with Enthusiasm.
The Hague, Dec. Paul Kruger

Cologne yesterday, and the second
chamber of the parliament authorized
its president to welcome him when he
arrived. which was duly done at the
railway station, where there was an
enormous throng cheering the Boer
chief A choir of 600 men and girls
chanted psalm - in part when kru-
ger left the train. and then there were
welcoming speeches by various Off
cialS. Kruger was driven to the Hotel
des hides. where he was greeted by
more eminent citizens, and a choir
sang a hymn.
Kruger met with wonderful recep-
tons everywhere en- route to this city.
He reached the frontier at Zevenaar.
Immense crowds gathered at all the
stations, which were decora ted with
flags; the burgomasters made speeches
and the school children sang. Kruger
made many replies. in most of which
he represented the Transvaal as little
child whom bad man wished to kill.
In one case he Illustrated his point
by drawing attention to a fair-haired
girl in the audience. IF that child
was outraged, said he, everybody
would run TO her rescue. but in my
country children and women are being
daily outraged by an enemy ten times
stronger than the TranSvaal."
Tie crowds remained long in front
Of the Hotel des Indies cheering and
singing Finally Kruger appeared on
the balcony, where he remained for q
few minutes. He then retired and
was not seen again. After dining pri-
v1tcly with his grandson, Eloff, he
went early to bed, being greatly IA
tigued- Beautiful floral offerings were

fight began in earnest yesterday when

and abruptnesS in the Queens speech,
and demanded a definite pronounce
ment of the governments policy, in
view OF the novel and dangerous

lions of the alleged cruelties to the
Beers, the burning of farms and SINH
lar seventies. He concurred in the
annexation OF the republics, but trust
ed the government possessed a definite
policy for speedily concluding the war.
His lordship was gratified at the Anglo
German agreement. but he said an at
tempt to capture the emperor and en-
press dOwager of China would be an
alarming undertaking.

Lord Salisbury replied. He said the
Transvaalers. the Free Staters and the
world should understand that there
could be no deviation from the policy
of the government. already outlined.
Anything resembling independence
never could be granted. The war
must proceed TO the inevitable issue.
We must let it be felt that no one. by
the issue of an inSolent and audaciouS
ultimatum. could force the British gov
eminent to humble itself and abandon
its rights. He could never allow that
a shred of independence should be
left" How soon the Free StaterS and
the Transvaalers would have anything
life self governing powers depended
on themselves. 1t might be years and

He was happy, however. TO be able to
quiet the fears of Lord Kimberley re
garding the pursuit of the emperor and
the empress. He had never heard of
such a suggestion.
Rosebery Attacks Everything.
The feature of the session was Lord
Rosebery's spirited attack on the gov
eminent. He was unsDaring in his
criticism Of the dissolution of parlia-

of a family numbering so many able
administrators. the reference being to
the inclusion In the cabinet of several
of Lord Salisbury's relatives. Then
he attacked Chamberlain for his al
legged interests in business concerns
with which the government some times
dealt, and said the pride of England
in the purity of its public men had
suffered.
After some more debate the address
was agreed to and the lords adjourned
to Monday.
