STEYN STILL HOPES.

He Has Full Confidence in the Future
and Will Continue the Struggle.
BY Associated Press:
London, July 2O.-The war Office is
sued late last night dispatch from
Lord Kitchener giving the correspond
ence between Mr.. Reitz and Mr.. Steyn
that was captured with the latter's
baggage at Lindley, July II. Mr..
Reitz, under date of May l, wrote
Steyn that meeting Of the Trans
vaal government had been held, at
tended by General Botha, General Val
joen and Mr.. Desmutz to consider the
situation. He went on to catalogue
the details, .Ae numerous surrenders
of Burghers, entailing a responsibility
on the government, the rapidly de-
creasing supply of ammunition. the
disintegration of the government and
the lack of any definite assurances of
European Intervention.
I'm view of these facts" he said,
"the government has decided to ad-
dress a message to President Kru-
ger, pointing out the terrible condi-
tions. The time has passed for us to
let matters drift as at present. We
must make final STEP"
Mr.. Steyn, replying May Is, up.
Draids Mr.. Reitz with weakness, say
ing: There is still sufficient ammuni-
tion to continue the struggle. You
ask what prospect there is of a sue
cessful termination. l ask what
chance there was for two small re-
publics when they declared war
against the mighty power of Great
Britain. However, we trusted in God
and in European Intervention. What
reason is there now to place less
trust in God? l have seen recent Eu-
ropean newspapers and l firmly be-
lieve complications will arise in a
few months which will be to our good
fortune"
Mr.. Steyn also says that the fact
that Mr.. Kruger and the Boer dele.
gates remain in Europe convinces
him that at present they consider the
cause still hopeful.

COST OF MAINTAINING ARMY.
What UrcIe Sam Pays for Keeping
Best Army in the World.

What Urcle Sam Pays for Keeping
Best Army in the World.
BY Associated Press:
Washington, July 18.-In proportion
to it's size, the United States military
establishment is the most expensive
in the world. According to the Off
cial notes of military interest prepar-
ed by Lieutenant Colonel Simpson, it
is shown that the cost of maintaining
one soldier in the American army for
one year is $1,O14.
The nearest approach to this is Ger
many, with $2O1, while Russia pays
less than any other government with
S155 for each man. A comparative
statement is made which shows the
effectiveness of the different armies,
the cost of maintaining them for a
year and the cost of one soldier for
the same period.
An analysis of this table shows that
the American army, which is conced-
ed by military authorities to be the
best in the world for it's size, costs
$114,220,oO0 for 10000 men, while the
military establishment of France costs
little over $1O,OOO,OO0 more, or $124,-
491,500 for maintaining an army of
589,215, or nearly eight times as
large as that of the United States.
For only $27,072.S0o more than is
paid by the United States, Russia
maintains an army nearly ten times
larger than the American establish
ment, the number of men being 732,-
COS, costing $141.392,S25. For a great
deal less than half it costs to main
tain the American army, Italy has an
establishment nearly three times as
large and for little more than half
the expenses of keeping the United
States army in fighting shape, Aus
tria has an establishment more than
four times larger.

Attacked in History. Long and samp.
SON Approve Statements.
General Felix Agnus, publisher Of
the Baltimore American, has written
the following letter to President Nc
kinley, which was sent by wire:
"Wm. Mckinley, president, Canton.
Ohio: McLay's history of the navy
is the standard in use at the naval
academy In the third volume, just
issued, the historian charges Rear
Admiral Schley with being a coward,
liar, incompetent and insubordinate.
In an interview in the American this
morning, McLay, the historian. who is
q navy department clerk, classed as
laborer, and attached to the Brook
lyn navy yard, says that proofs OF
this third volume, which snould have
told the most glorious story in all our
naval annals, were submitted to Sec
retary Long and Admiral Sampson
and approved by them in advance OF
publication, also that Long put him in
his present position after he had read
and approved this serious attack upon
Admiral Schley.
These proofs were also submitted
to Admiral Dewey, who refused to
read them. II aught were needed to
convince any fair minded man that
a clique in the navy department has
conspired to traduce the hero of San
tiago and that the conspiracy was car
rled into execution while that brave
and gallant officer was suffering ex-
patriation on the fever-infected coast
of South America, this should furnish
it. Will you, Mr.. President, in view
of this, sit quietly by and permit
these conspirators to continue their
diabolical work? Every justice-lov-
ing American appeals to you to in
terv6ne in the name and for the sake
of fair play. Next to being right at all
times, which no man ever was, the
best thing is to find out as soon as
possible that you are wrong and right
yourself Immediately"
