WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, January 80, 1900

Washington, January 30, 1900.
The absurd contention of the present
Anglomanac administration that the
Transvaal is not a sovereign state, and
is therefore not entitled to send nor
receive ministers, has been definitely
answered by Montague White, the
South African diplomat now in this
city. He said recently: DR. Leyds,
the TranSvaal agent, has been officially
received and recognized as minister
ipotentiary by Russia, Holland,
France, Germany, Belgium and Portu-
gal. lie is successor to Jonkheer
BlocEland, who was received at these
courts before him, and who for many
years represented the South African
republic in Europe. To deny this is to
disclose either unbounded ignorance or
wiltul hostility to my government" g"
Dispatches from Paris, printed this
morning, show that DR.. Leyds has been
received by the French minister of
foreign affairs and has dined with Presi-
dent Loubet. In view of these facts, of
which the state department may pos
sibly have been ignorant, it has become
probable that representative of the
TranSvaal would now be received if one
should come to this country. The Re
publican leaders have become alarmed
at the rising storm of Indignation to-
wards the administration for its con-
spicuous violation of neutrality.
