Feeling In Holland.

The Hague, June 3.-The news of
the conclusion of peace in South
Africa was received here with very
mixed feeling. While there is general
satisfaction that the war is ended,
unvarying regret is expressed at the
loss of Boer independence.
The Boer delegates here are in a
particularly trying position. 1t has
been learned upon good authority
that the British government at the
last moment refused to allow the
Beers in South Africa to communi-
cate with their leaders in Europe;
thus the delegates on the comment
were entirely shut out of the negot-
iations and were ignorant even of the
terms of surrender, except as they
learned of them through the news.
papers.
A Dutch official referring to the
news from South Africa said: "The
delegates made a great mistake in not
complying with the ardent wish of
the Dutch government at the time of
the overtures made by DR.. Kuyper the
premier which was that they apply for
safe conducts to South Africa"

NEGOTIATIONS FOR PEACE.
Started March 12-Various Offers Re.
fused by the British.

London, June S.-A parliamentary
paper gives the correspondence pre-
ceding the peace agreement. From
this it appears that General Schalk-
Burger (acting president of the Trans
vaaD informed Lord Kitchener March
12, that he was prepared to make peace
proposals. A month later the Boer
delegates submitted propositions.
On April 10, the war secretary, Mr..
Brodrick, refused to entertain any
propositions based on the independ-
ence of the republics. Subsequently
President Steyn of the Orange Free
State and Generals Schalk-Burger and
Botha declared that the surrender Of
independence must be submitted to the
burghers in the field.
The British government expressed
surprise at this attitude bat an
nounced its willingness to accept the
Beers surrender on the same terms
that Lord Kitchener had previosuly
offered General Botha, and to give ia
cilities for a consultation of the Boer
commands.
On May II General Schalk-Burger
and Mr.. Steyn informed Lord Kitche-
ner that the burghcrs assembled at
Vereeniging had empowered a com
mission to negotiate peace terms sub
iect to ratification at Nereeniging.
Lord Miner; Lord Kitchener and tho
Bocr commission met May 10. The
latter offered to surrender the indie
pendence of the republics, as regards
foreign relations; to surrender part
of their territory and retain self-goy-

from a fractured skull. The coron-
