The retérence to tho Boers acknowledging King Edward their soverelgn made the hit of the day.

From this it appears that Geperal Bchalkburger, acting presi- dent of the Tramevaal, Informed Lord Kitchener March 12 that he was prepared to make peace proposals. A month later the Boers' delegates submitted proposi- tions. On April 13 the war secretary, Mr. Broderick, refused to entertain amy propo- sition based on the independence of the republics. ; Subsequently President Steyd of the Orange Free State and Generals Schalk- burger and Botha declared that the sur- render of Independence must be submitted to the burghers in the fleld. The British government expressed surprise at this at- titude, but announced its willlugness to ac- cept the Boe: surrender on the same terms that Lord Kitchener had previously offerod General Botha and to give facill- ties for a consultation of the Boer com- mander. On Moy 17 General Schalkburger and Mr. Steyn informed Lord Kitchener that the Boers assembled .at Vereeniging had em. powered a commission to negotiate pes terms, subjeot to ratification at Vereenlg- ing. from Berlin and Ofters to Surrender. Lord Milner and ‘the Boer commission met May 19. The latter offered to sur- render the independefice of the republics regards foreign relatio to surrender part of thelr territory and retaln self-gov- ernment under British supervision.

AMSTERDAM, June 3.—Since the news was received here that peace had been con- cluded in South Africa Mr. Kruger has declined to recelve visitors or express an opinion on the subject. The other Boer delegates here are disappointed at the out- come and are not inclined to discuss the matter. The Dutch newspapers declare that Great Britaln will gain nothing from ‘“‘this un- just war” and that her dificulties in South Africa are now begloning. The papers gen- erally express admiration for the courage of the Boers and regret that the sacrifices have proved to be in valn. THE HAGUE, June 2.—The news of the conclusion of peace In Bouth Africa wi recelved here with very mixed feelings. While there is general satisfaction that the war is ended, unvarying regret is ex- pressed at the loss of Boer independence. The Boer delegates here are in a particu- larly trying position. It has been learned upon good authority that the British gov- ernment at the last moment refused to al- low the Boers in South Africa to com- municate with their leaders in Europe, thus the delegates on the continent were entirely shut out of the negotiations and were ignorant even of the terms of sur- render, except as they learned of them through the newapapers. referring to the news , sald: ““The delegates made a great mistake in not complying with the ardent wish of the Duteh government at the time of the over- tures made by Dr. Kuyper, the premier, which was that they apply for safe con- ducts to South Afric SYMPATHY FOR THE BOERS Germany Glad War is Over and Praises Valor of the Sounth Africans, BERLIN, June 2.~The business classes in Germany are glad the war in South Africa 1s over and expect to share in the new impulse to the business of the world resulting from the revival of the financial confidence in London.

The last message of Lord Milner to Mr. Chamberlain, June 1, after the signature of the peace agreement, mentions that Mr. Steyn's name was omitted from the signa- tures because he was too ill to come up to Pretoria, adding that he had already taken his parole.

If overnment s suppressed South Africa will be thrown fnto a struggle infinitely more dangerous for British supremacy than was the war Just ended. The re-establishment of the constitution means surrender iuto the bands of the Afrikander: The Journal des Debats, alluding to Lord Kitchener's expression of surrender, says: In reality the Boers' scceptance of Eng- land’s conditions Is only because the lat- ter advanced wuch eonditions as the Boers d“ll!ld they were reAdy to accept.

