IxuwJon. Mil roll 7.—Private information received in London ibis morning oanlirfwp rumors of negotiations betwi'i'ii I»ircl Kitchener. Sir Alfred Milnoi- and Commandant Louis Botha. Notitinu is known as lo the actual piwoiKv of tlir Boer commander in chad' a.), Prrtoriii. and no l.nndon paper publishes a slalement that be is there bm it is reasonably certain that '!euertil liol.lia is in either personal or very close touch uiili Lord Kitchener.

Today Sir Henry Campbell-Banuer-Tuan will endeavor to extract, some information from lie. government on the subject in Hie house of commons. One of ttie best informed South African autlKinties said last evening: "We have little doubt that Genera! Botha will surrender. The question now is as tu what forces he can bring with him. We have private information tending to show that Lord oner and Sir All red Milner have decided to accept his surrender on the basis lhai lie is merely an individual commander rather than commander in chief of the enemy's forces. "(.itinera 1 !»c\Vet and General DeLa rev as well as the other leaders will probably have to be dealt with individually on similar terms. If the negotiations with General Botha reach a successful termination, it will be. to URe an repressive Americanism, just one of the bunch."
