the South African financier. met Nr
Rhodes at Funchal. Island of Madeira, and
advised him to observe reticence on South
African affairs. especially as to his alleged
differences with Colonel Kekewich. at KIM

contras, to his former ovations. The pub

Other pertinent questions are being asked
as . result of these successive "unfortu-
