NEW YORK. May 2l.-A special to

Assistant Secretary of War Meiklejohn
has made an official statement in which
he says that the total cost of the six
miles of railroad built by the govern
ment to connect the piers in Havana
harbor with the railroads Of Havana
was sS42,6l1.S4 This is $1SO,OOO more
than the cost as fixed by Colonel Helix
er, the president of the board which
built the road.
Mr.. Meiklejohn says that the road
was built as a military necessity in
order that the troops could be trans
ferred to the interior of the island with
out being conducted through the city
OF Havana. The work was done as ex-
peditiously as possible and the govern
ment consequently had to pay for the
haste.
Yet MIR. Meiklejohn states that the
cost Of construction and equipment
was Ss64.617.47 The warehouse cost
$41.S7OSO; grading ballasting and other
incidental expenses amounted to $780,
124O7. and the total cost was SS42,611.S4.
He states he. figured the cost of the
road was only $4,000 per mile.

Tells BOer Delegates Uncle Sam
viii Not Interfere.
BOERS REFUSE TO TALK
Secretary Hay Receives Them and Listens 10
All Their Arguments, Bat Says Ne Can
Do Nothing Denlsd the Floor
Ofihe Senate.

WASHINGTON. May 21-The state
department has met the issue raised BY
the coming to Washington Of the
Boer delegation. BY declining to inter-
fere In behalf OF the South African
republic in the present struggle.
In view Of this announced decision
all questions as to the character Of the
recognition TO be extended to the dele
gates and the sufiiciency Of their Gre
dentials, dropped at once into the
background.
II was, after all. OF little moment
whether or not the Beers were received
as diplomatic agents or ministers, so
long as they were powerless to pro-
mote the prime object Of their mis-
sion. namely, to cause the United
States government to intervene to
bring about peace.
The meeting between the delegates
and Secretary Hay was brought about
In the simplest manner. The Beers.
In departing, stated to a number Of
newspaper men that they had and
would have nothing to say as to what
happened.
The secretary OF state gave out,
through his secretary. the following
statement:
'Messrs. A. Fischer. c. Vessels and
DR. A. d. Wolmarens, delegates in
this country OF the South African re-
publies, called today by appointment
at the state department. They were
cordially received and remained with
the secretary Of state for more than
an hour. They laid before the secre-
tary, 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
interests of peace and use its efforts to
that END with the British govern
ment."
The secretary Of state made the fol-
lowing reply: THE president sympa-
thizes heartily in the sincere desire Of
all the people Of the United States that
the war which is now affecting South
Africa may, for the sake of both par
ties engaged. come to a speedy close;
but he feels that. in the present cir
cumstances, no course is open to him
except to persist in the policy of i'm
partial neutrality"

The military situation implies the ne
cesslty for peace negotiations on the
Dutch side. The Beers have been
driven out Of Natal The Free state

Butler, Huntington and Darlington.
The situation IL 80 utterly hopeless
that II may safely be assumed that
Presidents Kruger and steyn, IN their
consultations al Pretoria discussed the
oxpedlency Of making propositions for
peace.
As President steyn started at once
for Hellbron. Il ls not improbable
that DE Wet has offered 10 surrender
on his own terms, and 1t is reasonable
TO assume that President Kruger has
sent dispatches 20 Washington which
Will arm the delegates with full power
70 solicit the good offices OF the United
States government In bringing out a
general armistice.
There are rumors In the air that the
cabinet discussed on Friday offers Of
peace from Pretoria, and that the prime
minister's visit that night 10 Windsor
was made for the purpose Of com-
municating the proposals 70 the
queen but | am unable TO find confirm
alton Of these reports.
The opinion OF the well informed last
night was that Kruger and steyn were
making a determined effort to draw
the American government into an am
buscade OF some kind. and under cover
OF friendly service similar to that Of
fcrcd by France at the close OF the
war with Spain. TO obtain a vantage
ground for negotiating terms Of
peace. The opinion IN England Is very
strong on this subject. Peace nego-
tIations ending in a fresh convention
are not desired. An annexation proc
lamation by Lord Roberts Is what par
liament expects and the empire de-
mands
What has been going on in South
Africa has horne a close resemblance

agreed, must end like the American

umph, but without an armlstice or

tion or any compromise.

The standing committees have their
reports ready and are only seeking op-
portunities to present them. These re-
ports bring up the woman question.

CONFESS problem, and other inn
portant subjects. It is generally ad-

ports, as there will be numerous rec
concentrations that cannot be acted
upon at all.
The committees have had their most
important debates and their sessions
