DEFENDS THE SOUTH
AFRICAN GOVERNMENT
Mr.. Chamberlain Says IrreconciIabIes
May Be Deported.

LONDON, July 30.-In the house of
commons today during the discussion
of the colonial office vote, replying to a
bitter attack on the governments pol
icy and Lord Miners administration
of South Africa by Mr.. Markham, Lib
eral, in which he charged that affairs
were growing worse, Colonial Secre-
tary Chamberlain defended the admin
istration of South Africa.
He said the greatest difficulty was
not the reconciliation of the Beers
and Britons but the reconciliation Of
the Beers with the Beers. The secre-
tary called attention to the fact that
the Beers were making every effort to
develop the country and were forming
local agricultural associations, of which
the chairmen in many cases were for
mer leaders of the Boer forces. Mr..
Chamberlain admitted that much re-
mained to be done, and said that if it
was found that the work of pacifica-
ton was prevented by irreconcilables
the government would not hesitate to
use it's strong power to deport the mis-
chief makers.

Hungarian magnate, and it is said he
sendeavored to stop the tactics of the
obstructionists upon his own response
bility and without the knowledge of the
government.
At meeting of the opposition depu-
ties today they resolved to continue
their obstructive tactics and declared
that they would have nothing to do
with Premier Hedevrary, who, they de-
clare, was unworthy of their recogni-
ton. The resolution embodied an a6~
dress. which it was decided to present
TO the emperor Their address an
nounces that there will be a contin-
uance of the obstruction until the ma
tion's demands, which they declared
were granted in 1857 (the date of union
of Austria and Hungary, are satisfied.
The meeting also resolved not to spare
the offenders at tomorroW'S sitting of
the diet.
Count Sapary, who is now in Buda-
pest, declares his readiness to inform
the commission that Premier Hedeyrary
had not the slightest cognizance OF the
affair, and that he alone was RESPONSE
BILE for the attempt at bribery, having
been led astray by political adventur-
ers.
