they are bound to be greeted by storms of criticism from various quarters Peace will not modify tha crying need of additional revenue but it would take off the sting trom the additional taxation which

much because of British opposition but owing to colonial fillon in South itself While there Is no reason to believe that this Is not a summary of the Boer demands there reason to think they may be

any repetition of Mafeking night which it is feared might en- suo should the conclusion of peace be announced One of the curious features of the negotiations is that five of the Boeis representatives secured a legal the English bar The repeated rumors of Joseph resignation of the office of colonial secretary which recurred after the publication of his signed denial may be utterly disregarded They

MacArthur was again today the only witness before the committee and his examination was begun by ator Culbertson His questions related to the between the native forces and the American troops whea the latter first landed at Manila Senator Culbertson called attention to the fact that there is testimony on file to the that General Anderson had written to Aguinaldo inviting his operation at Manila and that the ter had accepted and that it also is stated that General Meritt had himself sent an aide to General Greene gesting that arrangements be made with the Filipinos for a common under- standing in the occupation of the trenches He then asked if in view of these facts the inference was not that friendly co-operation was not the American officials with the Filipinos in the attack on the Spaniards s Assuming the facts to be ae the replied if there were all there is in the premises it might be ad- mitted that inference was to be drawn as indicated But there are other facts form a part of the

began some days ago Oulnion In Wall street is in a nebulous condition as to who now controls the company but there is conviction that has passed from the Belmont interests and that John W Gates has been a factor in its passing There appears to toe good tion the opinion that Mr Gates may now ce in position toy throwing his stock one way or the other to decide interests shall hereafter control li
