WASHINGTON.
From oar K(ru1ar Correspondent.
Washington, March 2, 1900.
The republican leaders of the House
are sMIl shaking from the fright given
them by their narrow escape from a
humiliating defeat on the Porto Rico
tariff bill. The figurative sackcloth
anil ashes of Ash Wednesday came
very near to being real for them on
that day. They amended the bill by
reducing the tariff from 2$ to 15 per
cent, which Representative Horry aptly
said merely changed the crime from
grand to petty larceny, and by limit
ing its operation to two years, which
was an acknowledgement that the
whole principle of the bill was a
wrong one, and then they could not
get the votes needed to pass it without
resorting to every known form of
political bull-dozing and cajolery. Had
the republicans of the House voted
their real sentiments, the bill would
have been defeated by more than a
two thirds vote instead of being pass
ed by jl vote of 172 to 161. The
Constitutional question involved in
this bill will not down. It will be
heard when the bill is taken up in the
Senate, and it will be heard all during
the coming Presidential campaign,
and like other great questions, will
never be settled until it is settled
right-
Senator Aldnch explained the gold
standard bill agreed upon by the Con
ference Committee, to the Senate, but
he did not attempt the impossible task
of defending the measure, which ought
to be officially entitled "A bill to pul
money in the pockets of the rich at
the expense of the poor."
Within 24 hours of the time that
the House was passing the bill to rob
the poor Porto Ricans by imposing a
duty upon the products they have to
sell the Senate was taking the first
step towards making Hawaii a State,
by passing the bill providing a ten
torial government for Hawaii. If
there is any logical reason for making
this unjust distinction between pro3
perous Hawaii and hall-starved Porto
Rico, it has been carefully concealed
from the public.
The House Military Committee has
endorsed two pet schemes of the ad
ministration to provide promotion for
favorites that to give the Adjutant
General of the army the rank, pay and
allowance of major-general, which will
be in the nature of a reward to Gen.
Corbin for his subserviency to Alger,
and his underhand attacks upon Gen.
Miles, his superior officer; and that
authorizing the President to select a
retired brigadier general for promo
tion to major general, which is in
tended to give Gen. Shafter the diff
erence between the pay and emolu
ments of a brigadier general and a
major general, retired, as a reward for
the Cuban campaign, the greater part
of which he spent lying in a ham
mock. "Funny" old world.
Representative Bailey, of Texas,
made the closing speech on the demo
cratic side against the Porto Pico
tariff bill, and it was a powerful plea
for the maintenance of the Constitu
tion as its farmers intended it to be
maintained. His last words, which
were received with uproarious ap
ptause by the democrats and the oc
cupants of the galleries, were: "Yvhen
emotional statesmen were asking who
would haul down the flat:, I dared to
say that I would take it down from
any place where the Constitution
could not follow it. Do you . desire
to present the anomaly of a govern
ment restrained by the Constitution
m one quarter of the globe, and pos
sessed of a despotic power in the rest
of the world? How long is the Con
stitution to shield us and our children
if its protection is withheld from the
humblest inhabitant? Let me bor
row the words of Lincoln: "This re
public cannot endure one-half free and
one-half slave". We must all be
citizens, or in time we must all be
subjects. I did not want to assimil
ate these alien and inferior races, and
1 pray God to deliver us from the task
But if you will take them, they must
share our destiny with us."

sidy job has been favorably reported
to the Senate. The report which was
made on the bill will be widely circu
lated by the republicans for the pur
pose of trying to create 11 pu'ilic senti

i. very !outtl 1, vIi,-i,ilt they wdi try
to pus'i the l.il, tin , 1 out, I alter the
Presidential election, as a word has
been passed around among the re
publicans in Congress to keep the
total of appropriations made at this
session of Congress down as much as
possible, with the understanding that
the money can safely be made to fly
at the next session, which will not be
held until after the Presidential elec
tion.
Of course, the disagreeable weather
in Washington had nothing to do with
the departure for Cuba, via Florida,
of Secretary Root. He is going to
make an "official inspection" of Cuban
ports, using a government transport
after he reaches Tampa What part
his wife, son and daughter, who ac
companied him, arc to take in the
"official inspection" is a question
which he may be able to answer. To
sonie persons this trip looks like a
winter junket for his family at public
expense.

