Some time ago Greenhood's dry goods store on Shat- tuck avenue was entered and a quantity of valuable articles stolen. Suspicion for the deed fell upon Hartkop, and a war- rant was sworn out for his arrest. He was taken to the Alameda County Jail and brought before Judge Edgar this morning. The Judge released him on $200 bail. search of his room by Deputy Marshals Kerns and Parker = revealed many of the missing goods. E.

In this reply regret is expressed that the pro- posals of Great Britain are un- acceptable.

The reply agrees to a further conference regarding the franchise and. representa- tion. P U Y R R R e Y R e S R S S R g EW YORK, Spt. 6.—A Journal cable from London says: Ex- citement was caused at the War Office this evening by the re- | ceipt of a dispatch from Jo- | hannesburg indicating that General Joubert was laying plans to rush | troops into Laings Neck and Newcastle n advance of the British. A British spy sent the information, adding that the Boers were secretly massing troops near the points men- tioned and other places of strategic ‘anurmnro_ This startling information had the effect of quickening prepara- tions. This plan of the Boers had been | foreseen and was the subject of the generals’ counsel earlier in the day. | Gene Wolseley, Sir Evelyn Wood and Sir ers Buller held a confer- ence at War Office to-day on the Trans General Wood advo- cated occupation in strong | force of Newcastle and Laings Neck. | The places mentioned are of strategic importance, he urged, and it would be as well to take steps to as- | sure the prestige of British arms. other generals went into a long dis- cussion of the difficulties of transpor- |tation in the problem presented.

The request was granted at once, | Mr. de Young making the motion. Car rHages were also granted for those unable to march, and it was left to me to assign them a piace in the parade. T might relate further incidents were it necessary. There has been no unkind or carping criticism from any source except from the evening paper mentioned. I saw the proprietor of sald paper personally on Tuesday night and protested against the injustice of the statement he permit- ted to be printed, yet on the following day the paper willfully and maliciously r peated the misstatements in even more obnoxjous terms. At the meeting of the executive commi tee this morning 1 appeared before it and explained certain bills the Native Sons had submitted which had not been item- ized. My explanation was satisfactory, and all of the bills were ordered pald without any exception. It was explained to my perfect satisfaction that the com- handled can be accounted for, and not a dollar is pald out for which there s not an itemized bill accompanied by a voucher authorizing it. T also wish to say emphatically that at no time did the committee refuse to au- | dit the bills of the Native Sons and Na- tive Daughters, nor was it intimated that they might not be audited. The commit- tee merely requested that I or some other authorized representative appear before it and explain the nature of the unitemized bills, that proper entries might be made on the books of the committee. On behalf of the Native Sons and Native Daughters, in recognition of the assist- ance rendered to us, personally and finan- cially, T wish to thank the citizens’ execu- tive committee ana the morning papers, the Chronicle, Call and ixaminer, for their efforts, which were crowned with such unqualified success.
