no time, while at his post, did Macrum
report TO the department any instance OF
violation by the opening or otherwise OF
his official mail by the British censor at
Durham, or any person or persons what
soever, there or elsewhere. Neither has
he reported since he left Pretoria, al
though having the amplest opportunity
TO do 30 by mail, while on his way home.
and In person when he reported to the

"Answering the second part OF the

secretary OF state has the honor TO say
that there IL no truth In the charge that
secret alliance exists between the
republic OF the United States and the
empire OF Great Britain; that no form OF
secret alliance f. possible under the con.
