Mr.. Burdett-C -Coutts. NJ P. arraigns the South
African Hospitals Commission in long letter
published this morning. He submits that the
report was weak inconclusiye and equivocaL
and repeats all the charges that he brought
against the members Of the Commission when
their names were submitted to Parliament. HIS
great point is TO convince the British public
that the Commission, as he has always held,
was tainted one. and thar the worst is not
known about the care Of British sick and

SELEE FOR GOTHAM.
Boston Manager Tried to Sign Will
liams For the Giants.

Pittsburg, Oct. 1.-THE actions of
Frank Selee, former manager of the
Boston baseball team, while here have
led to the belief that the report that
he is to head the New York team next
season is true. Incidentally it would
appear that if Selee is to manage
Freedman's men he intends to have
winning aggregation. When the Bos
tons were playing the last series of
games last week Jimmy Williams,
third baseman of Mugsy McGraw's
American league team, was here on
visit, expressing regret that he had
jumped Baltimore after signing with
Pittsburg. Selee asked President Drey
fuss if he would relinquish his baseball
law hold on Williams and DreyfusS
assented Thareupon Selee asked VIII
liams to join the New York team next
season. He didn't say he was to man
age the club, but it is believed Freed
man would not have had him making
negotiations. with players unless he in
tended to appoint him as manager.
