FEEL JUBILANT.
British Embassy at Washington Re-
ceives News of End of the War.


Washington, June 2.-The officials Of
the British embassy here share the
jubilant feeling existing in London
over the termination of the war in
South Africa. They view with much
satisfaction the close of the long strug-
gle. Official notice of the signing of
the terms of surrender came to Mr..
Raikes, the British charge here, in a
cablegram from the foreign Office. 1t
was very brief and was in accord with
the statements contained in the Asso-
ciated Press dispatches.
President Roosevelt was furnished
copy of the Associated Press dis
patch giving the news of the signing
of the surrender terms.
The impression prevails in official
circles that the terms Of surrender
named by the British in their negotia-
tions with the Beers have been very
liberal in character, perhaps from the
double desire to bring the war to a
close and to have this happy event
formally proclaimed before the corona,
tion of King Edward in June. From a
commercial point of view the cessation
of hostilities will result beneficially to
/ American exports to South Africa, the
/ reports issued from time to time by
the foreign commerce bureau of the
/ state department showing that they
have suffered considerably since the
!, beginning of the war several years
ago

Cheering and Horn Blowing Crowds March on London Streets
1t is a Shock to Kruger-Former Transvaal
President Can Hardly Believe
the News.

ImprompUu professions marcneu up
and down the Strand and Piccadilly.
Sporadic cheering and much horn
blowing atoned for the slimness of the
crowds, which, had their volume been
greater, would doubtless have rivalled
"Mafeking night" AS it was, the
demonstrations of the night resulted
in a genial and harmless sort of jubi-
lation, which continued until long after
midnight.
Outside of Buckingham palace,
where King Edward kept himself in
seclusion, crowd of fairly good pro-
portions gathered, and here, as else
where, the national anthem was sung
Justify.
In the meanwhile the news had been
conveyed to most of the churches,
whose bells changed out the message OF
peace. Preachers stopped in their
PRAYERS and their sermons to read
Lord Kitchener's laconic message to
their congregations. At st. PauPs
cathedral the bishop of Stepney made
this announcement and impressively
prefaced the reading of Lord Kitch-
eners message by saying: God has
been pleased to answer our prayers
and give us the blessings of peace"
DR.. Parker electrified 5000 listeners
at the City Temple by suddenly inter
jecting the dispatches received at the
war office, to which he added an ex-
preston of hope that this would also
Mean Peace in England,
and that there would no longer be
anything heard of pro-Boers or pro
Britons.
Cabling from Pretoria, the CORE
spondent of The Daily Mail, after an
nouncing the signing of the terms OF
surrender, says the British authorities
absolutely rejected the suggestion OF
the Boer delegates that the terms OF
surrender should be ratified by Mr..
Kruger and declared that the Beers in
Europe had no hand in the settlement.
"The terms will show" continues the
correspondent. that the British gov
ernment carried its contentious on
every vital point, while the minor con-
cessions, particularly those in regard
to generous financial treatment, will
greatly appeal to the Beers in general.
The value of Lord Kitchener's per-
sonality aS a factor in the conclusion
of peace can never be over estimated.
There is nc doubt that peace will be
popular among the Beers.

Liverpool and Manchester. celebrated

PORTO RICAN SCHOOLS
Gratifying Increase in Number of
Pupils and Teachers Shown
by Annual Report.

Washington. Dec. 21.-The annual
report of the commissioner of educa-
ton for Porto Rico, Samuel McCune
Lindsay. says that the poorest schools
there are as good as. and in some re-
spects better than, the poorest of the
same grade in very many parts of the
United States, although the everyday
output of the elementary school can
not be compared with the best city
schools of the same grade in the states.
An American free public school now
exists in every municipality in Porto
Rico.
The school year closed last June with
S74 schools open, 1898 pupils enrolled
and 923 teachers employed, an increase
of 10 per cent in the number of schools,
p per cent in enrolment and 20 per
cent in the number of teachers over the
previous year. The high water mark
during the year in the enrolment was,
in the ordinary public schools, $3.50, to
which should he added 6,576 pupils en-
rolled in the high, normal and special
schools, giving grand total of 81 ,S63.
or 10 per cent of the total population
of school age and over per cent of
the total population of the island. The
report says that these figures show
that under American civil government
the educational advantages offered free
to the masses of people, as compared
with the maximum facilities provided
by the Spanish government, have near
" doubled

Cause of Accident.
IN discussing the cause of the acct
dent Mr.. Short said he understood that
the trains had each left Brentwood at
the proper time but the owl was los
ing time. He did not think the period
between the stopping OF the owl and
the crash was more than three min
utes. The man who went back TO give
the signal, he said, could hardly have
had time to stop the flyer before it
was on the owl However. Mr.. Short
explained that he did not have very
distinct idea of time. The flyer, he
said, must have come onto the Fresno
coach at nearly full speed The brakes,
possibly, had just been set How the
engineer and firemen were not killed,
crashing through the train, is a mys-
terry; they both must have lain down.
1t was a complete telescoping. The
trucks of the Fresno coach were forced
forward under the diner and the
wheels of the engine remained on the
track. supporting the coach. The en-
CINE was completely covered by the
shell of the coach, and that anybody
escaped alive from the trap is a mys-
terry. The fender of the engine tore

ULTERIoR DESIGNS.
Ex-Ministsr to Venezuela Has Doubts
About Germany.

<10OAN ON@~-~~~0ys
Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 21.-Colonel Will
liam L. Scruggs of Atlanta, United
States minister to Venezuela from 1889
to 1893 and who for three years aft
err that represented the Venezuelan
government in its dispute with Great
Britain, said today:
1T is undoubtedly Germany's de-
sign to see how far she can go without
becoming involved in actual warfare
with the United States. In effect. she
wants to force our hand on the Mon
roe doctrine and make US say whether
we are willing to modify il or to as
sumo responsibility for the acts Of the
countries that are, to a certain extent,
under our protection. This is already
apparent in the query as TO whether
the United States viii assume the re
sponsibility of making Venezuela
comply with the findings of arbitration
in case it is against that country. 1
think England is sincere in her desire
simply to collect a debt, but there is
every evidence that Germany has other
objects in view.
Must Face Issue.
while, in my opinion, the Monroe
doctrine will be in no wise affected by
the present affair, because there seems
TO be every prospect for a peacea bic
and satisfactory settlement through
the United States as an arbitrator. the
issue will have TO be faced sooner or
later The world is getting so popu-
lous that the settlement of those natur-
ally rich South American countries
cannot be longer delayed If European
nations cannot acquire territory in
South America their subjects Will
nevertheless, continue to go there. The
result will be the United States viii
ultimately be called upon TO do one
of two things. Either they must
abandon or greatly modify the Mon
roe doctrine so that European nations
can adequately protect their own sub
jects, or they must assume a sort OF
sovereignty of these South American
republics and be responsible for then
good behavior Neither horn of the
dilemma is pleasant to contemplate
Mr.. Scruggs says President Castro
does not represent the best people Of
Venezuela.
"Castro's policy Colonel Serugg:
said. sis far from meeting the approval
, of the best citizens and those who have
Venezuelan interests most at heart He
is no doubt responsible in large
measure for the difficulties that nov
| confront his country"
