erals Left Pretoria to Confer With
Burghers-Balfour Hoped to Make
Statement Monday.

London, May 30.-A dispatch from
Pretoria, published this mornir in
The Times, says that unless the
Beers suddenly veer around there is
good reason to hope they will soon
give notification of their acceptance
Of the British terms.
Mr.. Balfeur stated in the house of
commons yesterday that he hoped to
be able Monday next to announce the
result Of the peace negotiations in
South Africa.
General Kitchener's censor allowed
messages to leave Pretoria yesterday
morning announcing that Steyn,
Schalkberger, Delarey, De Wet and
other of the Boer assembly at We.
reeniging, had left Pretoria for We
reeniging to further: confer with the
burghers there. Their departure. be-
fore the last cabinet meeting was
held is regarded as showing that yes
tOrday's meeting of the British min
listers confirmed their previous state
ment Of terms, and that the Beers
were given until Saturday to either
accept or reject them. Last nights
news means that the question OF
peace or war is again transferred tC
the commanders, who will salone de
eide. A three days limit has beer
placed on their councils.

ExTOLLERS or ACUINALDO
Taken to Task by Senator Morgan.
Defends Philippine PoIicy-Clay
Speaks In Opposition.

Washington, May 30.-Interest in
the Philippine debate is increasing
as the discussion draws to a close.
Yesterday the senate galleries were
thronged with auditors, and the at
tendance on the floor was larger than
1t has been for some time, Including
many members of the house CT rep
resentatives. Mr.. Lodge, CT Massa-
chusetts, in charge of the bill, offered
on behalf of the committee several
amendments to the measure, the most
important being one extending to the
Philippines the provision of the bill
of rights of the constitution of the
United States, excepting only the
right to bear arms and the right to a
trial by jury. All of the amendments
were agreed to.
Mr. Morgan, Of Alabama, delivered
an extended speech, in which he sup
ported, in the main, the bill as pre-
scented by the committee. He said it
looked toward peace and toward a
just and peaceful government in the
islands. Some changes were neces-
sary, in mis- opinion, but these he
thought would be made. He declared
that there never had been a pretense
Of organized Filipino government in
the islands, and said had Dewey rec
ognized Aguinaldos claims he would
have given aid and comfort to the de-
clared enemies Of the United States.
He took sharply to task those in and
out Of the senate who had extoIled
Aguinaldo, and asserted that the
Fiipinos were not fighting for liberty,
7 Hong Kong junta.
Mr.. Clay, of Georgia, opposed the
pending measure in a carefully pre-
pared speech. He regarded the action
of the United States since the ratif-
cation of the treaty of Paris as a
great mistake, and urged that this
government ought to declare it's pur-
poses in the Philippines. Such &C.
ton, in his opinion, would put an end
to the trouble in the islands. He
maintained that the bill ought not to
be passed, as it would confer greater
power on the Philippine commission
than ever had been possessed by king
or potentate.
Late in the afternoon Mr.. Spooner,
Of Wisconsin, began a speech in sup
port of the bill and the administra-
tons policy in the Philippines, which
is to conclude. general debate on the
measure by the Republican side.

EDITOR REPORTER: you kindly
send my REPORTER to Marvel, Okla,
instead of Hearton. We arrived here
the 10th of March and found beautiful
country; everything booming. Crops
in Old Oklahoma are fine; corn all
planted and lots of it plowed. Fine
prospect fer fruit of all kinds. Grass is
half knee high and it looks fine. have
got my sod corn in and am going to
plant cotton this week. There is lots of
cotton being planted. On the 18th of
March filed on quarter section of
land in the Caddo country but am in
Canadian county, twenty-three miles
from Ell Reno and fourteen miles from
Bridgeport. Have never been to Bridge
port yet. Ell Reno has several factories,
two big mills, cotton compress, ice
plant, three banks and twenty-eight
saloons. | live three miles south of the
South Canadian river and think have
got as fine an upland farm as there is
around here. Claims are changing
hands at from 5000 to So 900. There are
lots Of contests. If the people are not
on their places when the six months is
up there is generally contest and if he
is a married man he looses it, but if he
is single he stands better chance to
hold it. 1t is funny to see how people
live here. Some live in dugouts, some
in half dugouts and some in houses.
They are rice people. They don't seem
like Iowa people, although there are lots
of Iowa people here.
Yours truly,
