Diplomatic Relations With Argentine
are Strained,

Washington Dec. Secretary
Hay has received cablegram from
United States Minister Wilson at San
tiago de Chile confirming the report
that the resources of diplomacy had
been exhausted in the effort to settle
the dispute between Chile and Argen-

PEACE PLANS FAIL.
Recent Boer Meetings are Meant to
ProIonq War.

New York, Dec. 24.-The Daily
News special correspondent in South
Africa states that the peace move
ment among the Beers has broken
down, and that the object Of recent
meetings was to make fresh plans for
continuing the campaign, according
to the Tribune's London cores
pondent. A descent on Natal through
the Drakensburg is contemplated.
DeWet is to be the chief actor in this
move, and General Botha will cooper
ate with him from the north. The
correspondent adds the surprising
information that Swat duplicity has
resulted in arms ammunition and cor
respondence from Europe getting
across the border and that the Beers
are we'll mounted and provisioned.
New York. Dec 24.-According to
the Tribune's London correspondent
dispatch has been received by the
war office from Lord Kitchener for
warding further instances of alleged
murders of natives by the Beers.
Most of the cases rest solely upon ma.
tive testimony, among them being a
horrible story of burning alive kafir
named Franz. He was the driver of
wagon forming part of British
convoy captured between Pretoria
and Rustenburg year ago. Two
Beers, it is alleged, wrapped him in
buck sail and piled bags of oats on
them. They then poured paraf1ine on
the heap and set fire to it.

and drove the Beers from the kopie.
The British casualties were heavy.
Damant was dangerously wounded,
two officers and twenty men were
killed and three officers and seven

Later, the Beers, under flag Of

their dead. They admitted having
buried twenty men.
