning special matter
which will appear in the paper during
the week.
The reporters were given to under
stand that they must not use the word

certain political party.
Mr.. Sheldon will occupy Gen. Hud-
sons room.
The request was made of reporters
that they come to Mr.. Popenoe's office
at various intervals for information.

from the editorial rooms of the Capital
Mr.. Sheldon will run no patent medi-
cine advertisements or tobacco adver-
tisements. 1t is understood too that he
will accept no amusement advertising

smiled.
Il have a rule that there shall be no
smoking in my office" remarked Mr..
Popenoe, but after Mr.. Sheldon went out
he opened a box of cigars and filed the
pockets Of the reporters. and during the
day fresh box has been opened as
fast as one is emptied.
1 don't believe you could run a. news
paper more than week without smok-
ing, Mr.. Sheldon" remarked Mr.. Will
let's.
But Mr.. Sheldon smiled and shook his
head.
I'VE may have you smoking before
the week is OUT said Mr.. Popenoe ban
teringly.
Il guess not" replied Mr.. Sheldon.
Mr.. Sheldon invited the correspond
ents to call and see him in his sane
tum," but one of them suggested that it
would be a kindness to him to keep
away from the Capital Office altogether,
and they all entered into compact not
to go near the Capital Office, except to
the business department.
After Mr.. Sheldon had gone Mr.. Pop
enoe said:
Il invited you to come here, gentle
men, in order that you might fully un-
derstand Mr.. Sheldon's situation. If
each of you were to go to him individ-
ually he would not like to be discour-

glad if you will come to me instead of
the men. My instructions concerning
theatrical reports will be covered in

In the editorial matter?''
Yes
Have you given any instructions re-
garding praying?" asked Mr.. Willetts.
No, sir, we have done our praying
before this" replied Mr.. Sheldon with
smile

Sheldon, will set forth the scope of the
paper, and will. I think, answer many
of your questions. Many Of these 9TH

ON The RUN.
Kentucky Republicans Fleeing
From Impending Arrest.

Frankfort, Ky, March 1.-THE war
scare here has again apparently fiat
tened, though leaders on both sides still
express grave fears as to the ultimate
outcome. Belief among the Republicans
that attempts will be made to arrest
Republican legislators In connection
with the assassination of Gov. Goebel
has resulted in several members leav-
ing town. Democratic officials refuse
either to confirm or deny the reports
that such warrants have been issued al
though it is admitted that more arrests
will take place within a few days. =
It is asserted that Gov. Taylor is be-
ing urged to move the executive offices
to London, where he will be safe from
possible arrest, but that so far he has
refused to ente -tain the idea Both
houses of the legislature met in the
state house this morning. In anticipa-
tion of a possible attempt by the state
troops to prevent the meeting quite a
crowd gathered around the state house
square at the hour of meeting but the
members of the legislature were allowed
to meet without moleStation.
The squad Of militia under Lieutenant
Pea41e who started for London as an
escort for Secretary of State Powers
and Captain Davis, returned to Frank
fort this morning. Outside of this, how
ever, no reinforcements arrived and it
is stated now that no more are expected.
Adjutant General Collier arrived here
from Louisville and Immediately held
a short conference with Governor Tay-
lor.
Gen. Collier said afterward that Gov.
Taylor had no intention of leaving
Frankfort or of bringing any more
troops here at present. Shortly after
Gen. Golfers arrival at the state house
grounds Sheriff Suter appeared and as
sured Gen. Collier that no warrant for
his arrest has been issued. Gen. Col

AT A BOER CAMP.
a Judge of the Supreme Court Un-
hitches Horses and Greases WAGONS

New York, March IA correspon-
dent of the Times, writing from Lorenzo
Marques, says: A Dutchman gives an
interesting account of a visit he recent
ly paid to the Boer camp at Colenso. He
made short stay at the tent of Gen
Joubert, who at the time was engaged
with his secretary and the telegraph
wires, while close at hand and under
the same canvas his sturdy spouse was
placidly peeling potatoes as If no fatal
issues were hanging in the balance. The
rites of her hospitality were observed
by the commandant geenral ordering
the native woman Eva, who has accom-
panied him and his good spouse
through many a fierce campaign, to
bring the national beverage, coffee
At the camp an Irish fusilier, who had
just fallen into the hands of the BOers
remarked in conversation: Sure. all
the Beers olive met have been Irish
men" Certainly the collection was
a. most cosmopolitan one. There were a
few AfrikanderS among them. but the
majority were either Americans, Ital-
ians or Greeks. In the near neighbor-
hood Judge Kock and the general were
cracking whips and stimulating lazy
mules into activity, hitching and un-
hitching harness. greasing wheels and
notching disselbooms as if such were
the regular occupations of the chair
man of the Volksraad and the judge of
the supreme court.
