HousE-The house devoted another day to
debate on the bill to classify the rural free de-
livery service and to place the carriers under
contract.
SESATE-A notable speech was made In the
senate by Mr.. Hanna OF Ohio on the pending
shipping bill which he discussed from the
point of an American business man. His argu-
ments were carefully prepared, he was always
forceful and earnest and at times he became
eloquent. He commanded the undivided at
tention of the senate and of the galleries, and
when he closed he received congratulations of
many OF his colleagues.
Early In the session, Mr.. Frye, In charge Of
the pending shipping bill, obtained an agree
ment that the senate should vote on the mea-
sure and all pending amendments at p. m,
Monday, March IL, that time being entirely
satisfactory TO those opposed TO the bill.
Before consideration of the shipping bill was
resumed, an extended debate occurred on the
measure providing for the protection OF the
president of the United States. No action on
the bill was taken.

WILL NOT INTERFERE
IN BOER-BRlTlSH STRUGGLE
President Declares United States Can No:
and Will Not Interfere in the South
African War.

Messrs. Wolmarens and Vessels, the
Boer representatives who came to the
United States from Europe for the pur-
pose of comforting with the secretary
of state, have achieved their purpose.
They were received by Mr.. Hay We'd
nesday. 1t was distinctly understood
that the Beers were to be received as
private citizens and not in an official
capacity. Secretary Hay talked to
them freely with this understanding.
The principal object of the delegates
was to induce the United States gov
ernment to do something to termi n
ate the bloody struggle in South
Africa.
They were not very specific as to
what they wanted. and apparently
would be satisfied with anything from
a direct to a simple tender of the good
offices on the part of the United States.
The secretary of state heard them
attentively and promised to consider
their representations and to do what
ever he could to ameliorate the coudi-
tions in South Africa. But he pointed
out that the president was the prime
authority in such matters, and he re-
commended that the Beers see Mr..
Roosevelt and ascertain his views.
This they agreed to do, and later in
the day they were received at the
White House in the same unofficial
capacity. They were accompanied by
DIR. Frederick Mueller of the Orange
Free State and were received by Presi'
dent Roosevelt in the library, and re-
mained with him a bout fifteen minutes
They called as citizens and not in their
official capacity as Boer representa-
tives. Mr.. Roosevelt listened atten.
lively to what they had to say and
then informed them that this govern.
ment cannot and will not interfere in
the struggle.

that you are the mother of five sons

of the Republic they died to save. l
