Great Britain Paying Dearly for
 Subjugation of Transvaal.

London. Jan. S1.-The British reply to the Dutch note in regard to the bring ing about of peace in South Africa was dispatched yesterday to The Hague. The contents of the note are kept strictly secret. as the first publication of the text is intended to be made in Parliament Monday.
 Great Britalns reply is not in the na- ture of direct negative. though it is not unlikely that 1t wi have that effect. While Lord Lansdowne probably left. a foophole for further suggestions, he doubts the ability of the Boer delegates to control their fellow countrymen, and there seems little likelihood that the Dutch Government can secure guaran- tees in regard to the powers of the Boer delegates, sufficiently to induce Gfeat Britain to accede to the original request

BAPTIsTs PART WITH DIAz
Noted Cuban Evangelist Resigns as
 Missionary.

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 31.-Rev. A. J. Diaz, pastor of the Gethsemane Baptist Church of Havana. Cuba, is no longer a mission ary of the Southern Baptist Convention This statement is made by Dr. w. w.. IAndrum. who has returned from Cuba, where. with Dr. Mcconnell and Judge Hillyer, he went to settle the differences between the missions in Cuba and the Southern Baptist Convention. The an- nouncement that Rev. A. J. Diaz is no longer missionary of the church and that he goes out as one result of the commissions visit to Cuba. will be re- csived with surprise all over the South. Rev. Dr. F. c. Mcconnell and Judge George Hillyer are expected in a few days.
 When asked as to the results of his special visit to the Cuban Baptists, Dr. Landrum said: They are in the main services as the legal adviser of the Board. strengthened out what I feared would be a serious complication. touch ing the ownership of tho Gethsemane Baptist Church. It is the largest, most imposing and costly Protestant church building in Cuba. being valued at $100. .000 It belongs to the Southern Baptist Union and Is held in trust by the Home Mission Board of this city. The pastor of the Church. Rev Dr. A. J. DiaS. resigned his position as a missionary of the Board and the resignation was accepted. but the Church refused to accept his resig- nation as pastor. This produced an un- pleasant situation. It became necessary for us to explain to our Cuban brethren that as an independent church. they could choose whenever they wished as pastor hut If the minister selected was persona non grata to the Board. it-wouId refuse to give him an appointment As a missionary or to aid in supporting him. After several conferences between our committee and the Church. all differences were adjusted"

 Brother Knight.

Nashville. Tenn, Jan. M.-Admiral and Mrs. schley are the guests of Nashville tonight, and the city is in holiday attire in their honor. The train bearing them from Louisville over the L. and N. road was met at Bowling Green, Ky. today by a committee of Nashville's citizens. who joined them on President Smiths private car for the remainder of the jour- ney. Both the Admiral and his wife ap- peared in the best of health and spirits and expressed themselves as highly de- lighted with their stay in Louisville.
 Nashville was reached promptly on schedule time, $50 o'clock this evening. The handsomely decorated union station was packed to suffocation with mass Of cheering humanity as the train rolled in The crowds had been warned of Its ap- proach by the roar of the Admirars sa- lute from Capitol Hill. and the screech of whistles from every quarter. Bands in the station added to the noise. and when the distinguished visitors stepped from the car the roar was deafening, while the scene was an inspiring one. Knights Templar in full uniform were there to bid their brother Knight welcome and together with the committee from the retail merchants association escorted Admiral and Mrs. Schley to carriage drawn by four white horses, the start being made for the Duncan Hotel. where the visitors will stop while in Nashville. with but little delay.
 The streets along the route were lined with enthusiastic throngs and at the hotel a large crowd was assembled. Ac- knowledging the shouts of welcome with bows and smiles, the visitors. proceeded into the hotel and to their rooms, where they spent & quiet evening preparatory to a busy day tomorrow.
 Along the route from Louisville 1t was the same at every station-crowds and cheers and flags. At every stop the Ad- miral smilingfy shook hands with those who crowded about the car. He had pleasant word for all, but no speeches were indulged in.
 Tonight the weather is mild and pleas ant and indications are that conditions tomorrow will be propitious.

 MT. Tawney (Rep.. Minn-) argued that more would be accomplished by allowinn the Ways and Means Committee to re-. port upon his resolution after due tn-s vestigation of the law than by the adop~ tion of simple declaration now.
 Speaker Henderson pointed out that Mir.

