TEN rSIN, March 20.-Gen Lorne-
Campbell, he English commander, and
General Wogack, commanding the Rus
slams, met Count Won Waldersee upon
his arrival here. Learning that both
had received Instructions from their
governments, Count Won Waldersee
said that it was useless for him to give
even an opinion regarding the mat
ters at issue.
1T is the general feeling in Tien Tsin
that the trouble is not likely to reach
point where blood will be shed. Both
detachments on guard have orders to dc
nothing aggressive unless forced TO do
80 bv the other Except the army and
camp followers. the only Russians now
residing here are the members Of the
consular stan. two clerks and two
Jews. who are running stores and who
left Russia in order to save their lives.
These are now being offered induce
ments to move to the Russian conces-
sion.
The French concession is quiet. The
French gendarmes are on duty at the
British concession to prevent the sol
disrs from trespassing and an Austria
Ian naval brigade is preventing the
Sikhs from invading the French con-
cession.
General Lorne-Campbell, upon hear
ing of the death of ex-President Har-
rison, ordered all the British flags to
be. flown at half mast.

French soldiers from entering.

mander here and Is holding his ground

which Central Wogack declined to en-
tertaln was that the disputed territory

Russians and British simultaneously

tion OF the question involved.
British officers maintain that II. as
rumored, Russian troops are being hur-
ried to Tien Tsin from Port Arthur,
the British government viii regard their
arrival az hostile movement on the
part Of Russia.
General Wogack has made the follow
ing statement Of the Russian position
for the Herald:
The question over which we unhap-
PLY are at odds is not whether the dis
puted ground belongs 10 US or to the
Chinese government or to the railway
company but whether the English will
make good their trespass.
AT the time the British attempted
to take possession the ground was pro-
tected by British flags and clearly
delimltated boundary OF stone These
flags were overturned and thrown away
bv a working party Of Bengal pioneers
and coolies who went on with their
work until driven of by our guards.
Before we can discuss the question
Of ownership the British. who are still
to some extent on our ground. must

drawn 1 am cure the Russian imperial
government viii ignore all previous re-
grettlble violence and listen in a most
friendly spirit to whatever the British
government may have TO say regarding
the definite possession Of the disputed
territory. No sane person can for an
instant doubt that had the English re-
uuired permission to build switch or
sidetrack on our ground II would have
been Immediately granted.
Unfortunately, however, they sought
their ends by forcible means. The
British troops must be withdrawn from
Russian territory. There can be no
other settlement"

The Beers. he said, can get plenty

an alternative for Sir Alfred Miner

Erasmus suggests that England should

when the Beers remaining must be eith-
er caught and extermjnated or given
independence. There was "a time after
Pretoria was taken when many Beers
deserted or surrendered In the belief
that they would find their houses and
families az they left them, as they were
allowed 10 go free. promising not to
fight again. The end Of the war was
then possible. Ny people were ready
TO give IN. But when the Beers re-
turned 10 their homesteads and found
their farms burned and their families
gone they knew not where. they were
ruined men. From that day on Il
should be well understood the war be-
came one Of revenge and no longer one
Of patriotism. Picture to yourself the
situation 1t Is perfectly simple to un-
dcrsIand the bitterness u the Beers.
The only terms satisfactory would
be Restocking the farms and making
good that which has been destroyed.
Otherwise why should not our men CON
tlnue 10 fight. They have lost every
thing and therefore have nothing to
lose and everything to gain.
Mr.. Kruger Is still absolutely presl-
dent OF the Transvaal republic. Peo-
pie say he ran away. That is untrue.
He was forced to leave by the eXecu-
tive. 1t took 5000 men 10 guard him.
We needed those men elsewhere. More

be more useful over here.
1T Is perfect nonsense to say he is

the purchase and sale Of lands. just

money has been lntrusted to him for

"Mr. Kruger may have lost some

under his instructions he could not

NEW YORK. March 2O.--A dispatch
from London 10 the Herald gives an In
tervlew with d. Erasmus. son of GEN
eral Erasmus, Of Pretoria on the prob
able consequences Of General Botha's
refusal to accept the terms Of peace. He
said;
THE English public for some unknown
reason has looked upon the war all
along as mere chlld's play, rotwith-
standing the lessons II received in the
comm snca al0Crt OF the war. Four hun
dred Beers are quite sufficient To har-
ass the entire army for an indefinite
period in the district north OF Pretoria.
Regular cavalry cannot operate
there. 1t is deep sand which gives the
poorest foothold. Owing to the fever,
the British can operate but six months
in the year. The Beers from childhood
have accustomed themselves to this ell
mate and can stop there without much
harm.
In foreign countries people who are
trying to make mischief out of the
English reverses read In them dis
grace to the British army. But I can
assure those pretended friends OF my
people that II they had to do what the
