Hoyle (con The Press Views. The Globe, commenting on the re sults of yesterday's elections, says that the majority for the Ross gov- ernment is smaller than is desirable, but the indications are that it will grow. It also says that the parties are so nearly equal in strength that, as after the elections of 1898, immense importance . will be attached to the bye-elections. The Mail and Empire says that, at present, the situation is similar to that revealed immediately after the last general election in that the gov- ergment has a small majority, but the recounts may show it to be a vanishing majority.

London, May 30.--Gen. Kitchener's wensor allowed messages to leave Pre day morning announcing Steyn, Schalkberger, Dbelarey, Dewet and others from the Boer as Vereniging, eit Pretoria the burghers there. a full day before the latest cabinet meeting was held, is regarded as showing that yesterday's meting of the British ministers confirmed their previous statement of terms and that the Boers had received until Saturday to either accept or to reject them. The news means that the question of peace war is again transferred to Their departure, or | the commandants, who alone will de cine. A three days' limit has been placed on their councils. The newspapers are unanimous in interpreting Mr. Balfour's statement to mean that peace is assured. The careful phrasing of the statement was adopted only because of the memory of the many previous disappointments Whether amnesty to the Cape Dutch will be granted, or the date on which thé Boers will be allowed to vote for members of the legislative council has heen decided, is not indicated The fate of the other principal questions aehated by the Vereeniging conferenge is unknown. but the public is prepar ed to hear of an important British concession in the matter of the right to bear arms. The Standara's parliamentary cor respondent quotes an eminent conser vative as saying that the government has abandoned the banishment procia wation issued in South Africa in the case of those Boers who are now pre pared to take the oath of allegiance, and also that it will be found that the government is ready to place several influential Boers on the coun cil which will aavise governor Milner during the period before the introduc tion of representative government. A despatch to the Times, irom Pre foria, says that unless the Boers sud- denly veer round and adopt an un rpasonable attitude, there is good reason to hope that they will soon give notice of their acceptance of the British terms. The Times, editorially, oxplains that the foregoing applies to the Boer 'leaders, who are responsible, experienced men with something to lose. It expects that irreconcilables will be met among the commando delegates, but savs it is unlikely that they are in a majority. In any case they will not hereafter secure the ac tive of those desiring peace; at the worst, England may count upon an nnmense reduction in the forces of dizorder while at the hest she can hardly hope all at once to get rid of the lawless élement It is understood that the government is in receipt of an official communica tion from South Africa, intimating that the Boer minority, from whose irreconcilable attitude was feared, in other will agree among other things, to a gencral sur render, carrying with it the loss of independence Certain minor details only, which should not effect them; in question, remain to be settled assistance so much words, Management Vindicated.
