THE BOER GENERALS
IN DOWNING STREET.
They Confer With Chamberlain,

Wear Frock Coats and
Silk Hats.

LONDON, September 5.-The confer
ence between the Boer generals, Botha,
De Wet. and Delarey. and Colonial Secre-
tary Chamberlain, was had to-day at
Downing street. The generals were es-
corted to the Colonial Office by an official
of that department of the government.
ad drove there in an open carriage.
They received hearty welcome from the
considerable crowds assembled at either
end of the route. The Beers wore i'm
ma culate frock coats and silk hats. and
repeatedly DOTTED the latter in response to
the cheers.
Just prior to the generals departure
from their hotel. Abraham Fischer, the
Boer delegate, had conference with
them.
Lord Kitchener and Lord Onslow, Under
Secretary of State for the Colonies, parti-
cipatedg in the conference, which lasted
two hours.
The faces of the generals as they drove
back to their hotel gave no hint as to
whether they had derived satisfaction or
otherwise from the conference. They
conversedl together volubly, occasionally
raising their hats in response to cheers.
Reporters were refused all information.
The length Of the Colonial Office con-
ference is said not to have been due to
the controversial character of the pro-
ceedings, but as the Beers spoke in Dutch
considerable time was occupied in inter
preting their remarks. Mr.. Chamberlain
has authorized the announcement that
the proceedings will be published later in
a blue book.
