St Louis, June Former Governor
William J. Stone is preparing the an
sver of the street railway union to the
injunction proceedings instituted in
the federal court some time ago In
portion of the answer Governor Stone

thorizing such an injunction as IS

court to the petition of Attorney Gen
eral Smyth in the suit brought on be-
half of the state. asking for nearly
$500, 600 for alleged violat tons of the
maximum freight rate law. The docu-
defenses being set up One is that the
corporation is organized under the laws
of Utah 1t is also claimed that the
state supreme court has not original
jurisdiction, inasmuch as this is prac-
tically ceremonial suit, and finally it
claims that the maximum rate law is
unconstitutional.

London Thinks War Is over.

London une 5.-The BOer military
power is now completely broken and
the war is practically over, although
the complete occupation of the coun-
try will take some time.
President Kruger may form a band
at Gutenberg, which, however, can do
no great harm as General Butler will
move up to Delagoa Bay railwa y and
stop Kruger's supplies So soon as the
British have all the railways, flying
columns will quickly make an end to
all great opposition and the Lydenburg
region can be dealt with at leisure
On one thing the British government
is determined, l. e., President Kruger
cannot stay in the Transvaal- In the
event of his capture he must be trans
ported, not necessarily in durance;
but he must be got out of the territory
which Lord Salisbury expects will
shortly be part of the British empire
Every effort will be made to capture
President Kruger, but the government
officials are inclined to believe he will
ct into Portuguese territory where the
British will be unable to touch him.
