There was plenty of applause and en

Mr. McKinley said among other

"Jefferson's clause against slavery
was stricken from the original draft.
It is doubtful I1' the draft could have
been adopted without this elimination.
It was the best, it was nil that could
be done ut that line. What Jefferson

Reference was made to the fact that

X"v York, May 17. A special cable
dispatch to Ihe Sun siVys:
It is becominK more dear every day
that the polity of the prer-ut I'.ritisll
Kovei unit nt is to sok'." anl retain Africa
at all bas.aiiis, while it sacrifices liritish
interests in the far cast and other quar
ti is where the pressure has become too
Kie.it to resist. Tlie Idea seems to have
taken Possession of a lartte class of
F.iutlishmeti that Africa is to lie the
scene of the next epoch ill lnima,n activ
ity ami pioKi'' ss. India, China, Amer
ica ami Australia are all played out.
It is in Africa that the star of empire is
lis in?. It is there that success and fur
tune await all coiners and that the fu
ture greatness of tlie race will record
itself.
It is this belief In the minds of Lord
Salisbury, Mr. Chamberlain, and tlie
humblest admirer of the Jameson free
booters which has appuivnlly destroyed
or distoiied tiie moral perceptions of
tlie majority of KiiKlishnien with re
Kard to the whole African situation.
I said more than a week up that
Cecil Hhoiles and other cnfisplratnrs
against the Transvaal republic, would
not be- punished for their detestable
crime by the liritish Rovernnient. This
has now become obvious to the dullest
observer of the situation. It was a
mistake, at any moment, to expect such
virtue and Justice from a ministry
which periiiit'.od the ruthless slaughter
of a people whom it hail sworn to pro
tect axaiiist the bloodthirsty sultan,
l'olltics Is the excuse in both rases.
"Wither considerations" and "the "kcii
er.il welfare" are vajrue terms generally
Used in Juslilieation of these vile
smirches upon the fair record of KukIIsIi
"honor."
CAMl'AKiN FXDKltSTOOI).
The liritish ciimpaien in Africa is now
clearly uinjei stood in Kuropenii diplo
matic circles. It Is almost fin open
secret that before the dose of the year
C.ivat Hrltain will take the place of
Italy in Abyssinia, and will, of course,
push the Soudan expedition. Some re
ward w ill lie secured elsew here to Italy
fur the hiss of the remnants of her In
terests in Abyssinia.
Men.) time plans for seciirlnir liritish
control of the Transvaal, in one way or
another, will be persisted In. Tile doak
of decency will be thrown over these
efforts as far as possible, but liothitii;
will be permitted to check them except
the irioslKtilih interference of some
preat power. Few now believe that Mr.
Chamberlain was as ignorant as he pre
tends of the real nature or Mr. Khodcs'
plot against tlie liner republic. Some
friends of the Colonial Secretary say
frankly that they prefer to believe hull
culpably connizant of the situation
rather than tlie fool which bis Ignor
ance, down to the time of Fresident
Kruger's publication of the incriminat
ing telegrams, would show hitn to be.
Ills attitude since then has not been
that of a man who had been hoodwinked
by nn arch conspirator whom he pro
fesses to regard still as ladisis'iisable
to liritish Interests in Snulh Africa,

Pretoria, May 17. In an interview re
garding tlie ultimate fate of the mem
heis of the Johannesburg reform com
mittee now In jail here,' Ftvsident Kru
ger said that nobody desired more than
himself to expedite tlie decision ns to
the final .sentences lhat would bo passed
on the prisoners. A majority of them
had on Friday petitioned the govern
ment to lie allowed to pay increased
lines instead of being Imprisoned for
two years and be banished from the
Transvaal.
President Kruger added that he was
in favor of this proposal. Tin- delay in
deciding tlie matter arose from the diiR
culty oi discriminating between tho
signers of the petition and the others
wlio had refused to sign it. Personally
he wanted all the prisoners to be re
leased. A. P. A. AT VASIIINGTON.
