Long "yive Kruger"
Cologne. Dec. 3.-Thousands of peo-
pie waited yesterday in the vicinity of
the Cathedral hotel to catch glimpse
of Kruger, who, when replying to de-
putation of Bonn students in the aft
ernoon, described the educational pro-
gress Of the Transvaal, thanked the
students for their kind welcome, and
shook hands with each. Afterward he
appeared upon the balcony, where he
was loudly cheered from below. Hav-
ing rested for half an hour he went
into the vestibule of the hotel, which
was crowded with visitors. Here, re-
plying to deputation from the PAN
German league wishing him success,
he referred to the close relationship be-
tween the Beers and the Germans. He
will remain here probably until
Wednesday.
He left Paris Saturday at 1:4O D.
NJ, and his journey through northern
France was attended by scenes similar
to those witnessed at Marseilles and
Paris. At nearly every station crowds
had gathered which waved hats and
handkerchiefs and cheered the train
as it whirled along. At Chartered, the
first stop on Belgian territory, rigor-
GUS police measures had been taken to
prevent the invasion of the station, but
the people were stronger than the po-
lice and rushed on the platform and
gave vent to their feelings in cries
favorable to the Beers. This was the
cause also at Mamur, Liege and when
he arrived here, where the welcome

ers of the house are preparing to press
with great vigor the important bust
ness of the short session. Already con-
siderable preliminary committee work
has been done on the important meas.
ures--the bill for the reduction of the
war revenue taxes, the army reorgan-
ization bill, the river and harbor bill
and several of the appropriation bills
and the legislative mill will start I'M
der full head of steam. The army
reorganization bill is considered to be
particularly urgent, owing to the posi-
bility of Its netting strenuous OPPOSE
ton after it reaches the senate, and it
is the intention of the leaders to get it
out of the way at the earliest possible
moment.
The Democrats will caucus on the
army bill today, and the Indications
now are that they will offer as sub
stitute for the permanent reorganiza-
ton measure bill extending for two
or three years the present law for a
provisional army. The bill to reduce
the war revenue taxes has been prac-
tically completed by the Republican
members of the ways and means COM
mittee, and it will be submitted to
the full committee tomorrow, unless
In the meantime a caucus of the Re
,,nblicans should be found to be adj
visable. Some of the Republican mem
bers are not satisfied with the list of
! articles relieved of taxation by the bill,
andiftoomuch opposition becomes evil
dent the leaders probably will call a
conference or caucus for the purpose
of adjusting and harmonizing differ
ences.
On Thursday the Grout oleomargar-
Inc bill will come up as a special or
der under a rule made at the last ses-
sion. 1t imposes tax of ten cents a
pound on oleomargarine, butterine or
other manufactured buffers colored in
imitation of butter. 1t has strong
backing from the dairy interests and
its passage is regarded as foregone
conclusion.
The deaths of the late Representa-
tives DAILY of New Jersey and Hofeck-

HIS JOURNEY A TR1UMPHAL TOUR.
Fighting in South Africa Ends as
Usual-Boers Get Away-Cape
Dutch Sentiment.

Berlin, Dec. 8. - Kruger has aban-
doned his proposed visit to Berlin,
owing to the receipt of an official in
timation that Emperor William re-
grets that in consequence Of previous
arrangements he will be unable to re-
ceive him. The Boer statesman will
therefore proceed direct from Cologne
for Holland. He telegraphed to this
effect Saturday afternoon. The emper-
or's intimation was conveyed to Mr..
Kruger by the German envoy at Lux
embourg, who arrived at Cologne yes
terday. The Cologne Gazette, in
an inspired communique, says:
'Mr. Kruger's visit is not agree
able to Germany, his aim be-
ing to obtain intervention in South
Africa. 1t would be grave political
mistake-it would be even great
crime-to allow him to entertain even
spark of hope that Germany will
render him any practical support.
This declaration is accompanied with
reprOaches, Kruger being charged with
having encouraged useless guerilla
warfare and disregarded Gemany's adj
vice when he might have still followed
it." The press generally strikes the
same note.
And the Boers Got Away.
Bloemfontein, Dec. 3-Further de-
tails have been received regarding the
fight near Rietfontein between the
British under General Paget and the
Beers under Commandments Viljoen
and Erasmus, Nov. % and 20. Cen
eral Paget, toward evening on the sec
ond day, closed in upon the Boer po-
sition with the intention Of attacking
next day at dawn. The Beers, how
ever. with reinforcements, including
three guns, made desperate attack
and severe fighting ensued. The Bores,
who were repulsed with heavy loss,
withdrew in northeasterly direction.
General Paget having occupied their
position sent mounted infantry in
pursuit. The New Zealanders dis
played great gallantry, losing five Out
OF six officers wounded.

Mrs. Luise DeLassomm of San Fran

Africa a short while ago and relates
some interesting impressions of the
Beers. The Beers impressed me as
being a very uncouth sort Of people,"
she says, although those that we met
were pleasant enough. II is easy to
see that they are required to pay little
attention to the courtesies of life while
young, so that their are de-
Void OF polish, and they frequently
nave a surly air, which does not by
any means create a favorable impress
sion upon strangers. But of their
nghting qualities there can be no sues-
ton. and England need not expect to
suDdue them until their last shot has
been fired and their last ounce of
strength is exhausted. There is no
more determined and stubborn race
OF people on earth than the Beers.

are taught the use of firearms as soon
as they are old enough to hold a gun.

generation to another the Beers have
