KRUGER'S MEMOIRS.
The Jameson Raid-Threat TO Kan Jo-
honBesburg inhabitants.

London, Nov. 15.-The Times pub
fishes this morning another page of ex-
tracts from the memoirs of Mr.. Kruger
dealing with the history of the Trans
vaaI and his own successive terms of
Office as president. Mr.. Kruger enters
at great length into the circumstances
of the Jameson raid and declares that
it was only his influence and his
threat to resign the presidency which
prevented the burghers from attacking
and shooting down all the inhabitants
of johannesburg. The former presi-
dent explains that particulars of the
course of the war with the British and
its yicissitudes would not come within
the scope of the memoirs, as he took
no personal part in the fighting. He
describes the harrassing life he led at
this period, directing and advising the
Boer leaders. His sleep was broken
many times every night to attend to
dispatches, etc. He gives minute de-
tails of the removal of the Boer gov
ernment from Pretoria and says it was
a sad blow to him, especially as his
wife was then so old and weak that
he could not think of taking her with
him. The extracts published contain
description of Mr.. Kruger's trip to Eu-
rope. The writer says he left every
thing to the management of the gen.
erals

and Scratched.

Princeton, Nov. 14-The little tiger
mascot which was sent to Captain Da-
Wis as gift from Coach Hildebrand to
be used at the Yale game tomorrow
broke loose to-day and almost escaped
from the athletic field. Captain Davis
was leading it out on the field, when
the animal suddenly slipped it's collar
over it's head and bounded out across
the gridiron. Captain Davis and Coach
Barnard pursued the fugitive, and af-
ter sprint of $50 yards the captain
sprang upon it and after being bitten
and scratched badly succeeded, with
Bannard's help, in fastening the collar
on it's neck. The active mascot will be
kept within the field house until the
game starts tomorrow, when it will
appear on the side lines.

ALASKAN BOUNDARY DISPUTE.
United States Surveyors siake secret
Examination OF Land Marks.

ENamtn alton OF Lana llarLS.
Victoria, B. c., Nov. 1.-THE Prov
ince this evening says:
In the quietest possible manner, and
with every precaution TO secrecy, Unit
ed States surveyors have encrOached
upon Canadian territory to the north
east of Cape Fox and appropriated to
itself thousands of square miles of land
lying within the boundaries of British
Columbia to the westward of Portland
canal
The line from Portland canal runs
northwesterly for a short distance from
that body of water and then turns and
runs nearly due west, and finally it
connects with the Ykoot river at the
confluence of that stream with the Sti-
kline river At that same point there is
to be found an old post, supposed to be
erected by the Hudson Bay company,
and by running the lire to that post it
is apparently the claim of the American
government that the post in question
was placed in position by the Russians,
although the curvey line is distinctly
marked by squared and cut granite
monuments.
The monuments run to an apex and
mounted on the apex of each is cop
per rod, which surveyors state was
placed in position with view of mark
ing exactly the spot where the Amer
lean surveyors placed their instruments
when running the line.
1t is hardly possible to believe in
view of the presence of British Co
lumbia government official at Port
Simpson that Americans can have oc-
cupied this territory without such ac-
ton having come to the knowledge of
the government agent and by him
transmitted to the provincial govern

SUBMARINE BOAT TRIALS.
Tests of tho Holland Productions Con-
tinued Off Greenport


Greenport, L. l., Nov. 14-The tests
of the Holland boats were continued to-
day. The Moccasin made eight runs to
standardize her screws and her per-
formance gave promise of excellent re-
suits in the later trials. This was fol-
lowed by the torpedo test of the Adder.
She ran mile SUBMERGED turning while
under water and on the return trip fired
her missile. She rose but twice and
was exposed by about 35 and 40 seconds
at each rise. The torpedo went a trif1e
to the right of the target, owing to the
swing of the boat at the moment of dis
charge but had the object been any
thing larger than a 100 foot boat the
torpedo would have found its mark.
The trials will be continued tomorrow.
