PRESIDENTS TO MEET.
Kruger and steyn to Hold . Conferences

-
Kruger and steyn to Hold Conference
in the Free State.
LONDON March 5.-President Kruger
is said to have left Pretoria with the
intention of meeting President Steyn.
The place where they are to meet is
not mentioned, but it is be-
lieved to be somewhere in the Orange
Free State. Those in South Africa
who are conversant with the effect Of
the recent reverses on the Beers ex-
press the opinion that the meeting Of
the two presidents is preliminary to a
suggestion for negotiations for peace.
But in this case it must be due to pres
sure brought to bear upon the presi-
dents by the burghers and Afrikan-
ders in the British colonies rather than
in the personal inclinations of the pres
idents, as all available information
depicts them as being as determined as
ever to persist in the war until their
resources are utterly exhausted. But
the closest observations do not antici-
pate any sudden cessation of hostile
ties, and, certainly reports from the
theatre of war do not tend to encour-
age the advocate Of immediate peace.
The Beers apparently are rallying
with their accustomed ability to re-
pair temporary reverse, and Great
Britain has yet to test their force as
defensive power under new conditions
of war.

Little Prospect Of Restoring Order in

A MANILA, March 5.-Reports reach the
Associated Press from various sources,
including army officers apd the heads
sor commercial houses with agents
throughout the islands, Of continued
activity among the insurgents, who are
endeavoring to keep alive the armed
opposition to the United States and
are planning to continue the insurrec-
ton with guerrilla warfare on larger
scale when the rainy season begins.
A person holding position second
only to that of the governor general
says he is convinced that the insurgent
organization has been remarkably re-
habilitated during the past month,
particularly in the northern provinces.
He says the insurgents have a secret
organization even in the strongest
garrisoned towns, affording perfect
means of communication, and that the
machinery is managed from Manila,
sorae of the leaders being Filipinos
pretending to be supporters of the
American administration. Two CORE
spondents of leading American week
lies who have travelled for month IN

insurgents chiefs, going alone fifty
miles from garrisons and being every

pie make no secret Of their sympathy

several mailed reports of the outbreak

On Jan. "a two more cases were report

Chicago, March 6.-Princess Salm
Salm Of Carlsruhe, Germany, famous
for her services as nurse in the civil
war, in the war against the Maximil-
ian government in Mexico and in the
Franco-Prussian war, arrived in Chi
cago Sunday with the purpose of or
ganizing a hospital corps for the Boer
army The princess expects to pro-
cure the funds for the hospital corps
by appeals to the people Of Chicago
alone. 1t is said that individuals have
offered to contribute the money neces-
sary for the enterprise, but that their
offers have been refused, because the
princess preferred to have the corps
supported by the people of Chicago as
a whole, and to this end she expects to
call public meeting for the latter part
Of the week, when she will make a
personal appeal for funds and volun-
teers for the work. To help along the
movement an admission fee of 81 will

New York, March 6.-In honor of the
l22d anniversary Of the birth of Robert
Emmett the United Clan-na-Gael held
q pro-Boer and anti-British meeting at
the Academy of Music Sunday night.
The speakers, Recorder John w. Golf,
who presided, and W. Bourke Cochran,
warmly espoused the cause of the
Beers and denounced the British, to.
the vast delight of an audience that
packed the academy from orchestra to
roof Not content with attacking Eng
land, Mr.. Cochran made bitter on
slaught upon the administration, de-
claring that the president and his adj
visers had surrendered the interests of
this country to Great Britain, and that
II they had done their duty in the mat
ter Of the Alaskan boundary dispute
England would have had her hands SO
full ON this continent that she would
not have been able to wage any war in
South Africa. The only features of the
program that did not concern them
selves chiefly with the affairs of the
Transvaal were the songs. Mr.. Cock
ran was cheered when he came for
ward. After a brief introduction, in
which he referred to the character of
Robert Emmett, he said:
Recent events in distant part of
the world seem to show that Provi-
dence is moving in mysterious way

Chicago, claiming damages of SIZE, 900

packing company's failure to fulfill the
terms of contract An agent of the
Armour Packing company made con-
tract in May, 1899, to furnish Ralya
with fresh meat at a. fixed price until
Sept. 80, 1899. The price of pork loins
went up to almost double the contract
price about Aug. 1, and Ralya then
began taking orders for large amount
which he says Armour refused to de-
liver to him.
