WOULD RATHER HAVE
GEN. DEWET KILLED

London, March ia special dispatch
from Durham, Natal says the Boer
commanders are holding a meeting at
Petersburg in northern Trausvaal to
discuss the position and the advisable
ity of continuation of the war.
Whatever the result of the peace ne
gotiations between General Kitchener
and General Botha. it is tolerably GER
tain that the rumOrS of the inclusion
of General Dewet in any form of am
nesty are not based on fact. General
Kitcheners personal views of the BOer
leader are not known in Pail Mall, but
if the war office is consulted. the Of
ficials there would rather see Dewet
killed in action than taken alive. One
of the officials responsible for the di-
rection of the affairs of the army said
to a representative of the Associated
Press:
Il cannot see how Kitchener can
possibly accept Dewet's surrender. If
he ever gets him he will be obliged
to try him for his recent alleged muir
derS of prisoners. I have no doubt
that the verdict of either a military
or q civil court would be death and if
such a verdict was carried out there
would be a horrible howl on the con-
tinent and in America. And. indeed,
one would be sorry to see such q brave
fighter meet such an end. Therefore.
we can only hope Dewet will either
be let out of the country or shot in
hattie"
