will Botha Surrender.

A report was given currency in Lon
don yesterday to the effect that Gen.
eral Botha's concentration at Hond-
weni. on the boundary of Zululand, is
not for the purpose of fighting, but with
~ view to surrender, under an arrange
nlent already agreed upon with Lord
Kitchener, who is marching on Hond-
weni in considerable force
We have been so often misled by such
reports that they have ceased to make
any impression, and still this one may
be true. General Borha. doubtless, is
too sensible man not to realize the
hopelessness OF the cause in which he
is engaged, and not to feel that con-
tinued resistance can have no other re-
suit than to increase the misery and
devastation of the country. Hitherto,
he has been loyal to President Kruger
and willing to carry out the unrelenting
and desperate policy of the old Boer
leader. But the latter has been little
in evidence recently, and 1t may be
that rumors respecting his mental con-
dition may have been not without some
foundation. In that case 1t is possible
that Botha and others in the field may
have decided to cut loose from him and
take independent action in settling the
war.
1t is beyond question, apparently,
that the surrender of the Boer COM
mandant general, with the four thous-
and burghers he is said 10 have with
him, would mark the end of formal hos
tilities. There might be small bands
still at large, and irreconcilable gueril-
la chiefs might make considerable trou-
BILE for some time; but were Botha and
his little army to lay down their arms
now, what fragments of their country
men might try TO keep up predatory
warfare would not amount to anything
important, and those who took part in
il would be regarded and treated as
banditti.

foot race and not a fight, and that q
state of war" did not exist.
President MarroQuin of Colombia APP
pears to be playing much the same kind
of game. Although his representatives
are quite certain that the invasion OF
Venezuela was solely by revolutionists
and was not participated in by his reg
ular army, it is alleged on the other
side that. after the sanguinary engage
ment, it was discovered that the dead,
wounded, and captured Colombians
wore the regular uniform OF their coun-
try. that number of regular Colon
bian battalions had taken part in the
battle, and that the general and field
officers in command of TIE invaders
were men well known and prominent
in the Colombian army.
Still we should not allow a small dis
crepancy to interfere with our policy.
AS long as Marroquin and Asphalt An
drade will continue their attempts to
overthrow liberalism and Castro in
Venezuela, we can be blind to anything
and it would be inconsistent in us to
assert the doctrine that where the facts
and conditions of war are notorious it
is not permissible to deny that "a state
of war" exists; because in so doing we
should be embarrassed by our record
in China. Moreover, we must play the
opportunist role to the point where in
PREVENTION may be possible with view
to getting rid of Castro and helping the
Asphalt Trust to monopolize the Ber-
mudez deposits. This is the worthy
task, which it is the hope of one of our
best business interests" that our
splendid diplomacy" may tackle and
accomplish in the course of the fracas.
If liberalism in both Colombia and
Venezuela should be crushed incidental
ly. what is that to us? This is COM
mercial and not sentimental nation.

The Invasion of Venezuela.

1t is said that the Administration

but only personally, and that he in

matter for which the Bogota Gov
eminent is not responsible, creates the
| suspicion that some of the Latin
American statesmen have been study

forts. and to slaughter hundreds of SOL

Be IL remembered that we never
