ENGLAND AND
THE BOERS
Both Countries Waiting
an Opening".
London, Oct. 6. All reliable intel
licence from South Africa pc ids to a
continuation of the exiatiu? situation
- for some time, as both sides are appa
rently diffident about commencing an
attack, altbouzb from dispatches re
ceived here it seems aa if the move
ment of a patrol, and every cloud of
dust made by the herd of cattle, were
turned into a general advance by both
armies.
The delay tends for good, inasmuch
as it gives time for further negotia
tions, and today's indications ap
parently show a willingness on the
part of the British government to con
tinue to utilize diplomacy. A well de
fined conviction is prevalent that the
foreign office is trying to discover a
way out of the impasse which has been
created by the admitted mistakes and
miscalculations, and it is evi Jent that
the peace advocates and peace counsels
are gaining ground.
While the distaste for war evidently
increases in Great Britain, dispatches
from the scene of possible hostilities
grow more and more threatening. Ad
vices from Pretoria describe the Trans
vaal organs as crying for impossible
terms, and Presidant Kmger referring
to the prospective struggle as a means
of setting the republic "totally free of
England." it is also said, ucviuraii g
to advices from tbe same oii t, tbtt
the Boer forces at Voltcsrust will ad
vance today to the Natal border.
MURK SHIPS fOK WATSON.
The Manila Fleet Will be Strengthened by
sending- More vessels.
New Yobk, Oct. 6. A sieeial to
the Herald from Washington says:
The vessels which have thus far re
ceived orders for Manila are:
Armored cruiser Brooklyn, en route
to Hampton Roads, preceeded to New
York for repairs and fitting out and
changes in personnel.
. Protected cruiser New Orleans, en
route to Hampton Roads, proceeded to
New York for repairs and changes in
personnel.
Gunboat Nashville, now at Santo
Domingo; proceed to Manila without
delay yia Suez canal, and stopping at
San Juan for coal and needed repairs.
,' Auxiliary cruiser Badger, now at
f UsnriFtHncr; "prepare for orders to pro-4-
ceed to Manila.
Tbe other vessels which will be bod.
to Manila are the protected cruiser
Albany and the gunboats Marietta,
Machias and Bancroft. Of these the
Albany is now being completed in
England. Her officers and crew will
be sent about January 1, and she will
proceed at once to Manila. The Mari
etta is now at Washington under
orders to proceed to the mouth of tbe
Orinoco. She will probably carry out
orders, returning when relieved to
prepare to join Admiral Watson.
JOHN HAYS HAMMOND TALKS.
Thinks That Great Britain Will Win Aftel
fehort W ar.
New Yobk, Oct. 6. A dispatch to
the Tribune from Paris says: John
Hays Hammond, the American civil
engineer, connected with leading
South African mining companies, who
returned from tbe Cape two months
ago, after a brief holiday in the Tyrol
is now passing a few days In Paris.
The appreciations of the situation in
the Transvaal expressed by Mr. Ham
mond in conversation with the Tribune
correspondent are' of interest as shoe
ing how a war with tbe Boers is re
garded by an observant representative
American, enjoying tbe advantage of
unsurpassed knowledge of the facts,
enabling him thereby to grasp the
situation. As to the justice of the war
Mr. Hammoud did not wish to express
an opinion, but when asked whether
the war would be a lODgora short one,
he said:
"It will be a short war, ending with
the capture of Pretoria, a'ber which
the Boers will recognized tbe futility
of futher fighting. Tbe Boers today
aro not as formidable fighters as they
were 15 years ago. For example, their
former enormous advantage in marks
manship over the British troops no
longer exists, because, game having to
a great extent disappeared, tbe Boers
have no experience in shooting at a
moving object. A few old doppers are
still good shots, but they are fast dying
out.
Harrow escape of a Trader.
Vancouver, B. C. Oct. 6. Dr.
Vaughan, an American, who has
worked up a large trade among the
people of New Guinea, i arrowly es
caped being caught by a native a few
weeks ago. Tbe news of his experience
has been brought here by the steamer
" Aoraogi.
Early in September Vaughan, with
several men, went on a trading and
scientific trip up the Musa river, and
inadvetently came into an unfriendly
territory, a district very rich in pecu
liar natural features, and were com
pelled to retreat hastily to their launch.
In the middle of the river their mach
inery broke down and tbe boat drifted
helpless with the current. The
natives ran along tbe shore hurling
spears at those iu the craft, while
Others followed la war canoes. Several
of the men were wounded, but a suit
was rigged up and tbe laiiuch got out
of reach of the savages.

