RESPONSE TO CIRCULAR NOTE.
Peru Will Not Abdicate From Rights
 to Which She Is Entitled

Washington March 9.-The state de- partment and the various foreign rep resentatives in Washington have re- ceived copies of recent official state ment of the minister of foreign af- fairs of Peru, Senor de Osma, mak- ing q vigorous response to a circular note of the Chilean foreign office touching the strained relations be- tween Chile, Peru ,nd Bolivia. grov- ing out of the war in which these three countries participated. The deter mined attitude of Peru is shown by the minister's estatement that the country will not abdicate one single iota from the rights and expectancy to which she is entitled under the treaties made with Chile
 The minister says Peru desires to convey to other 5couptries the conyic- ton that she is exempt from hatred and seeks only her rights in this np- gotiatioD, and he appeals to the "in- conteStiblc testimony of facts" which he sets forth at much length. as show ing the justice of Perus' position. He says that repeated attempts were made for years by the Peruvian for eign office to reach an l;n,ieyStanding With Chile. for a vote as to the flu turc of contested territory. and in or der to remove every possibility for any new excuse on tho part of Chile special funds were provided to make payment of an indemnity that might be awarded. '
 Minister De OSma says that despite these prolonged efforts it has been i'm possible to reach any final agreement under which the controversy would be submitted to arbitration or would be otherwise settled Tn conclusion, the minister says:
 Tn the presence of the facts and nrecedents which I have narrated 1t would be difficult to explain in what manner the government of Chile could without loss of it's International pres tige. maintain as at present the con troversy respecting Tacna and Arica and the more general one of the Ia cific'

 London. March 9-:'The negotiations between Lord itchener and General Botha are in abeyance,' says the Pre- Ioria correspondent of the Times, wiring Wednesday, pending an answer from the British government
 The Daily Chronicle. referring to the :iritice at Pretoria. says: we learn that the untiring agent in bringing about the negotiations was Mrs Botha. who was deeply affected by the hope less plight of the BoerS and did her utmost to induce her husband to ac- cept the British terms. The meeting ot February 21 was limited to General BoIha'S request to know Lord hlTcll- t.ner replied that q general amnesty would be granted to all who surrender ed as well as To all prisoners except those Cape Dutch who. being British subjects, had actively fomented Roer resistance General De Wet and Nr Steyn Were. however. expressly eX- cluded from the amnesty
 Lord Kitchener further promises that. if peace were concluded. the gov ernInent would assist i'll rebuilding the farmhOuSeS and other buildings de- SIroyed under military eNigencleS. would reinStaie the lawful owners and would help them stock their farms. Those guilty of acts of treachery would be excluded from these benefits. Gen eral BOtha appeared satisfied with the conditions and the armiStice being ar ranged he proceeded to consult his officers, vast majority of whom ac- cepted the terms. De Wet and Steyn both remained irrecOncilable. Hey declined any terms. De Wet adding that on his part the war had become one Of revenge and he intended to do all the mischief he conld.
 Tt is probable that the original armistice of d week has been extended. It is believed that the remainder of General BOlha's officers have now been won over, and that he is likely to make formal submission to Lord Kitchener March II. when his force will surrender to General French. Ac cording to our information Lord Eitcheners dispositions made the speedy capture of General BothaS forces quite certain.
