HAMMOND 7ELLS0F
JAMESON RAID PLANS
SAYS 1t Was Engineered by
Americans and That Paul
Kruger Broke Faith.

BOSTON. November 2I.-Released from
an oath not to reveal for three years
what he knew Of events leading up to
the Boer war. John Hays Hammond broke
his silence Saturday night at dinner
Of the Clover Club.
Mr.. Hammond said the Jameson raid
was a result Of activities of an associn-
ton consisting largely of Americans in
johannesburg.
AZ wait, especially said MIR. Ham
mono, ito correct misunderstanding 1t
has been said We we're acting under the
British fiag. That is false. Much SYM
pathy has been wasted on Dom Paul
kruger. He was opposed to progress.
believed the world was nat and that the
devil had q tail. His impositions were
such as no man Of the Anglo-Saxon race
would have tolerated.
"The Americans voted to take up arms
against him. There Was a spy in our
camp. and for his benefit we, voted that
II we were commandments we would.
upon the first orders to fire, shoot down
our commanding od3cers. As q result no
Americans were made to enlist.
"The movement against Kruger was
not English. Jameson came into the fight
against our wishes and against the
