view, he will be unable to do for a fort
night.
Whether he win permit General Bull
Ter to make another attempt to relieve
Ladysmith is quite outside the knowl-
edge even of those closely connected
with the war ONCE. With the troops
due to arrive next month, he may think
himself strong enough to try two large
operations. Combining the forces un-
der Generals Methuen, French and
Gataere, and adding to them the ar
riying troops. Lord Roberts would have
10000 for the invasion OF the Free State,
With 4eeee or $1,000 guarding commune
cations and 10000 trying to rescue
Ladysmlth.
The public burns with impatienee
that something should be done.

senator under circumstances which the
protestants at first were inclined to
consider suspIcIously favorable to Mr..
clark. The prosecution also declined
during the day to put two witnesses on
the stand who had been summoned at
their instance, because the men had
talked unsatlsfdctorily since their ar
rival in washington. Both ex-senator

would be unfair to both sides tO-call the

DR.. LFYDS

Knows Nothing Of 1Iacrum or Davis.
Tells What the TranSyaal Wants
as the Price Of Peace s-Ths Terri-
tory Taken by Britain and 4 Sea-
port
BERLIN, Jan. 2S-An ofdcial agency
has communicated the following to the
press:
'In spite OF an oflicial statement that
DR.. Leyds (the diplomatic representa-
tive Of the TransyaaD, is here by ohi-
cial invitation, his visit Is entirely by
his own initiative, and though he has
received ordinary courtesy, his presence
is entirely without political signih-
cance."
To the correspondent Of the Ass0eia-
ted Press who interviewed him to-
day, DR.. Leyds made the following
statement:
At know nothing about the reported
missions OF either Mr.. Macrum or Mr.
webster Davis. Nor. to the best of my
Knowledge. IS either the bearer Of a
message of peace. There are no move
ments under way on our part to induce
president MCKINLEY to intervene be-
tween Great Britain and the Trans
vaal. AS / do not at present have di-
rect Communication with Pretoria, do
not know what Mr.. Montagu Whites
mission is, except to establish diplo-
matte relations with the United States.
"All this talk about peace is sadly
premature. Great Britain surely will
not succumb now. Neither WIN we.
While we are talking here It may be
that a decisive battle IS being fought
there. for presume Lord Roberts has
withdrawn the troops around Lady
smith and Is masslug them for for
mldable coup"
DR.. Leyds repeated his former declar-
alton that the Beers, when concluding
peace, would want back part, at least,
of the territories which England stole
from the Beers" He rather expects,
also, that a harbor south OF Mozambi-
que will go to the Transvaai. For our
legitimate extension" he added, 1--WE
need free access to the sea-" He as
serted emphatically that one condition
of peace would be the recognition Of
the absolute independence Of the
TransvaaI.
Berlin is certainly very much eX-
cited over him. He is overwhelmed with
invitations. His apartments at the
Palace hotel. where the TrauSvaal nag
is fying, are besieEea day and night by
crowds. including contractors and mln-
ing spectators, as well as fine ladies.
gentlemen of the court and army ON
GERS who wish to congratulate him up
on the Boer successes or to Offer their
services,
The Tageblatt to-day says that DR..
Leyds, the diplomatic representative Of
the Transvaal government. denies that
he met Mr.. Charles E. Macrum. the
former United States consul at Pretor-
ia. in Paris. He also reiterates his de-
nlal that Mr.. Macrum is the bearer OF

elusion, the Conference Adjourned
to Tomorrow.

,arst business of the Joint conference OF
miners and operators was the submIs-
sion of the report of the joint scale COM
mlttee. The propositions made were
practically the same as have been pub
iished heretofore. The miners demand.
ed an advance of twenty cents per ton
on a run OF mine basis. The operators
offered an advance of nine cents per
ton for mining, with the screens re-
malninE the same as at present A fur
ther condition In their proposition is
that the state OF Illinois, which is now
OH a run of mine basis, must come in
under a double standard arrangement
and return to using screens.
President John Mitchell, Of the Mine
Workers, moved the adoption Of the
miners scale. F. H Robbins, PENN
sylvania operator, moved to amend
the motion by adopting the scale of the
operators. The matter was then opened
for discussion.
President Mitchell was the first spea-
ker and said that during the past year
the price OF coal had been higher than
for several years, while the cost Of Nv
ing to the miners was also higher,
