the negro, but the officers had just
started to the Kingston Jail with him

they will overtake them, and then
nothing can prevent a lynching.

who is about to return to Madrid, will
endeavor, to negotlate such, a treaty.

expected places in Spain. There is no

WILL LIVE IN HOLLAND.
BRUSSELS, June 8 -Mr. Kruger de-
clared that he will end his days in. ’
Holland.
The disarmament of the Boers is
proceeding satisfactorily, and good
spirit is displayed everywhere. Yes-
terday 4342 rifles had been surrendered
up to date.
Dispatches received by the Associ-
ated Press from Pretoria confirm the
statements made in Lord Kitchener's
communication to the war office, and
says that the whole staff of the late
Transvaal government, with a body-
guard of fifty men, surrendered last
Saturday.
Following formalities are observed
when General Botha, General DeWet
or any of the Boer commandants ac-
company the British officer who nas
been detailed to receive surrenders:
The Boer leader goes out to meet
a commando and returns at its hea1.
The Boers who come in are generally
dressed in dilapidated clothing, but
have a smart and soldierly bearing.
Those who are to surrender are as-
sembled, and the Boer leader delivers
an address to his men, urging them to
listen to the British officer who has
been detailed on this work. The Brit-
ish officer then makes a speech to the
men of the commando. in which he
informs them of the admiration of
King Edward and the the British na-
tion for the gallant struggle and the
bravery of the people, and promises
that the authorities will do their ut-
most to help them to settle on their
farms. A meni is then provided for
the Boers, after which die formal sur-
render ocgurs.
A striking sign of the altered condi- ,
sions in sout» Africa is that Lord
says our trade could be more largely
developed if we had a favorable com-
mercial treaty with Spain, and if we
would send enterprising commercial
salesmen with a knowledge of the
Spanish language. Consul General
Lay of Barcelona thinks that a still
better way to develop our relations
with Spain would be to establish a
permanent exhibit of American arti-
cles, and he' is now endeavoring to
open such an exhibit, either in Bar-
celona or in Madrid. Consul Ridgely
says that besides the raw cotton and
staves that form the bulk of the Im-
ports from the United States, that sec-
tion steel rails, iron bars for window
gratings, banisters, etc., machinery,
fire brick, paints, varnish, cement, tar.
copper, and canned meats have been
brought from our country within the
past year.
Consut Smith of Leghorn, Italy, says
that the importation at that port from
the United States doubled in value
last year.
Consul Cramer of Florence also re-
ports the popularity of our coal, which
is employed by the Italian railway
companies and by factories.
Our goods are to be seen in shop
windows, he says, and also many imi-
tations of genuine American products,
made In Germany. Two Americans in
the city are about to begin the busi-
ness of importing hardware, etc., from
the United States.
Consul Caughey of Mehsina says
that an American company is about
to erect a hotel thera
Consul Johnson of Venice says that
American Inventions have established
a reputation for genuineness and du-
rability and our manufactured goods
are growing in favor.
