England Fails to Settle With Her
Transvaal Soldiers.
New York, Aug.12.-A dispatch 10 the
Tribune from London says: Many i'm
perial yeomen who have returned from
South Africa are still complaining that
they have not vet received their ar
rears of pay. 1t appears that in the
case of. more than one yeomanry bat
talon, no account was kept of ad-
vances made to the rank and file in
South Africa. The war office author
tiles, consequently, cannot tell what
amounts are now due 10 some of the
men, and they have decided not to set
tie any claims until proper accounts
have been rendered.
The affair Is becoming perfect
scandal. and is certainly not simplify
ing the work of the recruiting ser
geant- In some instances the men
have been obliged to pawn the medals
which they so recently received at the
hands of the king.

Mr.. f. Hopkinson Smith has many

are his ability to write clever stories
and to paint dainty watercolors. That
which he really has, however, ought
to satisfy him to the extent of prevent
ing him from posing as that which he
is not--a philosophical Interpreter of
history. Mr. Smith has seen fit to in
dulge i'm some reflections upon "Un-
Gle Toms Cabin" and upon its author,
Mrs. stowe. While he is entitled to
hold such opinions as he chooses, and
there can be no limitation of his right
to express them. it is proper to OBJ
serve that the literary and political
bearings of Uncle Toms Cabin" were
discussed to rags years ago. and that
he is reviving an old theme to no pur-
pose whatever. except to obscure the
facts. Uncle Toms Cabin" is I'M
doubtedly the one American book of
the century which has most profound
ly affected the American people; but
to say that it and its author were
chiefly responsible for the Civil War
Is simply nonsense. Better Judges
of history than Mr.. Smith can ever
hope to be place the bottom cause Of

relative rights and powers of the
