GREAT BRITAIN’S REPLY. Transvaal Notified That Her Refusal Hake* It Useless to Continue Negotiations on Same Lines. London, Sept. 26. —The officials of the foreign office Monday evening gavp out Ihe text of the letter of the secretary of state for the colonies, Mr. Chamberlain, to the British high commissioner in South Africa, Sir Alfred Milner, dated September 22. The British reply expresses regret that her majesty’s offer, No. 5, of September 8, had been refused, and says: * "The object her majesty’s government had In view In the recent negotiations has been stated In a manner which cannot admit of misapprehension, viz., to obtain such substantial and Immediate representation for the outlanders as will enable them to secure for themselves that fair and Just treatment which was formally promised them in 1881, and which her majesty intended to secure for them when she granted . privileges of self-government to the Transvaal. No conditions less comprehensive than those contained Jn the telegram of can be relied on to effect this object. The refusal of the South African government to entertain the offer thus made, coming as It does after four months of protracted negotiations, themselves the climax of five years of extended agitation, makes it useless to further pursue the discussion oi the lines hitherto followed, and the Imperial government Is now compelled to consider the situation afresh and formulate Its own proposals for a final settlement of the Issues which have been created In South Africa by the'policy constantly followed for many years by the government of South Africa. They~wttT communicate the result of their deliberations in a later dispatch." London, Sept. 26. —The Brussels corresi>ondent of the Standard nays that ,I)r.

HE CANNOT COME. I line an of HU Wife Compel* President Dlu to Give Up Hla Trip to Chicago. City of Mexico, Sept. 26. —President Diaz on Monday decided to abandon his contemplated trip to the United States. The reasons for this decision are simply and solely the enfeebled condition of Mrs. Diaz, the wife of the president, who has been for some time confined to her bed. Her illness, while not regarded as dangerous, is attended with great suffering, nnd on that account the president is not w illing t 6 leave her. It had been hoped that she would recover sufficiently to accompany *her husband to a point where she would be free from acute suffering. But there seems no prospect of this being attained, and therefore the president decided to .abandon the trip which he has looked forward to with pleasure, but which he felt would be marred by the knowledge that he was leaving his wife behind suffering from a painfuHllness. The change of plans has no political significance whatever. The afternoon papers have no comment, as the news of the abandonment of the trip was not known to them in time. The clerical organ, El Tempo? has an editorial based on the hypothesis that the trip is to be made, and it reiterates its former statement that a deep-laid political plot underlies the invitation of the Chicago cominitlee. Secretary of Foreign Relations Mariscal, whom President Diaz had designated bs president during his absence, will depart on the 10th inst. in the presidential cars. He goes as the direct and persona! representative of the’president. He will be accompanied byjiis physician. Dr. La Vista; Julio Gogorza, a high official of the foreign relations department; his son-iti-law, Thomas Moran, and his private secretary, Lie l’albino Havalor. So strong was the expectation of Mme. Diaz’ improvement that on Monday t he senate again took-upthe matter of the proposed, visit'and increased the amount'of the appropriation for the expenses of tiie president and liis party to $150,000 gold. The former appropriation was SIOO,OOO silver. TO RELEASE PRISONERS. Latest Information Ta to the Effect That Agulnaldo .Will Liberate Americans at Once. Manila, Sept, 26. —Two Englishmen, who had been held by the insurgents since June, have arrived at Angeles. They report that the Filipino congress lias resolved that 14 American prisrners shall be surrendered on Wednesday or Thursday. They have, however, no information ns to the whereabouts of Capt. Charles M. Rockefeller, of the Nineteenth infantry,- who disappeared in April Inst, and of whom no trace has heeiuiiscovered. They assert that three Americans who were captured by the rebels are acting as officers in the insurgent nrmy. Washington, Sept. 26.—Two important dispatches from Gen. Otis at Manila were made public by the war department Monday. The first-indicates that the insurgents on the island of Negros are about to recognize the authority of tlie United States. An election in Negros will be held on the 2d of October. Tiie dispatch follows: "Manila, Sept. 22.— Adjutant^?General. Washington:' Hughes, Iloilo, reports Lc- , pez and 04 armed men surrendered to Byrne at Castellano, Negros. Election In that island October 2. Sought conference. Chief Insurgents of Danay wished to know what promise eould be given them In case of formal submission. “Told no arrangements possible, until surrendered and force disbanded. “OTIS.” The second dispatch says the American tlag will be raised in Stilii island. The chief insurgents in Znmbonngo are reported willing to accept the authority of the United States, but desire to name conditions which Gen. * Otis would not accept. CHINESE TO BE LANDED. The Dlfllctilty In the Philippines Hu* Doe it Adjusted svllh Chinese „ Minister. Washington, Sept. 26.—Secretary Root hus received u cable message from Gen. Otis, regarding the Chinese situation in the Philippines. He says that the shipload of 70U can be loaded without any serious interference with military operations, Gett. Otis discusses at considerable length the subject of Chinese in the Philippine islands and the dispatch was referred to the state depart incut, where it was made the subject of a conference between Acting Secretary Bill and the Chinese minister. A settlement of the general issue between two governments respecting the admission of the Chinese to the Philippines was not attained through this particular incident, which was considered anti disposed of sorely on its own merits!. The Chinese will be landed, but without recognizing the right of the Chinese government to demand this. On the other hnmt, the Chinese government while permitting the men to land do not in any man iter concede our right to apply rite Chinese excltisitnt law to tiie Philippines, and stand by the principles enunciated in the formal protest which was made last week by the Chinese minister b’efe against Gen. Otis’ action. Killed Himself. Boston, iv'pT- 26.