Gene WABHINGTON, Ju held at the White House tonight And attended by leading republicans of both houses, the president inviting them to attend. There were present Senators Alllson, Aldrich, Hanna, Payne of Con- necticut and Spoomer, Representatives Payne, Cannon, Dalzell, Babecock, Hull, Sherman and Overstreet and Postmaster General Payne. Those present imcluded members of the finance committee of the senate, the ways and means committee of the house and of the republican congres- sional committee. The subjects under discussion were pend- lation and its relation to the com- paign. ‘The chief reason for the asséemblage was the tariff, the discussion turning on the ad- visability of attempting any revision now or taking up the matter in committee dur- ing the recese of congress with a view of presenting a measure in the short session. All of thosd present were opposed to tarift revision now or at the short session, the view being expressed that revision was not neccessary and that furthermore there was no time for it. The opinlon prevalled at the conference thet any movement In the direction of changes in the tariff schedules would dis- turb busin conditions and complicate the coming campaig Sug wi ons of Reviston, Suggestions as to tariff revision have been made to the preaident by republican opponents of reciprocity with Cuba, these congressmen representing that to change the tarift on one product like sugar, af- fecting the beet sugar Interests only with- out making change in other schedules, would have a dlsastrous effect In their states. Some members representing sugar states who have seen the president recently told him they were willing to have a tar. Ift revision, but were unwilling to have a change on one article only, as would be the practical effect of the proposed Cuban The members of the campaign committee present concurred In the bellef that no tar- Iff revision was necessary and that it would be harmful. The representatives left the conference some time before the senators and then with the latter the president discussed In detall theoutlook for Cuban reciproeity and especially the stand taken by the confer- ence of senators which met in Senator El- kins’ room today. The sénators expressed the opinion that the plan which the Elkins' conference offers as a compromise will not meet the requirements of the situa- tion. Efforts for Union. Continued efforts will be made to unite the republicans of the senate on the Spooner plan for a 20 per cent reduction for five years, with power given to the president to annul the concession if it be found that it goes to any persons other than the Cuhn sugar growers and pros Aucers. It w: -nv.d st the White. House tonight that all of the men who attended the con- ference a the capitol today will’not stand out agains this plan, especislly if -a . .re- publican caucus endo it Senators Proctor, Nelson, Gamble and Kittredge called at the White House this forenoon on an invitation and had a con- ference with the president in regard to the same matters. The president assured the republicans that in urging action on reciprocity he wi carrying out the announcement of Pres dent McKinley uttered in his speech, which had met with such popular approval throughout the country, also the promises that had been made concerning concessions to Cuba. Effect of Platt Amendment, The president indicated that the adop- tion of the Platt drent made it ob- ligatory upon the United States to treat Cuba differently from other nations. In one casual remark he sald that events m (how that it would have been better to allow Cuba to be absolutely {indes pendent, as was Mexico. He told these republican senators that the party ought not to be divis on tariff ues as it ring the campaign, and he ex- pressed the hope that a Cuban bill would be passed without the ald of democratic vote One result of the conferences held at the White House was a meeting today at 1 o'clock in the committee room of Senator El- kins, where those senators who are op- posed to granting concessions to Cuba, or who oppose the stralght reduction plan of the majority, assembled to consider differ- ent propositiol These are for a flat appropriation to the Cuban treasury, or & rebat¢ on duties col- lected on Cuban imports to be paid iato the Cuban (reasufy.

Senator Pritchard did not go farther than to say that he was opposed to the Cuban concession, but would ablde by & republican caucus. It was stated that the senators in the conference were. opposed to y tarift changes, especially of the plecemeal char- scter, but that if any chasges were to be made they thought that the whole tarift should be revised. It was determined that the utmost con- cession to be granted should be in the way of a rebate turned over to the Cuban treas- ury to be disposed of as the Cuban gov+ ernment thought desirable. This rebate, to be either 20, 25 or 30 per cent of the duties collected on Ouban products, it was stated, was offered eimply &s & compromise by those who were opposed to Cubsn con- casslons.

