LONDON, March 21.—A dispatch from Lord Kitchener dated at Pretoria, March 20, says: Phillp Botha, Great Britain had agreed to withdraw their troops from the disputed territory at Tieu Tsin and reserve the question of title and proprietary rights for subsequent examina- tion. | Lord Lansdowne supplemented the an- souncement by explaining that the dispute concerned an extensive area on the left bank of the Pel Ho river, waich the Rus- sians occupled In the aatumn and elaimed by right of conquest. Subsequently the government was informed that China and Russia had reached an agreement placing | sy the area under Russian occupation. The | wilh & Gevernes Area, however, comprised plots belonging | OshhMet to the Northern Chinese raflroad and was therefore part of the security of the British bondholders. The line was part of the railroad recently trausferred by the Russians to Field Mar- shal von Waldersee, who re-transterred it| 10 the British. The necessities of the allles required the construction of a iding on one of the plots referred to and the presence of British | workers on the plot was treated as a tres- pass on Russian territory. It was alleged that the Russian boundary marks have been removed by the British. In those clrcumn- stances the government March 16 tel graphed to Its representative in China that | it thought the rights of the British or Rus- | slan troops to occupy the disputed pcints could be best settied by Field Marshal von Waldersee, as the commander-in-chief, and | neral Gaselee, the British commander, | was instructed (o request the field marshal y ulu to settle the immediate differcnces, re-| mnm_])‘rm‘!'f"l;m::o07«:-“!3“ p\r':: serving for future examination the ques- | { Ko borvpdhl kg g tion of the valldity of the alleged private | !€lous doctrine in Uganda, died at Mengo rights.

Quest of Natural Resources. (Copsright, 1%1, by Press Pubilshing Co.) LONDON, March 21—(New York World Cablegram—Special Telegram.)—Mr. Car- negie came up from Southampton today and took up quarters at the Langham hotel. Was the steel trust a surprise even to ycu?' the World reporter asked him. “I did not expect an opportunity to retire so soon,” Mr. Carnegie answered. “It came unsought.” In response to the reporter's questions, Mr. Carnegie continued: “I have no stock, | only bonds upon the properties at 5 per cent. There was not 1 cent of cash in the transfer. The trust needs no capital from | Europe. It has plenty. The trust will not | affect the United Kiogdom much obe way | | or another. The causes for apprehension here lie deeper than the forms of organiza- tion. It is & question of natural resources, the supply of coke and the capacity of work- men. “I think there is no fear whatever that the trust will slaughter the British steel trade, though the English manufacturers | will not benefit it America has abnormally cheaper steel, because she will also send | all the finished articles in steel.

It is plain that Meiklejohn's chance of | nomination in caucus is hopeless, aud that he is being kept in the lists ouly by the | representatives of certain railroad corpora- | tions bent upon preventing the election of any senators. The time for adjournment | being practically set, these people are | working to prolcng the deadiock till the end of next weck for the purpose of fore- ing the legislature to adjourn leaving both senatorships vacant What is left of | Melklejohn's following is being caretully sed to effect by indirection what these political schemers dare not openly advo- cate To keep him alive they are resorting to desperate methods, king a certain number of members and tying them up in | flocks not to leave him in caucus with only from fifty-four to fifty-six in the caucus and forty-five necessary to a nomination. Tying up a dozen men in this way com- pl Iy blocks action. By making the con- tinued balloting in caucus fruitless, the | object is to disgust participants and break { up the new caucus as they did the old one, It is certain no other caucus wor any plan an be secured during the present session Imported Lobbyist at Work, { Were it not for this outside interterence, | together with the questionable. character | of the campaign that has been carried on In thé interest of Mr. Meiklejohn, Nebraska would bave hal two republican senators long ago. It is & notorious fact that for twelve weeks a smooth Washington lobby- |1st, styling himselt as Colonel Deun trom Arkansas, has been occupying sump- tuous quarters in one of the Lincoln hota to which members bave been enticed and dazzied with prize packages in the shape of impossible appointments and promises of substantial reward to materialize in case of Meiklejohn's election.

To agree to adjourn Thursday {of next week, of course, means that tne real edjournment will not come until Sat- urday and more probably Sunday morning, the legislative day of Thursday being sure to be subjected to a policy of expansion by the usual trick of turning the clock back periodically. Those most familiar with the present lay of the land express confidence | that both the senators will be elected lLe- fore then. The prospect of certain ad- journment face to face with permanent vacancies in Nebraska's senatorial repre- sentation cannot fall to impress more and | more upon the republican members the necessity of ketting together and insuring to the party the full results of the hard- won victory of last fall.
