THE II X INDEMNITY.
Nothing Heard as TO the Porte's Reply
to the Last Demand

Washington. April 3o.-It Is said
at the state department that Mr.. Girls
ON. the United States charge at Con-
stantinople. has not yet acquainted the
department with the nature Of the re-
ply made by the porte 10 his last rep
resentation touching the American IN
demnity claims. 50 Ii Is presumed that
he himself has not yet received the
answer.
There Is some reason to believe tina
a powerful effort is being put forth by
the Turkish government To comprD-
mise the missionary claims unoftcially.
Various methods To achieve his
have been suggested. but the one which
is looked upon as most feasible Is tha
connected with the building Of n var
ship for Turkey in the United States.
II the claimants chose TO receive the
amount OF their claims from an AmeIi-
can shipbuilder instead Of through the
state department, thereby removing in
the department the basis for fur lher
prosecution OF its demands upon he
porte. some interesting points of inter-
national law might be raised. Ii would
seem that once committed to the state
department, an international claim can
not be withdrawn without the con-
sent OF the department. though whether
there would be a refusal in this case
cannot be stated.

Berlin, April 3O.-Count Won Posa-

THE Prussian government has

THE BOER COMMISSIONERS.
Not to be Recognized as Representa-
tives of Transvaal.

Washington, April 30.-It can be
stated that the persons composing the
Boer delegation who are about to sail
from Europe for the United States this
week will be received as individuals,
just as was Mr.. Montague White, but
with the distinct understanding that
they are not recognized officially as a
Boer delegation. In other words, Sec
rotary Hay will treat them exactly as
he woul treat any distinguished visi-
tor from abroad without regard to Ia
tionality, but will not admit their
competence to enter into any negotia-
tons with the state department.
1t is believed that the prospective
visitors thoroughly understand the
condition under which they will be re-
ceived and that instead of directing
their efforts upon the government in
Washington, they will rather seek tC
influence it through the American peo-
pie by means of an active Boer propa-
ganda.