OLYMPIA IS SIGHTED. Famous Warship Arrives Off Saaffjr Hook—Preparations for Dewey Reception. • O New York, Sept. 26. The United States cruiser Olympia was sighted oil Sandy Hook at 12:55 a. nt. New York, Sept. 26. —From the Battery to Harlem the streets show evidence of the preparation for Admiral Dewey’s welcome. Nearly every office building on Broadway and the downtown thoroughfares is being decorated with flags, bunting, shields, streamers, and the enthusiasm displayed in the adornment of private houses is not behindhand. Fifth avenue, as the main route of the parade, presents a busy appearance. Stands are building all along its length on the steps of churches, offices and dwellings. Vacant windows bear huge pictures of the admiral, coupled with the sign: “To Let for Dewey Day.” The town is already crowded with people. All the hotels are full and furnished rooms are pretty well taken up. Among the vessels already in the harbor to participate in the welcome to Admiral Dewey are several which are usually engaged in the coasting and sound traffic. These are well provided with staterooms, and their agents have already bid for the hotel overflow. It is proposed to provide sleeping and eatrJhg accommodations on several of them during the week. Included in the sightseeing floating hotels are some of the boats used as transports in moving the troops to the West Indies. Special indueementsare being offered the patronspf the hotel boats to remain over and witness the yacht races next week. The committee of seven of the reception committee will visit the Olympia as soon as Admiral Dewey will receive them on Thursday afternoon and formally make known to him the city’s plans for his reception. The mayor’s private secretary will accompany the committee and ask the admiral if it will be convenient for him to receive the of New York a*fe r ll o’clock the following day. Levi P. Morton has accepted the invitation to be one of the committee of seven. All have now accepted except William C. Whitney, who has not yet been heard from. Though the Grand Army of the Republic will not have the permission of Gen. Shaw, the new commander in chief, many of its members are expected to take part in the great land parade in honor of Admiral Dewey next Saturday. Gen. O. O. Howard, who has been placed in command of the unarmed division, when he opened his headquarters Monday at No. 177 Broadway, announced that grand army men would be welcomed up to the very last moment as participants in the demonstration. His headquarters are v in a way, a recruiting station for G. A. It. men, and Gen. Howard hopes to enlist a large number before his muster roll is closed. But the veterans will not be officially known as grand army men, nor will they be assigned a position in the line as such. They will be known as veterans of the civil war, and as such will march past the admiral, saluting with just as much fervor as if there had been no trouble over their position in the line. WAR GROWING WORSE. Ynqnl* Carrying on n Guerrilla Campaign and Killing Many Mexican Soldiers. Austin, Tex., Sept. 26.—Judging from reports reaching here front Ortiz, state of Sonora, Mexico, the Yaqui Indian warfare is rapidly growing worse instead of abating. Lieut. Majeran lias arrived at Torres on his way to tiie City of Mexico to make official reports as to the progress of the campaign. He says there lias been no cessation in the warfare being waged against the Indians by the Mexican government. He reports that tile Indians have been scattered into small bands nnd are now vigorously waging iuguerrilln warfare, and that the Mexican soldiers hate adopted similar tactics and are also divided into small scouting parties, and thsjt there are frequent engagements between the soldiers aftd tiie Indians. The Indians avoid open engagements with the soldiers, rather harassing them with attacks from secure positions in the mountains and along the rough mountain roads, not infrequently causing much loss of- life among the soldiers, with little harm to themselves. Gen. Torres, in command of the Mexican troops, asks the Mexican.war department to send a force of rurales to assist him. ns it is thought they can render very effective service against the Indians. The Yaqttis hold the rurales in great dread, as they are their oldtime enemies and a most formidable foe. During the past ten days a great maty miners have arrived at Ortiz, having been driven out of the mountains: by the threatening situation, nnd all bear tales of murder and bloodshed Dozens of skirmish fights have resulted in a number of soldier’s and Indians being killed, and several miners have lost their lives. Many of them have deserted paying mines in order to save their lives. The entire country tributary to the uprising is in a state of fermentation and all tiie Americans are leaving as rapidly as possible. Dividing the soldiers into small squads scatters the war over a wider range of mountain territory. and every section of the Yaqui country is terrorized. Willie, aged five, bounded into the house one day. exclaiming, as he hung his hat on ihe hall rack: „“This is my home! is my homel” A lady visitor said: ~TThe house next door is jusl iike this, Willie; suppose you wept over 'here and hung your hat up in the hall, that would be your home as much a* this, wouldn’t it?’’ “No, nta’am,” answered the little fellovy. “Why not?” asked the lady. “ ’Cause my mPthei doesn‘t. live there.” was the triumphant rrply ’ -I__ An energetic temperament and active habits conduce to longevity.

