Enjoying the French EbuIlition Over
the Fugitive BOer President.

LONDON. Nov. 24-Mr. Kruger's
triumphant passage from Marseilles TO
Paris is regarded with curious and unex-
pected indifference in Great Britain
Every detail of the remarkable ovation
has been read with interest, but the under
lying feeling here is more one OF amuse-
ment than irritation. The nation that
boiled over with fury when Queen Vic
toria was caricatured by Partisan Journal
lists takes the French homage TO :ts arch
enemy an exhibition OF Inevitable Gallo
enthusiasm not likely TO affect interna-
tional issues or create any more serious
friction than already exists among the
poDulace of the two countries.
The recognition OF Mr.. Kruger as being
still President of the Transvaal by both
the French government and the Queen OF
Holland calls forth from the Westminster
Gazette the remark that this apparent I'M
frfendllness Is due TO Great Britain's own
fault in not communicating TO the powers
the annexation of the South African re-
Dublics. So long as this is not done Mr.

the collective note adopted by the foreign
ministers at Peking, having been sub

that there was a paragraph therein sug-
costing that the home governments ex-
press their additional wishes and it was
admitted that the United States might
have done so. But the officials referred

BRITAIN MAY CONSENT.


LONDON. Nov A.-Secretary Hays note
appealing to the powers to devise meas
ures to bring about an amicable and sat
has been received at the Foreign Office
through Lord Pauncefote the British am
bassador at Washington, but it has not
yet been answered. The note points out
that the difficulties of getting China to
execute the punishments desired by the
powers are so great as to make, in the
opinion of the United States, this way of
solving the crisis almost impracticable- The
note does not propose any definite substi-
tute, but suggests an exchange of views.
whereby the powers can arrive at better
basis of treating China The United States
embassy has not received a copy of the
note and is ignorant Of it's contents. Judg
ing from the Foreign Office opinion, voiced
In these dispatches to-day, Great Britain
is likely to assent gladly to Secretary Hays
proposition.
The bitterness with which the London
Times attacks every move made by Wash
ington seems to increase daily and is all
the more surprising on account of the at
titude of the Foreign Office. The prin-
ciples laid down in Secretary Hays latest
note were given to a representative of the
Associated Press by a British official be-
fore the reception of Mr.. Hays note as
voicing the opinion of the British Cabinet.
Yet the Times comes out to-day with
vigorous protest against the very idea of
Mr.. Hays principles being considered.
Referring TO the Cincinnati speech of
WI Ting Fang, the Chinese minister TO
the United States, after saying that his
promising the United States better COM
mercial chances when peace is restored
an injury, the paper adds: But WI Ting
Fang seems to have known his audience.
ALI the comment an influential American
paper makes is that WI Ting Fang knows
that Americans, like all others, give their
own interests first place"
The Times then compares this attitude
with that of Ii Hung Chang on his trip
around the world during which, it it as
serted, he acted on the conviction that
pecuniary self-interest was the sole guild
ing principle Of the peoples and govern
mentS (which proved unsatisfactory re-
cipients of the multitudinous promises
which he failed to redeem" Secretary
Hay is taken severely to task for daring
to differ from the demands as now formu-
lated.
From another source comes another
striking, impartial confirmation of the
American views. III. j. Whighem, the
newspaper correspondent and golf player,
well-known in America, who is now repre-
senting the London Morning Post in China.
cables from Shanghai as follows 1.-The
Picking farce continues. When L left all
the legations were trusting Ii Hung
Chang. 1t was believed the court would
return TO Picking and that any attempt on
the part of the dowager Empress to ar
rest Prince Tuan would be absurd. Prince
Chwang, who was arrested, is simply
Prince Tuan's scapegoat. 1t is obvious,
therefore, that the court will not return
TO Picking. 1t can only be attacked during
the winter through the Yang-Tse valley"

mmittee Report Declaring Senator
Scott Duly Elected.

