Washington Officials Not Dis
posed to Unduly Hurry
Negotiations,
Believing Consummation Of the
French Treaty Will Do
the Work.
IF They Do Not Come in France
Is Expected to Take Compel
tive Trade.

r. WASHINGTON, March 5.-While, tech.
nically speaking, negotiations looking
to the making Of reciprocity treaty
between the United States and Ger
many are still in progress, practically
nothing has been accomplished in that
direction since the departure of the
German ambassador, Herr Won Hol-
leben, for Germany early last summer.
There is no disposition whatever on the
part of the state department to en-
barrass the German government by any
insistence at this time upon an active
prosecution Of the negotiations. While
far from satisfactory, the existing con-
ditions Of the American export trade
with Germany, can, it is believed
by the officials, be tolerated for short
time. 1t is believed that when
the German government has secured
what it believes necessary, certain con-
cessions from the reichstag, it will be
ready to meet the United States. AT
any rate conviction of this kind has
inspired the United States government
to.avoid any urgent representations con-
nected with the reciprocity negotiations
at this stage. .''.-
Another Reason for Delay.
There is, perhaps, another reason for
the negative course taken by our gov
eminent. This is desire to learn just
what effect the ratification by the United
States senate of the pending French re-
ciprocity treaty would have upon the
German government. It is said by the
officials here that as the French treaty
gives preferential rates to many articles
which figure largely in the list Of
German exports to the United States
the effect of the practical application of
the French treaty would be to confer
upon France all that share of the Amer
lean market now occupied by Germany.
To save this important trade to her man
ufacturers, Germany must, it is argued,
secure similar reciprocity treaty, and
this can only be secured by an abate-
ment of the restrictions on the importa-
tons of American meats and other prod
ucts. This, by natural working of the
laws Of trade and commerce, it is con-
ceived by the officials that our govern
ment, may be able to entirely avoid q
recourse to the tremendous powers
lodged in the president, of prohibition
Of trade with nation that discriminates
against the United States.

LONDON, March 5.-2:27 p. m.-Presi.
dent Kruger is said to have left Pretoria
with the intention Of meeting President
Steyn. The place where they will meet
is not mentioned, but is believed to be
somewhere in the Orange Free State.
Those In South Africa who are CONVEX.
SAINT with the effect of the recent re-.
verses have had on the Beers, express
the opinion that the meeting Of the two
presidents is preliminary to a sugges-
ton Of negotiations for peace. But if
this is the case, it must be due to the
pressure brought to bear upon the pres
idents by the burghers and Afrikanders
in the British colonies, rather than In
the personal inclinations of the presi-
dents, as all the available information
depicts them as being as determined as
ever to persist in the war until the re-
sources of the republics are much more
enfeebled than they seem to be at pres
ent, although some significance is at
tached to the consultation in view
of the reported visit to England Of Chief
Justice de Villiers, Mr.. Hoffmeier and
DR.. Tewater, ostensibly on private bust
ness and for their health. But, the
closest observers do not anticipate any
sudden cessation of hostilities and GER
tainly, the reports from the theater of
war do not tend to encourage the advo-
cate of immediate peace. The Beers
are apparently rallying with their &C
customed ability to repair a temporary
reverse, and Great Britain has yet to
test their force as defensive power un-
der the new conditions of warfare.
Outside the meeting of the presidents
there is no news indicative Of any
Grange in the situation. Telegraphing

BOER COUP INTIMATED.

Said tho British Lines Of Communication
r. Are in Danger.
NEW YORK, March 5.-The represen-
tative of the Beers in the United States,
Mr.. George Van Siclen, has received
from European correspondent dis
patch declaring that the burghers are
rapidly, preparing to cut off both Rob-
erts and Butler from their base Of sup
plies. The dispatch goes on to say that
this may starve out both armies.
Mr.. Van Siclen refuses to disclose the
name Of the sender Of the message, and
declares that he has received other very
important news from the same source
which he is not at liberty to disclose.
The End Il Not Yet
Mr.. Van Siclen also says that though
an unfortunate occurrence, Cronje's sur
render is not by any means a disaster.
He says the Beers have three stronh
lines Of defense, and that the British
must lose 81, 900 more men before the
first line is taken. s.#
If all three line of intrenchments are
stormed, Mr.. Siclen declares the Beers
still have the mountains to resort to.

rKINLEY ON IMPERIALISM.

New YORK, March 6.--At the banquet
Of the Ohio society at the Waldorf As.
toria President Mckinley, in response
to toast in his honor, said:
There can be no Imperialism. Those
who fear are against it. Those who
have faith in the republic are against it.
So that there is universal adherence for
it and unanimous opposition to it. Our
only difference is that those who do not
agree with us have no confidence in the
virtue or capacity or high purpose or
good faith Of this free people as civil
lining agency, while we believe that the
century Of free government which the
American people have enjoyed has not
rendered them faithless and irreso-
lutte, but has fitted them for the great
task of lifting up and assisting to better
conditions those distant people who
have, through the issue Of battle, be.

'The harder the task the greater will
be the result, the benefit and the honor.
To doubt our power to accomplish it is
to lose faith in the soundness and
strength of our popular institutions.
The iberators will never become the
oppressors. A self governed people will
never permit despotism in any govern
ment which they foster and defend.
Gentlemen, we have the new care
and cannot shift it. And, breaking up
the camp of ease and isolation, let US

Princess Of Wales opened the new ten

lied the slums of London as
a disgrace to civilization. But he
added, the public conscience had

would solve the problem Of housing the
workers, than which there was no ques-

FINAL READING thursday
THE PASSAGE OF ACT is NOW IN
SIGHT.
Money for Postoffce and Customs Blu
reau Will Become Available at Once
No Poi Market.

The most important business trans
acted by the Council of State yester-
day afternoon was the shelving of the
item of $4,000 recommended by Minis
ter Young for the establishment of a
public poi mandatory and market. 1t
was planned to have the building on
sanitary lines near the fish market,
and to let the stalls to the manufacture
ers.
During the debate which followed the
executive officer of the Board of Health
and the inspectors under him were Sc
verely criticized for allowing the shops
to get in their present condition. If
reports were true the shops had been
getting worse and worse, and no effort
had been made to improve them. Mr..
Isenberg thought If the officers of the
Board could not do their work better
they should get out. The motion to
strike out carried.
During the afternoon Act passed
second reading, and third reading was
set for Thursday. Finance Minister Da-
mon was asked if appropriations for the
postoffice and customs house would be-
come available upon the passage of the
act, to which he replied:
IT have conferred with the Auditor
General and he has said that he would
issue warrants for the expenditures Of
these departments when the clerk of
the Council of State had given him a
certificate when this bill had passed the
Council, and the items of the two de-
partments annotated; and also, when
he had received from the Executive
Council their notification that the pay
ment of these items was in conformity
with the instructions received from
President Mckinley"
An item of $1,000 for a courthouse and
jail in South Kona was inserted.
