CHAMBERLAIN ON THE TRANSVAAL,

Government Fo Forced Into.

Present Position,

‘OWING TO THE ‘tREATMENT RECEIVED FROM THE BOERS

ae

Speech By the Colonial Secretary at

B irmingham.,

[Srectat tre THe Examiner, ]

BikMincuam, June 27.—Joseph Cham- berlain, Secretary of the Colonies, address~ ing the Unionists of this city last evening reviewed carefully the Transvaal ques- tion.

In the course of hia specch he said that Owing to the enormous military prepara~ tions of the Governments of the South African Republic, Great Britain hod been

compelied to increase the British garrison |

in Cape Colony and Natal, entailing an °

additional expenditure of £500,000 an-,

nually.

Mr. Chamberlain said the Government had tried to establish friendly releations with President Kruger, but all their advances had been received with contempt.

Four times since indepeudence was granted we have been on the verge of war with the Transvaal. It say that the British Government will draw back now that it has put its hand to the

ig erroneous to

| plow.

We bope that the efforts that are being made will lead to an amicable arrangement for Great Britain ov'y desires justice. there comes & time when patience cao hardly be dist'ngnished from weakness,and

| when moral pressure becomes a force thay

casvot be continued without Joss of self-

| respect.

I hope that the time may never come in this instance, but if it does Britons will

| will find means to secure a result essentia!
