Be(S Ask ihe War Be Stopped
Court Of Arbitration Is Asked to
Settle War with England.

Charles d. Pierce, representative in the
United States Of the Orange Free State,
has received copy of the appeal made by
the Beers to the Administrative Council Of
the Permanent Court Of Arbitration at The
Hague. A translation Of the appeal, which
is dated The Hague, Sept. 10, follows:
"UDder date Of April 8 last the then
Chairman of your council communicated to
the representatives of both states that the
Permanent Court of Arbitration had been
constituted.
s'Attention was there by specially called
to the proviso in The Hague convention of
July 20, 1899, for the peaceful settlement
Of international differences whereby the ju.
risdiction Of the Permanent Court could he
extended to differences betpeen powers
which had not become signatories.
"Immediately upon receipt of this com.
mupication notification was made, on behalf
Of the Governments of both the states rep
resented by the undersigned, to His Excell
ency the then President Of your council
that these Governments would be pleased
II the war being waged in South Africa
could be terminated by the arbitrament Of
this conrt.
&NVW buob tAAto VOL hnc SVhO Oh IVA
nearly two years without any prospects Of
an end thereto except by submission to arbi-
tratioD, the desirsbility for such peaceful
termination, cannot but become more and
more acknowledged.
NThe states represented by the under
signed, therefore, consider that they should
rereat the proposal already made by them
before the war, but rejected by England, to
submit to arbitration the settlement of the
differences which gave rise to the war.
"In this they particularly have in view
the question whether England is right in
alleging that any action was taken by the re-.
puhlics which had for its object the suppress
sion of the English element in or Its expul.
siop from South Africa, and generally
whether IhU IvPubiirs bavu mutc themselves
guilty of any act which would give Englar d
the right to leprive them of their indepen
dence.

with all the more confidence now that the
