WILL NOT SEE THE KAISER
Boer Generals Refuse to Be Presented
BY British Ambassador.

Berlin. Oct. 1O.-It developed yes
terday that the Boer Generals declined
in a telegraphlc message to seek pre-
sentation to Emperor William through
the British ambassador, and the fact
has produced an extraordinary com.
motion among politicians and cour
tiers. No later than last Monday the
foreign Office received a message from
the generals announcing that they had
not the slightest objection to applying
for an interview through British gov
ernment channels, and 1t was even
understood here that the government
of Great Britain was willing to coun-
tenance the interview. On Wednesday
came q dispatch, saying the generals
were determined not to apply to the
British government, but would leave
the emperor to summon them himself.
This, of course, would have put his
majesty in direct opposition to Great
| Britain, and the announcement imme-
diately followed that the proposed in
terview would not take place.
Various explanations are given of
the Beers motives. A favorite idea is
that DR.. Leyds, who is called the
Beers evil genius, devised the whole
thing SO as to strike back at the en-
peror for refusing to receive Mr..
Kruger.

B. 8 0. TO CONTROL READING
Reported In Baltimore That Pennsy
Will Thus Secure Rival Road.

viii Thus Secure Rival Road
Baltimore. ND, oct 1O.--It is re-
ported here that the acquisition OF
the Reading by the Baltimore and
Ohio is settled upon. It is said that
the relations of the Baltimore and
Ohio TO the Reading will be somewhat
similar TO the connection between tho
Pennsylvania aud the Baltimore and
Ohio. This Is that the Baltimore and
Ohio win not own a majority of the
Reading stock, but viii possess a
large majority. and become the most
powerful single stoclholder in the
property.
The object in turning the control Of
the Reading over to the Baltimore
and Ohio Is generally accepted to be
in order TO perfect the community of
ownership scheme without conflicting
with the Pennsylvania laws. which
are strict in prohibiting competing
railroads IN that state from owning
stock in one another. Otherwise the
Pennsylvania Railroad would assume
control itself
II is declared most positively that
the recent issue Of s42.5O0,0OO Of the
new Baltimore and Ohio stock Is
largely to pay for the Reading stock
that viii be turned over 70 the Balti
more and Ohio.
