from the rank of lieutenant general to general
and receive higher rank in the peerage
and money grant from Parliament
Lively scenes are expected on the Stock Ex-
change. Prices have been moving up during the
last few days in anticipation of the glad tidings.
and the "Kafir circus" will probably be in
wild state of excitement Immediately business
is resumed this morning
From all parts of the country rejoicings are
reported. and the foreign kilograms indicate
that the news has been received with general
satisfaction on the Continent. except in Belgium
and Holland The people in Amsterdam are
said to be astounded. and Mr.. KRUGER is re-
ported TO have exclaimed being informed
that peace was concluded: My God, 1t is i'm
possble.'
The Pretoria correspondent of The Daily
Mall states that the British Government abso-
lutely rejected proposal by the Boer dele
gates. put forward earlier in the week at Pre-
toria. that the terms should be submitted for
ratification to Mr.. Kr1ger and the Boer repre-
sentatives in Holland. Hence in the conclusion
of peace no notice whatever has been taken OF
the Beers in Holland
The terms will show that the British Govern
ment has carried its contentious on every vital
point while minor concessions. particularly in
regard to generous financial treatment will
greatly appeal to the Beers in general The
value of General Kitchener's personality S a
factor in the conclusion of peace can never be
overestimated
There is no doubt that peace will be generally
popular among the Beers.
Summonses have been sent out for Cabinet
council this morning. at which the dispatches
received from South Africa will be considered
and the terms of the announcement to be made
in Parliament agreed upon
It is regarded as a curious coincidence that
the news of peace should have been known in
England on the anniversary of the public cele-
brations of the peace of Amiens. a hundred
years ago. Then the nation returned solemn
thanks for its victory In prolonged struggle
with the French Republic.
Now that the war is over it is interesting to
recall the fact that it early in October.
1899 that the conference between Lord Milner
and President KRUGER came TO termination
owing to failure to arrive at an amicable set
tlement in regard to the grievances of the Out
landers of Johannesburg. On October the
British reserves were called out On the 10th
the historic ultimatum was received by the
British Government; the 11th the war be-

evening the War Office announced it to the
world The government had led the nation to
believe that the first statements would be made
by Mr. Balfour in the House of Commons to-
day. and there can be little doubt that the OBJ

evening was to take the wind out of the sails
of the Parliamentary announcement and thereby
prevent a repetition of the scenes that took
