Commander Snyman Says Boers
 Will Petition Congress.

Washington, Jan. 2-Commandant w. D. Snyman, who was member Of Gen eral DeWet's staff In South Africa up to a year ago, and who for some time has represented the Boer cause In the West, called upon President Roosevelt today. Commandant Snyman Is tall. fine-looking Boer and talks English with a slight broken accent.
 "to thank him for having sent to my wife. who is in South Africa, some money l desired her to have. shall always feel grateful to President Roosevelt. l saw my wife's signature today for the first time in months"
 How did your wife get the money?"
 Through the United States Consul at Cape Town and her answer to my letter was returned through the same channel" "
 Commandant Snyman did not talk with the President about the war in South Africa. He did not consider 1t proper subject to discuss with the President of the United States.
 The Boers." said Commandant Shy man, "can easily see that the President can do nothing to stop the war. even if he were so disposed. But we will appeal to Congress for an expression of opinion We hope that both political parties in this country will unite in such an express sion. We do not want. the matter made party question or embarrass the United States in any way. I believe the English people would welcome an interference sufficient to cause the authorities to drop the war. We are willing to make some concessions

ORIGINATED IN DETROIT.
Troubles. of Everett Moore Syndicate
 Began There.

Detroit Jan. 1.-The Free Press, com menting on the Everett-Moore syndicate trouble tomorrow will say.
 The troubles fo- Everett-MOore origi- mated in Detroit with the purchase Of the suburban lines running out of this city. which were and are today money making properties. When the scheme of buying the Detroit. RoIpeo. Rochester and Lake Orion and it's connecting lines, the Northwestern and the Detroit and Por- tiac lines was proposed, the owners or these roads declined to accept as pay ment a part of a proposed issue of $50,- 000, GOO bonds but demanded better secur- ity. They felt the bonds they would get would not be worth par in event of any thing happening. Then a new plan was broa ched to issue $35. 900, 900 of bonds and the owners of suburban lines were to get their stock back with guarantee from the Detroit United Street Railway the earnings of the latter company. Then came the announcement that EV- erett and Moore had succeeded in fioat- ing the $35. 600 issue of bonds. Later came the announcement that the $35.- OO0, GOO bond scheme had been held in abeyance."
 It was said today by one of the former owners of the Toledo, Shore Line road bought by the Everett-Moore syndicate. that $S50,0O0 became due on the pur- chase of that line today and that about $1 ,0O0, ,000 Is about due on the purchase of the Toledo Traction Companys lines In that city. One of the former stockholders in the Toledo Shore Line said that the original stockholders were not disposed to take advantage of the lapse and inas- much as the Cleveland people had com pleted the road between Detroit and To- ledo and had cars in operation, there was sentiment among the Detroit cred itors to give them a chance to show what they could do.
 There have been no bonds issued by the Peoples Telephone Company, owned Oy Everett and Moore, and now In pro- cess of construction. and it is not known whether such plan is contemplated; This company has completed d costly and extensive system and is in condition to float loan if necessary on the work already finished

She carries among her passengers Senor Matos who is now referred to as General Mates. and several Generals and other important personages of Venezuela who joined General Matos here.

I come to my country's aid quickly and with diligence. I bring with me all the necessary muni- tions of war to strengthen our will and render 1t irresistible. At the same time. I hope to serve as a bond of union be- tween all yenezuelans who desire to save our beloved country from ruin.

Let each one of you fulfin his supreme duty towards his desolate native country. Do this and each one of you will have the great satisfaction of knowing that he has saved Venezuela from matrial injury and his family from the shedding of bit- ter tears.
 Our work Is the work of the nation.
