The presidents of the Transvaal
and Orange Free State, February 8

to the usages of war;"
Later Generals Botha and DeWet
made similar complaints of the God
less barbarities and astrocities Of the
British and their robber patrols.
Lord Roberts replied in a similar
vein TO all the protests, declaring
that the British did not encourage
the barbarities, but that the burning
of farm buildings was necessitated by
treacherous shooting of the British
from farm houses and the wrecking
of trains, and accusing the Beers OF
wanton depreciation and guerilla tao
tics, which he was compelled to re-
press by exceptional measures, al

A T~REACHEROUS COAST
Steamer Strikes Hidden Rocks
and Goes Down-crew
Saved.

st. John, N. B., June 29-The
anchor line steamer Armenia, on her
way to st. John from New York, went
ashore in a fog this morning on Mig
ger head, about 20 miles from this
point, and all hopes of saving the
vessel r about abandoned. Tugs
were sent to her rescue. They made
every attempt to move the steamer,
but met with total failure, and the
attempt was given up.
The crew is being taken off in tugs
and brought here. The falling tide
caused the seamer to careen and she
now lies on her side, the water rush
ing into her hold and with the out
look at high tide that she would lie
totally submerged.

Ottawa, June 29-The Canadian

Pennsylvania Makes Two Fortu-

Henley, Eng, June 29-In the
drawing for positions in the rowing
races for the grand challenge cup,
the University of Pennsylvania had
the good fortune today to get the
Bucks side, which gives an estimated
advantage of from n to two
lengths. In the drawing for pairs,
Pennsylvania drew the London row
ing club, one of the weakest crews
here. The Leander crew drew New
College.
The winner of the Pennsylvania

This is generally taken to signify
that Pennsylvania gets into the final
heat, probably with Leander, as the
weakest clubs.
The Pennsylvanians padded over
the course this morning in good
shape and without any apparent di
minution in form. They will row
again this afternoon.

MEXICAN MONEY MARKET.

New Refinery.
Washington, June 29-The recent
stringency in Mexico's money mar
ket, caused by the heavy expectation
of Mexican silver, has been relieved
to a certain extent, according to a
communication received at the state
department from United States Con
sui General Hanna at Monterey. Be
fore the opening Of the great refinery
at Monterey, it al necessary to ship
all the silver bullion from the Mon
terey smelters to the United States to
be refined, and but little of it went
back to Mexico. Now this is an un-
necessary procedure, the bullion be-
ing refined at Monterey and turned
over to the Mexican mint.
For some time the scarcity of sill.
yer sent the market price of Mexi-
can silver cion up, but now that the
demand is better supplied, the price
of the coin has declined. The con
sui general notes that refined silver
is being shipped into Mexico from
Omaha for the use of the minis.

Order Restraining Betting and Pool
Selling Dissolved.
Chicago, June 28-Race promoters
and pool sellers at Harlem race track
need have no further fear of injunc-
ton from the superior court Of Cook
county.
The order restraining betting and
pool selling at the track was dissolv-
ed this afternoon by Judge Stein
upon the ground that the court of
chancery, which issued the restain-
ing order, shall not exercise it's right
of injunction where a remedy at law
exists. The actions complained of in
the application for the injunction,
Judge Stein asserted, lie entirely
within the jurisdiction of the crimi-
nal court.
The attorneys contending for the
injunction asked leave to appeal,
but an appeal does not lie from an
order dissolving a temporary injunc-
ton, so they were compelled to ask
for a dismissal. An appeal was taken
from the order of dismissal to the
appellate court.

FOURNIER FIRST TO ARRIVE
AT BERLIN.
BANDS PLAY sousA AIRS
Listens to American Music While
Carried on Shoulders Of
Frantic Admirers.

BerIln, June 18th arrival of the
Paris-Berlin racing automobiles with
Fourier the winner, was generally
recognized as the great sporting
event of the eason AS evidence OF
this, from s in the morning the high
road from Spandau to the west end
was thickly lined with people. From
Berlin thousands of bicycles and au-
tomobiles and very many of the more
fashionable %turnouts toiled up the
hill leading from Charlottenburg to
the west end suburb, about six miles
from Berlin proper. There in Ger
many's largest and most beautiful
park the victorious participants in
the race arrived, one by one, before
a fashionable, sport-loving audience
of some 10000 persons. Stands, deco
rated with flags and bunting, the
French, German and Belgian colors
intwined, We're erected at the goal,
where the judges, officers Of the auto
mobile clubs of France, Germany,
Austria and Belgium and the most
distinguished guests were waiting.
Two fine military bands played in
spring music.
Among the dispatches received
from Hanover by the automobile club
officers was one which announced
the start of only 81 out of the 70
motors which had arrived there yes
terday. The terribly dusty condition
of the roads accounted, to some ex-
tent, for the delay in the arrival of
the racers here.
i Fournier was first seen at a great
distance in a thick cloud Of dust, ap-
preaching the goal like a whirlwind.
The enormous crowd outside and in.
side the park began cheering wildly
and at the same time the bands
struck up the "Marseillaise," while
all the French people present waved
small t~ri-color flags and as Fournier
halted before the goal an immense
"ASUCn VI A0uA Os 0ONOA0ICO WILL A1O-
bons of the German and French col
ors and inscribed in German with the
word Victory" was handed to him.
Then Fourier completed the ciscuit
of the track and left his %autocar, the
bands playing Sousa marches. The
victor was then taken hold of by a
score Of lusty young French and Ger
mar athletes, who lifted him upon
their shoulders and carried him
across the field to the main stand.
From that time on the racers be-
gan coming in fast. The first five
were Frenchmen, but every time the
same deep throated hurrah went up
and each man was carried in triumph
upon the shoulders Of enthusiastic
German and French sportsmen.
All the arrivals complained of the
heat, dust and poor quality of the
roads. The prizes will be distributed
tomorrow.

STATE DEPARTMENT ON SKAG-
WAY FLAG INCIDENT.
ONLY A CUSTOMS EMBLEM
Merely Raised By Officers to 1ndi.
cate Place Where Duties
May Be Paid.

Washington, June 29-The state
department has not received any rep
resentation concerning the flag Incl.
dent at Skagway, where much excite
ment is said to have been caused by
the hauling down OF the British Gus.
toms ensign raised at that point. AS
based on press reports of the affair
the officials do not attach serious I'M
portance to the incident itself, al
though it is recognized that the mat.
ter might assume Importance if rails
ing of the flag was an assertion of
British sovereignty over the locality.
In that event there is no doubt that
the state department would take cog
niZance of the matter, but as it
stands, the flag appears to be that of
a customs officer for the convenience
of designating where customs may be
paid, and not a British emblem indi-
eating any claim of sovereignty.
The modus vivendi made October
Is, 1899. between Secretary Hay and
the British charge here established
a provisional line runnign some dis
tance north of Skagway and over the
summit of Chilkoot pass and of the
White pass, the two main trails in
that locality. Reference to the Off
cial map indicates that Skagway is
clearly within the American line ac-
cording to this modus vivendi, also
all tide water of Lynn canal.
, If a customs officer is at Skagway
he is there as a means of conven-
fence of locating imports before they
reach the wild region through which
the actual provisional line runs.
: Uuder such circumstances it is felt
that some liberation should be shown
on both sides. For the present no
official attention will be given the
incident, as it is not before the de-
partment in any form.
Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury Spaulding today stated that for
some time past Canadian officials
have been allowed to go over the bor-
der in order that they might look af-
ter their customs interest in United
States territory and that our officials
were given a like privilege.
