EFFORT TO MAKE HIM THE PRESIDENT

Washington, Nov. 13.-The Colombian Gov
eminent is making earnest effort and IN an
interesting way to solve the troubles which
have arisen in its executive branch The first
official act of a Colombian Congress is to
appoint ''designado' an official who succeeds
the Presidency upon the retirement Of both
the President and e-Presdent. General
Rafael Reyes, Colombian Minister to France.
now in attendance upon the Congress of Ameri-
can Republics at the City of Mexico one OF
the Colombian delegates, holds that position
Information has reached the Colombian Lega-
ton in this city to the effect that commission
composed of three Colombian officials is about
to leave Bogota for Mexico City, to endeavor to
induce General Reyes to accompany it back to
the Colombian capital and take up the reins OF
government.
Notwithstanding the fact that the former
President Sanclernente. has been out of office
for some time it is true that he is still the con-
stitutional President of Colombia, and he has
yet to tender his resignation from that Office
However, Sancemente, it is stated has salo
he will tender his resignation, provided Presi-
dent Marroquin. who is constitutionally only the
ice-President will do likewise A great many
of the present complications in Colombia have
arisen out of this situation, and the strong fac
tions back OF the commission see in General
Reyes official with clean title to the Presi-
dency. if. as they confidently believe President

has been broached to him already in an in
formal way but no definite idea of his views has
been obtainabe.

SOUTH AFRICAN
WAR NOT OVER.
Gen. Kitchener's Telegram Inteusi
des EngIand's Anxiety.
BLAMING THE GOVERNMENT
II il Charged with Giving False I'M.
pressions as 60 Boer Resources
Being Exhausted,

New York, Sept 2i.-Commenting up
on the South African situation, the Lon
don correspondent Of the Tribune says:
Anxiety with regard to the situation
In South Africa Is intensified by Lord
Kitchener's latest message announcing
the loss Of two more British guns. The
war Is not over and even some OF the
unionist papers are blaming the gov
ernment for the manner In which the
country has been deluded into the be-
lief that the Beers We're at the end Of
their resources. Gen. Botha has for a
week past been mediatlng a raid into
Natal, and no doubt he is acting in CO.
operation with other Boer leaders.
Whether he has enough material at his
command 10 enter upon a campaign on
a large scale In northern Natal Is open
to doubt but at the same time Lord
Kitchener may not have enough men
successfully TO oppose the Boer COM
mandant general, unless he c0nsidera-
bly, reduces the number now employed
In chasing COMMANDERS throughout the
length and breadth Of Cape Colony.
Natal Is almost the only position in
South Africa which Is beginning to re-
cover from the misfortunes of the last
two years, and 1t offers tempting prey
to the raiders. A fresh invasion of the
colony would be regarded as a real cal
amity.
The financial outlook Is also far from
satisfactory. On the stock exchange
rumors are current that the Chancellor
Of the exchequer viii ultimately have 10
lloat another large issue OF consnls-

For Violating Immigration Laws.

Boston, Sept. 2l--lndicated on the
charge Of allowing 10 Portuguese
lads from Fayal, c. V. l.. to
enter this country In violation Of the
immigration laws. Antonio II. Rodgers.
New Bedford shipping agent was
taken from his office by United States
officers and brought 10 this city for a
hearing He was released on So 600
bail and his trial will be arranged later.
For months the officials have been
working upon this case which Is con-
sidcred one OF great Importance. Hay-
ing apprehended the defendant some
time ago United States Deputy Waters
had date set for the hearing The
government officials allege that i'm
portant witnesses were spirited away,
causing the prosecution to fan through,
ana IN consequence Rodgers was ac-
quilted. Nothing daunted, the immi-
grafton officials continued their inyeS-
u2atlons, witnesses were again pro-
cured with much difficulty and through
their evidence another Indictment was
found against Rodgers resulting In
his arrest. When taken into custody
he manifested great surprise. The noI-
tuguese lads have been leaving cape
Verde islands TO escape military duty.
TIL schooner for which Rodgers is
agent, is the Hattie and Lottie and il
is alleged that in May last 10 young
men were brought here on that vessel
and permitted to land The trip Is
believed TO have Melted nearly $4,000.
According TO the government officers
the schooner reached New Bedford at
night and under cover of darkness the
boys were landed in boats
