WANT TO KNOW PEACE TERMS.
England Has Had Several Messages
From BIoemfontein.

London, March 1O.-Several papers an
nounce that the government on Tuesday
received five messages from President
Kruger and President Steyn in Dutch,
asking upon what terms a cessation Of
hostilitles could be brought about.
The messages surprised and delighted
the department concerned. While their
tenor was understood, it was found neces-
cry to summon persons thoroughly capa-
BILE of accurately Interpreting the mes
sages, all of which were filed at Bloem-
fontein.
The cabinet convened on Wednesday 10
consider the messages, and IL is believed
that an uncompromising reply was sent
which is known to have reached Bloem-
fontein by the same means as the Boer
cablegram reached the government.
Tho nature OF The reply was such as to
lead to a further but gradual retirement
of the Boer forces.

HAWAIIAN BILL TO COME UP.
Partisan Work in Behalf of Vir-
gtnia Republican.

Washington, March 10.--The House
agreed to-day to take mp the bill provid-
ing a government for Hawaii on April g.
the final vote to be taken on April g. at
4 p m.
Consideration of the wise-Young cleo
tion contest was resumed and occupied the
remainder of the session
Mr., Weeks of Michigan, criticised cleo
ton methods in various Southern states
and compared them with the methods in
the North This was vigorously resented
by Mr. Cooper of Texas, and Mr.. Terry
of Arkansas.
Mr.. Burke of Texas presented the case
in behalf of the contestee, Mr.. Young.
He said this case amounted to PROPOSE
ton to disfranchise a city of 10000 inhab-
itants, Norfolk, because of the illegality
of not exceeding 140 votes.
Mr.. Hull replied to statement by Mr.
Burke that Mr.. Hanna, chairman OF the
Republican National Committee, had held
that Mr.. Holland was the regular candi-
date of the Republicans in the Second
Congressional district of Virginia. Mr..
HUI said that Mr. Hanna had made no
such decision. The Congressional Com
mittee had charge of that matter and had
decided that Mr.. Wise was the regular
candidate The fact was, Mr. Hull said
that the Republican state organization IN
Virginia was anxious to keep the Republi-
can party large enough only to fill the fed
eral offices in the state. To this end he was
satisfied the organization had interfered
against regular candidates for Congress
notably In Mr.. Wise's district. and also m
that of Mr.. Walker. He concluded with
the statement that Mr.. Wise was as regu-
larly candidate of the Republican party
as any man in the House.
Mr. Linney OF North Carolina spoke in
support Of Mr.. Wise.
After analyzing the case thoroughly Mr.
Linney concluded with an appeal to the
House 10 support the claims of the con-
testant. AT 4:12 D. m. the House adjourned.

of the most enthusiastic workers in the

close this evening and returned to Wind

of the guards.
Throughout the day vast crowds gath
cred outside Buckingham Palace and
along the advertised route to the railroad
station and when the royal caIriage fin
ally started for Hyde Park. on its way
to Paddington, the enthusiasm broke out
into cheers, which was almost unbroken
until the train departed.
Previous to leaving the palace there was
a brief, but interesting ceremony on the
grounds, where 1900 khaki-clad guards

up for the final inspection of Her Majesty
before their departure for South Africa

for the Associated Press at midnight, as

EXCITEMENT AT FRANKFORT.
Military Called Out by Taylor to
Protect His Partisans.

Frankfort, KY, March 10-The situa-
ton has reached a point of excitement
to-day almost approaching that of the
stirring times Immediately following the
assassination of Goebel.
The reinstatement of the military pow
er in complete control of the state ex-
ecutive building and the refusal of the
military authorities to allow the local po-
lice and civil officers to enter the building
for the purpose of arresting Secretary of
State Caleb Powers and Capt. John w.
Davis, charged with being accessories to
the Goobel assassination and the proba-
bility of a conflict between the civil and
military authorities has made the situa-
ton look serious.
This morning City Marshal Richardson
applied at the executive building and de
mauded to be admitted for the purpose of
arresung Powers and Davis, but was
turned back and the warrants were then
Gurned over to Sheriff Suter.
The latter also presented himself at the
executive building and demanded admit
tance. He was referred by the officer in
charge to Col Morrow, and the latter be-
ing found, said:
Il am sorry. Mr.. Sheriff. but it is
against Gov. Taylor's orders to let any
one into the building to-day"

Sheriff Suter then held a consultation
with County Attorney Polsgrove, Com
mon wealth Attorney Franklin and other
officials Meantime the police force had
been doubled and a detail guarded each
OF the entrances to the State House

escaping. At the conference between the
officials il was decided that the sheriff

END OF THE WAR EXPECTED.

FORESHADOWs 1T.

English Government Does Not Com
slider That the Time Has Come for
Peace TnIk-CannOt Go Back to
the status Quo Ante-BeIIum-TeIc-
grams in Dutch Received From
BlOemfontein-Repl Not Likely
to Afford the Beers Any Comfort.
London, March H. 2:2O a. MIN the alb
sence of important news from the seat IF
war, speculation is rife regarding the
probability of an early peace.
President Kruger's appeal to Lord Sails
bury for a cessation of hosulities, an
nounced on Friday, is taken as foreshad-
owing that the end will soon be in sight.
The governments views are probably
enunciated in the following official state
ment, issued last night:
"It Is understood that the government
does not consider that the time has yet
come for any authoritative statement as
to ultimate terms of peace and no mem
Der of the cabinet has authorized any
published statement on the subject.
1T is, of course, generally understood
among all political parties in this coun-
try that so far as the South African Re-
publics are concerned the status quo ane-
bellum cannot remain unaltered after the
close of hostiites.
Their part in the system involved a
large measure of political and military in
dependence which will of course be ma
terially modified as a result of the war
but the growing prospects of restored
peace must be further advanced before Her
Majesty's government can either finally
formulate proposed terms of settlement lr
make any announcement of their plans

FAMuLY's HARD EXPERIENCE.
Four Children May Die ns the RE-
suit of Exposure

Peru Ind, March 1O.-The four children
of Arthur Williams, whose family lived
for four days in submerged hut on an
island in the Wabash river. will probably
die as a result of their terrible expert
ence.
The sudden rise in the Wabash river
some days ago during the night caused
the ice to open and the only boat of the
family was crushed. The family could
not cross to the shore and for four days
no one heard their calls for help. During
the time the river gradually rose, sub
merging the house. and for three days the
family was compelled to stand on chairs
and tables, and finally on the fourth day
and night clung to the narrow roof Of the
shed TO escape drowning. David Grippe
and Sherman Hemonger, neghboriag
farmers, finally heard the cries, and after
numerous attempts, succeeded In rescuing
them.
