The department frlves out for publication the order which Gen. imlth Issued on Feb., 22, ulfows tliH to stand as rofuj.ition of the testimony of Waller's wilnesHes. none of which Is supported by documentary evidence.

THR cnfotceiuent of martial law In Cape Colony has been a very delicate nutter, and on that account the delega tion of ainhoilly to Incompetent hands has caubed much ailver.se criticism, . especially in view of subsequently re conciling the t'.ipe Dutch to British itile. The lecent case of Dr. It, J. Relneke lllustiates this very cleat ly. IJr. Relneke, a KX-ultmle of Kdinbuigh and OlasROW, was a Dutch colonist In Ceres, a small town In Cape Town sixty or seventy inllqs from Cape Toft n.where for the; past five yetus he has been the n-Hldcnt physician. J.ast August the town was put upder the command of fan Austiallaiucaptalii and one of thu Tfltnti at vWas tu order Dr. flelneke .ttul'hls family, to move to Malmeshuiy, j a ;towtv rifty miles distant. Xo lettson wtts Kjyen for the, order and the only -t-concessloii made nhen ah appeal was vfi-nt to lieodqu-trteis was that Helneke's fwlfe and chlldreiiinlMlit remain lit their Joia 1101,110, on hlH anlval In Mnlnies. Jhuty he was put, in Jail, There he ic jjnalned for u month, when he was ie- flensed- through a, habeas corpus, only .tq 'b,e jearrestPd thu name day and senti.as, u prisoner under guard to the military camp, whence, at tho end of aveek, he was leturned to the Jail, I- "During. Stills tlme'liall had been te- 'S-ftiBPrt. Relneke had been under at rest for two weeks before he was uble to Jflrifl out what the chaige ugalnst him ajwijP. Mud at no time while In Jail was 4 lie permitted to call In tounsel or .ft lends. Thero weio no speclllo charges a-beyond ageneial acousntlon of acts of npdntluPt prejudicial to good outer.

After I3r.

The result was tln.it his home, orchards, plantations and vlneytnds wetc all but ruined. Or. Helneke's position and the prominence jjlvctt to his ense have serv ed Kreatly to Inerease the bitterness amoiiu a class which the Knsllsli att tliorltlc are tnot anxious to placate. The orlKlnttl blunder was made by au 'overtolllclous officer, who was placed In u position of authority for which he was untitled. Jtelneke seems merely to have criticized the policy of the Enitllsh ovei nment. Commercial Advertiser. And the Philadelphia tnqulter calls It the "t-tilmn olmilty bill." The ninerls of tooo. rpv III! Ilochester Post-Kxpress publishes luleiestlng statin tics regnrdlngnilnerals raised ' In the ye.-r 1900, as follows: The quantity of coal raised ftom all, the mines Iti the world was 767,C:!fi,204 tons; of lion 40,427,43., tons: petroleum 1S, rwa.O.'iO tons: , salt 12,r,7.,.7fi tons; lead 7S7.S41 tons! copper 5:14,73"! tons: Kino 440,371! tops; tin 50,643 tons. In the same year thete was taken irom the earth of the two more pieclous metals, silver and gold respectively, 3,874, 2S4 kilograms and 393.196 kllogiams a kil ogram being a little over 2. '2 pounds av.olrdupols. Although the output of coal in the I'lilted States is greater than that of Great lirllaln and lteland combined, It 1s a little less than tliat of the whole Biltish emplie that of the t'nlted States for the year 1900 being about L'4',000,000 tons, and that of the Uiitlsh empire 218,000,000 tons. Ger many comes next as a coal producer, her mines having yielded In the same year 150,000,000 tons. Austrla-Hungniy stands fotttth with an output of about 40,000,000 tons. Great Britain leads the woi Id In her yield of tin, producing half as much as the other nations combined. But as regards the pioduction of cop- pei, iron, zinc ami leau tne t'luteu States leads all the test of the world. The' Biltish empire, however, Including all her vast numbe'r of colonies, takes the lead again in the output of gold, diawlng In the year 1900 from her mines 188,491 kilograms of that costly metal. These great mines of the world weie U oi Iced In the year mentioned by 4,47iJ, 000 peisons. The occupation of mining is generally considered lather a dan geious one, but it is both gratifying and sutpilslng to leain that the death rate fioni accidents In mines In 1900 thiough out the whole woi Id was less than two per thousand of the persons employed. The lowest death rate was In Belgium, being only a little over one person to the thousand, the highest In Bosnia and Heizegovlna, leaching Iheie neatly eight to the thousand. In the United Kingdom of Gieat Britain and Ireland it was a little over one and a quar ter to the thousand, and In the United States a little over three and a quarter. The higher death rate here, than In Gieat Britain is due to the greater use of inachlneiy in oUr jnines. The world's agriculttue can never be exhausted, new. crops fiom seed left over being piodtlcPd each year. But the mines of the woi Id must In time give out as in them no leplenishliig or j-epioduclng piocess ear by year Is going on. But that day Is so far distant that it need give no Immediate concern, unless It be In legard to coal, the output of which is so enormous as already to lead to anious calculations In i expect to how long It can last.

