WANTED IN BERLIN.

Boer President Abandons His Proposed
Visit to Berlin--F.ailure to Reach Under.
standing With Court Given as tho Cause.
Pleases London Papers.
Berlin, Dec. 3.-Mr Kruger has aban-
doned his proposed visit to Berlin, ow-
Ing to the receipt of an official intima-
ton that Emperor William regrets that
in consequence of previous arrange
ments he will be unable to receive
him. The Boer statesman will there
fore proceed direct for Holland
The Cologne Gazette, in an inspired
article, says: 'Nar Kruger's visit is
not agreeable to Germany, his aim be-
ing to obtain intervention in South
Africa. 1t would be grave political
mistake; it would be even great
crime to allow him to entertain even
a spark of hope that Germany will
render him any practical support"
This declaration is accompanied with
reproaches, Mr.. Kruger being charged
with "haying encouraged a useless
guerrilla warfare and having disre-
garded Germany's advice when he
might have followed it,
The emperors intimation was con-
veyed to Mr.. Kruger by the German
envoy at Luxembourg, who arrived at
Cologne yesterday
The official explanation offered
through the German press is that steps
had not been taken to ascertain
whether Mr.. Kruger's visit would be
agreeable The Boer delegates admit
that they have received serious
check and Mr.. Kruger is said to be
extremely disheartened. There is a
rumor that he had been requested to
avoid Belgian territory.

soon reach common ground in the
demands to be made against the Chi
nese government in satisfaction for
the Boxer outrages. The state depart
ment is in communication with the,
ministers and ambassadors of the Unit
ed States to the European courts and
advices which have come from them
from time to time lead the officers to
hope the powers will be brought to
the position maintained by the United
States in dealing with the Chinese,
viz: That there should not be demands
made on the imperial government
which it is not able to fulfill.
ENJOYS Unable to Do Any Business.

preliminary note to the Chinese pleni-
potentiaries. Mr.. Conger, the United

ing: Apparently it is the desire of all
to arrive at satisfactory conclusion.

final one, but will not be called until
