the continuation of the service coming
up for consideration, it may be mention
ed. however (the Minister observes), that
the colony is now paying at the rate of

for the transport of it's outward mails.
Up to the present there y no indication
that Australia will substitute the service.

Chinese Charge Ii With Carrying
Out Orders of Reac-
tionists.

Victoria, B. c., April 17.-News re-
ceived from the steamer Tosa Maru is
as follows: The norean chief JUS
tice, Kim Yuen Jut, has been impris-
oned because of intrigue for the sale
of Rose ISLAM, which dominates Che
mulpo, to the Japanese.
Dispatches from Chinese officials at
Hsian are published by the North Chi
ma ably News, in which [ is stated
that Lii Hung Chang carries out the
orders of the reactionists, under
Yueng Lu, n favoring Russian control
in Manchuria Yueng LUIS purpose is
stated to be to retire Russia from the
concert of powers by promise of spe-
cial provisions in Manchuria and his
efforts are to provoke a European war.
Yueng Ju, minister to Russia, is said
by the writer to be in the intrigue.
The same paper publishes another
dispatch from the Chinese court in
which 1t is stated that the dowager
empress angrily stated in answer to
q question as to when she and the EN-.
peror would return to Pekln that she
had not thought of returning until the
foreign troops were all withdrawn.
A serious outbreak of incendiarism
is reported from Tien Tsin, among the

NOT YET pAcIFlED
Further Serious Trouble Expected
In Affected Provinces
of China.

Pekin, April 17.-Trustworthy Chi
nese report that troops in large num-
bers are massing in the province of
Shan ST, near the frontier of the prov
ince of Chi l.. Well informed natives
prophesy further trouble.
1t is impossible to ascertain wheth-
er the court is playing a double game
or it's authority is insufficient to pre-
vent Chinese generals acting in a man
ner likely to provoke hostilities. The
fact that for many months there has
been nothing in the shape of a de-
facto government favors the latter
hypothesis. Probably a great deal
will depend upon the Franco-German
expedition inficting sore defeat upon
the Chinese who have transgressed
the agreement by entering into the
sphere of the allies. If these offend
ers are thoroughly punished it is like
ly to produce a good effect.

TELLS HIS MISSION
Montague White Tells Why He
Visits the United
States.

New York, April 16-Montague
White, who was consul general for
the Transvaal in London, is in this
city.
When interviewed today Mr.. White
was non-committal regarding his OBJ
ject in coming to this country. He
said he intended visiting the leading
cities and obtaining the views of
prominent Boer sympathizers regard
ing the present situation, but he de-
MED that his visit was for the purpose
of consulting Secretary Hay in the
matter Of the proposed visit of Presi-
dent Kruger to this country.
''Is it true" he was asked, that an
address to the American people was
outlined by you, an address which
Kruger was expected to approve and
sign?"
st is not" he replied. During a
short conversation with a friend of
mine at Paris recently, l was asked my
opinion in the matter of drawing up
such an address, but it was not done.

the situation"
"Do you think President Kruger will
visit American" was asked
81 think ne is too feeble to attempt
such a thing.
DO the Beers ask for absolute lib
erty as a condition for peace?"
THAT is too strong a phrase White
answered. "We heard some time ago
that Lord Kitchener demanded uncon.
ditional surrender, and Botha demand
ed absolute liberty, but these terms
are toe strong. | al only say that
the Beers would rather die fighting
than give unconditional surrender

by President Steyn and Generals

British Exclusion Of American Meats

Washington, April 17.-Ambassador
Choate has not been heard from as yet
in reply to an inquiry of the state de-
exclusion OF certain kinds of Ameri-

by the british authorities upon the

made the urgency of the matters ap-
pears to be somewhat relieved by
the explanations given in press cables
and emanating from the official
authorities in London. These show
that the exclusion was in no sense
general, but was confined to articles
used by the British war office. Under
these circumstances the officials at

than it seemed to warrant when first

nOuncement.

the Northern Pacific directors in this
city today, the details of the Bur
lington deal were discussed. A mem
Der of the board said Immediately
after the meeting adjourned that mat
tiers we're not yet in shape for an
official announcement.
1t is believed that the Chicago, Bur-
lington & Quincy road will be con-
trolled Jointly by the Northern Pacific
and the Great Northern railroads.
James j. Hi and his associates are
said to have about 100000 shares of
the Burlington stocks which they have
bought within the last two months 1t
is the purpose of this syndicate to Of
fer to take all of the shares at a uni
form price and payment will be made
in new 3R per cent bonds. 1t is not
likely that there will be any further
stock purchased for cash.
The report that the Northern Pa
cific and the Great Northern and Bur-
lington roads are to be united in one
general company is not credited here.
The laws of the different states
through which the Northern Pacific
and the Great Northern roads run for

peting lines. There is no law, how
ever, forbidding two or more railroad
companies from jointly OWING anoth-

PAIRING THEM DOWN..
Indemnity Claims Smaller Than at
First Reported.


Washington, April 16.-Notwith-
landing the reports from Pekin of
the slow progress of the negotia-
lions on the subject of indemnity, Off
Gals here are not without hope that
a way may be found out of the pres
ent complications. Later figures are
coming in respecting the indemnity
claims, which slightly modify these
claims as reported from other sources.
For instance, the French claim is now
given as $56, 900, 600, instead of $685.
100000, as reported. The Russian
claim is about $S7, 900, 900. The claim
of Great Britain is only about ST.
OOO, 900. The Japanese claim, also, has
been cut down to less than 5000 900.
Germany's claim is elastic, ranging
from $50, 100000 to $40, 900, 900. Lit
tie powers that furnished no troops at
all or an insignificant number, loom
up with big bills. Belgium wants &c.
100000, and similar claims are pre-
sented by Holland and Spain.

New York, April I'm discussing

the purchasing companies would gain,
of the h. est authorities in
Northern Pacific affairs said to the
Evening Fost:
Instead of the acquisition of the

though it is rue that no idea was en-
tertained until of tate .Aa. it would

was discussed by the oticials and by
some of the Northern Pacific direc-
tors over two years ago and we then
had figures from u chief officers,
showing the value of the property to
us. But our credit was .nen relative
~ low; common stock was selling
low in the nIIles, and purchase of the
Burlington then, even if it could have
peen acquired, was impossible from
II own standpoint.
In fact, our company could not
acquire it alone, nor could the Great
Northern alone. In these recent negO-
tiations the Burlington people have
insisted on the two roads acting joint
ly to safeguard themselves as far as
possible in the matter of security. 1t
was the mill interest in the two prop
critics which has made it possible for
the Burlington to pass mot our con-

to get the cost of the Burlington to

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.
Wealthy Californian Turns Up Miss
ing In Texas.

Ell Paso, TEX, April 17.-4here has
been a great deal of activity in police
circles here today over the mysterious
disappearance from a train of G. S.
Young, a wealthy oil well owner of
Bakersfield, Cal. Young was going
to Beaumont where he is interested
in oil.
Fifteen miles from Ell Paso his COM
panions noticed that Aoung was miss
ing. Search failed to reveal him and
notice was sent back TO 81 Paso.. His
hat and valise were left in the coach
and it is believed that he jumped or
fell from the moving tran. 1t is al
most certain that he was not killed
by the train as the body was not found
after dilgent search.
