LOOKING FOR SOUTH
AFRICAN PEACE NEWS
No Official Declaration Is Yet Made by
English Cabinet--WIl Take
More Time.
[nY AssocIArEn rnEss.l

London, May 23.-Peacc in South Az
rica is regarded as assured, but an Off
cial declaration to that effect is still lack
ing, and there is nothing official to indi-
cate when announcement may be ex-
pcctcd
Opinion is divided as 10 whether n
statement on the situation will be issued
tonight after the cabinet meeting, or
whether il will be reserved for the meet
ing Of the house oi commons on Mon
day.
II seems however, AT the best. that only
the basis Of the peace terms will be before
the ministers and that il they are accepted
the discussion Of the details may still &c
cupy some time during which presumably
an arrnisiicc will be- declared. Mean
while, outside the Boer commando, inn
mcdiaiely connected with the peace negoti-
atoms, fighting continues.

Fort de France, Island of Martinique.
May 25.-At o'clock yesterday afternoon
the sky was clear and the population was
calm, but despite this favorable change in
the situation many families left Fort de
France by the French steamers Versailles
and the Vile dc Tanger for the Island of
Trinidad
This, with the 1900 persons who have
gone to the Island Of Guadaloupe, and
many others who have sought refuge at
St. Lucia and other islands, has lessened
the population considerably.
Besides these some 1000 people have
left for the southern part of the Island
now assembled.
This dcsertion of Fort de France has
resulted in the disorganization of many
trades. A number OF bakers have been
compelled to close their stores owing to
the fact that their employees are among
those who have fed.
Looks More Assuring.
The French cruiser Tage, having Ad-
miral Servan OH board, arrived here this
afternoon. She reported that Mount Pelee
now presents more assuring prospects.
The clouds of smoke leaving the crater
mingle with the clouds in the sky and
do not have the threatening aspect they
formerly had.
A new crater has formed in the vicinity
Of Ajoupa Bouion.
