W. J. Leyd. h Transvaal aecertary of state, the em peror of Germany Informed him he would not recognise any claim of suierainiy over t that South African repuKle; th young emperor has sounded another defiance In l be eara of England which I far more significant and alarming than hi con gratulatory dispatch to President Krugr after th defeat of Jameson. The latter might be excused upon th ground ot youthful and Impulsive enthusiasm over a victory achieved by his second-hand cousin, the Boer; but th declaration to Dr. Leyds assails a treaty stipulation between England aud the Transvaal, and j a such la well nigh tantamount to an J act of war. I The Statesman- Tear Book briefly gives the history of the organisation of th Transvaal Republic. It wa formed ' by the Boers who left th Cap Colony I In 1SJ5 for Natal, and Quitted the latter j coiony -neu " a. o I BrKaln. In 1!S3 the British government recognised the Independence of the Trans vaal. In 1S7T. however, England annexed th Transvaal, against which In lfSU the Boer took up arms. They defeated the English at Matabele, and a treaty of peace was signed JR 1&; h- which the republic was granted autonomy so far aai Internal affair are concerned, but the control of It foreign affair was reserved by the British government a suseraln, and a British resident wa appointed. Another convention was signed by the BritUb government in 1SS4 by which th Transvaal was recognised a "the South African Republic." and th British suser ainty was considerably restricted. In stead of a resident the government I now represented by a diplomatic agent. Hence under the treaty England re tain auxeralnty or protectorate, though in a restricted sense, over th Transvaal, and this suzerainty, though fixed by treaty, the emperor of Germany refuses to recognise. If this report be correct, then Dr. Jameson, by his foolhardy fili bustering, which ended so disastrously to himself, may have lighted the flames of a European war, for If England and Germany fall out no one can prophesy what the result may be as affecting the other powers THE ALASKA BOIXDART. I The Alaska boundary question seems I to be clearing up. Despite the '.mfavor able opinkn expressed here and there, the report of the surveyors, so far as it has been made known, simplifies matters and Improves the prospect of a speedy .nd equltahie settlement. Concerning the northern half of the line there Is, of course, no dispute. Both parties agree that it follow a certain meridian of longitude, and all that Is necessary Is to ascertain that meridian by scientific means and set up a row of posts along it. The only question U concerning the southern half of the line, along th east ern edge of the "panhandle." It Is with .... . - . that tnat tne survevors nave nsu w, . to ao.' Apart from the question whether the southern extremity of the line should fol - low Portland channel, according to the eld Russo-Brltl.ih treaty, or llehm chan nel, according to modern Hritish "onten tlons, the location of the boundary de pended upon whether or not there was a well-defined mountain range running parallel to and not more than ten marine leagues from the coast If so, that ridge must be the boundary. The British Idea' has been that such a ridge exists, and there have been rumors that the British surveyors expected to demonstrate Its eg' Istonce. Apparently they have not done i so. but on the contrary have reported that there is no such ridge. If so, there I is Just one alternative. The line must , 1 drawn parallel to the coast, In all lis windings, and ten marine leagues from it Inland. That Is the task now before the two governments. It Is one to be performed mathematically, by civil engineers. Ilu before that there will be some diplomatic discussion as to the meaning of terms. Does the "coast" mean the edge it the mainland, or the outer tige of the fringe of Islands? Do th "winding, of the I coast" include all the bays and inlets, or 1. the coastline to be drawn boldly across j Important to Amsrtean weestlng Entr from headland to headland? l'pim the sh OapMai for new enterprisjes.
