THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6. 1895, BOERS ARE PREPARING FOR A CONFLICT WITH GREAT BRITAIN Threatened Hostilities the Cause of a Great Exodus. View of Pretoria, Capital of the South African Republic. NESBURG, t. 5.—Public xiety shows no abatement as the exodus of the population continues. The staffs of several large financial houses are leaving to-night with their books for Cape Town. At a public meet- ing held at Bol urg the field cornet guaranteed the safety of all the residents of the district. He annc unced that the natives would be transported immediately upon a declaration of war, in trucks that were waiting at every railway station, and he advised families to group themselves, and that superintendents be appointed to take charge of each group. PRETORIA, Sept ad to-day accepted Mr. Coester’s motion to fix the debates to grow out of the interpellation of the Gov assembling of British troops along the Transvaal borders for Thursday next. In presenting his motion Mr. Coester referred to the Jameson raid and other oatrages and niurders “‘committed by British troops him to distrust the present concentration. He declared that the convention of 1584 did not contafh the suz ipulation, and he maintained that Chamberlain had brokén that convention by in- terfering in the interr the republic. Other Burgh upported Mr. Coester, saying that while ne- gotiations were proceedingz British colonies were offering armed assistance. “And must the Transvaal remain silent,” exclaimed the Burgher. “It is opposed to Christianity to conduct friendly negotiations and yet mobolize the troop: ‘We must know why the The motion to wait until Thursday for the Gov- ernmer as le: British troops are on our borde CAPE TOW! nts are being cc )leted for safeguarding the telegraphic communication with the Cape In « at Britain and the Transvaal.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—The officials of the State Department have been much ed in the remarkable story of the Bentheim, at Atlanta of his con- nection with the German secret service. The point in his narrative that particu- larly attracts attention at this time is the allegation that the deputy and Vice Con- sul at Sonneberg has been serving as a | German agent to convey secrets relative to war material stolen from the French Government and that the official has used the United States consulate and the ofti- cial letterheads and envelopes of the con- | sulate to further his ends. The records of the department show that Alvin Florschultz was appointed vice | and deputy United States Consul at Son- neberg in 1888, He had been connected | with the banking business in the town and resigned the place of cashier of one of the largest banks to accept the po- sition in the consulate. When the con- | sulate was removed from Sonneberg to | Coblenz, Florschultz went along. He has given satisfaction at every point and has | frequently discharged the duties of Con- sul during the absence of that official. | He still holds his place. Inquiry made into the accuracy of the detalled state- ments made by Hentheim appears to con- firm most of them. His claim that he was a soldier in the Two Hundred and Second New York Regiment and dis- charged in Washington is borne out by the War Department records. Notwith- standing this the officlals of the State Department discredit Bentheim’'s state- | ments, though now that they have been given such publicity it may be found ex- pedient to quietly investigate the matter. The German embassy treats the Ben- theim story lightly and while the officials say there are a number of circumstances referring to his alleged employment in the milltary’ service at Berlin which are in- consistent with the established system there, yet they, will not dignify the story by going Into details. : : Sculptor Trentanove, who is mentioned as the one who will be visited by Ben- thelm in Washington, has gone abroad. DENVER, Colo., Sept. 5.—"'T never knew Charles E. Bentheim,” said Wolfe Lon- doner to-day, referring to the man now at Atlanta, who ..as revealed the al- leged methods by which state secrets were transmitted from France to Ger- many. and who said that he was born in Denver thirty-six years ago. *T think it is a fake name,” said Mr. Londoner, “for there were not' many people here in 1863, and I would have known his father if he had really been born here.” John Martin, the commission man, who has lived in Denver since the first house was bullt, could remember no such name.

PASADENA, Sept. 5.—Captain John 8. Godfrey, renowned nationally and locally as the ‘‘water wizard,” died of heart failure at 2:30 o’clock this morn- ing at his home on North Marengo avenue, aged 72 years.

Captain- Godfrey walked around it and located the leak. A shaft was sunk 140 feet and a narrow stream of water was struck. just where the captain said it would be found. Four years ago President Painter drove in from Monrovia, ten miles west of town. Captain Godfrey waiked through the flelds near the road and de- clared that an underground stream existed at a certaln place under foot. <« The place was in a dry arroyo. -Averiil had sufficient confidence in the ca tain’s magic to expend $30,000 to find the stream and develop it with an elec tric plant. The result is that he ncw has many more inches of flowing water than has the entire town of Mcnrovia. There are thirty other wells, several of them pumping water by mea of electric plants, that were located by the now dead wizard. One of thes was purchased by Millionaire J. W. Hugus of Altadena. A neighbor thought to cut off Hugus' supply by digging a well above. Captain Godfrey laughed and said that the underground current 19 feet below the surface branched just above the Hugus well and that the proposed well would prove a failure. lower than the words ‘‘Welcome C.

The effect of the location of the boundary line as fixed by the Secre- | tary and practically agreed to hy Great Britain will be that the entirs Lynn Canal will be under American control and that Canada will not, under the temporary | agreement, have a port on that water- | way. | The question of the Canadian port on | the Lynn Canal will be left to the nego- tiations for the permanent settlement of | the dispute. It was reported to-day that the mogus vivendi would end in vem- | ber, 1900, but this was specifically denied | and it seems that so far as the negotia- tions have now gone there is no date fixed | for the termination of the agreement. The temporary line will cease to exist, of course, when the permanent line is agreed upon. The object of the temporary line, as has been stated, is to determine the points where the customs houses of the United States and the Dominion shall be established and the territory which | shall be patrolled by the police of the | respective countries. The location of a | line will naturally result in preventing | conflict between Canadians and Ameri- | ous aspect to the dispute. The hiyéh joint | commission will have nothing to do with the Alaska boundary question, though the American members will undoubtedly con- sult with Secretary Hay. It seems to be understood that the commission will not | re-assemble until the boundary contro- | versy is disposed of, as the British Gov- | ernment in the past has indicated that the boundary dispute must be settled be- fore the remaining questions can be ad- Justed. CALIFORNIA PRODUCTS FOR THE PARIS FAIR State Commission Making Splendid Progress in Collecting the Exhibits. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5.—The California Paris Fair Commission is making - com- mendable strides in endeavoring to collect | material for the display to be made next year by this State at the ‘great exposi- | tlon. Secretary Wiggins received orders from the commission to arrange twenty- five jars of fruit for the exposition proper. These are now being prepared. They comprise pears, peaches, watermelon, apricots, etc., in their natural colors, slightly heightened by the prepared liquor St muf' be possible these twenty-five jars will be placed on exhibition in the Chamber of Commerce before they are shipped to their destination. The chamber has been au- thorized to collect samples of ornamental woods that abound in this section. The State commissicn requests that all exhibits reach San Francisco by Septem- ber 15. Secretary Wiggins says this will be impossibl2, as only the wine, cereals and a few samples of dried fruits will be in readiness at that time. 'The southern portion of California is doing its full duty toward enhancing this foreign exhibit. Secretary Wiggins to-day reports that C. H. Clayton of Lang and J. H.
