Toronto, June 2.-The celebration here yesterday folluwing the signing of peace terms, by the Boer leaders in South Africa, brought this morning one of 'the most exciting incidents that have vecurred in To ronto in a long time. A little after midnight a procession, headed by boys with tin pans and torches and a bugler, marched up Yonge street to Gerrard street, where a bonfire was started in the middle of the street. When the fire was raging flercely, a waggon which had been secured - on Wilton avenue, was run right on top of the flames, At this moment police- man came on the scene. He tried to pull the waggon from the fire, be if dragged about He PEACE 1S PROCLAIMED The Terms Were Signed Oa with it early' Saturday Night NO DETAILS FORTHCOMING BUT SAID BETTER TERMS WERE OFFERED BEFORE. It By No Means Follows That Re- bellion Will End With The Boer Surrender--Sedition Rife In Cape Colony. London, June 2.-An official cable- gram from lord Kitchener, dated from Pretoria, 11 p.m., on Saturday evening, stotes that a document con Is) taining terms of surrender was sign: ed there at Boer representatives as well lovds Milner and Kitchener. The telegram of Gen. Kitchener, an nouncing the definite news that the terms were to be signed, was delayed somewhat by defects in the African cable, It reached the war office at 12.30 o'clock on Sunday where it was immediately deciphered and a copy of it sent by messenger to the king at Buckingham palace, where the royal family were informed before lunch. The king left the palace at three o'clock in the afternoon with the Portuguese: minister and several others, in a covered motor ear, It was noticed that his majesty was more radiant than usual, but groups of promenaders, to whose greetings he bowed in response, did not guess that he knew that peace had heen sigmed. The king, who wore a light brown coat and soft hat, took an hour's run, but did not visit any of the ministers, Copies of the telegram had already been sent to the members of the cabi net and the lord mayor of London After an interchange of messages it wae decided at five o'clock to display the telegram on the walls of the war office and the Mansion house. Neither of these is situated in a locality that is frequented on Sunday. The result was that the news spread slowly from mouth to mouth, always followed by the query: "Is it official ?" Confirm- ation, however, was complete and widespread, when copies of the des patch were posted at all the hotels and restaurants, and its contents were anmounced from platforms at concerts, and in the churches. The attendants at these places, dispersing to the residential suburbs, carried the news throughout the capital. The preachers confined themselves to words of gratitude and the announce- ment of "thanksgiving services during the coming week, with the singular ex- ception of canon Henson, a well known ritualist preacher and intimate friend of lord Salishwrv's son, who before his sermon at St. Margaret's church, Westminster, delivered what vas virtually a political speech on the situation. He said that there had been lengthy war and a' hivh-toned war on both sides, and it would be best closed by a generous settlement of details, which his hearers would doubtless learn to-morrow... Mutual respect for each other at the end of the conflict was the best guarantee Hor permanent harmony. It should bo forgotten that this peace had heen heavily purchased, and that the fact that it had cost so dearly added to the special responsibility. All must now exert themselves not to vield to resentment or strife. All must try to build up a great civilization in South Africa, A Pretoria correspondent says: The British authorities have issued a pro clamation terminating a number of civil proclamations of the Boer gov ernment issued in October, 1809, at the sommencement of the war. These deal with the currency and claims for interest on mortgages prior to June 1st, 1902, Jt directs that no action at law be entertained for elpims thereon until December 1st, 1902, No details of the terms of the Boer wubmission have been published. The are announcement of the surrender of all the forces of the former repuls- lie i= all that is vouchsafed. The cor respondent, however, is enabled to say that in addition: The terms which the Boers have accepted are on the whole less liberal, and their future rights and privileges are more strictly curtailed than in the offers of which they might have availed themselves earlier in the war. This will occasion surprise here and elsewhere. The ex- planation is that the Boers have struggled throughout the negotiatiops not for their own interests, but for their allies from the Cape Colony, who in their character of rebels. are liable to grievous penalties. The se- dition" in that colony is greater now than at any earlier period of the war, and it by no means follows that the rebellion will end with the Boe surrender. , To-day's give expres. sion to the nation's feeling of relief and jo¥. i* no mers exultation as by 10.30 p.m. by all of the | tatives, holding that the Dritish terms a Ae a | must be accepted on every vital point { The value of Gen. Kitchener's person Greater Britain together in a