NEW ERA IN SOUTH AFRICA
MR.. BALFOUR SAYS PEACE is ESTAB-
LIsHED ON AN ENDURING BASIS.

London, June Ga. j. Balfour. the govern
ment leader in the House Of Commons. in a
speech at a Conservative banquet in London to-
night, referred to the South African war. He
said the load was only thoroughly realized now
that it had been removed, and that peace hao
not been bought by unnecessary concessions.
Mr.. Balfour said he believed the terms Of peace
possessed every element Of certainty, perma-
nence and stability and that new and happy
era had dawned in South Africa TO nave
acted upon the advice of Lord Rosebery and Sir
Henry CampbelI-Bannerman," said the speaker,
land bought peace at the price of complete
amnesty, would have been to put a premium on
rebellion, while to have negotiated with MI
Krtiger and his advisers would have been
fatal mistake"
Mr.. Balfour said he could respect the fighting
burghers but not those who had deserted the
republics in South Africa The contention OF the
Liberals he continued, that peace might nave
been secured year ago was untenable, because
General Botha then demanded independence
1T would have been absolute lunacy,' added
Mr.. Balfour, ito have granted a representative
government at once, and had we been able 10
secure, peace on those terms there would nave
been no security for enduring peace
Mr. Balfour devoted the latter part OF ms
speech to ridiculing the divided counses or the
Liberal party.

American vessels, and would be prepared to de-
fend them as the property of American citizens.

London, June 6.-Prior to the second reading
Of the Loan bill in the House Of Lords to-day,
Lord Goschen liberal, and former Chancellor
of the Exchequer) announced that he desired
to say a few words the financial position Of
the country. Consols, which were now paying
only 212 per cent. stood at 81. Before the con-
version of 1885 per cent consoIs stood at 1O1.
If they had been converted then they would
have been worth only 80 so that the stock
was really fifteen points higher, and that after
a costly war and the borrowing Of 9OOOOOO

graduate itself on a situation which showed
such economic stamina.
