TO TAX PROFITS OF MINES.
How Great Britain May Recoup Her

How Great Britain May RecOup Her
self for Cost of War.
London, June 13-Sir David Barbour,
whom the Chancellor Of the Exchequer,
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, sent to South
Africa to investigate the sources of rev.
enue of the Transvaal and Orange River
Colony with a view of estimating how
much they should contribute towards the
cost of the war, reports in favor of 10
per cent. tax on the profits of mines,
yielding on the basis of the profits of 1885,
f45O00O yearly. After paying this, Sir
David Barbour considers the mines
will be better off than before as they will
save 10000 per year on dynamite, owing
to the abolition of the monopoly in that
commodity. The Orange River colony will
he unable for some years to meet the
ordinary cost of administration, and pay
it's share of the cost of the constabulary.
"It cannot, therefore" says Sir David
Barbour, 80 far as can be foreseen at
present, pay anything toward the cost of
the war
The Transvaal, he thinks, can, two
years after the conclusion of peace begin
out of its ordinary revenue to pay part
of the cost of the war. He is unable now
to estimate how much. He proposes also
to apply all revenues from the sale of
the lands or mining rights to the war

"Some" Troops in Cuba After Cow
ernment Is Organized.
Washington. June 13.-It is expected at
the War Department that Cuban inde-
pendence will be an accomplished fact by
next Christmas. The next thing in order
after the Plat amendment is adopted by
body to take up and pass an electoral
bill which will provide for the election
of the officers necessary to set up an in
dependent government in Cuba. Ii is
said here that such bill is already franz
ed and is ready for submission to the con-
vention at any moment. There is good
reason for the belief that Secretary Root
has seen this bill and approved of its pro-
visions, If, indeed, he has not actually
had to do with its construction. 1t is
thought the the convention can dispose
of this measure in a week or two and
that will complete the labors of that
body.
A period of ninety days, 1t is said here.
must be allowed for publication of the
electoral adt before the necessary cleo
tions can be held.
1t may be necessary, and probably will
be, to maintain some United States troops
in Cuba after the new officials are in
augurated, and until the Cubans have
had time to set up a Cuban military force
or gendarmes, but the length of this stay
probably will depend upon the wishes of
the Cubans themselves.

CHINA MATTERS DISCUSSED.
Our Proposition to Refer to The
Hague Explained to Diplomats.

Washington, June 13.-The representa-
tives of the European Powers interested
in China were at the State Department
to-day, this being diplomatic day and
the general status of the negotiations at
Pekin were gone over very fully with
Acting Secretary HIN. The chief interest
conferred in the pending American propo-
sidion that THE indemnity complication be
referred to The Hague tribunal None of
the governments yet has definitely an
nounced it's position as to this plan. But
the prevailing sentiment among the call
ers seemed TO be that reference to The
Hague would entail more delay. One of
them remarked that II would mean at
least another six months of negotiation.
If the Russian government concurs in
the suggestion, as has been reported un-
officially. 1t Will materially add to the
chances that this reference to The Hague
WIN be- made On the other hand, at least,
one of the Continental Powers is thought
to be quite strongly opposed to removing
THE negotiations from Pekin.
