1o,225 BoERs SURRENDER.
Burghers Are Handing In Only SmaI
 Portions of Ammunition.

Pretoria, Wednesday, June 1.-In all Many are youngsters of eleven years of age and upward. The majority of them are under thirty, though some of the burghers who have surrendered are sep tuagenarians. Reports from all districts say that the burghers are increasingly friendly. The only bitterness observable among the leading Boers here Is against France and Germany. They declare the war was protracted unnecessarily owing to hopes held out by the French and Ger man press. Some of the Boers are so in- censed that they have expressed the hope that some day they will be permitted to fight on the side of the British against one of these powers.
 The anticipated friction between the rades of the national scouts has not ma- terialized to any extent.
 The Boers admit they received ammuni- ton through Portuguese territory.
 General DeWet says the youngsters were his best fighters, and frequentlv held positions after the older burghers had cleared out
 The Boers of the Orange River Colonev are handing in only small percentage of their ammunition. They explain that they used most of 1t in hunting game since the peace agreement was signed.
 Addressing the surrendered Boers at hroonstadt, Orange River Colony Gen. eral Elliott said the only wish of King Edward, his government, and the Brit lsh people was to help the burghers and get them back to their farms so soon as possible The King, the general added. had teiegraphed congra tulating tho Boers on the good stand they had made. This announcement was greeted with mstv eneers TOT the King and Lord Kitchener.

NOTES AND PERSONALS,

There is very little to chronicle of in- terest to the social world. The excess lively warm weather has made the sea- son in town very quiet. As yet there have not been many departures. With Europe there Is little indication that the summer exodus has began. July and August will bring many departures. however, for by that time the city holds few attractions, weighed against those offered by enterprising managers of seashore hotels and those in the beau tiful mountain scenery.
 MT. Richard Johnston Is i'll at his resi- dence on Highland, avenue
 Miss Ava Bradford is in Talladega and will go later to Chandler Springs, where she will spend the summer with her aunt, Mrs. Joseph Hardie.
 Mrs. William P. Redd will spend a part of the summer at Warm Springs, Ga.
 Mrs. Oscar Smith will return from An niston tomorrow.
 MT. ana Mrs. James Garland Johns have returned from Asheville, N. C., where they have been staying at the Battery Park hotel since their mar riage the latter part of May.

NO POLICY OF COERCION.
Roosevelt Says Goodwill and ConciIia
 ton Exists In Islands.

Boston, June 12-President Roosevelt says there Is now almost no policy of coercion in the Philippines in a letter to the American Unitarian Association. The Presidents communication was in an swer to the secretarys letter transmit ting to the President the resolutions adopted at the annual meeting of the American Unitarian Association con- corning the situation in the Philippines. It is as follows:
 My Dear Sir-I beg to thank you for your very kind letter of the S1st ultimo, enclosing the memorial of the American Unitarian Association presented at its annual meeting May p, 1902 I am happy to be able to say that the bill which has just passed the Senate will, If enacted into law, enable us to proceed even more rapidly and efficiently than here tofore along the lines of securing peace prosperity and personal liberty to the inhabitants of the Philippine islands.
 There is now almost no policy of CO., ercion' in the islands, because the insur- rection has been entirely overcome save In a very few places, and with peace the policy of conciliation and good will will obtain throughout the Philippines. There has never been any coercion save such as was absolutely inevitable in put ting a stop to an armed attack upon the sovereignty of the United States. which In It's last phases became mere brigand- age.
 With great regard, and assuring you of my hearty sympathy with the pur- pose set forth in your letter and actuat- ing the members of the American Uni tarian Association as regards peace and justice in the Philippines, I am, very truly yours,
 THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

Our Em be zzlers

Governor Dole is diligent in getting
after the dishonest officials of Hawaii,
having called an extra session of the
Legislature to deal with their cases. 1t
is pity that the laws were not such as
tc admit of the summary deposition OF
those officials as soon as their dishon-
esty became known. II is OF the utmost
Importance that American sovereignty
i'll the Hawaiian Islands shall not be
tainted with corruption from the first,
and the course of Governor Dole is in
the highest degree commendable in his
determination that the unfaithful Off
Gals shall be ousted from their posi-
tiarc-Salt Lake Tribune.

We're partners in large hardware
establishment doing a prosperous bus
mess. Stanford was pretty we'll off
from the proceeds of his mining VEN
lures and was then also engaged in the
oil business with his brother.
After judah was out of the way
they consummated the scheme, and
then Stanford Joined with them. He
stood out as long as he had Judah with
him. Stanford vas like man playing
in a game of euchre. If honesty was
trumps and he had a good hand he
would play it, but without a good
partner he did not feel strong enough
to play it alone.
That is about the way the jobbery
started. Then the Big Four" carried
on the whole scheme without him
drance. No more outsiders got con-
tracts for the construction of the road,
and the S30,000,000 for which the
United States had issued bonds, passed
into their hands. They pocketed the
biggest kinds of contracts. They also
required subsidies from every town
that wanted the railroad and, as every
body well knows, Stockton was cut out
because it would not give subsidy,
and Lathrop was made base. In 4
very few years all the members of that
contracting firm were living in the
handsomest residences, although before
they lived in ordinary dwellings, They
became millionaires at once. They
were making such big profits in the
contracting company that certain
stockholders of the Central Pacific got
onto their scheme and went after them
for their shares in the profits of the
contracting firm, asserting that it was
part of the railroad organization.
Sam Brannon had a number OF
shares of stock, and began to make
things interesting until they paid him
handsome sum for his shares to pre-
vent the matter from getting into the
courts. 1t was seldom that anyone
could get a lawyer to institute a suit
against the Big Four as the latter
were paid retainer fee to prevent