MASON PLEADS FOR FILIPINOS m Senator Objects to His Party's Polley in the Philippine i WASHINGTON, June 2.-—Little interest either on the floor or in the galleries, wi manifested in the senate debate on Philippine government bill today under the fiftéen-minute rule. At two or three stages it almost died of Inanition. Mr. Mason of Illinols, in a vigorous speech, differed from the majority in the treatment proposed for the Filipinos. He argued that no reason existed for accord- iog to them a treatment different from that accorded to the Cubans, and strongly advised that they be afforded the right to vern themselves. He sald he would not have voted for the Parls treaty but for the open understanding among senmators that the Fllipinos were to be given thelr Inde- pendence ae soon as they were ready for it. Other senators who spoke were Messrs. Hoar, Foraker, Cullom, Baker, Patterson, Teller, Carmack and Proctor. Early In the sesslon some amandments were made to the bill by the Philippine commission, the most important of which related to the disposition of the public lands in the lsl- ands. General debate on the Philippines gov- ernment bill having been concluded, the senate convened at 11 o'clock today, the arrangement being that the debate on the bill should proce: under the fifteen-min- uate rule. Mr. Lodge, In charge of the bill, offered several amendments, priucipally of a verlal nature, to the bill. Onpe of the most im. an amendment strikicg out the Nor more than 5,000 acres to any soclation of persons,” relating to the dis- position of public lanls, and inserting a provision that “‘no such land shall e leased, lat or devised to any corporation until a law regulating the dispos‘tion of the public lands all have been enacted and ap- proved.’ Another amendment provided that bere- fter no corporation should be authorized to eng: in agriculture until provision should be made therefor. An additional amendment provided that the laws relating to entry, clearance and anife of steamships and other vessels arriving from and proceeding to foreign ports shall apply to voyages each between the Philippine archipelago and the United Btates and the aforesald possessions thereof and all laws relating to the collection and protection of customs duties not inconsels- tent with the Philippine revenue acts shall apply In the case of vesséls and its afore- 1d possessions.” The provision relating to franchises was amended so as to prohibit corporations trom employing persons beld in slavery or Involuntary servitude. A new section was added to the bill providing that the treasury of the Philip- pine government shall be a depository for such public moneys the secretary of tne treasury may direct. Mr. Mason of Illinols made a epeech early in the fon, In which he took stron grounds agalnst the general policy of the United States in the Philippines. His speech Wi listened to with Ipterest on both sides of the chamber. He mentioned the great cost of carrying on the war and of 1ts little value to the United States. He would not have voted for the peace treaty but for the open and notorious un- dersanding among senators that there was to be a vote on the resolution to give the Filipinos self-government. This would have prevented the war. “Why not try it?" he asked. He declared no harm could come from the attempt. Mr. on sald this republic w: enough to be independent of nations might say if we should compromise with these poor struggling people. He asked why one plan should be adopted for Cuba and another for the . Philippin The Philippine lesson was not without its good, for when we attempt to govern people with- out their consent the charnel house will rise before the people for their good. Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts sald he charged the outrages committed in the Philippines upon imperialism. He spoke of what the “‘miserable doctrine of buying sov- erelgnty with gold” bad cost.

Unanimous consent for the consideration of this resolutien was objected to by Mr. De Armond of Mis- sours sope time ago, and today Mr. Clark of Missouri made a twenty-minute speech in opposition to it on the ground that Mr. Hay had abused the occasion by inject- Ing a ‘“republican stump speech” into the addrese. General Hooker of Misslesippl, armed confederate veteran, eloquent defense of Mr. Hay's addrees, de- nying that it contained anything objec- tionable from a political standpoint Mr. irosvenor of Ohlo, who was in charge of the reslution, argued that Mr. Hay, in enloglzing the. martyred president, could not divorce the man from his achleve- pients and his record as a manly partisan. Only forty-six democrats voted against the resolution. Speclal orders were adopted for the con- sideration of the antl-anarchy bill and the bill to transfer certAin forest reserves to the Agricultural department. The senate Bill to retire Surgeon Sternberg and ‘the house bill to encourage salmon culture in Alaska were defeated on motions to pass them under suspension of the rules. Light on Hritish Camp Affair. Mr. Hitt of Hlinois, chairman of the committee on foreign affairs, from bis com- mittee presented a resolution calling upon the president, it not incompatible with pub- lic interests, for full information concern- ing the investigation of ‘the British supply camp in Loulsiapa, made under his au- thority. The resolution was a substitute for that {ntroduced by Mr, Cochran of Mis« sourl, In substantlally the same terms ex- cept that it eliminated the call for the re- port of the officer who made the investl- gation.
