there is said TO have been a feeling that no
action should be taken specifically Tor
either place. as it was not thought expedi-
ent here to recommend Dewey for Vice
President, but the general sentiment was
that Bryan had already received the popu-
lar nomination and Endorsement or instruc-
tions for him were unnecessary. as he had
passed beyond the point Of needing any
thing of that kind. The platform denounces
the recent monetary act of Congress as
more infamous outrage on the consmon

sCHLEY NOT IN POLITICS.
He Would Not Run with w. J. Bryan IL
Nominated.

Nominated.
PHILADELPHIA, June 12.-The Times
tomorrow will say editorially: THE name
of Rear Admiral Schley has been repeatedly
suggested as on the list from which the
Democrats would be likely to choose their
candidate for President or Vice President.
but all who know the views of Rear Ad-
miral Schley uniformly declared that such
use of his name was not only unwarranted.
but against his own distinctly expressed
wishes and purposes. He was specially
careful before going to sea in command Of
the South Atlantic squadron to declare to
his friends that under no circumstances
would he consent to become a political cam
didate.
Notwithstanding the publicity given
these repeated and emphatic declarations of
Rear Admiral Schley, he has been fire.
quently discussed as a candidate for the
vice presidency on the ticket with Bry-
an. The expression from the rear admiral
of refusal to accept public office has just
been repeated by him in private letter
to the editor of the Times, dated Rio
Janeiro, May Is, from which the following
extract is taken:
Your editorials touching the talk of
placing me in nomination with Mr.. Bryan
reflect precisely what my views are.
know nothing of politics nor Of political
life, and under no circumstances would
allow the use of my name before any con-
vention for any Office whatever. / have
passed the age when presidential or any
other kind Of bees worry me. / know moth
ing of the duties of any political Office. and
am fully content to live the years yet left
me in quies retirement from the turmoil Of
any office. I am resolved irrevocably not
TO accept any nomination IL 1t were ten
dered. and if In my absence / should be
elected 1 would not serve
"This letter from Rear Admiral Schley
was written without any view OF publica-
ton, and in all the frankness of trusting
friendship, but 1t Is only an act Of justice to
him that his views thus clearly and point
edly expressed should be known TO the
country"

To BE CROWN COLONIES.
Plan of Government for the Transvaal
and Orange River Territory.

LONDON, June u, 1905 d. NIT is
learned that the government has at last
decided on plan for the civil government
of South Africa. The details are kept most
secret but it can safely be said that the
Orange River colony and the Transvaal
will become crown colonies, the latter prob
ably being renamed the Transvaal colony.
Sir Alfred Miner. it is declared, is to be
high commissioner of South Africa, in spite
Of the opposition he has incurred.
The crown colony form of government
can best be understood by reference to the
system in vogue in the West Indies. Sierra
Leone and Ceylon. Endeavors will be made
to put this in force as soon as possible in
the Transvaal and Orange River colonies,
though 1t Is scarcely expected that the de-
tails will be announced or some parts of
the work be initiated for a few months.
While the civil settlement will be drawn up
so as to be eventually independent of mill
tary enforcement. it is realized that the
initial work must be effected with the CO.
operation Of troops. Sir Alfred Miner ap-
pears to believe that the civil reorganiza-
tion and military pacification can proceed
simultaneously, and that a possible scat
tered rising will not seriously retard the
progress of reorganization once 1t is begun.
The Colonial Office is said to be Of opinion,
however. that the maintenance Of good
sized garrisons at such centers as Bloem-
fontein, Kroonstad johannesburg and Pre-
toria will be necessary for long time after
the crown colony system gets in working
order. For this reason and others put for
ward by Sir Alfred Miner the idea Of
granting an autonomous form of govern
ment has been abandoned. 1t is believed,
though it cannot be verified, that portion
of the Transvaal will be partitioned off to
Natal.
The whole arrangements may be roughly
described as coincidlng with the views ad-
vanced by the progressive as opposed to
those held by the Bondites The final steps
in this direction have been taken during the
last few days. Mr.. Chamberlain sent for
]. p Fitzpatrick author of ''The Trans
vaal from Within" who is well known In
connection with South African affairs, and
spent whole day in consultation with him.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick will sail for Cape Town
June 16 to join the advisory committee
which Sir Alfred Miner is forming.

REFORMING HIS CABINET.
Premier Schreiner Filling Vacancies
i'm Cape Colony Ministry.

CAPE TOWN, June 12.-Premier Schrein-
or is engaged in reforming the Cabinet
ewing to the resignation of Messrs. ]. X.
Merriman, treasurer, j. W. Sauer, commits
sioner of public works, and DR.. T. Water,
minister without portfolio. At the recent
caucus the prenier's policy gen.
orally condemned. The chief point OF
difference relates to the treatment of rebels
Messrs. Hofmeyer and T. E. Water. of the
opposition, desired general amnesty. Mr..
Schreiner urged a scheme recommended by
the imperial government, under which a
special tribunal will try the rebels. Con
victed leaders will be Imprisoned and per-
petually disfranchised and the rank and
file will be disfranchised for a period. 1t
is understood Mr.. Schreiners policy will be
supported by the entire Loyalist party.
which is indorsed by the loyal public opin-
ion Of South Africa.
