REFUGE FOR KRUGER. FOR AN ASY CONSULATE.

BOER PRESIDENT ASKED

LUM IN U.S

President Kruger at one time made a formal application to the United States to grant hima sanctuary in case the necessity for it arose. This oc curred, according to Secretary ot State Reitz of the Transvaal Republic, the

day Lord Roberts’ entered Pre- toria.

The details of the event have been related to a representative of the

Associated Press by Mr. F. W. Unger, who has just returned frem the Trans- vaal, and who secured the information from Secrstary Reitz and others. After quoting the secretary as saying Presi- dent Kruger would never take to the mountains on account of his age, but would retreat down the line, eventu- ally escaping to Portuguese territory, Mr. Unger said the day the British en- tered Pretoria President Kruger sent for Mr. W. Stanley Hollis, the United States Consul at Lorenzo Marques, wah was taken to Machadodorp in a special -car.

President Kruger asked him if the Government would grant him (Presi- dent Kruger) an .asylum in the Lor- enzo Marques Consulate until he:made other arrangement for ‘his depariure. Preident Kruger expressed fears con- cerning his treatment by the Portu- guese Government, and wished to guard. against any pussible British land- ing partics. Mr. Hollis asked for time.to consult with his Government, and President Kruger assured him he would receive a week’s notice before putting the plan inio execution.

In consequence of this visit to the Transvaal aud the transmission of President Kruger’s reguest to Wash- ington, Mr. Hollis received instructions from Secretary Hay not to leave Portuguese territory again. He was thus compelled to neglect the interests of the British prisoners at Nooltgedacht, where there was great suffering.

Mr. Unger, in conclusion, said :-—“‘I make this explanation in justice to Mr. Hollis, whose action has been misun- derstood both in America and Great Britain.”

Mr. Unger did not know whether the State Department eventually gave a specific answer to President Kruger’s

request.

OF BRITAIN’S LITTLE WARS.

The public mind has een so occu- pied by the Boer war and the Chinese complication that the minor affair cf the siege of Coomassi, far north on the west coast of Africa, has been over- looked. Coomassiis aninland to wn in the state of Ashantee, on the dead- ly Gold Coast, reeking with malarial fever. An enormous army of native- attached the little British garrison there with its handful of British and native soldiers, and for almost two months they held out against terrible odds. Casualties weve numeroats and disease made havoc inthe ranks.o the defenders, until finally starvation was added tothe horror. Sir Freder- ick Hedgson, Governor ot the Gold Coast and leader of the gallant band, at last made his way to the coast with his plucky comrades. This is but one of the many little wars of Great Bri- tain always in progress in some corner or other of the world. They are so frequent that people asa rule pay scant attention te them, yet they are all part of the wo: in building up the empire and the work is alwevs stained red with British alood. A significant feature of this Coomassi tighting i& that the native Yoruba soldiers foughs for the British with the greatest hero

ism and were mentioned with pride by the officers. Great Britain has the rare genius of making loyal subjects and good soldiers out ofthe p2cple over whom she rules, whether they be black, white or yellow. Her native troops allover the world are among the best. The Sikhs and Goorkhas of India were anxious to fight in the Boer war, andthe Indians in the North- West wished to send an Indian force to South Africa. In the Boer war, tov, the Zulus and th2 Basutos freely offer- ed large forces of armed warriors to the British to aid in suppressing the Boers.

THEYANGTSE VALLEY.

One of the points of greatest import- ance at the present moment is the at- titude of Germany on the Yangtese qu- estion. The protest of the French and Russian consuls against the proposed landing of British troops at Shanghai is a serious matter and cause much anxiety there, all the more that it is now scarcely possible or at any rate very difficult for Great Britian to retre- at from the position she has taken up Much depends on the view which will be taken by Germany. If the Emperor should support France and Russia _ in opposing the British action a grave situation might easily arise. Mean- while British transports are lying off Shanghai many thousand treops ready to land.

A -semi-official despatch from Shanghai:dated Wednesday, Aug. «5, says: ‘The foreign cousnls’ acting on a joint resolution, have sent to their respective governments the following telegram:

‘ “Tf the Indian troops(British) are withdrawn from Wusung it will consti- tute a menace to the safety of Shang- hai. These troops ought to be landed on the basis of an international. under- | standing. To ensure the adequate safe ty of Shanghai more troops ought tobe landep immediately.””’

A NEW DEFINITION OF JLAR-

CENY.

: In the city of Washington a certain colored attorney was once retained for the defence of a negro youth who had entered a shop and appropriated some article, but before he could make good his escape the boy was detected .and forced to surrender the s'@len property The stand the lawyer took was that no larceny had been committed, inasmuch as the defendant had been relieved of the stolen matter before§e had left:the premises from which it was taken. He queted, a« parallel, thata man migh enter the field of his neighbor and drive off his horses of cattle untill she reached the boundaries of the field,but unless he passed them, no charge of theft could be made, as that property was guarded by those limits, and there fore still in the owner’s possession. No matter wat evil intentions may have been entertained by the man, said he,} the failure to pass these limits preclud-| ed his guilt, or rather prosecution for} thesame. An, yo, see, yo, honor, he, remarked in conclusion, de whole -ntire conception of what ccnstitutes’ ‘a’cery may be summed up in a few words; snd dat is, dat it i de takin, iway of somethin, from whar it ara, an, ettin’ it down in whar it am not!,,
