PREPARING FOR KRUGER.
Boer Sympathizers Say He Will Visit
America in the Fall.

New York, June 21.-According to
a Times special from Washington the
Boer sympathizers in the United
States are making preparations for a
visit by Mr. Kruger to this country
in the autumn, which was announced
some time ago by Montagu White, the
Transvaal representative in Washing
ton. C. w. Van der Hoogt, an active
Boer sympathizer of Washington, who
has just returned there from New
York, says a conference Of leading
pro-Boers was held on Saturday. Sun
day and Monday, and that the chair
man OF the reception committee was
chosen. He will be Consul General
Pierce of the Orange Free State,
whose office is in New York.
Mr. Van der Hoogt says the Boer
agents in this country are in posses
sion of complete information, both by
telegraph and by mail, about the prog
Iess of the war, and that their cable
advices show that Mrs. Botha's visit
70 Mr.. Kruger is in no way connected
with peace negotiations. Mrs. Botha
took with her to Europe detailed in
formation from her husband and from
General Schaalkburger, the acting
president.

CUBAN SUGAR CROP.
This Years Production Worth About
S5O.OOOOOO.

New York, June 21.-The CORE
spondent of The Tribune, writing from
MatanZas, says:
The sugar crop figures for this sea
son are encouraging enough. In round
numbers the production is fixed at
100000 tons. and this has brought not
far from $4,000, 900. The payment
for the crop has helped TO reduce the
unfavorable trade balance against the
island. While the price has been fair,
had il been a shade higher the pro-
duction would have reached Goo.oO0
tons: but many of the planters pre-
ferred not to grind. believing that
prices will be a little better next year

son is about one-thrd larger than dur
ing the past year. 1t is not likely that
much of the new lands which are
being planted in the eastern end OF
the island in the belief that tariff con-
ce-sions will be made BY the Unite
States will have cane ready for grind
ing within the nexi - months. yet
there is every reason to look fer a
crop Of SEQ 600 tons to S50ooa tons

Paper on Anarchism.

The archdeacon of Westminster contrib
utes a thoughtful paper to the absorbing
question Of "Anarchism: Its Causes and
Cure" Anarchy, he says, is not to be ex-
terminated by wreaking vengeance on in
dividuals, though a murderous ruffian like
Czolgosz is better out of the world. But IL
YOU execute every known anarchist in the
world you have not really touched the evil.
Anarchism is the fruitage Of atheism, and
the archdeacon quotes from the speech OF
a noted anarchist the phrase, THE first lie
is God, the second lie is the idea of right"
The archdeacon himself considers the cause
of anarchism to be two-fold. First. the in
adequacy Of the conventional conception
of the Ruler of the Universe, and, secondly,
the instability of the equilibrium of the
whole commercial system of civilized ma
tions. In the "christianizing of COM
merce" he sees hope of better times, when
there will be an end Of anarchism.
