KAFFIRS ARE A MENACE.
Armed Blacks May Cause Trouble for
the British in south Africa.

VIENNA, Aug. 23.-The Fremdenblatt to-
day publishes an interview with an Aus
tralian who travelled from South Africa to
England on the steamer with the Boer
generals Botha. De Wet and Delarey. The
Australian is credited with saying that in
the course of a conversation General
Botha said to him: ut is probable Eng
land has no need to fear further trouble
from the Beers, but the civilization of
South Africa is threatened by the Kaftirs.
England armed these savage, brave, but
untrustworthy tribes to fight for her; now
the war is ended the Kaffirs have not re-
turned their arms, but have retreated with
them to inaccessible places in the noun
tains, where they are reported TO be en-
gagged in daily shooting exercises and
preparation for war. Unless the English au-
thorities display the greatest energy the
KafTirs are likely to cause great trouble"
Referring TO political matters, the Frem-
denbatt says General BOtha told its in
formant that England's best course would
be to grant the Beers an independent Par
lament; that this was the only possible
means of securing the peaceable develop
ment of the country.

adopted in the case of General Hookers
death, to fulfill a duty for the performance
of which the New Jersey soldiers who had
fought under Hooker in the Third Army
Corps and in the Eighth Army Corps hav-
ing solmenly pledged themselves. In 1879,
just prior to his death. General Hooker
was present at a reunion of the Eighth
Regiment Association in this city and
along with General Sigel was an honored
guest. 1t was at this banquet that General
Hooker. foreseeing his death, suggested
that a committee be appointed to take such
action might be deemed proper by the
association. In accordance with General
Hookers request the association appointed
a committee, to which was added the name
of General Sigel. who readily accepted the
duty and submitted a set of resolutions

WANT THE TARIFF REVISED.
Farmers in Favor of Reducing Rates
Articles Made by Trusts.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson has returned from
the West and when asked to define the
tariff plank adopted by the Republicans
of Iowa he said: 1T means that the people
want a revision of those schedules that
were adopted to protect industries which
no longer need such protection. That is
what they expect of the Republican party.
They are particularly anxious to see modi-
fications of the duties that effect the trusts.
That is the situation in Iowa and through
out that section of the country generally.
Abundant crops have resulted in exceptional
prosperity. The Western banks are over
flowing. The farmers have improved their
farms to the utmost, and are now invest
ing in land, even going to the extent of
buying land in British Columbia. Under
these circumstances they believe that the
time is ripe for such moderate notifications
of the tarin as l have indicated and il
should be emphasiZed-this does not mean
that the people of Iowa are any less pro-
tectionist than they have always been"
Speaking of the President Secretary Will
son said that the people were enthusiastic
in their approval of his administration, and
many Democrats expressed regret that he
was not the leader of their party. He con-
tinued: They regard his course in ap-
pealing to the courts 10 regulate the trusts
as logical and manly. They have every

thoroughly tested; that If it proves defec-
tive the President will advise Congress to
that effect and that Congress Will promptly
remedy the defects The Western people
regard Mr. Roosevelt as fearless and hon
est and they love that type of man. IL

FIGHTING AT Aqua DULCE
CONTINUOUS SKIRMIsHING. BUT NO
DECISIVE ENGAGEMENT.
Trouble Growing out of the Demand
British Company for
steamer Not Yet Settled.

PANAMA. Colombia, Aug. 23.-Informa-
ton has been obtained here from revolu-
tionary sources that up to Aug. Il the gov
eminent General Morales BERT. who has
been fighting the insurgents at Aqua Dulce
had not surrendered. Fighting in the Aqua
Dulce district continues daily, but there
have been no big engagements since the
battle of July 30.
The complications caused by the refusal
of the Pacific Steam Navigation Company
of Liverpool TO transport troops from
Buena Centura to the isthmus on board
the steamer Ecuador not yet ended.
General Salazar, Governor of Pan
anna, has received communica-
ton from the acting British consul
here, Mr.. Hudson. saying that his Males
tvs government had instructed him TO ask
what protection Colombia could give Brit
ish vessels against destruction by insur-
gent forces in the event of their trans
porting troops of the Colombian govern
ment. To this communication General Sal
azar replied that the Pacific Steam Navi-
cation Company was obliged TO transport
government troops by the terms of a con-
tract made in 1879 between the company
and the national government; that this
contract should be fulfilled by the COM
pany without the necessity of the govern
ment giving previous guarantees of pro-
lection, and that the insurgents could not
oppose the transportation of Colombian
troops in a British vessel because any in
umatiOn OF violence or act of violence on
their part would expose them TO be treated
as pirates, lnsomuch as they have not been
recognized as belligerents. General Sala-
Ear said further that in the event of an
insurgent attack upon a British vessel car
rylnS government troops the government
would be ready TO protect this vessel with
all the forces at its command, and that
the British men-of-war now in Colombian
waters had been sent there with the object
of protecting the interests guaranteed by
the British flag.
The Colombian government has assembled
1900 troops under General NelaZco at Buena
Ventura, and desires to transport them to
Panama. 1t endeavored to compel the
agents of the British steamer Ecuador,
owned by the Pacific Steam Navigation
Company, to perform this service. This the
companys agents refused to do and the
matter was placed before the British con-
sui at Panama. At the request of the Pa
cific Steam Navigation Company the Brit
ish cruiser Phaeton was sent to Buena
Ventura to protect British interests. There
