He says: “When Lord Roberts is ready for the advance a new complexion will be put on the campaign. There will be a strategical jdea, and as this idea gradually reveals itself, what seemed an inextricable tangle of difficulties will we present itself as a comparatively e problem.” The correspondent of the Times at Lou- renzo Mirquez, telegraphing on Saturday, again comments upon “the facility with which foreign mercenaries get through.” This, in his opinion, suggests the exist- ence of “an effective local organization enjoying the co-operation of the Portu- guese officials.” He says: “In face of the experiences of the last few days it is hopeless to expect the exercise of any but the most per- functory control of the rush toward the The Capetown correspondent of the | | night to express sympathy for the Boers in their war with Great Britain.

BALTIMORE, Feb, 4.—Nearly 2000 per- =ons attended an_enthusiastic pro-Boer mass-meeting in Ford’s Opera-house to- night. The principal speakers were Con- ressmen Sulzer of New York, Rhea of entucky, Lentz of Ohio and De Armond | of Migsouri and Senator Allen of Nebras- | ka. Several hundred dollars were raised for the Boer relief fund. Congressman | Sulzer of New York was permanent chair- | man of the meeting. Almost the first ut- terance of the New Yorker set the audi- ence on fire, and several times during the course of his remarks he was interrupted for five minutes at a time with the shouts and huzzahs of the audience. Said he: I hope that this bloody and unjust conflict will end in the marauding British being driven from the Transvaal and the ultimate instity- tion of the United States of South Africa. This is @ war as unholy as any war ever waged. Jt is & crying word and a crime in the face ot the ecivilized world. We want this country to show her colors.

Miss Gonne dld not con- fine her remarks against the present war with the Boers, but in no uncertain tones told her hearers that it was the time for the Irishmen to strike an effective blow and throw off the shackles that have bound them for more than 700 years. “England’s difficult; eland’s oppor- tunity, and if you are nl:l;n ?:;vln; t)r. om of Ireland at heart now is your time,” she declared 3 alu crowd cheered itself hoarse. said ““One of the crimes the s rra ot | out that'he was no longer c delezated to help in securing the desired B S e e S S N S S S S S rifies using smokeless powder the defense army. condition of warfare. | corps of Australlans and New Zealanders are quite able now to cope with the Boers. | Our infantry, when moving Into hction, now instinctivel, | slon caused in | verses has not reached the camps, where “the following from Paris: ported in diplomatic quarters that Sir Ed- mund Monson, the British Embassador to grounds for this, it is alleged, will be that Queen Victoria drawn by Artist Leandre. the boulevards, and Leandre has been suspension day in the House, but the reg- o broliht want, woe and desolation o the unoffending w] ltfe races in South Africa.” MACRUM REFUSES TO ANSWER QUESTIONS NEW YORK, Feb. 4—Charles E.