"The Lioa of Africa."
The " Lion of Africa," as General
Pictrus Amoldus Cronje is known
throughout the country, from the
Limpopo river to Cape Town, has
justified the designation by his grim
life and death struggle at Paardebem
Drift.
His people regard him as a de.ni-
god. He is . really a short, rough,
tough, wily, good natured Dutchman,
ith a big beard and an 'ncessant
ipe. He is intensely religious, and
in tne Boer war of 1882 he deliber
ately squatted on an exposed position
while Krugersdorf was being shelled.
Come into a safe place, General,
said a comrade. " Nay," replied
Cronje, complacently puffing his pipe,
" if the Lord means me to be taken
I shall be shot wherever I sit.
To him the Boers are the chosen
people, and in fighting the British, it
is said, he has repeatedly referred to
his "smiting the Amelekites.
A SOLDIER FROM HIS YOUTH.
He lives on a farm near Patchef-
stroom, about 60 miles west of Jo
hannesburg, and in time of peace,
as superintendent of Natives, he lives
quietly, performing his duties in the
way least troublesome to him. But
wonderful stories are told of the cour
age and resDurces which he displayed
in the old davs, when the Boers were
trekking north, fighting their way
hrough swarms of hostile savages
and defending the laager camp against
fierce onslaughts.
Cronje has beer, a soldier from his
youth. He began his military career
in the ranks and has worked ins way
up to the second place in the Boer
army solely by his merits as a fighter
and tactician. He was already a field
cornet at Laing's Nek, in 1881, and
was second in command to Joubert
in the notable affair at Majuba Hill.
His chief distinction in the Boer war
of independence was gained, however,
in the siege and capture of Potchef
stroom, the town near which his
homestead is situated. The place
was defended by a small British garri
son under Colonel Winslow. Cronje
led the Boer iorces to the attack and
Winslow surrendered. The Boer
leader was accused by the British of
resorting to unfair methods during
the siege.
JTHE CONQUEROR OF " DR. JIM.'
As tune passed, Cronie rose in
rank, and when the Jameson raid oc
curred, in the closing days of 1805
he was placed in the responsible post
tion of commander of the Boer force
which was sent to head it off. This
he did effectually. Cronje rounded
up Dr. Jameson and his followers in
the little village of Dornkop. He
had no artillery, but his whole force
was armed with rifles, and was made
up of first-class marksmen. By their
commander's orders the Cocrs picked
off the British artillerists, rendering
their guns useless, and bringing the
raid to a premature close.
As a reward for his management of
the Jameson, affair Cronje was ap
pointed to succeed General Joubert
as Superintendent of Native Affairs,
and he now holds that civil position
under the Transvaal government.
HIS RECENT VICTORIES.
Soon after the declaration of war,
in October last, he was made second
in command of the united forces of
the two Boer Republics, and was as
signed to the district on the western
border of the Transvaal and Orange
Free State. It was by the forces un
der his command that the British gar
risons in Mafeking and Kimberley
were shut in.
But General Cronje's operations
have not been confined to the invest
ment and oiica'onal bombardment of
these two Jlriti..i towns. When (len
eral Methueu Matted to the reliel of
Kimberley in November he encoun
tered Cronje's force at Grass Pan, on
the twenty-fifth of tuat month. The
resulting encounter was practically a
drawn battle. Three days later there
was another and more desperate en
counter on the Modder river. This
encounter brought Methuen's advance
to a halt, and two weeks later on
Dec. istli Cronje defeated Lord
Methiien in the decisive battle of Ma
gersfontein, in which the Highland
Brigade was slaughtered and its com
mander, General Wauchope, killed.
He held his position at M.igersfon
tein until Roberts' advance in over
whelmingly superior numbers forced
him to retreat to Paardeberg Drift,
where he was forced to surrender un
conditionally on Tuesday morning.

Business of the Woek
In its epitomization of the past
six days in business, Dunn's Weekly
Revicui says:
Besides the 8i commercial failures
for $9,931,048 which we report today,
there were in February six banking
allures lor $020,121, and rcceiveis
were appointed for the United States
Flour Milling Con.pany, with $25,
000,000 of stock and $1?, 000,00 of
bonds authorized at its oiganization
last April, and for the Third Avenue
Railroad Company after liens for
several millions had been placed upon
the properly. Unless separated from
such events, coirmercial failures could
not be compared with benefit. The
manufacturing failures for $4,257,638
were larger than in February ot 1896
or 1801;, but more than half the
amount was in two classes, four large
lumber and one clothing failure mak
ing 38 per cent, of the whole. 1 he
trading failures were lirger than in
reuruary of last year enly, but 20 per
cent, of these detaults were made in
five lailures. In most branches the
comparison with previous years is en
couramnir, and analysis Urines out 111
strong light the remarkably low aver
ae of liabilities in the smaller failures
which constitute the great majority
ndicatina sound business conditions
and unusually satisfactory collections,
The rise of cotton to ok cts , the
highest point since January, 1893, has
done much to stimulate business,
drawing from southern plantations and
country towns more than double the
quantity marketed last year, distnbut
ing millions to producers whose pur
chases of supplies are thus increased,
and swelling beyond all expectation
the purchases for export. Heavy sell
ng of cotton by people who had none,
but felt certain that 9 cts. would mark
the limit of the rise, had placed them
quite at the mercy of holders. But
the markets both for goods and for
cotton have been affected all over the
world, and the country will reap some
benefit in a larger excess of merchan
dise exports over imports. The
