WILHELMINA HAS FEVER
QUEEN MOTHER AND PRINCE con-
SORT ALWAYS AT HER BEDSIDE.
Temperature On Wednesday Reached
1O4-Caught Cold While Sitting
in the Castle Loo Park.

AMSTERDAM, April 17.-AI classes of
the population are deeply grieved at the
illness of Queen Wilhelmina. Prince Henry
of the Netherlands. the prince consort. is
overwhelmed with anxiety and hardly
leaves the Queens bedside. The Queen
mother is also in constant attendance on
the royal patient. Whenever her Majesty
enjoys peaceful sleep, Prince Henry busily
occupies himself in replying personally 10
the numerous kilograms which are con-
stantly arriving from European sovereigns
and courts.
DR.. Roessings, one of the Queens attend
ing physicians, is staying permanently at
the palace. Her Majesty's temperature
yesterday reached the alarming height of
10i degrees. but the departure from the
palace of Professor Kosenstein. the pathol-
ogist of Leyden University, who has been
summoned in consultation, is considered a
hopeful sign that the crisis is past.
1t is reported that Queen Wilhelmina
caught cold recently while sitting in the
park 1t is also said that living at Castle
Loo does not seem TO agree with her Maj
esty. II was stated this morning her illness
was due TO a miscarriage.
The illness of Queen Wilhelmina is a
universal topic throughout the country,
and the various public bodies nave ex-
pressed sympathy for the Queen and their
hopes for her recovery. The condition of
the royal patient was unchanged at half
past S this evening.
The official journal of The Hague to-day
contains a notification from the minister of
the interior. DIR. Kuyper. to the effect that
Prince Henry of the Netherlands, the prince
Consort. desires that all public festivities
in celebration of his birthday, April 10. be
Cancelled in consequence of the Queens ILL
ness.
1t was authoritatively declared this after
noon that the report that the Queen is
suffering from peritonitis and nephritis is
untrue. Professor Roosenstri, the patholo-
gist of Leyden University, it is added. was
called in for consultation because the at
tendant physicians feared that pneumonia
might set in. The danger is now regarded
as past.
Prayers for the Queens recovery are be-
ing offered in the churches 1t is rumored
that another specialist, Prof. Nolan, has
been summoned to attend her Majesty.

IL possible, but that they will not brook
interference on the part OF the native
chiefs. The general added that the Ameri-

toms, would unfailingly enforce law and
order and protect the American civil and
military officials in the discharge of their
duty.
A force Of 200 men, under Colonel Bald
win, will start April % from Malabang for
Lanoa, Mindanoa, leaving behind a reserve

Dattos resist. which seems probable, as
they muster 10000 men, of whom 600 are
armed with rifles. The remainder are
spearmen and bolomen. These alive are
a different breed of fighters from the Fill
pinos. They are religious fanatics to whom
death while fighting is regarded as being
a passport to heaven. The American Of
Gals hope, however, to avert a crisis.

Negotiations at Pretoria Are Said to
BE Drawing to a Close.

LONDON, April 1.-THE Daily Mail
claims to have authority to announce that
a basis of peace has been practically
agreed upon at Pretoria. but says that
some little time will elapse before the de-
tails of the plan can be perfected. The
paper adds that on finding that the Brit
ish government refused, on Wednesday, to
modify its terms with regard TO amnesty,
Punishment and a responsible government,
the Boer delegates met again on Thurs
day. The British decision, practically leav-
ing them the alternative of accepting the
British terms or breaking up the confer
ence, was then communicated to them, and
the delegates proved much more reason
able.
When Lord Miner, the British high COM
missioner in South Africa, promised the
delegates one or two seats on the executive
council, subject to the approval of the gov
ernmen and pending the restoration of a
responsible government, they practically
agreed to accept the British terms. Some
details, continues the Daily Mail, which
are not likely to create difficulty, still
remain TO be settled.
Lord Miner has summoned from johann
nesburg an Australian expert, who is to
assist in estimating the cost of rebuilding
and restocking the Boer farms. The dele
gates, concludes the paper, have so far
Gcted quite independently of their repre-
SentatiVeS in Holland.

BATTLE OF SPION KOP.
OffciaI Dispatches Relating to Bull
Ier's Defeat Made Public.

a1 oDhh
LONDON, April 17.-AI the official dis
patches referring to the defeat sustained
by the British troops under General Buller
at Spion kop, Natal, Jan. "a, 1900, were
made public to-day. Those hitherto un-
published merely emphasize how hopelessly
muddled was the preparations for that en-
gagement. The controversy between Gen
eral Butler and General Sir Charles War
rem is proved to have been even more bitter
than previously limited at, while a new ex-
tract from one of Lord Roberts's dispatches
brings additional censure on General Bull
Ter. Lord Roberts declares that General
Buffers endeavor to put the responsibility
for the defeat on General Warren was not
justiiable. Roberts holds that it was Bull
ler's duty to intervene when he saw things
going wrong. This remark was caused by
a dispatch from Butler in which he saws:
'I saw no attempt on the part of Warren
to either grapple with the situation or com
mand his force himself. We lost our
chance by Warren's slowness. He seems
to me to be a man who can do we'll what
he can do himself, but who cannot COM
an independent command. | ought to have
assumed command myself when | saw
things were not going we'll / blame my
self now for not doing So
Butler explains that he failed to super-
sede Warren because it might have dis
credited the latter with the troops, which
was an especially serious matter. as. if
Butler had been shot Warren would have
succeeded to the supreme command.
The question Of the responsibility for
the actual retreat from Spion kop is
shrouded in a maze of dispatches, prov
ing that a mistake was made in sending a
heliogram and that there was a general
desire to shirk the onus. Beyond this
washing of dirty linen nothing appears to
have been accomplished by the publication
of the dispatches.

w. M. JONES IN JAIL.
He Denies the Charge That He Killed
George NJ. Haywood.

