the wound for the original operation

remain in the hopsial for probably two
weeks.

that General Funston will be fully re-
covered within two weeks. The oper-
alton involved the reopening of the

HOLLAND OFFER NOT RENEWED.
Incident of the Dutch Note Comes to
Nouuht.

London, Feb. A. j. Balfours ref
erence to the peace negotiations in the
house of commons last night was inter-
preted as prma facie evidence that the
incident had closed. He would not
promise the papers definitely within
twenty four hours if the Dutch govern
ment had revised its overtures and ask
ed for Reconsideration of the matter.
The Boer intriguers, with organized
agencies for reaching the continental
press. have sought to produce the inn
preston that several foreign govern
meRts We're behind the Dutch ministry;
but there is no proof that ony concerted
measures have been taken. The dis
patches from The Hague stating that
the ministry there considers Kruger
and his associates as utterly impracti-
cable in refusing to modify their de-
mands for independence are probably
much nearer the truth
Meanwhile the government support
ers here assert with confidence that the
publication of the correspondence will
strengthen the hands of Chamberlain
and impair the force of Lord Rosebery's
Chesterfield speech.
Comments of the evening press on
Rudyard Kipling's latest jeremiad re-
veal an increasing feeling of Impotence
which is not confined to liberals. but is
shared by the unionists. II is urged
that even a satirist is not justified in
blushing for his own country on the
ground that amnesty may be condi-
ton of peace. "Hystericar' is the word
which even South Africans apply to
Kipling. They are, however, deeply in
terested in the Kaffir boom, which is
dependent upon the current belief that
the war is nearing an end and the paci-
fication of the Rand already assured.
Interest In the stock market remains
centered upon the mining section,
where much speculative excitement
prevails. Kaffirs were firm and active
yesterday. altho the failure of the
Dutch peace negotiations was generally
conceded.
