the proposition came after a'n all days

Upon arriving at Southampton the

Their Reception In London Rivals
That Of Kitchener and Roberts.

Southampton, Aug. 18.-Generals
Botha, Dewet and Delarey arrived here
during the morning and met with
great reception, both from government
officials and the public.
The Boer generals looked remarka-
bly, well and evidently were much
pleased at the heartiness of the well
come accorded them. Soon after land
ing they boarded the steamship Nj
geria, where Joseph Chamberlain, the
colonial secretary; Earl Roberts and
General Lord Kitchener greeted them.
They were also introduced to Mrs.
Chamberlain and Lady Roberts with
whom they chatted for some time.
Official arrangements had been made
to permit the generals to witness the
naval review, but after a conference
with Abraham Fischer, the former
Boer delegate, who came from The
Hague, it was announced that they in
tended to proceed direct to London in
order to reach Holland as speedily as
possible. The generals go to Holland
to pay their last respects to the mem
DRY of General Lucas Meyer, who died
OF heart disease on Aug. 8.
General DeWet, in conversation here,
confirmed the statement that he and
his companions will visit the United
States before returning to South

London, Aug. 18.-The Boer gener.
ais reached London in the course Of
the afternoon and were loudly cheered
in the streets. Asked why they had
declined the governments invitation
to witness the naval review the Wis
itors remarked that they were too
tired after the long war and needed a
rest.'
1t is still uncertain whether or not
they will return to Cowes and see the
king.
The scene at the railroad station on
the arrival of the Beers was remarka-
bic. An enormous crowd of people
gave them welcome as hearty as
given to Lord Roberts and Lord Kitch-
ener when they arrived here from
South Africa. Shouts OF Good old

and Brave soldiers ALL" were fire.
quently heard amidst salvos of cheers.
General Dewet was fairly cornered by
mob and had to be rescued by the
police who, by sheer force, cleared a
line of retreat for him.

FORT DODGE RAISES PROTEST
VIII Dispute Right of Removal of
Railroad shops to
Clarion.

FORT DODGE, Ia. April 24-(Special.)-
The city Of Fort Dodge has notified the Of
hcials Of the Mason City & Fort Dodge
Railroad company Of its intention to dis
pute the removal OF the machine shops for
the new Oman and Sioux City extensions
from Fort Dodge to Clarion. The general
sentiment here is that the matter will be
taken into the courts II 1t is found neces-
sary.
The resistance of the city OF Fort Dodge
is based Upon an ordinance passed In 1856
granting TO the Mason City & Fort Dodge
Railroad company, then just entering Fort
Dodge, certain valuable real estate upon
the agreement by the railroad company to
establish and maintain thereon its pas
senger and freight depots, Its engine house
and its main and principal machine shops
within the state OF Iowa.
The same ordinance specifies that any
other shops for repairs shall not be located
by the railroad company, its assigns or
lessees. within sixty-fye miles OF Fort
Dodge. As Clarion Is only thirty miles
away. 1t is claimed that the ordinance is
violated in still another respect.

BASES OF CANAL AGREEMENT
Colombia Grants United states Ex-
elusive Right to Build, Operate
and Protect.

WASHINGTON, April 24.-There have
been some recent communications between
Secretary Hay and the Colombian minister,
Mr.. Concha, containing the bases of an
agreement between the two countries In
the event congress should authorize the
construction of a canal across the Isthmus
Of Panama. The first of these communi-
cations was from the Colombian minister
and contained propositions OF his govern
ment as to the terms, concessions, grants
and compensation, on which Colombia
would consent to the construction OF the
canal, In reply to which Secretary Hay
transmitted a memorandum OF a hypothet-
ical and conditional nature as to what this
government would do in the event that con-
gress authorized the president to act. The
secretary's memorandum was sent to Senior
Concha today.
The purpose. OF the communications was
to remove room for doubt as to what each
government would do II a canal was d.
rected to be built.
The following authorized statement con-
corning the propositions of Colcmbia as
they stand amended was made public today;
The United States is granted exclusive
canal, as We'll as ali railroads, telegraph
and telephone lines and auxiliary works
within the zone. The zone is six miles wide

under the joint judicial control of the
United States and Colombia.
Colombia gives unqualified consent to the
sale and transfer OF the Panama Canal
company's rights to the United states and
exempts the latter country from all taxes,
import duties, etc. She grants to the United
States a lease of the canal strip. in, per
petuity. For convenience, It is divided into
periods Of 100 years, renewable at the
option of the United STATES. Colombia
asks for a lump payment of 100000 after
the exchange OF ratihcations, to be con-
sidered as ION account"
For fourteen years Colombia valves all
compensation for the canal rights. This
period will more than cover the time Of
construction.
At the end OF the fourteen-year period
the annual compensation which the United
States shall pay thereafter shall be de-
termined by a board Of Ave commissioners.
The fact that Colombia has asked no COM
pensation for the first fourteen years and
that the United States has advanced 5000
