Unsatisfactory.

London, March 20.-4Mr. Joseph
has just informed the house of com
mons that Gen. Botha has rejected the
peace terms offered him.
Gen. Botha, Mr.. Chamberlain said,
had"conveyed the informationi in alet-
ter to Gen. Kitchener, in, which he an
nounced that he was not disposedNto
recommend the terms of peace Gen.
Kitchener was instructed to offer him
to the earnest consideration of his
government. Gen. Botha added that
his government and it's chief officers
entirely agreed with his view. Mr..
Chamberlain added: @t '5}
: Il propose to lay the papers con-
'nected with the negotiations on the
table tonight" ,sa =
London, March 2O.-The issuance
OF parliamentary papers on the nego-
tiations between Lord Kitchener and
Gen. Botha is delayed. Gen. Botha's
refusal to accept the peace terms Of
fered him is commented upon with
an evident sense of relief. The idea
that Lord Kitchener initiated the ne
gotiations, instead of Gen. Botha, as
had been supposed, is u%npalatable to
the British press. The Daily Mail,
under the editorial caption "Our Re-
jected Suit" asks why the govern
ment instructed Lord Kitchener to
sue for peace after the murder of the
peace ENJOYS, and concludes as fol-
lows: "Let the war be pressed to the
utmost, and let further reinforce
ments be prepared. for they may be
needed; but, above all, let us have no
more Negotiations"

PLAN BIG COMBINE,
Project Contemplating Consolidation
of All Coal Mining Properties
Of Illinois,

Springfield, Ill, March 21.-Illinois
is to be the field of another gigantic
industrial combination. the project
contemplating the consolidation of
the coal mining properties of the
state. The combination, when COM
pleted, will include every coal mine
in the state, and will have a capitaliza-
ton of not less han $4,000, 900. Ar
ticles of incorporation will be taken
out in New Jersey. The combination
will control over 900 mines, the total
output of which exceeded 20, 1000, 900
tons last year. In these mines there
are employed over $1,000 men, exclu-
sive of Office help and managers,
which increases the total number of
employees to approximately 10000.
The effect of the combination upon
the labor question is expected to be
far reaching. This problem has caused
the Illinois operators much trouble of
late years. AS the individual operator
will be eradicated from the field the
board of managers of the combination
will be able to formulate plans with
which to combat the demands that the
unions I now making.
