FORHER CONSUL TO PRETORIA MAKES
SENSATIONAL STATEMENT.
I TELLS OF Hi$ RECALL
Wives Some Inside Facts In Regard There*
to and Hints At a Secret Alliance.
A signed statement was given out
at Washington Wednesday night by
Charles E. Macrum, former United
States consul to Pretoria. In part it
was as follows:
“The situation in Pretoria was such
that, first, as an official I could not
remain there while my government at
home was apparently in the dark as to
[the exact condition in South Africa.
L “Second, as a man and citizen of
I he United States. I could not remain
fin Pretoria, sacrificing of the people my own of self- Pre
respect and that
toria while the government at home
continued to leave mein the position
of a British consul and not an Ameri
can consul.
“I want to say right here that there
was not one single request made of me
through the department of state look
ing lo the care of British interests in
Pretoria, which I did not fulfill and
report upon according to my orders.
On the other band, American interests
in South Africa were in that condition
r-hich demanded that the department
o! state should be cognizant of them.
“I issued the statement received
from the state department that Arneri
cans must remain neutral. In the
face of this, Americans were contin
ually going to the front and taking up
arms in the cause of the Boers. I
could not help but know that mtiny of
these were citizens of the United
States. I also know that many of
them, in their utter despair at the ap
parent attitude of our own govern
meat, were taking the oath of allegi
ance to the Transvaal republic.
“When affairs had reached that
state my vice consul, Mr. Yan Amer
iagen, closed up his business, took the
oath of allegiance to the republic and
went to the front as a burgher, I
thought the time had come when I
should make a report of these condi
tious.
“It was over four weeks from the
time the war opened before I received
a single dispatch from my government
or a personal letter.
“The mail for the Transvaal had all
been stopped at Cape Town by order
of the high commissioner. When this
mail was finally forwarded to me after
Colonel Stowe, the consul general at
Cape Town, had secured its release,
I had the humiliation as the repre
sentative of the American government
of sitting in my office in Pretoria and
looking upon envelopes bearing the
official seal of the American govern
meat opened and officially sealed with
a sticker, notifying me that the cou
tents had been read by the censor at
Durban.
“I looked up the law, but failed to
find anywhere that one military power
can use its own discretion as to for
warding the official dispatches of a
neutral government to its representa
tive in a beseiged country.
“The misrepresentation which had
going on before the war and af
ter it opened, were of such a serious
nature and would requiro such de
tailed explanation, that on the Gth of
November I filed a cable to the de
partment in code,stating that I wished
a leave of absence in order to visit the
states.
“I set forth in this cable that my
xice consul had enlisted in the Boer
ar my; that Mr. Atterbury,. an Ameri
can, whom I bad known very favora
“On the 4th of December I received
a blegram reply from the department to a ca
of the 14th, which I had been
informed two days previously had
been forwarded. It read as follows:
“ ’You may come homo. Put Atter
bury temporarily in charge. Depart
nieut will send man from here.’ This
bled was signed by ‘Hay.’ Thereupon I ca
the department as follows:
‘‘‘Sail 18th by Naples.’
PLUMBERS HAKE DEMANDS.

Fixed Wage Scale.
The plumbers and gas fitters of Sa
vannah, Ga., are on a strike. They

which they want fixed at eight hours
ffit a day’s work. They want the scale
0{ ^y, wages fixed at $1.51)' 82 and $3 a
The according to experience. that
employing plumbers assert
the strike will Dot materially affect
them and declare, if necessary, they

