Boer observation parties are lowering
near Bloemfontein, but Lord Roberts has
lS5 miles to cover before reaching the
great position which the Beers are pre-
pairing at Kroonstad. Moving ten miles
a day is probably the best he can do with
field transport. Therefore he can hardly
engage the Beers in force for two weeks.

Lord Roberts has sent 10000 troops to

TO CHECK PROTESTS.

Mr.. Davis contended that the amend
ment he had proposed would go far to ap-
pease the storm OF protest and indigna-
tion which had arisen and would satisfy
the people of this country and the Puerto
Ricans themselves.
IF 1 interpret the signs II the times In
this country right he So I, there is in
tense opposition to this, bill among our
people. This will be aifayed by the adop-
tion Of the proposition in my amendment
And as to the Puerto Rtea ns, they would
be quite satisfied by the leyying and col
lecting of internal revenue taxes on rum
and tobacco.
The whole project of levying a tariff on
Puerto Rican products, he said, was so
generative of Observation-Disclosures which
sprung from every possible source All
sorts of arguments had been urged in sup
port of the tariff. First it was charity

SERIOUS Loss TO FEDERAIs

PARIS, March 29.-The Paris press is
unanimous in eulogiZing Gen. Joubert,
whose death is considered serious loss
to the federals. All the papers agree in
thinking that a change in the chief COM
mand is bound to have grave conse-
quences for the Boer operations. Many
think, however, that President Kruger is
fully equal to the task, and, considering
his military reputation, the resistance OF
the Beers is likely to become more stub
born than ever.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-03-29

cradle regard for the usages of civiliza-
ton. When the Beers raided British ter
ritory, Bechunaland, in 1884, Joubert was
probably the only prominent Boer who
refused to support that movement, and
his opposition resulted in the withdrawal
Of the Beers from the territory seized,
as he threatened TO resign unless he had
his way, saying: Il positively refuse to
hold office under a government that de-
iberately breaks it's covenants, and we
have made covenants with England"
In November last it was reported that
Gen. Joubert had been killed in action,
and later reports said he was dangerously
wounded and had to use a cart IN order
TO follow the operations in the field.
The circumstances of the death of Gen.
Joubert are not explained in the dispatch
from LourenZo MARQUEE.
