IoNpoN. Nov Il While II is certain that e1-
President Krdger had not landed from the
cruiser Gelderland al the t.mc the latest
dispatches ware sent from Mnrseies. there are

lively that the cruiser has arrived N
Marseilles. and that Dr. Ieyds boarded
her and conferred with Mr. Kruger He advised
the cS-Prcsdcnt not to make any declaration
of an anti-Rritish character lest he compro-

his project Of boarding the Gelderland tonight
owing TO the bad weather.
All the reports concur in stating that unusually
bad weather is prevailing The wind Is high.
and there Is a pouring rain. Tho passage Of
the Mediterra mean must have been most dis
agreeable. but notwithstandinG the dlsappoint-
ment Of the welcomers and the drenched deco
rations there does not seem to be the smallest
justification for the prediction Of certain cor
respondents that the demonstration will event-
ually flzzle out.