Senator McComas. from the Senate COM
mlttee on privileges and elections, today
presented the report of that committee on
the matter Of protest against the continu-
ance of n. B. Scott of West Virginia in
his seat as a senator from that state The
report is concurred in by all the members of
the committee except Senator Pettus and it
recommends the adoption of the following
resolution:
Resolved. That Nathan B. Scott has been
duly elected senator from the state of
West Virginia forS the term of six years
commencing on the 4th of March, 1899, and
that he Is entitled to seat in the Senate
SUCH
The committee discusses all the objections
OF the protestants, but the greater part Of
the report is deyeted to:the charges that
two holdover senators Messrs Getzeln1a n.-
ner and Pearson, ,Noted for Mr.. Scott while
they held commissions m the volunteer
army, and that the agiesment whereby
while a joint assembly for[the election Of
a senator was held was void as against
public policy"
The first of these points is dismissed upon
the ground that the !stata senate passed
favoraby upon the qualifications as mem
bers of the two soldier senator's. On this
pa4t 1sns8 eeTMrttss. saysZi The senate of
West Virginia Is the only tribunal which

On the point raised as to the Joint assem-
bly, the committee say: at may be that
wrong and injustice to members and con-
|, testants was done and intended to be done
upon one side or the other on both sides.
There is no evidence Of force or fraud in
these transactions in the documents or facts

NEW GOVERNOR OF GUAM.
Capt. Leary to BE Relieved When His
Regular Tour Expires.

Captain Richard d. Leary. governor gen
eral of Guam. will be relieved of that duty
OF, the expiration of his regular tour of sea
duty within the next few months. His
successor, who will be an officer with the
rank of captain. has not yet been selected.
Although Captain Leary has discharged all
the important duties of his office to the
entire satisfaction of the administration,
some of his acts. In minor instances have
not been fully approved.
AS practically all of the inhabitants of
Guam are members Of the Roman Catholic
Church there was naturally some objection
on their part to a compliance with an order
issued by Captain Leary forbdding the
ringing Of church bells night and morning.
Captain Leary's explanation of this order
was that the suppression of bell ringing
was necessary to the peace and quiet of a
number of patients in nearby hospitals suf
fering from typhoid fever AS most of
these patients have since recovered it is be-
Iieved that the governor will revoke his
order. and the bells will ring as usual.
The action of Governor Leary in abolish
ms slavery and peonage in the Island of
Guam has been approved by the authors

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, March 20.-Yesterdays late
developments in Third Avenue made the
Traction group the center of attraction
during the opening hour this morning. The
punishment melted out to the short interest
in Third Avenue last night, an advance of
is points being recorded in many min
utes. had prepared the street for further
sensational developments today. Opening
prices fully confirmed the view that sellers
were meeting with difficulties in making
deliveries.
On an opening transaction of 5000 shares
the prices varied from 90 to 81, and later
crossed par. making the total advance from
yesterdays low level thirty-four points. The
movement was accompanied by rumors of
a change in control, the Metropolitan being
the purchaser. In addition, the receivers
certificates were said to be unnecessary
and many of the threatened legal difficult
ties have been put aside by the mere adj
vent of the new interests.
An advance of 5 per cent In Metropolitan
and sharp temporary recovery in Brook
lyn We're taken as an indication Of a nerv-
Gus snort interest In those issues. The local
situation being in process OF Improvement
the demand soon extended to the RAILWAYS
with good results. London again bought
moderately. buying Atchson Preferred in
considerable volume, and showed marked
preference for the n1iddle-priced shares
A short interest In Baltimore and Ohio
common made substantial advance in the
price of those shares. The relatively high
price OF this stock had encouraged sell
ing movement Of considerable proportions
during the last few weeks. and the demand
yesterday and today caused an urgent buy
ing movement against these sales. The
buying, however, has been inspired by GER
tain inside plans which give the stock a
value. 1t Is said. beyond its immediate book
worth.
Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Northern
Pacific and similar shares were in excellent
demand. because Of the improving dividend
prospects. The preferred shares were
strong, but the demand is clearly setting
toward the common shares, because of divi-
dend returns and the low carrying charges
How far the present movement NAV be
based on the covering of outstanding con-
tracts and to what extent the banking in
terests are committed are unknown factors
One certain achievement, however. may be
noted in connection with the sudden change
IN tone from passive to positive belief in
higher prices.
The course of the money market alarms
no one and higher rates are expected to
rule for the balance of the month The
success of the new financial legislation is
regarded as practically certain and a rem
edy for dear money is consequently at
hand. Government bonds are inclined to
lag, but the profits taken at recent high
prices are coming into the railroad bond
