KRUGER.
Ex-PIesidant Of the TransvaaI
Accused Of Having Money by
the British Government.

Berlin. Dec. 1.-The British government
is telegraphing to all the ports OF Ger
many making inquiries concerning a
number of Boer gold bars worth s6500oO.
which il is supposed have been brought
10 this country from South Africa within
the past fortnight
The bars are destined for former Pres-
dent Kruger and DR.. Leyds and II Is pre-
sumed. had been concealed In the north
ern Transvaal.
Great Britain will endeavor legally to
attach the gold. IL IL can be located, on
the ground that she is entitled to all the
assets OF the Transvaal because she has
assumed responsibility for the debts OF
that country. including the bonds issued
prior to the war.
General Botha's reply TO Colonial Secre-
tary Chamberlain. that the late Boer
government had no assets was strictly
true as far as he knew, but since re-
ceiving Mr.. Chamberlain's letter, Gen.
eral Botha learned. according to seeming
ly trustworthy information here that
Mr.. Kruger and DR. Leyds have In their
possession 81. 10000
General Botha requested them TO turn
over this gold for the benefit of the Boer
people. but DR. Leyds refused. averring
that the money was to be used In uphold
ing the Boer nationality In the future.
General Botha has notified DR. Leyds
that unless the gold is given up. legal
proceedings will be brought against him.

property are piled in the stores, banks