TALKS BY THE PUBLISHER. The Tribune's Popular Contests How They Ate Looked Upon by- the Public j'jij..jti.Mjtjij.i D t'ltlNO iho past two yen in The Tribune hits conduyted several contests of various Idmln Hint have proved very popular. There has been nothing tindlgtilfleil about any of these itiid n gratifying feature of each has been that every person who parti cipated has been perfectly satisfied with the results. The Tribune has never advertised to do a thing thut It hits not tlone: It has never promised any to wards that have tiot been given, Aside from Its third grent "IMtica tlonal Contest," announced two weeks ago. iheie have been otheis of similar magnitude but not the less Interesting or piofltiible to participants. Chief among these was Its "Junior 12ducutlon nl 'Contest," conducted during Decem ber, when n long list of valuable Christ mas gifts was given to the children who succeeded In forming the most words out or the lettets In "Scranton Ttlbuiic." Words of commendation were heard on every side for The Tri bune's liberality, and for the onnortun- Ity offered by it to the young people to linplove their educations. Letters were received ftom those who wete fortunate enough to earn prizes In this contest, and alo from many otheis, commend ing Tlu-Tilbune for Its enterprise. Here Is a sample of the letters received: 11 .why. l'.i.. Dot. 27, Pull. l'oiilel IMitoi, srinlvn Tilbunc Dear si,; v mn,, ii.nmhi,.,, cllrip nnWl ilt ulics ini!

This year there are four times as many scholarships offered tin there, were hist yearwith a value three tlmeit as great. II Is safe to say that no such offer was uer made In this section of the state, find It Is doubtful It such an offer will ever be lopeatci). Instead of tlneo great scholarships, covering three n'r four year., ai wus offered lasl year, there atp, at. least ten, .covering front three to five yenis, many of these not only including tuition, but also board, room,, heat and light. This offer Is of such magnitude that It Is hard to realize that for thu work of only it few months ti complete edu cation, fitting any young man or woman for active life, con be obtained with practically no expense duping the whole teini of years beyond spending money. There were only ten active contest ants lasl year, yet there tiro thirty-two scholaishlps offeied In this contest, It tlll probably take but very few points to secure u scholaishlp of considerable value. Still The Tribune places no limit on the number of points necessary to seeuio il icwurd. The contestants with the largest number of points secure the scholarships, no matter how small the numbers may be. Tho Tribune Is willing to take all tho chancps on Its securing returns on Its investment the returns may not all come this year, but the paper is growing better every day, and as long as Its .circulation con tinues to Increase its revenue Is sine to Inciease also and If tile return does not all come this year It will come In future years. Subscribers have but to learn the superiority of the paper by personal coinpailson to continue their subscriptions. Kxpeilence has shown this-to be the case, and those Kduca lional Contests have done much to bring Tlie Tribune to the attention of new readers.

We are grateful to these gentlemen for their kind woids, and wish to ussuie our leaders that their rem'arks only leflect the sentiments of ninny people.
