WAR ALMOST ENDED
soERs MAY SOON SURRENDER.
Belief That Peace in South Africa Is
Practically Secured-oniy Danger
Is From a Few Bands of IrreconciI-
ables in the Field.

London, May 24.-The Associated
Press has every reason to believe that
peace in South Africa is practically Sc
cured. How soon it will be announced
depends, apparently, more upon the
convenience of the Boer leaders than
upon the inclination of the British gov
ernment.
The private and official advices re-
received last night in London from
South Africa, all point to the same
conclusion. The delay is technical, and
to end the long war seems TO be the
desire of both British and Boer leaders.
The latter, however, are unable to con-
vince all their followers of the wisdom
of acQuiescing to the terms of peace.
Were the Beers thoroughly disci-
plined force, dependent upon the action
of their general officers, peace would
probably be proclaimed tonight, but
Botha, De Wet and the other generals
seem themselves unable to positively
guarantee the degree to which their
example will be followed.
The delegates at Nerceniging, ac-
cording to information in possession
of the war office, are fairly evenly di-
yided. Consequently extreme precau-
tions are exercised both in London and
Pretoria to prevent any premature ac-
tlOl OT report lllllltn might uuNclSely
influence the burghers.
The most pessimistic forecast heard
tonight only admits that Il few isolat-
ed bands of irreconcilables may be left
in the field.
A member of the House of Com
mans, who is in close touch with the
government, said that he believed ev
erything was settled and that the Brit
ish terms would be found unexpectedly
liberal.
Responding to the toast, 1.-The I'm
perial Forces" the war secretary said:
Il would go beyond my duty should
l enter into details of the communica-
tons which are now passing and which
preface, as we all hope, the surrender
of the Beers"
Much has been due, says the dis
patch, to the patience and tact of Lord
Kitchener and to the full facilities CIV
en- the delegates for discussion.
Interesting references to peace are
contained in letter from Klerksdorp,
southwestern Transvaal, dated April
25th. Ii says:
Seventy thousand to 10000 British
troops are here. waiting for General
De La Rey's answer from the peace
conference and every hour we are eX-
pecting them Che Boers) to march in
and surrender. We have actually sent
out wagonloads of clothes to enable
them to come in tidy, so there is ev-
cry prospect of peace. Lord Kitchener
comes here from Pretoria every other
day and seems to be in particularly
good spirits. He actually smiles and
that's thing he not often does. We
attach great Importance to those smiles
in regard to peace"

MOUNT PELEE STILL ACTIVE.
Island of Martinique May Be Entirely
DESTROYED.

Pointe Pitre, Guadalupe, w. l.,
May 24.-Mont Pelee continues to
menace the existence of the entire is
land of Martinique. Without cessation
it has been in eruption since Monday.
A new crater has opened Oh the north
side of the volcano and from this lava
pours in broad streams down to the
sea. This crater is probably the result
IF the terrific explosion that occurred
early Tuesday morning. when the pent-
up forces seemed to rive the mountain
from base to summit.
Ii is now known that there has been
further loss of life. and what is more
distressing. n large number of persons,
mostly women and children. are i'm
prisoned by lava streams which sur
round them. 1t is impossible for as
sistance to be rendered to them by hu-
man beings. and nothing less than
miracle can save them from the awful
death which confronts them.
These unfortunates are at Grande
Riyiere. They were cut off from es-
cape when Mont Pelee resumed its Ia
Dor Monday. The lava that burst from
the volcano swept away all roads, filed
river channels so that it set bridges
aflcat, carried them upon its surface
until they We're consumed and reached
vases. Il bubbling mass so hot as to
BE almost incandescent.
In this way have the women and chill
dren at Riviere been surrounded. Eff
forts have been made to reach them,
and though they can be seen pleading
for delivernnce. it is impossible to give
them aid. Their supply of food is lin
tied if not wholly exhausted. and
starvation. if not a more terrible fate,
confronts them.
Gradually but steadily the rivers of
lava are spreading and If the eruption
increases n wave of molten material
will sweep away the doomed victims.
Usin Viva has been destroyed. as
has lie Carbct, where twenty soldiers
perished. Many inhabitants of the vii
lage are also believed to have been
lost. but it is impossible to tell the
number
In all Martinique the conditions are
impossible to describe. Although Pc
lee has been less ugly since Tuesday.
1t still presents an appearance that is
far from reassuring. Gunlike reports
are heard at irregular intervals. and
after each report the mountain top
trembles. while some cleft in fhe sum-
nit pours out n fresh stream of lava.
Believing that the island is doomed
the population continues in state of
panic. Just as fast as possible they
Fre leaving on ships. They do not care
where they go. All that they ask is
means of leaving the place they have
come to regard rs an inferno.
Six hundred refugees have arrived
here on the Salvador. Two hundred
are here are in Il sad state of poverty.

Great Labor Strike in Denver.

Denver. May 26-To-day all building
by union workmen stops in Denver, and
the stoppage will continue. from pres
ent Indications, until either the owners
of the planning mills agree to grant an
eight-hour day. or the members of the
building trades are compelled by lack
of money to go back to work. There
will be no demonstration whatever at
the Inauguration of the big strike. the
union leaders say, but the carpenters,
the stone masons. the brick layers, the
sheet metal workers. and the members
of the other trades involved in building
will simply not appear for work.
There is considerable doubt, however,
that the carpenters will continue in the
strike, owing to previous agreements
with employing contractors.
