London, May 24.-Greater public in

The Stock Exchange has fully made

declares the bases of peace were
signed at Pretoria Thursday.
The cabinet meeting adjourned at
BIO p. m.
The Associated Press has ascertain
ed that the government regards the
war as practically ended.
Advices received by the war office
indicate that whatever decision the
Boer conference may arrive at, most,
IT not all, of the Boer leaders who went
to Pretoria will not continue the fight.
The present negotiations were merely
for the purpose of enabling the Boer
leaders to Save their faces" After
they learn the results of the meeting

pected to announce their reluctant ac-
qulescence with the British terms.

FIRM in HIS POSITION.
Bishop Thoburn' Again Before the Sen

Washington, May 24.-Bishop Tho
burn continued his testimony before
the Philippine committee of the SEN
ate during the day. He was examined
about various phases of the situation
and especially as to the rights of the
United States to dominate the Philip
pine islands. He said in reply to one
question that chaos would result if
England were to withdraw from India.
England had advanced civilization in
the Far East Hong Kong and other
places were made great points of COM
merce Hong Kong was, he said, bet
ter governed than Chicago and human
life was safer there. He said that the
United States had more rights in the
Philippines than it had over the Amer
lean Indians because the islands were
acquired by treaty. He was asked as
to whether he thought strong coun-
tries had the right to subjugate weak
ser ones and he replied that the ques-
tion did not apply to the United States
and the Philippines, because the isl
ands were acquired by treaty.
The committee refused to call as
witnesses senators and members who
had visited the islands. s8