manner | unforeseen and hardly hoped for. { The Daily Mail notes that it is a} coincidence that the news should be known in England on the anniver sary of the public celebrations of the peace of Amiens, a hundred years ago The Times says : "We come out of the war to prosecute our imperial mission younger in consciousness of our might, and younger in vur hopes than when the brave foes we now wel come as friends forced it upon us." The cabinet will meet at 11:30 o'clock, this morning, to formulate Me. Balfour's statement to be made in the house of commons in the after noon. It is expected that Jord Salis: bury will make a stategnent in the house of lords. The Pretoria correspondent of the Daily Mail in a despatch, dated June 1st, says that the British government absolutely rejected the proposal of the Boer delegates, put forward early last week, at Pretoria, that the terms should be submitted for ratification to Mr, Kruger and the Boer represen The with minor concessions generous financial chiefly deal treatment, ality as a factor in the conclusion of peace cannot be overestimated. The Brussels correspondent of the Daily Telegraph says that Mr. Kruger and Dr. Levds are greatly dissatistiod because the Boer leaders in South Africa conducted the peace negotia- tions without consulting them. Dr leyds and his friends assert that peace will last only a few months. I'he Boers, supported by the Afrika in Cape Colony, will again take up arms aguinst England. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, the liberal leader, has issued the follow ing statement "Undoubtedly the whole country will rejoice that peace ders | feited his seat in the upper house NAY PROTEST OTTAWA What Ratc The Trade Papers Shovid Pay ANOTHER SENATE VACANCY SENATOR MASSON NOT AT- TENDED FOR TWO SESSIONS. The Senate Must Be Made Aware of the Facts Before the Vacan- cy is Officially Declared. Ottawa, June 2.-Senator Masson, who sat in the house of commons for Tertrebane from confederation down till 1552, who was minister of militia in Sir John A. Macdonald's govern ment from 1878 till 1880, and who held the lieutenant governorship of Quebec from. 188 till 1887, has for by non-attendance at the last two ses sions of parlinment. The vacancy will not, however, be officially declared till the house meets again, as the 'senate must itself be made aware of the facts, Another election protest to loom in to imminence is one against Mr. Mux phy, the new member for Ottawa. It is said that Mr. Murphy's name ap pears on bonds given by a large printing firm to the government. It is estimated that fifty tons, or 100,000 pounds, of mail matter, in the form of trade papers, are carried every month by the Canadian postal department for 8500 a month, or half a cent per pound, equal to $6,000 a vear. The proportion which this mat ter should pay in order to save the department from loss is said to be is assured. I know -nothipg of the terms and conditions, but hope they are sich as will give full promise of the future." storia corredpondlent of Daily Telegraph, writing under of May 10th, when the Vereniging con ference was assembling, savs the dele. gates were to discuss four points Dual languages; grant of form of self-government; complete am nesty for. all, including rebels. the delegates came from Klerksdorp acknowledgment that England was re sponsible for 'the war. Gen. Kitchener immediately drew a blue pencil through it. be rewarded for his services in bring- ing the war to a successful conclusion He will be promoted from the rank of Lieut.-general to general. and may re ceive a step in the peerage and a money grant from parliament. It is the intention of the liberal party, in the commons, to lose no time in the essing for a thorongh and searching inquiry into the whole conduct of the war, which has been repeatedly promised by the government during the last two vears, From all parts of the country re joicings are reported, and foreign telegrams indicate that the news has been received with general satisfac tion on the continent excepf in Bel gium and Holland. People in Amster dam are said to be astoumded, and Mr. Kruger is reported to have es: claimed, on being informed that peace was concluded, "My God, it is im possible." THE LAW IN THE MATTER. A New Election Can Be Held Be- fore House Meets. Toronto, June 2.--The death of Mr Munro raises several important points but the law seems to be clear in the matter, and that a new election can be held before the house meets. In a case where a member dies before the closing of a poll the returning officer has power to declare the election off and declare a new one. In this case apparently the law is that the re turning officer must return as elected the name of the candidate in the hox having the highest number of votes, and there is no way in which he can be officially advised as to the death of Mr. Munro. I this be so, then the polling pro- vision of the act governs in the case, which in substance allows any two members-elect to take the responsibi hity of informing the clerk of the crown -in-chancery of the death of Mr. Munro, and on that information the clerk in question can issue the writ for holding the new election.
