'The manner ini which they refer all applicants for information to James Speyer significs that the Speyers are the ents. The Call that had become strained. The members, he said, were aware of the meeting of Sir Alfred Milner and President Kruger at Bloemfontein when President Kru- ger made proposals, which, although refused by the British commissioner were unanimously considered through- | out the Orange Free State to be ex- ceedingly fair. Proceeding to review the negotiations President Steyn said the Transvaal had been decoyed by the British diplomatic agent at Pretoria, Conyngham Greene, and he ‘practically accused the impe- rial Government of a breach of faith. He said he was disinclined to advi the Transvaal Government to -accept the latest British demands. The.pr ent critical state of affairs could not be a matter of indifference to the Orange Free State, which was bound by treaty ences as exist can be solved by arbitra- tion. War would be an insult to re- ligion and civiliZation.” In conclusion President he would take this opportunity of lay- ing certain draft laws before the Volks raad for consideration, praying God to give the members strength to pass reso- lutions not only conducive to peaee and prosperity, but also in the interest of their beloved State. Immedlately after the speech Presi- dent Steyn asked the Volksraad to go into secret sesslon, which was agreed to unanimously. LONDON, ' Sept. 21.—While the pre- cise result of the secret session of the Raad of the Orange Free State is not yet known here, President speech at the opening of the se regarded as an almost infallible indi | cation of the attitude which the Free | State will take. Commenting from this paint of view, the London morning papers are all hin- | assertion that Great Britain could not to afford assistance to_the Transvaal | and he had, therefore, convened the Volksraad to decide what attitude should be taken. “There is nothing,” declared the President, “that warrants war or an attack on the Transvaal. Such differ- | Steyn said | | | | | | pressed with the added gravity of the ! gituation and murmurs are beginning to be heard regarding the dilatoriness ' of the Government in getting forward. The military men are said to be impatient. They assert that every- thing is ready and that they are only waiting for orders. It is recognized that the attitude of the Orange Free State makes the orig- inal estimates based upon Dutch neu- trality too small. Evidently a much larger force will be required. The Government is faced with some- | ¢ thing like a dilemma. The leader of the opposition has publicly denounced the precipitancy of the Colonial Office in forcing on a conflict. Therefore Min- isters are disinclined "to convoke Par- liament. If, on the other hand. so large an_expenditure as the apparent atti- | tude of the Orange Free State would involve should become necessary. the Government would be obliged to sum- mon Parliament in order to get ade- quate supplles. It is understood that the money question accounts for the ! dribbling manner in which the troops are being forwarded. German military experts realizing the | serfousness of the campaign before Great Britain are commenting with as- | tonishment upon the fact that England | is so behind hand in her preparations. In Berlin it is also believed that Dr. Leyds is acting as President Kruger's evil genius and that he is leading him by reports that he is likely to get sym- pathy, If not assistance, from some of the European powers. No member of the Cape Cabinet was present at the meeting of the Afrikan- der members of the Cape Parliament yesterday. & A dispatch from Pretoria announces that arms continue to be served to the burghers.
