UNITED STATES MUST

ing at State Department.

others could render them would be In
keeping carefully i'm the background.
The prominence OF the Populists and
nti-Administration men has not ad-
vanced the cause of the envoys. The
president could not receive them OFF,
cially in any event. But now that their
visit has developed into a political af-
fair. through no fault Of their own, 1t
makes II all the more difficult for the
authorities i'm Washington to show
them any marked attention. Many who
would otherwise have been glad 10
show their sympathy have held back,
owing TO the character OF those who
have undertaken TO turn the visit of
the envoys TO personal OF political ad-
vantage.
ALIENS MALADROIT ACT.
A good illustration of the manner in
which the Beers are being injured by
their professional friends was given In
the Senate yesterday when Allen of Ne
braska, for purposes of his own. fore
ed TO a vote the resolution allowing the
delegates the privileges of the floor or
the Senate during their stay in wash
ington. Allen knew when he offered the
resolution that II was contrary TO the
custom OF the Senate and that il
would surely be beaten, not because
the majority OF the Senate are without
sympathy for the Beers. but chiefly be-
cause the Senate does not take kindly
to the idea of throwing the floor open
TO visiting delegations. To give the del
egation the privilege of the floor after
the demonstrations which have been
made in New York and Washington,
would have been open to misconstruc-
tion and would have been accepted as
= greater mark of recognition than 1t
deserved.
Allen knew all this, and yet for the
sake OF pursuing what he conceived TO
be a party advantage he forced the
Senate to vote. with the result that
the resolution was overwhelmingly de-
feated. Among the votes in opposition
were those of Hoar, Davis. Nelson and
others, who for personal reasons, would
much rather have cast vote marked
by friendship for the delegation. All
that Allen has accomplished Is TO put
the Senate on record against the Bo-
ers entirely, needless. and in such n
way. as TO convey the impression out
side that the sentiment in Washington
Is far less friendly than II is. Allen
may think that he has gained politi-
cal point. The Beers certainly have
nothing to thank him for in his per-
formance.

Mr.. MoTgan's Yacht That Figured
In M0Iineux Case Has Passed
To a New Owner.

New York, May 22.-Interest among
yachtsmen is aroused over the sale an
nounced yesterday OF A. j. Morgan's
schooner-yacht Viator to yachtsman
whose name is for the present with
held. When Viator came into notoriety
through frequent mention in the Moli-
neux trial Mr.. Morgan decided to rid
himself of his craft with a history.
The vtators connection with the Moli-
neux case had been very distant While
guest aboard the Viator on a cruise
along the Maine coast Miss Blanche
Chesebrough first met Roland b. Moli-
neux to whom she was afterwards
married. Slight as this relation TO the
celebrated case was IL nevertheless
seemed to cause all prospective pur-
chasers of yachts TO fight shy OF the
Viator. The Viator is keel boat meas
uring 75 feet over all. 62 feet on the
water-line. 10 feet beam and ten feet
draught. She was designed by Bur-
CESS and built at Marblehead, Mass.
by william Eddy In 1888.

Washington, May 22.--The Boer del
egates called at the state department
yesterday afternoon, and had a talk
with Secretary Hay. The meeting was
not official. and the delegates appeared
simply as citizens of the Transvaal.
receiving no further recognition than
any others under like circumstances.
They laid before the secretary at
much length and with great energy and
eloquence the merits of the controversy
In South Africa. and the desire Of the
Boer republics that the United States
should intervene in the interest of
peace and use its influence to that end
with the British government.
PRESIDENTS POSITION.
Secretary Hay. in his reply to the
Beers, closed by saying.
"The president sympathizes heartily
in the sincere desire OF all the people
OF the United States that Ule war now
affecting South Africa may, for the sake
OF both praties engaged. come to
speedy close, but having done
his full duty in preserving a strictly
neutral position between them and in
seizing the first opportunity that pre-
sented itself for rendering his good off,
ces in the interests OF peace. he feels
that, in the present circumstances. no
course is open to him except to persist
in the policy Of impartial neutrality.
To deviate from this would be contrary
II all our traditions and all our nation
al interests. and would lead TO conse-
quences which neither the president no.
the people of the United States could
regard with favor"
WHEREIN BOERs SUFFER.
The delegation are unfortunate in
having their visit to the United states
and to Washington made the occasion
for political demonstrations. And now
that they have had an opportunity te'
consult with some OF their real friends
they are very much disturbed by the
manner In which their presence here
has been made II serve a party pur-
pose. They realize now what they
could not realize when they first land
ed. that the politicians who have taxi
en- them in hand and made themselves
conspicuous I'm all their arrangements
for their reception are not actuafed by
any real sympathy for the struggling
Transvaal Republic and that the best
