T Admiration of Emperor William Heightened Among All Eng- lishmen--The. Persian Monarch is Having a Fine Time in London. London, Aug. 20.--Fnglish hearts are touched by the kaiser's eloquent speech at Hamburg, yesterday, when unveiling the statue in memory of his mother. . The references which he made to the sanctity of her married life, to her careful tending of her hus- band durin his fatal and protracted illness, to the dignity with which she endured her grievous loss and to the patient fortitude under her own sui- ferings, all bore witness to the deep affection that existed between mother and son. The Daily Chronicle says that all Englishmen admire the kaiser, and their admiration will be heighten- ea by -the tribute which he has just paid to the memory of the Empress Frederick. The Reckenham newspaper published Kent, contains 'the tisement in' large type: "In aid of the cottage hospital. By desire, Lady Raglan wears her coronation robes ana coronet on the 20th August, when she will be pleased to receive any one wishing. to see them at Coper's. Cope house, South End road, on the presentation of a cara, for Avhich the.sum..of. three pence must be paid." The barone husband, Lord Raglan, was last. week appointea gov- ernor of the Isle of Man. Sir Edmund Barton, who leaves for the United States and Canada to day, will ga from Washington to Toronto, and will make several halts in Can- ada. It will be mainly a journey of pleasure.

Last night he watthed the coronation ballet at the Empire theatre, and after receiving 'the garter on the king's vacht to-day, he will visit the hippo- drome and will still have in reserve the fireworks at the Crystal Palace. VIBWED.BY U. S. EYES. What Will Be the Result in South Africa. New York, Aug. 20.--The Tribune's London cable says: *"The arrival of Boer generals in Holland is described, [with a subdued and chastened - spirit, by the Kuglish press. No fault can be found with the evidences of Dutch hero-worship, which London have set th¢ example of honoring, the Boer commanders, and Dr. Clark, also, as though they had been fight- ing" on the British side. The generals, evidently, were under less restraint at Rotterdani 'and The Hague, than they had been in England and were not casting about for excuses for reticence and reserve. "Whatever may be the opinion of the Boer negotiators, which conducted a safe campaign in Europe and the United States, they are not prepared to act independently oi Messrs Krug- er and Steyn, or without holding a prolonged conference with Messrs. rischer, Wolmarans, Wessels and other leadets. Mr. Fischer is 'the strongest and most influential Boer in Holland, Mr. Kruger alone excepted, and the generals are likely' to follow him ra: ther than Mr. Leyds. "From information which comes to me from pro-Boer sources here. I am convinced that' they will neither court favor nor excite resentment, but will go about their business quietly, make contracts with the publishers for books and sail for the United States late in the autumn. They will neither join in premature machinations against Mr. Chamberlain, nor con- sent to be smothered with magnani- mity and kindness. "*Pro-Boers when they become pro- phetic, forecast in South Africa a po- licy- of constitutional agitation, op- ening "to-day with a Dutch coalition against the loyalists in the parliament of Cape Colony, which Sir Gordon Sprigge, trimmer as he cannot control and leading up by easy stag- under confederation, to a self-gov- erning_ Dutch commonwealth under the British crown. Men like Mr. Fischer are too discreet to talk about ulteri- or Boer politics, but they already ad- vocate confederation as the iretvitable result of the conditions of peace." is, e8, FAST INLAND SERVICE.
