PEACE SEEMS POSSIBLE.
EARLY Cessation of Hostilities 10 Not
improbable.

Early Cessation of Hostilities Is Not
Improbable.
LONDON, March l2.-In the absence
Of important news from the seat Of
war, speculation is rife regarding the
probability of an early peace. Presi-
dent Kruger's appeal to Lord Salisbury
for cessation of hostilitles, announced
On Friday, is taken as foreshadowing
that the end will soon be in sight.
The governments views are probably
snunciated in the following semi
official statement, just issued:
ut is understood that tho govern
ment does not consider that the time
has yet como for any authoritative
statement rs to ultimate terms of
peace, and no member of the cabinet
has authorized any published state
ment on the subject. 1t is, of course,
generally understood among all polit-
zeal parties in this country that, so far
rs the South African republics are con-
cerned, the status quo ante-bellum
cannot remain unaltered after tho
close of hostilities Their part of the
system which involved large meas
ure of political and military independ-
ence will, of course, be materially
modified as 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 or make any announcement
of their plans"

PROCEEDINGS FOR PEACE.
Reason to Believe the United States Ha,
Used Its Good Offices.

Reason to Believe the United states Has
Used Its Good Offices.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-There is
reason to believe the United States
government is using its good offices to
restore peace between Great Britain
and the South African republics.
This has not taken the shape ola prof
fer of mediation, but the United States
might very properly serve as an inter-
mediary to transmit an appeal fol-
peace and the terms upon which peace
can be restored. The United States
has successfully served in this capacity
in the past, notably in the termination
Of the Carbohydrates war, and it is
believed its good offices in this line are
now being extended. If this belief is
well founded, then Adelbert Hay,
United States consul to Pretoria, has
been the instrument for transmitting
to the British government, through
the double Intervention of the depart
ment of state and Ambassador ChQate,
the application from Presidents Kruger
and Steyn, and informed them as to
the terms upon which the war can be
ended. The facts in the case will be
fully developed in day or two.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 13.-At a
special meeting Of the board Of health
neld to consider the plague situation,
DR.. Kinyoun reported all the animals
at the quarantine station on Angel Is
land, which were inoculated with
virus from the body of the Chinese
who died few days ago under suspic-
ious circumstances, had died, with the
exception of the monkey, and it was
dying. An autopsy on the rats and
guinea pig showed they had de-
veloped symptoms of genuine Bubonic
plague. After discussing the matter
the board decided that the Chinaman
who died at 1901 Dupont street, had
been afflicted with the plague. A re-
quest was made for 100 volunteers
from among the members OF
the medical profession to make a
house to house examination and aid
the board in thoroughly fumigating
and disinfecting the entire quarter.

LONDON, March 1.-THE war office

"VENTEHs VEL, March 13.-Our

now about eighteen miles from Bloom

ing for the purpose of arresting Secre-
tary of State Caleb Powers and Captain
John w. Davis, charged with being
accessories to the Goebel assassination,
and the probability of conflict be-
tween the civil and military authori-
ties, made the situation look serious
during most of the day Saturday. At
an early hour the city marshal made
an effort to enter the capitol to mako
the arrest. He was prevented by tho
soldiers who had been summoned by
Gov. Taylor. The marshal called upon
Sheriff Suter, who likewise tried to
make the arrest and was repulsed. He
then stationed q complete line OF
guards around the building, to prevent
the escape of Powers and Davis, and
appealed to Governor Beckham. At 8
o'clock in the evening = squad Of SOL
diers rushed from tho building and
hurried to Chesapeake & Ohio train,
which they boarded for Lexington. A
few minutes later it was learned that
Powers and Davis, disguised as soldiers,
were in the squad. The authorities at
Lexington were wired and when the
train reached Lexington it was met by
the entire police force of the city.
Powers and Lieutenant Peake resisted.
Powers was dubbed and Peake arrest
ed, but later released on bond. Powers
and Davis were placed in Jail under
guard Of the local militia. On The per-
son of each was found a pardon signed
by Governor Taylor. The events of
the day served to show very forcibly
that the state guard as at present Or
ganized does not unanimously recog-
nize Taylor as governor. Lieutenant
Sparks refused to muster in the Lon.
don company in response to a telegram
from Governor Taylor, ordering him
to bring the company here, and the
Lexington companies also refused.
