TELLS WHY PEACE CAME
Transvaal Secretary Says Beers
Feared determination of
Their Race.

NEW YORK. Nov. sO.-F. w. Heitz,
former Transvaal secretary OF state, was
one OF the speakers at a meeting tonight
held under the auspices OF the Clan Ma
Gael, in commemoration of the Manchester
martyrs.
His remarks were confined principally to
the late war in South Africa, which he
characterized as brutal and inhuman. He
declared the Beers, like the Irish, had been
martyred. The only reason peace had been
signed, was the fear that the race would be
exterminated through the death Of the
women and children in the concentration
camps, where 5000 had perished.

United States Called Upon to DisallOw
0rinooo Blockade.

Convoy Up River from
This Country.

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, Nov S0-The
United States is confronted with the ques-
tion Of declaring its attitude regarding the
blockade Of the orinoco by the Venezuelan
government.
Some days ago the British authorities
promised to convoy the United States mer-
chant ship Manzanares up the river, but
withdrew the offer on the arrival Of the
United States gunboat Nashville on the
ground that the United States now having
a warship in port should convoy it's own
merchantmen.
Nashville is suited to the purpose
OF conveying the Manzsnares, but no ac-
tion is possible until instructions have been
received from Washington.
The United States is the only nation
which has not taken a decisive stand with
regard to the blockade. and it is said this
situation is embarrassing American ves-
sells. especially the Manzanares, which has
been here since June, it's cargo spelling and
the delay involving a great loss to the COM
pany.
Since the proclamation Of the blockade
1875 ships Of all nations except the United
States have entered and left the Orinoco
and II is insisted that this fact constitutes
the best evidence possible that the blockade
is ineffective.
The Venezuelan gunboats have left the
Orinoco unguarded for periods of two weeks
at a time and the guns Of the fort Los Cas-
tillos, which were the only means of main
tanning the blockade of Ciudad Bolivar,
have been removed.

EUROPE NEEDS ENGLAND.

A new story comes from Europe az
to the real cause OF the recent pence
oyertures In behalf OF the Beers. II
Is to the effect that the great powers
are becoming anxious as to the main
tenauce Of the political equilibrium, ana
need Great Britain to help straighlen
out the tanges In which they find the
meshes OF the political net involved.
They are fresh signs Of strain In the
Balkan states, and at the same time
the triple alliance The supposed guar
antee Of European peace--is said TO be
In danger Of breaking up, and they
want TO see Great Britain free from
her military burdens In Africa 20 that
her voice can be heard with greater
emphasis In the European cabinets.
The Balkan is never without It's SEN
sutlons. But at present Il is supposed
there Is scheme on foot Of uniting
servia ana Montenegro under Russian
influence. This Is supposed TO be con
trary to the interests Of Austria Hun
gary. The statesmen OF the dual mon.
archy look to England for support but
at present, II seems, that support can
be only OF a moral nature. Great Brit
ain would, no doubt. be pleased to see
Russlas efforts to establish a proteo-
torate over the slav states in the Bal
kan but while the African trouble lasts
that attracts her first and chief atten-
ton.
1t seems, however that Russia, too,
joins In the general sentiment for peace
In Africa. For one OF the leading pa
pers says
IF by some means, no matter what,
an issue could be found from the South
African war, then, and then only,
would things in Europe return to the
paths of peace from which the events
Of the past two years have forced them
far astray"
II this representation OF European
sentiment IL correct, strong pressure

delegates TO sue for peace on any
terms. Great Britain, too, will be APP
preached again, and, Notwithstanding
the somewhat chilly reply TO the COM
munlcatlon from The Hague, negotia-,
lions may be commenced In earnest for
peace,
The British government wants peace
with honor. It's opportunity seems TO
have come. For II Europe cannot get
along without English statesmanshlp
If It Is necessary for the peace of Eu-
rope that her army be disengaged, and
II this fact Is openly acknowledged by
the European governments, then she
can with the greatest honor indeed,
take steps to end the war, She would
do So then, prompted by the highest
and most dlsinterested motives con-
ceiyable.

THE PHILIPPINE INQUIRY.

The statements made by Governor
Taft before the senate committee on
the Philippine situation clearly reveal
the neceg5ity for full inquiry into the
methods OF warfare, That war is hell'

have a right to know to what partcu-
lar depths OF the lower regions the
Philippine contest is being carried. The
lamentable struggle in the islands was
commenced IN sclf-defense and In the

should be tolerated that justly deserves
the centure Of the civilized world.

HIS LAST GUN.

~ few days ago the LadysmIth cor
respondent Of the London Daily News
telegraphed that twenty-three British
columns were hunting for General De-
wet, and that his capture, or the ami
hilation Of his force would be only q
question Of time, He pointed out. how
ever that there Is surprisingly large
number of armed Beers in the field,
and that this Is accounted for on the
supposltlon that they have been re-en-
forced lately by Cape Colony insur-
gents
Now, q London dispatch states that
the pursuit Of the elusive Boer general,
has succeeded to the extent that one
gun, which is supposed to be his last,
has been captured, and that one OF his
leutenants has been routed Some am
munition, horses, mules and prisoners
also fell into the hands OF the pursuers
The engagement cannot have been on
a very large scale, Judging from the
small number Of kllled-only five and
wounded, And II Il is correct that
there are surprisingly large number
Of insurgents In the field, the result can
have no important bearing upon the
general trend OF events II Is a Ques-
ton whether Dewet, In his operations,
has very much use for large guns, or
whether he cannot DO better without
being encountered with them,
General BOtha does not often write
for publication, but Il Paris paper
states that dispatch has Just been re-
celved from him by Dr., Leyds In which
Botha states that the Beers are "sufH-
GENTLY proyisioned TO continue the
struggle hopefully and that the sltua-
tion IN Cape Colony was growing worse
for the British" If this is true, the
capture OF gun and a few prisoners
does not bring the end Of the war per-
ceptibly nearer than II has been sup
posed to be many times IN the past.

il Is not q new thing for either Re-

posed by their own party. TO charge
them with something wrong and dis
reputable on that account is no argu-
ment against tho soundness OF their

only OF pronounced censure. The OH
Ger whom the Mayor desires TO remove

derstood to be Independent of political

belonged to another political party.
That should cut no figure in the ques-
tlon OF his removal or his retention. He