MARIsCAL SPEAKS
Commitments Pan-American Confer
 ence on Its WorK


 ence on Its WorK
 Mexico City. Jan. g.-In closing the Pan-American Conference this afternoon Ignacio Mariscal, Minister Of Foreign Affairs of the Mexican Government. said in part:
 .'Overcomlng the most serious difficui- ties-1ou have successfully reached the goal of your Iabors and throughout your discussions you have displayed the dis tingt1ished courtesy that was to De ex- pected from the chosen representatives of the governments of America. Receive on this account the cordial fslicitations of the Mexican Government. But more than this, you have done. For reasons more fnomentous you deserve the con- gratulations, not only of the Mexican Government, but of all lovers of moral promises and justice. You have ad- vanced in practice the great principle of arbitration, the peaceful and rational solution of international controversies, so as to render less frequent the barbarous appeal to force. Ten delegations reached an agreement and signed a treaty of com pulsory arbitration with exceptions similar to those that figure In the Wash ington treaty which miscarried in 1890. a fate which we may reasonably hope is not reserved for the present convention. Nevertheless this is not the principal triumph obtained in the mattersof arbitra- tions. That triumph is undoubtedly the unanimous agreement of all the delega- tions. in spite of their apparently radical divergence as to the application of that great principal. to submit for settlement to the permanent arbitration court of The Hague all controversies that may arise among the governments of America due to the claims of private individuals for indemnities and damages"

Pittsburg, Jan. 31.-Edward Riddle tn jail dying, John Riddle, riddled with buckshot and in a precarfous condition, and Mrs. Peter K. soffei lying in the hos pital with self-infiicted bullet wound in the breast, is the sequel of the sensation al escape of the Riddles from the Alle- gheney jail, aided by Mrs. Soffel. the wife of the jail warden, Thursday morn ing.
 The story of the close of the Riddle tragedy is thrilling. The scene was a snow-covered road two miles east of Prospect. Butler County, and the exact place was at McClure's barn. where two double team sleighs filled with eight of- ficers. three of them Pittsburg detec- tives, overlook the Riddles in a one horse sleigh, stolen at Perrysville. The Riddles returned the firse after jumping out of the sleigh.
 Mrs Soners wound was through the breast.
 Edward Riddle was shot in the left arm, in the breast and in one leg.
 John Riddle was riddled with buck shot in the breast and head.
 The Pittsburg officers were met at Butler this afternoon by deputy sheriffs and two other officers. The officers were certain that they were on the right trail. The Riddles and Mrs. Soffel ate dinner at J. J. Stevens's. at Mount Chestnut. five miles east of Butler. They had made 1nt4 <,fA k.oA .F n,,tl .vnI nNR going several miles east, turned north and then west. The Pittsburg officers. only a few miles in the rear, took the wrong road for about eight miles, but when they found their mistake, they made up for lost time by telephoning and teiegraphing ahead for fresh horses.
 They reached Mount Chestnut not less than half an hour after the Riddles and Mrs. Soffel. At this point they secured fresh horses. The two sleighs, with the eight officers aboard. started westward and met the Riddles and Mrs. Soffel at McClure's barn, two miles from Mount Prospect. the Riddles having learned that s they were almost o~ertaken, aud taking what they considered the, only chance they had, drove eastward and met their doom.
 When the detectives and officers came within sixty yards of the fugitives they opened fire with Winchesters. The Bid- dies promptly answered with shotguns. Mrs. Soffel, too, stood up in the sleigh with a revolver in each hand and blazed away at her pursuers. When Ed Riddle fell and she saw she was about to be captured, she fired a bullet into her breast: An examination by physicians shows that she will recover, as the bull let was defected by her corset and the wound Is comparatively slight.
 Edward Riddle got a bullet in the breast which penetrated his right lung and will probably end his life before morning. John Riddle may recover, his wounds, though numerous, failing to reach a vital spot.

MANY WEAK POINTS
SPooNER AMENDMENT TC CANAL BILL CRITICISED.
Friends of the Panama Project Con- slider the Measure Open to At tack on the Ground of
 Impracticability.

New York. Jan. 31.-A Washington special to The Evening Post says:
 The Spooner amendment to the inter oceanic canal bill introduced Tuesday is satisfactory to the Panama element in its general purpose. but it is criticised for it's superabundance of detail. There is a feeling that it would have been President to buy, under certain condi- tions, the entire property and interests of the Panama Canal Company, without specifying the items embraced in this catalogue and particularly without put ting down the actual number of shares owned by Vhe canal company. The Presi. dent ought. also. 1t Is thought, to be empowered to construct the canal. using for that purpose such agencies as offer. in his judgment. the best promise of good work and speedy completion.
 The trouble with bringing in the Secre' tary of War as the constructing agent is that the engineer corps of the army is already overloaded with tasks which it cannot be gin to dispose of, and this fact is so widely known that the bill is onen to attack on the ground of imprac- ticabiIity, or as an entering wedge for increasing a stan department of the mill tary establishment
 Another point criticised is the provision that, in case the Nicaragua route IS chosen, after all, the waters Of Lake Nicaragua and San Juan River shaii be used as far as possible, and, in case the Panama route Is chosen, the work already done by the canal company shall he utilized as far as possible. These things might safely have been taken for granted especially if the army engineers had the work in charge. The trouble with a measure carrying so many details is that 1t presents a great many points for attack, whereaG a simple measure, containing only one idea. and that, broadly stated, offers strong, solid front to the enemy.
 The Nicaragua people, or the more req sonable element among them, have noth- ing very bad to say of the Spooner amendment They profess, indeed. to find considerable comfort in 1t, since it so distinctly directs the President. in ease the conditions prescribed as prelim-
