Lootina Bank.
Chicago, Sept. 5.-A cable dispatch
to the Tribune from Tangier says:
Paul stensland's confession, made to
Assistant States Attorney Olsen,
clears up much of the smSsgtery sur
rounding the events leading up to the
crash which involved the ruin of the
Milwaukee Avenue State bank. He
took much of the blame upon himself,
but declared Cashier Herring was the
forger and that Herring got most of
the money. He exonerated his son
Theodore and the bank directors. He
declared il a lie that he had spent any
money on Leone Langdon Key or any
other woman. He declared that his

stole he put into real estate OF invest

Stensland made no attempt to deny
his guilt and only tried to minimize it.
His confession began with a state

that the total loss involved in the
banks failure would reach 100000.
He said:

THE BOERS IN POLITICS
DETERMINED TO HOLD BALANCE
OF POWER IN TRANsvAAL.
Special cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
JOHANNESBURG, December A.-At last
the political campaign in the Transvaal
may be said to have opened. The prelim-
mary maneuverng has taken an unreason-
able time, but the forces are now fairly
In position. True, the army of Het Volk
has not reached the ground, but the SYM
pathies of it's leaders are SO well known
that no one doubts upon which side its
forces will be ranged up.
In the meantime the Boer generals OBJ
serve discreet silence regarding their
plans There is reason to believe that no
orders will be issued until practically on the
eve of the fight, but drilling is quietly and
vigorously going on. The Boer electors will
march to the political battlefield ready to
the last shoulder straps. The ideal which
animates them is unmistakable. The power
lost in war is to be regained in politics. BY
keeping the British divided and maintain
ing machihe-like unity in their own ranks
the Dutch leaders figure they can hold the
balance of power in their hands once again.
The contest is something more than a
struggle over an industry. Getting down to
bed rock, 1t must to large extent decide
the place South Africa will take in the en-
plre. Probably the Bond will win the next
election at the Cape; certainly the Unie will
dominate the Orange River colony: the
odds are that Het Volk will hold the bal
ance of power north of the Vaal. Thus
right through the center of South Africa
will be driven wedge of Dutch govern
ments, Dutch institutions, Dutch ideals.