DETROIT, Mich, April 17.-William NJ.
Jones was arraigned to-day in the Police
Court on a warrant charging him with the
murder of George NJ. Haywood. whose body

a short distance from his home. Jones's

his arrest. He denied that he killed Hey
wood, of whom he spoke in the highest
terms, describing him as a very fine man.

Haywood, for whom he expressed much
sorrow, Jones said: What would | kill
Haywood for? L had everything my own
way. There was nothing L could gain with
George dead"

upon his life?" he vas asked.
Yes, / knew Ii. l had heard il talked

children. Haywood being dead would not

You could get a divorce from your wife"
suggested the reporter.

sibilities 1 did not kill George

Jones denied positively that he owned the
revolver found near Heywood's body, one
chamber Of which had been recently dis
charged.

Protest in the House of Commons by
John Redmond, Who Threat
ems Blow for Blow.
SECRETARY WYNDHAM'S REPLY
COMMENT OF THE DUBLIN PRESS ON
THE PROCLAMATION.
Basis of Peace in south Africa Said
to BE Agreed On-The Spion
kOp Disaster.

LONDON, April lin the House of
Commons to-day John Redmond, the Irish
Nationalist leader, speaking of the crimes
act proclamation issued last night by the
lord lieutenant of Ireland. Earl Cadogan,
said an infamous conspiracy was on foot in
England to foment crime in Ireland, where
none existed. The stories of outrages and
violence in Ireland were infamous cal
umnies. The Nationalists in Ireland were
only governed by a contemplate minority.
This statement was cheered by the Irish
members. A hundred men, continued Mr..
Redmond, stood ready TO replace every man
sent to prison in this struggle. They en-
treated Mr.. Wyndham, the chief secretary
for Ireland. to change his policy; but if he
continued it they would meet him face to
face and give him blow for blow. Their an
swer to his coercion of Ireland would be to
harden their hearts,, strengthen their or
ganization and compel redress.
Mr.. Wyndham replied that, while it was
true there was a comparative absence in
Ireland of crime against the person, the
lives of people were made miserable by in
timidation and boycotting. The govern
ment was not acting from political motives,
but as the result of a mass of
laboriously collected and carefully exam
ined.
A motion for adjournment to discuss
coercion made by Mr.. Redmond was re-
jected by a vote of 253 TO AS.
John Redmond and John Dillon have sent
a joint cablegram to former Congressman
John +. t1nerty, of Chicago, appealing
for American sympathy and support in the
Strugg against coercion.
The Irish Nationalist papers hail the re-
turn of the coercion regime as a boon. we
are glad. Let the Irish in America and
Great Britain note it. The castle people
have declared war on our rights. Let there
be war" says one leading Nationalist or
gan.

GRANTED NEW CHARTER.
Now Known as the "MutuaI Reserve
Life Insurance Company"

NEW ORK April 17.=Yesterday after
noon at Albany the Mutual Reserve Fund
Life Association of New York received its
charter as an old-line company. Under its
new title-"Mutual Reserve Life Insurance
C~ompany"-the organization now is a pure
ly mutual life insurance institution, incor-
porated under the legal reserve statute of
New York. The examination by the New
York insurance department preliminary to
granting the right of incorporation has
occupied three months. The condition of
the company was determined from the
standpoint of its ability to comply with the
requirements of the statute governing legal
reserve companies. The result of a most
careful and thorough examination under
taken by the department shows that the
company possesses a surplus, in excess of
all Liabilities including the full statutory
reserve of about $500. 900. The Insurance.
department increases the value of the real
estate holdings beyond the estimate Of the
company. At the beginning of the exam
ination the management asked of the de-
partment the utmost strlctneSS OF inquiry
into its affairs. and this course was rigidly
adhered TO. superintendent Hendricks is
satisfied that the company is amply able
TO comply with all the requirements Of the
law for incorporation as a legal reserve
or old line mutual life insurance company.
On this showing the charter was granted
yesterday afternoon, and now the Mutual
Reserve Life Insurance Company takes its
place as the third largest purely mutual
life insurance company OF New York.
President Frederick A. Burnham has thus
fulfilled his pledge TO the po~licyholders OF
placing the Mutual Reserve under the reg
ular law without depriving the policy
holders Of any part of their ownership in
the institution. The Mutual Reserve Life
Insurance Company begins it's new career
prosperOusly. Founded in 1881 II has within
a period OF twenty-one years paid in death
claims to its members 100000. 1t has
