Amsterdam, April 2.-Mr. Kruger and the circle surrounding him are not optimistic as to the conclusion of ete peace. They believe Eng- land i= willing to grant full amnesty and will rescing lord Kitchener's pro- clamation in to the banish- ment of all Boers, who did not sur render on September 19th, but that she remains adamant on the question of granting independence to the South African republics. Jt is claimed that there is complete unison among the Boer leaders in the field, and the re- presentatives in Holland, that the war will continue unless 'Great Bri: tain agrees to grant independence. The Reason Yet Unknown. London, April 2.--8o far no news is forthcoming to indicate the cause of the railway accident at Barberton, in the Transvaal, in which thirty-nine British soldiers were killed and forty- five wounded. Barberton is a station «on the Pretoria-Delagoa Bay railway, 213 miles from the Transvaal capital, and seventy miles from the Portugese frontier, After Mr. Kruger fled from Pretoria, before the British occupation in June, 1900, he madle Barberton his head- quarters for some time, living there in a saloon carriage. The Dutch Premier Travels. Berlin, April 2~Dr. Kuyper, the Dutch prime minister, has arrived here. It ie not stated whether his visit has any bearing on the present negotia- tions regarding peace in South Airi- ca. New York, April 2--New York spe dial cable from London says: Minis ters remain in holiday retirement and lord Kitchener continues to organize fresh drives and report progress once a weok. Nobody on the British side socems deeply concerned over the peace agitation among Boers, and hostile operations are not suspended in any quarters, nor preparations for sending out reinforcements this month. Yet peace ix no doubt nearer, even to su- perficial observers. Lowls remains uncompromising in bis talk, but there is indisputable evi: dence that the Boer agents in Furope have run short of money and are anxious to have the curtain rung dames Martin is making preparation. down on the melodrama of the hap or a large delivery of nursery stoc) less warfare. . 1 Gens.

London, April 2.--Orders were issued } this Morning from the home military headquarters at Aldershot, that every available man of the second and third provisional battalions, now being formed there as part of the first army corps, must embark for South Africa by April 15th. BALL OF FIRE ON A POST. A Gunshot Had No Efiect On This Strange Thing. Cobourg, April 2--Robert Lavts, postmaster driver of Hia- watha, on Rice lake, is credited with saying thdt the residents of the vil lage are in a very excited state over the supernatural appearance of a spook in the shape of a glowing ball of fire which has appeared near the house of Alfred Crowe, on four occa sions, quite recently, One of Mr. Crowe's children is very ill, and friencls gre obliged to sit wp with the child all night. The watihors state that on four dif ferent nights a huge ball of fire bas appeared pnd hovered around the house. The first time it appearad it rested for some time on the roof of the putap house," and then slowly dis- tehers became alarmed, and the next night when the thing appear it rested on the gate post, and when Mr. Crowe went out to see what it thing i INCREASED THE RATES. Saloon Passengers Must Pay Up Handsomely. London, April 7.--The Imperial to- bacco company contradicts the state ment that it projoses to start a number of shops in London and the srosinees, with a view of retail trade. 'he company says that it bas acral ly dictated the opposite policy of 'hat attempting to oust thé presni re tailers. The Daily Telegraph claims to have authoritative intonation that no- thing hitherto published in connection with the will of the late Leu Rhodes is suthentic. It states that the will is certainly of imperial interest, but in a way not yet even hinted at. A despatch to the Daily Mail, from Cairo, says that Marconi has ay to the Soudan government for per- mission to introduce his system of wireless telegraphy in that province. The adoption of thy system is doubt ful, owing to the expense and the existence of the present telegraph Budget forecasts are very plentiful, It is admitted thet moncy must be raised in order to meet the cost of war, and Sir Mithael Hicks Beach daily receives nimerous letters, ad vising him how to act. The commit tee of the Cobden club issued a pam- phlet, urging an extension of income tax fo all mcomes over a hundred pounds and demanding that any fur ther revenue required should be rais- ed by increasing the rate of income tax, or increasing the death duties on larger estates, or adding to the taxa- tion on tobacco and intoxicapts., The British taxpayers will not have to wait long before they know the worst, as the chenellor of the exchequer will probably make his annual finan- cinl statement in the house of com: mons before the end of next week. The Atlantic Asenger carrying companies, which have heen hatching & mysterious combination for the past few months, offered the result of their conspiracy to the public yesterday. All lines, except the Reaver, have drawn up a new schedule of saloon rates, to come into operation imme- diately. The general effect is the price of saloon passengers is raised to-day by sums varying from £3 to £7. ------------ CANNOT PRACTICE IN AFRICA Canadian Doctors Complain They Are Unable To Get Licenses. Montreal, April 2.--Complaints have been received from Canadian doctors in South Africa protesting against the pon-acceptance of the degree of Can- adian universities in the South Afri can provinces. Dr. Ruttan, registrar of McGill university, states that the complaints are well founded. Canadian certificates were not recognized in South Africa any more than they were in England or in any portion of the empire outside of Canada, The 'reason for this was that Cape Colony has no professional ganization of its doctors to issue li conses on its own responsibility, the certificates of the English faculties are received, Until Canada can offer Eng- lish doctors a recognition of their re- gistration at home, England will not grant a recognition of Canadian registration. This applies to all branches of the British service, whe- as or- colonics. BISHOP BARS FRENCH PAPER. The Croix, Religious Journal, Condemned By The Bishop. London, April 2.--The Paris corves pondent of the Times says the bishop of Nancy has forbidden the clergy and laity in his dipcese to read the potorious paper, the Croix, (a reli- gious and nationalist journal). He declares that the charities founded by the Croix are intended for political purposes, with a view to drawing the clergy into conflicts, After years of protests, says the bishop, he feels bound to coudemn the christian de- moerats, who foment divisions gmong the Catholics. The correspondent says that this condemnation of a nationalist anti- Semite organ in a nationalist stronyg- hold like Nancy is very significant. LYNCHING FEARED. Attack Expected on the Jail to Kill Postmaster. Clayton, N.Y.. April 2-An attack on the jail for the purpose of lynching postmaster J. W. Guyer, who killed William E. Seales, a jeweller, last Wednesday. is threatened by citizens, who have held several meetings to dis cuss the case. Guyer shot Seales in seli-defence, the latter having fired the first shot.

The corres pn lent says it is reasonable to ex pect that the cause of christimnity will suffer further in the near future. The nations chiefly interested in the labor of missionaries have come to (rma with the Chinese government, leaving the murderers of the christians un panished. The native converts in many places are deliberately held up to the odinm of their fellow covatry- men by the imposition on their eom- munity of taxes required lo meet 1 indemnities levied for missionary claims.
