WARCLOUD LESS DARK
England and Germany Will
Probably Not Fight.
WILLIAM IS STILL UNPOPULAR
REPORTED BURNED IN EFFIGY
This Rumor Was Later Bald to Be
Without Foundation Russia
and France Side With
Germany.
London, Jan. 9. The chances of war
between Great Britain and Germany are
looked upon today as remote, there be
ing a decided tone of back down in the
utterances of the German press toward
Great Britain.
The Pall Mall Gazette says : "Steps
were taken in the highest quarters to ob
tain by family influence a full explana
tion from Emperor William, and the
communications which passed have done
more than anything to bring about a
change of tone .in the German official
press toward Great Britain. German
newspapers, official, semi-official and
hostile, are tumbling over one another
in their anxiety, to explan that the ten
sion of relations was the fault of Eng
land." The receipt of a dispatch from Pretor
ia, announcing tbe extreme demands of
the South African republic for the sur
render of all British rights and suzer
ainty, etc., over Transvaal and Delagoa
bay, however, has again changed tbe
complexion of affairs. Meantime there
is little or no abatement of the anti-German
feeling here. At a meeting ot the
London radical federation here today a
resolution was passed demanding the re
moval of Emperor William from the
British army and navy liste.
A baseless report that the officers of
the First Dragoons, in garrison at Dub
lin, of which Emperor William was
made honorary colonel by Queen Victor
ia, had burned his majesty in effigy, was
received with cheering. The colonel of
the First Dragoons this afternoon tele
graphed that there is no ground for this
story. It is said that before the receipt
of this official denial the German am
bassador, Count von Hatzfeldt Wilden
burg, made representations on the sub
ject to the Marquis of Salisbury, asking
to be informed as to the truth of the re
port. At the foreign office this afternoon the
dispatch saying that the Boers demand
ed the banishment of Mr. Rhodes from
Africa and the abandonment of the
rights of Great Britain regarding the
Transvaal and Delagoa bay were discred
ited on the grounds that Sir Hercules
Robinson, governor of Cape Colony, in
his dispatches to the colonial office made
no mention of any such demands or in
tentions. NO TRUTH IN IT.
Cecil Rhodes Not Furthering: Ells Own
Scheme In South America.
New York, Jan. 9. In .reply to a
cablegram of inquiry as to the stories
sent from London that Cecil Rhodes,
until lately premier of Cape Colony, had
started, or was about to start a move
ment for the organization of a vast inde
pendent republic in South Africa, the
World has received the following cable
gram from Cape Town.
"No truth in the report of the action
attributed to Mr. Rhodes."
The dispatches have already told of
Mr. Rhodes' resignation as premier, but
the office is filled by one of his lieuten
ants, and London continues to gossip
abont Mr. Rhodes' dictatorial attitude
and the possibilities of his making use
of it to separate South Africa from the
British empire.
Uphold Their Emperor
Berlin, Jan. 9. The reichstag reas
sembled today and proceeded to discuss
the bourse reform bill. Count von Kan
itz, the agrarian leader, in remarks on
the subject, referred to the Transvaal
dispute, saying the recent energetic at
titude of the imperial government in de
fense of the interests of the German
p3ople and German empire abroad met
with universal approval. The remark
was greeted with loud applause.
Russia Backs Germany.
London, Jan. 6. A special dispatch
from Berlin this afternoon says Russian
co-operation with Germany in the Trans
vaal matter has been assured, and France
will act with Russia. This apparently
tends to confirm the report of an anti
British alliance, and that the action o'
Emperor William towards the Boer re
public was a thoroughly weighed step.

Good Place for Toughs.
Tacoma, Jan. 9. The state supreme
court issued today a restraining order to
prevent the county judge, auditor clerk
and sheriff of Pierce county from calling
a jury to try criminal cases awaitiug
trial. The reason is that the county be
ing beyond the legal limit debt limit
cannot create new obligations. This
may result in a general jail delivery, as
the state law says the prisoners must be
tried within sixty days after filing infor
mation against them.
The popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and the high esteem in
which it Is helds leads us to believe it to
be an article of great worth and merit.
We have the pleasure of giving the ex
perience of three prominent citizens o!
Redondo Beach, Cal., in the use of tbe
remedy. Mr. A. V. Trudel! says: "I
have always received prompt relief when
I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy."
Mr. James Orchard says : "I am satis
fied that Chamberlain's Cough remedy
cured my cold.' Mr. J. M. Hatcher
says: '.'For- three years I have used
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in my
family and its results have always been
satisfactory." For sale by Blakeley &
Houghton, Druggist.

national banks announce that they will

bonds, or more if obtainable, at 3 per

$60,000 in gold in their vaults, and the
