MARYLAND CLAYS.

The State Geological Surveys compre-
hensivc report on the clays of Maryland,
recently issued, makes strong suggestions
and furnishes new data for the extension
of one Of Western Maryland's most i'm
portapt industries The famous Mount
Savage fire clays, the best in the United
States, are produced by three mines in
Garrett and Allcgany. The Surveys re-
port indicates that this clay is much more
widely distributed than commonly sup
posed. DR.. G. G. Martin. of the Survey
staff, reports the outcrop of rich deposits
of the fire clay at Blaine, Swallow Falls,
and in other localities, the first two being
close to railroads and other circumstances
being favorable to mining. Samples from
these deposits, tested in the Surveys lab
oratory, have proved quite as refractory
as the clays from the present workings.
DR.. Martin also reports thick outcrop of
a new flint-clay in the valley of the Castle
man river This has been tested by DR..
Heinrich Ries, the leadin G clay expert of
the country, and he pronounces it one of
the most refractory in America. 1t re-
sisted a heat temperature near 800 degrees
Fahrenheit, above that at which The Mount
Savage begins to melt. The report on
Maryland clays has now gone broadcast

THE TERMS OF THE PEACE.

William T. Stead, in a cablegram to the
New York american and Journal from
London, says of the peace terms:
Fifst-The demand for unconditional
surrender, SO passionately insited upon
by Lord Salisbury, Field Marshal Roberts
and the ministerial newspapers, has been
abandoned.
Socond-The Beers have secured bet
| ter terms for themselves than those which
Secretary Chamberlain refused to concede
them 10 months ago.
Third-The infamous Punishment pro-
clamation has been Cancelled and,
Fourth-A war indemnity Will be paid
by Britain to the Beers in the shape of a
nominal loan, but real grant of several
millions sterling in compensation for, pri-
vate property destroyed in the war.
The meaning of this is that, after spend
| ing an extra hundred millions sterling in
the vain endeavor to enforce uncondition-
al surrender, the ministers have at last
| been compelled to purchase on more oner-
| Gus terms than those which the Beers
would have accepted Is months since.
Alike in the making of peace as in the
| making of war, the ministers have made
| sorry mess of it.
In April, 1901, Lord Kitchener told
Lord Miner that General Botha was
| willing to make peace on terms honorable
| to both parties which would secure every
| thing Britain wanted, but in order to gain
this satisfactory settlement it was essen
| tial that there should be amnesty for the
| Cape rebels and that the kaffirs should
not lie enfranchised. Milper refused.
| Kitchener imrlored him to reconsider his
determination.
eve can make peace now" he said,
| ''but if we refuse these terms we shall
| have to so on for two years before TIE
Beers are hunted down. 1t will be a
| costly, bloody business, and on your head
| will be the responsibility"
Miner was obdurate, Botha's offer was
| rejected and the war went on. Fifteen
! months of experience proved the sound
| ness of kitchener's calculations. Hence
| the unconditional surrender party has
thrown up the sponge and Miner has
| been compelled to assent to regular
peace concluded on regular conditions.
What will be the result at home? 1t
secures the retirement of Salisbury at the
close of the session; it will enormously
| reinforce the popular opposition to the
corn duty and corresponding y strengthen
the Liberal leaders. 1t renders possible
the defeat of the Unionist Ministry if there
were to be a general election.
In South Africa the struggle will +, com
mence. The Beers have reluctantly aban-
doned the much priced independence of
the republics. The Dutch as race will
now work steadily for the independence
Of South Africa. So far is it from their
spirit being crushed that the British in
Cape Colony are clamoring for the sus-
pension of the Constitution and the estab-
lishment of an absolute government in
order to checkmate the political designs
of the Africander bund.

lishment Of a permanent popular rep
resentative government There is
nothing in this provision Of the bill,
says the Baltimore Sun, to indicate
that tie independence Of the Filipinos
is contemplated. \ recent speech by
President Roosevelt was interpreted
by some optimists as pledge that the
Fi!ipinos might soon receive indie
pendeDce. 1t docs not appear that the
President intended to convey such an
imprcssioE-celtainly not to hold out
the hope that there would be any

If this bill is passed by the House,

ton that the Senate will confirm the

MARYLAND LEADS.

Final reports from Charleston show
that Maryland's geological industrial ex-
hibit at the South Carolina Interstate and
West Indian Exposition has Won the high
est award bestowed by the judges upon
any State for its display of the same sort
of resources. The exhibit which was in
stalled for the State by the Maryland
Geological Survey under the direction of
DR.. W. B. Clark. received eleven gold
medals. Ten was the number first an
nounced. The one overlooked has been
won by the Washington Hydraulic Press
Brick Company at Severn. This puts
Maryland at the head of the list of the
winners of first honors. The next six
States follow her in this order: New York
and North Carolina, six each; Missouri,
five; Georgia, four; Illinois and Ohio,
three each. Maryland also took twelve
silver and bronze medals and five honor
able mentions.
Only forty nine gold medals were
awarded in all to the entire country in the
department of mineral resources and in
dustries. Great corporations like the
Standard Oil Company took some of these.
The exhibit has not cost more than S., 600
when every detail Of its expense has been
added. 1t represents only about one
eighth of the money spent by Maryland
for Exposition purposes, yet it is the only
result of the States outlay for the Expo
sition which has tended strongly to push
the State into greater prominence before
the thousands of progressive people who
visited Charleston this year. With the
experience gained at Buffalo, where it
also won distinction, and now at Charles
ton, the Geological Survey is much the
better prepared to make Maryland again
a WHINE: on the more difficult field to be
presented by the great Louisiana Purchase
Exposition now organizing in ST. Louis.
