THAT the British Government
began this war in the interests OF
the South African millionaires is
evident to all. The London CA>on-
iele recently stated that these
wealthy pirates have proposed to
recoup the British Government
very largely out of the resources
of the two Republics-Republics
with which they had no right to
interfere; on whose lands they are
merely by the sufferance of the
people thereof; and where they
are acting, not the part of civilized
and noble Britons but rather that
of land highwaymen and sea pi-
rates.
The London Daily Mail deliber-
ately declares:
There is every reason why we
should demand from the Free
States and the Transvaal all that
the war has cost, including pen
sions to wounded and disabled
soldiers.
On Infamy's head. infamy &C
cumulates. After robbing these
Rep 'blics of their rights and their
liberties, and numbering their
people in the name of an alleged
humanity, the British Government
proposes that its victims shall pay
all the cost of the British side of
war, including life pensions to
such of their murderers as have
had the misfortune to become
wounded or disabled.
In all the annals of national
crimes there is not one to COM
pare with that of Great Britain
in South Africa.-Sac. Bee.

turned, and as the servant opened the
door TO admit him, there came the
sound Of two pistol shots Two more
shots were fired a moment later The
young man and several others who had
heard the shots ran into Mrs. Hayes
apartments.
On the bed lay Mrs. Hayes. She had
thrown of the dress she had worn at
dinner. She lay in a natural position.
There were two ragged wounds in her
right temple, from which the blood
flowed. The bullets had entered her
brain, and she must have died instant
". Beside the bed lay DR.. Caldwell.
He. too, was dead. There were two
bullet wounds in his head. His right
hand still clutched a revolver, with the
finger on the trigger, showing how he
had died.
DR.. Hayes was found in a drug store
near at hand and hurried to the rooms
He was quite distracted. talked wildly,
and It was feared for a time that he
would have to be restrained. He could
not offer the faintest suggestion Of a
cause for the wild act Of Caldwell.
The police could learn but little. DR..
Hayes, from being excited and talk
ative, cooled down and refused TO say
anything The cOlOred maid was 50
frightened that not a word could be
had from her. Nothing was found
that gave any idea as to the cause OF
the shooting, so far as is known, or 50
far as anyone would say.

SECRETARY LACKS POWER.
Attorney General Makes Decision
Against War Department.

Washington. Feb. A.-In an opinion
rendered to the war department, the
attorney general has decided that the
secretary of war is without power to
alter or amend the record Of a court
martial The case in point was that
Of Lieutenant Lewis Z. Brown, Eighth
United States volunteer infantry, who
was courtmartialled at Santiago, Nov.
II, 1898, and found guilty Of conduct
unbecoming an officer and a gentleman
and dismissed from the service.
After the court had been dissolved
and the Sentence had been executed.
the lieutenant submitted affidavits TO
show that the record Cf the courtmar-
tial did not contain the testimony Of
one witness. This was declared to be
a fatal error, inasmuch as the review
ing authority did not have before II all
of the testimony, as required by the
regulations.
Ii was sought to have the record Of
the courtmartial corrected by the in
clusion of this missing evidence, in or
der that the department might review

general holds cannot be done
