With Beers
Immense Gathering at Chicago
Censures British Methods.

Win Undying Fame.
CALL TO US FOR AID

Chicago, Dec. H. An enthusiastic
meeting to protest against British
methods in South Africa was held in
this city tonight.
The program opened with the song
THE True Heart" sung by 10 Ger
man singing societies of Chicago. DR.
Hiram Thomas, head of the Peoples
church, followed with a prayer fol
the women and children in South AT
RIGA prison camps. Then followed
short addresses by Judge Theodore
Brentano and Judge Murray F. tn
ley, chairman of the Chicago branch
of the American-Transvaal league, un
der the auspices of which the meet
ing was held.
There were 500 people on the sage
when Mr.. Cochran, the orator Of The
evening, arose and bowed in recog III
ton of the tumult of applause which
greeted him. He said in part:
However men may differ abo::t the
invasion of the South African ropub
lies, all are agreed that the lestoEa
ton of peace is in the highest de-
gree desirable. There are but two
ways in which the war can be ter
minated-either the Beers must sur
render or the English government
must abandon the attempt to subdue
them. 1t is quite generally assumed
that the resistance of the Beers can
not be successful, and if this be true
they would not be justified in con.
tinuing a struggle which involves
fruitless. loss of life and waste OF
property, even though the losses in.
fiicted ON their enemy were ten fold
greater than they suffer themselves,
for bloodshed when useless is always
indefensible.
But is it true that the resistance
of the Beers is hopeless? Since the
fall # Pretoria it certainly has not
been fruitless: it has been justified
by most important results. Lord Sal.
isbury's position that nothing but 40
solute surrender would be considered
has been abandoned, and today the
burghers could secure almost any
terms short of complete acknuwleig-
ment of their independence. As their
resistance has not been fruitless,
neither is their struggle for independ.

ence hopeless. On the contrary, IL
their resistance be prolonged for
few months the abandonment. of the
struggle to subdue them b., Grear
Iritain is inevitable"
The capacity OF the Beers to main
tain the struggle is proved beyond u
doubt by the barbarity of the methods
employed to subdue them. The Eng.
lish government can not AVOID sup
porting the women and children made
homeless by the destruction Of the
farms. With thhe support OF his wo-
men and children imposed upon Eng.
land, while his lands have been mude
desolate and unproductive the Boer
soldier is free to continue in TIE
field as long as he can secure by cap
ture abundant supplies Of food and
arms from the English forces. His
reputation for humanity and courage
make the English soldier prefer sur
rendering to facing his rifle.
''The conquest OF the Transvaal,
while it might be dangerous to the
burghers, would be fatal to England.
The people who have the greatest in.
terest Of all in the defeat of the
English arms are the people of Eng
land. They can be saved from this
peril Civilization can be delivered
from this cloud which darkens it's
horizon if the conscience of the Eng
fish people be awakened. To do this
the most effective means is to show
them that the people of this country
do not sympathize with the scheme
of conquest which the English govern
ment has undertaken.
providence has so ordered events
that the president of the United
States can conclude this bitter quar-
rel. 1t is an extraordinary opportu-
nifty offered to an extraordinary man.
1t would not be necessary to draw
the sword, to make any threat of
armed intervention, or to take an un-
friendly attitude. One word spoken
to the English ambassador or in hear
ing of the English nation would re-
store peace, establish justice, secure
liberty to these burghers, promnts
enormously the prosperity of the hui.
man race and bring Unreasonable
glory to the American nation. Will
that word be spoken? Never in the
history have such momentous results
hung on the lips of human being.
Will Theodore Roosevelt improve
this opportunity for himself, his coun.

A letter from Carl Schurz was read,
in which he alluded to the terrible
spectacle presented by the Boer war;"
Resolutions were adopted pledging
those present to use their utmost
powers in protesting to members in

dent to enforce the treaty of Wash.
ington to prevent the British gov
eminent from using American ports
or waters in augmenting their sup
plies of war, and to use every means
in his power to bring to an end the
horrors of the war.
The meeting closed with a remarka-
BILE demonstration. Following the
speech making the great audience
roared it's approval of the Boer cause,
the cheering being long continued.
Contributions were asked for the re-
lief of the stricken women and chill
dren in the South African camps.
Something over $500 was raised.

GASOLINE CAUSES FIRE.
Miss Colbourne Extinguishes Blaze
at Keogh-MeKenna Hospital.

A small blaze, started by a gasoline
stove, caused some excitement at the
Keogh- McKenna hospital yesterday
morning Fortunately no one was in
jured. and, owing to the prompt and
plucky action Of Miss Colburne. one of
the nurses, there was but slight dam
age from the fire.
The stove was on the second floor adj
joining the operating room and was
used for sterilizing the instruments.
Miss Colburne attempted to light the
stove and as she struck the match
there was an explosion OF some gasO-
line that had been spilled.
The explosion did not harm the room
in which it occurred, but the plaster
ceiling of the sick ward underneath
was showered down, causing great eX-
element in the ward for a while one
of the strange features was that while
the fire spread Immediately in the up
stairs room. Miss COlbOurne, who was
directly over the stove, was not harmed
in the least. She quickly seized the
burning curtains and other articles OF
drapery and hurled them out the win
dow. The fire department was called,
but the fire had been extinguished be
fore it arrived. The damage amounted
to only about SIS or $40.