SHOW SIGNS
OF WEAKENING
Boers Said to be Return
ing to Their Homes.
London, Oct, 8. Mo't important
news comes, from tbe Irancvaal
whicb, if true, probably indicates that
tbe South African Republic is about to
yield, or in any case, that the Boers
bave abandoned all ideas of invading
Natal. The news . is comprised in a
cablegram from Newcastle, Natal
whicb nays that the farmers that ar
rived there from tbe Buffalo river
state that the Boers are returning to
their homes; leaving patrols along tbe
river. The commanders still remain
on the free state border. Tbe dispatch
also says that the Boers do not intend
to attack that place, p ud that the
evacuation of the town was premature.
A dispatch from Durban also states
that the exitement tbere has abated,
owing to the Boers holding back from
tbe frontier.
This retirement of the Boers is what
the British authorities have expected,
as their defective commissariat would
prevent them from long remaining
massed along the border. Telegrams
received here lately bave made fre
quent reference to the sagacity of for
age and supplies in tr-e Boer laagers,
and havtj slate.1 that many of those in
the companies were inclined to strike
out for their liom s, unless acti reoper
ations were unde:rak-in imiiiedialely. I
The dispatch from Newcastle looks as
if tbey had done as threatened, and
had abandoned the Idea of fighting,
.Veanwbile further transports from
(Ha, with two field hospitals and hus
sars, bave trrived at Durban, and tbe
men and material were forwarded to
Cadysmitb instantly. General Sir
George Stewart White, V. C., who
willicomrnand the British forces in
Natal, has also arrived and landed.
He was greeted by a large crowd.
General Sir William" Tyroons, his
second in command, came from Glen
coe to meet him, showing that he does
not fear a Boer incursion into North
Natal. A number of other officers
were present, and the whole party left
by train for Pietersmaritzburg, amid
great excitement and cries of "Remem
ber Majuba."
AUCINALDO QUOTES ATKINSON. '
Be Believes the Filipinos Will Yet Get
Their Bights.
- - Manila. Oct. -8. Agninaldo,4n - a
proclumalton announcing tbe release
of American prisoners, and authoriz
ing Filipino soldiers in the northern
province to return to their home says:
"In America there is a great party
that insists that the government re
cognize Filipino indepentence. Tbat
party will compel tbe United States to
fulfill the promises made to us in all
solemnity and good faith, though not
put into writing.
"Therefore we must show our grati
tude and maintain our position more
resolutely than ever. We should pray
to God that the great democratic party
may win the next presidential election
and imperialism fail in its mad attempt
to bubjugate us by force of arms.
There are some Americans in the Phil
ippines who have joined us because
they disapprove a war of what Mr.
Atkinson calls criminal aggression.
When offered a chauce to return to
their own camp, they declined."
Throughout the proclamation, the
"imperialists"instead of "Americans,"
are called enemies. He calls tbe
world to witness that the Filipinos
have not broken "the alliance made
through Admiral Dewey with the
Americans and with the American
consuls at Hong Kong and Singapore."
Tbe people, on seeing the American
prisoners, cried out: " We do not wan t
war against the Uuited States; we only
defend our independence against tbe
imperialists. The sons of that migbty
nation are our friends "

A HAVANA PAPER'S VIEWS.
Thinks Ametratn Breeept tbe Salvation of
' Cuba.
Havana, Oct. 9. El Epoca says:
"Contact with a race which does, r ot
tolerate the shirk of daily labor, and
among which, before everything, a
man is the legitimate child of his own
merits and his own deed, must be to us
a powerful stimulus for discarding once
and forever tbe accumulation of habits
which constltued the unfortunate in
heritance of a regime based upon the
explotltation of the negro by the white,
and of the native-born white by the
peninsula white, and all by the gov
erned. The sanitaMon of our cities by
American methods has been productive
of untold benefits, and who is capable
of calculating the benefits which will
be obtained by tbe cleansing of our
conscience.-'
Regarding the remerksof Senor Col
lazo about tbe Cubans pulverizing an
Europe power, the Epoca says: "If 40
years hence we shall all be willing to
confess tbat, while we were able to
gain victories over hunger, thirst,
weariness and the rigors of climate, to
the American army and navy is due
the victory over the Spanish, why not
be honest and confess it now?"

San Francisco. Oct. 9. The trans
port Pennsylvania, bearing the Wash

short distance outside the Golden Gate.
Tbe Pennsylvania carries 42 officers
and 776 enlisted men of the Washing
ton volunteers; two officers 34 dis
charged men, three men of the hospital
corps, and seven civilians.
As soon as word was received that
tbe Pennsylyania bad been sighted,
three parties, composed of Governor
Rogers and staff, of Washington; a
delegation of Washington people and
a party of San Francisco people.
boarded the tugs Governor Markham,
Governor Irwin and the steamer Caro
line, and started for the Golden Gate,
to intercept the transport as she passed
passed down the Bay to the quarantine
station.
As soon as the transport was made
out through the heavy haze hanging
over the ocean, a lively fusilade of
steam whistles and calliopes was
started, and continued duriugthe pass
age of tbe transport down the bay.
Out on the bay, the three welcoming
craft presented a fine appearence, gaily
decorated, as tbey sped along to meet
the steamer. The soldiers crowded
the decks and the riggings of the trans
port, and as the steamer drew near a
miehty hurrah floated out on the air.
Governor Rogers was cheered to the
echo, as were the other Washington
ians and tbe Californians. Messages
were shouted through megaphones,
and the greatest excitement prevailed
anionic the soldiers. The transport
was headed for the quarantine station,
and was followed by the Markham,
Irwin and Caroline, but were not al
lowed to go very close to the Pennsyl
vania until an examination of tbe trans
port's passengers was made by the
health officers.
