SCHWAB MAKES A MT
LIONIZED BY THE NOBIL-
ITY OF VIENNA.
Attends Numerous Court Balls
and Dinners Given in
His Honor.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-According
to the Vienna correspondent Of the
Herald. the reception OF Mr. Charles
NJ. Schwab at the Austrian capital
was a splendid one. The emperor Is
quoted as saying that he would gladly
welcome the news that any number
Of Americans were coming over here
and he meant to show that in his re-
ceptiOn OF Mr.. Schwab. The steel
trusts president made a record In
getting an invitation to the court ball.
All the invitations had long since
ceased and the books Of the court were
closed. The answer at first was i'm
possible" but that there is no i'm
possible" was shown by the fact that
Mr. and Mrs Schwab were present
Thereby they saw one OF the finest
sights in the world-a Viennesse court
ball
Mr.. achwab made a record and as
tonished people here by ordering a
special train to take him to Budapest
So enthusiastic were the Hungarians
over his large handedness and enter
prise in the matter that they met him
with cries as he arrived and departed
of ellen Schwab," the first word, II
may be explained. meaning bravo"
He was given a dinner at Hotel
Bristol at which there were present,
among others, the hereditary Prince
Metternich. Count Szappary. who had
done Mr.. Schwab the honors in Buda-
pest as president OF the Park Club
considered there one OF the
finest clubs in the world Count
Sternburg, Herr Novak. Of Prague,
one of the leading commercial men
in Australia, and Herren Charles Ar
thur and Ernest Wolf. DR. De Grie
Wittgenstein, the largest steel man
in Austria, gave a party in Mr.
Schwabs honor the night he and Mrs.
Schwab left They went direct from
that party to the train-a move
which rather aStonished the guests
present but which Mr. Schwab de-
scribed as the way we do things in
America"
People say that Mr. Schwab COM
bined a touch OF business with a deal
Of pleasure and that he found time
to talk about the possibilities of the
steel interests in Austria and that
questions of an amalgamation Of in
terests were not foreign to Germans.

LONDON, Jan. Zs.-The government
OF Holland has offered IN the most
friendly terms 20 help in bringing
about peace In South Africa. In
communication TO the British govern
ment the Dutch government suggests
hat II might BE- permitted TO act as
. SORT OF diplomatic agent for the
Borr delegates. The government, how
,ver. expressly disayows any attemp;
q, intervention. and does not mention
any terms.
II was learned by a representative
n the Associated Press that the Brit
sin government infers that 1t would
not have been approached unless the
Dutch authorities were convinced that
the Boer delegates now in Europe
were willing 10 accept the cardinal
points OF the British peace terms. so
frequently announced In parliament.
Lord Rosebery is generally credited
with having brought about this move
ment on the part OF the Dutch gov
ernment. The Daily Mail claims the
credit for the initiation OF the peace
movement. That paper says that after
Lord Rosebery's speech at Chester
field. they sent DR.. Bisschop on a
mission TO the continent 10 invite the
Boer delegates to a consideration OF
the basis Of negotiations which Lord
Rosebery suggested. namely. TO grant
the Boers government on the
Canadian model: no unnecessary pro
longation Of military occupation; COM
plete amnesty TO the Boeres and col
onial rebels. and grants Of money to
enable the Beers to restart their
farms.
Dr. Bissrhop had had Ions con-
ference with the Boer delegates on
the continent. with the exception Of
Kruger
According to the paper Bisschop
persuaded the delegates to hold a
conference and discuss the proposals.
Then followed a visit OF DR.. Kuyper.
Dutch premier to London.