BROKE UP THE MEETING. Patriotic Londoners Interfere with as Anti-War Demonstration in Tramiiwr Square. London, Sept. 25.—The attempt to hold a pro-Boer anti-war demonstration in Trafalgar square, London, Sunday afternoon, resulted in a drastic failure. Thousands assembled, but not to sup* poit the speakers. On the contrary, the crowds waved union jacks and sang the national anthem and “Rule, Britannia like mighty invocations. The speaker*, who were quite inaudible, were received with groans, decayed apples and eggs and other missiles. There were cheers for Mr. Chamberlain, secretary of state forlhe colonies, and hisses for President Kruger. Tiie list of speakers included none of special influence, most of them being labor leaders or socialists. The members of the peace associations had no opportunity to address the crowd. They were saluted with execrations as soon as they mounted the platforms and were obliged to stand, smiling complacently, during the singing of the national airs and the wild cheering for Mr. Chamberlain. Their attempts ta put their resolutions to a vote were the merest dumb show. Henry M. Hyndman, the socialist leader, was a particular object of animosity. He was menaced with a forest of walking sticks when he tried to speak. The shouldering of a soldier ana a marine, their hands clasped, in a procession around the square, provoked frantic enthusiasm and was altogether an impressive incident, the multitudes bursting into the song “Soldiers of the Queen.” On many of the passing omnibuses, which carried small union jacks, the passengers lifted the flags from their sockets find waved them vigorously. ... The opponents of the meeting finally proposed resolutions in support of the government's* policy, which were carried amid wild enthusiasm. ■ There were several ugly rushes for the platforms, which were surrounded by opponents* pf the demonstration, who yelled fiercely. Finally the mounted police were telephoned for to clear the square. Batons were freely used, several persons were trodden upon by the horses and 10 arrests were made. Long before the intended hour all the proposed speakers 1 had disappeared. London, Sept. 25.—The Transvaal situation presents no new features. Dispatches from Johannesburg report a complete dislocation of the Rand mining industry. The exodus continues and all the mines are closing. The Bloemfontein correspondent of the Manchester Guardian, a pro-Boer organ, says: Both President Steyn and Mr. Fischer (of the Orange Free State executive) inform me that j,he volkraad is absolutely the two republics should stand or fall together. A VERY SICK MAN. Illness of Vice President Hobart Mpy Prevent His Candidacy fora Second Term. New York, Sept. 25.—The Press saysIt is possible that Vice President Hobart may be unable to be president of the next session of the United States senate. More than that, it is now recognized 'as a uerious probability that he will not be in physical condition to

VICE PRESIDENT HOBART. accept a renomination as the running mate of President McKinley in the next campaign. The disease from which Mr. Hobart suffers is a kidney trouble, not Scute, but of a form requiring absolute rest for a long time. The fact has been known to his friends, but this is the first announcement that his illness is so ierious as to threaten an actual withdrawal from the duties of his public position. This illness began with an attack of the grippe in Georgia last spring. He returned thence to Washington, where he suffered a relapse, being confined to his house for several weeks. Then he went to Long Branch and recovered sufficiently to rejoin his friends and the president during a part of his outing at Lake Champlain. Since his.yeturn last Tuesday’ to hip home in Paterson. Carroll hall, the vieg president has not visited his office ip the Savings Bank building. It is said that he eau make no effort without ex huustion. His private secretary says: ’The trouble' with Mr. Hobart is that is soon as he feels strong enough to work he pitches in so hard that he makes himself ill again.” It is flow nearly six months since the vice president, despite long periods of rest, has been able to devote his time continuously to business.
