ment. He said: , *
“I have always regarded the war in
j South Africa as iniquitoiis from begin
ning to end. If the Bops have been
I conquered, I am exceedingly sorry,
j They deserved a better fate. They
were true patriots and fought like
| men. I am glad, however, that peace
has come at last.
“If the terms of surrender mean ab
ject submission, then f sympathize
heartily with the Boers 4nd am sorry
that they have been compelled to give
up the fight. The news of surrender is
no surprise, because the end was sure
to come sooner or later. It was impos
sible for that little repullic to cope
successfully with the whole British na
; tion.
“I am a friend to every tman who Is
fighting for civil liberty, fend I have,
J therefore, been a warm Sympathizer
with the Boers. For the aime reason
I regard our own war in ithe Philip

THE NEWS IN WASHINGTON.
British Embassy Officially Notified of
Surrender of Boers—Roosevelt is
Furnished Copy of Cablegram.
The officials of the British embassy
in Washington share the jubilant feel
ing existing in London over the termi
nation of the Avar in South Africa.
They view with much satisfaction the
close of the long struggle. ,
Offical notice of the signing of the
terms of surrender came to Mr. Rakes,
the British charge, in ?, cablegram
from the foreign office. It was very
brief and Avas in accord Avith the state
ments contained in the Associated
Press dispatches.
President Roosevelt.was furnished a
copy of the Associated Press dispatch
giving the news of the signing of the
surrender terms.
The impression prevails in official
circles that the terms of surrender
named by the British in their negotia
tions Avith the Boers have been very
liberal in character, perhaps from the
double desire to bring the Avar to a
close and to have this happy event
formally proclaimed before the coro
nation of King Edward.
From a commercial point of view,
the cessation of hostilities will result
beneficially to American exports to
South Africa, the report issued from
time to time by the foreign commerce
bureau of the state department show
ing that they have suffered considera
bly since the beginning of the war
several years ago.
