WASHINGTON. May 21.-The State De-
partnent has met the issue raised by
the coming to Washington of the Boer
delegation by declining to interfere on
behalf of the South African Republics in
the present struggle.
The meeting between the delegates and
Secretary Hay was brought about in the
simplest manner.
At the hour fixed. 3:so O'Clock. the three
delegates appeared. and were shown at
once into the diplomatic room. Secre-
.tary Hay cordially visited his visitors
Just what: passed between them probably
will never be exactly known. for the
n5oers. IN departing, stated that they
had. and would have, nothing ITO Gay as
10 what happened.
For his part the Secretary of State was
more communicative, but before any state
ment made his way to the White House
and consulted with the President. Then
ne gave out through his secretary the
statement that any further action Of the
United States seemed unadvisable under
existing circumstances. The steps taken
by the President in his earnest desire to
see an end to the strife which has caused
SO mucl suffering may already be said to
have gone to the extreme limit permitted
to him.
The President himself shares in the
sincere desire that the war In South
Africa may soon come to speedy close,
but having done his full duty in preserv-
ing a strictly neutral position between
them. and seizng the first opportunity
that presented itself for rendering his
good offices in the interest OF peace, he
feels that in the present circumstances
no course is open to him except to persist
in the policy of impartial neutrality.
The Boer representatives will be re-
ceived by the President at the White
House at 10 o'clock tomorrow.

confidence of the students, will
by vigilance detect evils which

it will not expend its energies in