Disastrous Equincxial Storms.
The gales of equinox have scarcely
ev er exceeded in force the storm
^uich <la y. leaving swept in over its New wake England damage Tues- by
°odthat is almost incalculable.
“Blind Tijer’’ Unearthed.
^ ‘‘blind tiger” establishment was
found vanning at full blast in connec
lQ n with the county home of Union
anty, Two negroes were pro
PDetors of the establishment.
“I come home to find an attempt has
been made to tear down my personal
reputation. I wish to state right here
that when I accepted my post as con
sul, I knew nothing of any secret alli
ance between America and Great Bri
tain, and that I had seen nothing in
the regulations which made the consul
of tho American republic subject to
the whims and caprice of an English
military censor at Durban. I came to
America with a motive of which I am
not ashamed.
“I appreciate the seriousness of the
conditions in South Africa to the ex
tent that on my way to Washington,
believing that I was still the consul in
Pretoria, I refused to make any state
ment that would in any way involve
the department or embarrass it. My
one object was to lay the information
before the department as to the true
state of affairs in South Africa. If the
department thought these facts were
of a value sufficient to warrant the
expense of the trip I had taken. I
expected to be remunerated and to re
turn to Pretoria, leaving the depart
ment to act as it saw fit upon the facts
which I laid before it.
SECRET ALLIANCE HINTED.
“Instead of this, I find that Secre
retary Hay, whether acting upon the
reports in the newspapers, or upon
advice from the British government,
or some other motive, I do not know,
has seen fit to wait until I could pre
sent my reasons in person, and has
been a silent or conniving partner to
discrediting reports of my official
acts.”
CROSS THE BORDER.
Britons, Under French, Enter Or
ange Free State For the
First Time.
Advices from London state that th«
British army, for the first time since
the war began, is inside the Boer fron
tier.
Lord Roberts, with at least 40,000
infantry, 7,000 cavalry and 150 guns,
bas_turned the Magerfontein lines be
fore which the British forces have
been encamped for ten weeks, and
with half of his corps, he is already
operating on Free State territory.
Large tactical advantages have been
gaiued. The relief of Kimberly is
within measurable reach, and the way
to Bloomfonteiii is appreciably easier.
The dispatches of Lord Roberts
sketch three days’ work. The forward
movement began on Sunday, Feb. 11th,
when Colonel Hannay set out with a
brigade of mounted infantry for Ra
mah, on the Riet, eight miles from
Jncobsdal, one of the Boer supply
bases.
On Monday, February 12, General
French, with the cavalry division,
seized the crossing of the Riet river,
at Dekil’s drift, south of Jacobsdal
and eighteen miles east of Honey Nest
kloof. He skirmished with the Boers
and cleared the way for twenty thous
and infantry, who followed across.
On Tuesday, with his three cavalry
brigades aud horse artillery, General
French rode to the Modder river, a
distance of tweuty-five miles and took
three fords, with high ground beyond
the river and five Boer camps.
He had a few casualties in brushes
with the Boer horse. General French
has now fixed himself on General
Cronje’s main line of communioation
with Bloemfontein, and 20,000 in
fantry with seventy-two guns are be
ing pushed up to support him there.
DEBATE FINANCIAL BILL.
A Test Vote Taken Which Shows Ap
proximate Majority.
Throughout its session Wednesday
the senate had the financial bill tinder
discussion.
At times the debate became spirited
and interestinc'. Late in the after
noon a test vote, indicating approxi
matelv the majority on the passage of
the bill, was taken.
Mr. Chandler, of New Hampshire,
offered an amendment, to authorize the
president to appoint commissioners to
any international bimetallic confer
ence that might be called and it was
defeated by a vote of 45 to 25.
CRONJE’S TROOPS DISPERSED.
Lord Roberts Sends News of General
French’s Successes. *
The London office makes public the
following dispatch from Field Marshall
Lord Roberts:

LE ™
Tells of His Enjoyment When
* Children Are Around.
THEIR PRESENCE A GREAT COMFORT
They Sweeten Life and IJrlve Away Cares
Other Toj.le* Touched
IT pon.
The best earthly antidote for mclan
sholv is to mix up with a lot of innocent
children and join in their little sports.
I have the blues sometimes aud this
always gives relief. They make me
forget myself. I don’t know how a
man gets along without them.
When little troubles make me sigh,
Or feeling sad and ean’t tell why,
These children bring serenity.
George Francis Train is now an old
man and has seen lots of trouble. He
was an eloquent, gifted crank, and
made qtite a noise in but the world thirty
and forty years ago, was never a
success,'and so he soured on the
world and swore off from it. He de
dared that man was a fraud, a hypo
«it« and woman ... ™k and help
less, and that little children were the
only happy and uucontaminated crea
tures in this wicked world, and the
only society he should mingle with as
lonff as he lived It has now been
i i.» BU'nrs
off and from that time h his daUv daily habit habit
has been to visit some park in New
York every day and take a basket of
confections or fruits and all his pock
ets full and make headquarters on the
same park bench and gather around
him u itv . o a score or two “ iun« fnlk-q 10 '^, and u
feed them and play ith the ,; a -
ten to them as they laugh and romp
and frolic.
They all know him and love him
and run to him when he comen like
little chicks ' run to the old hen’s call.
I T , him • once and i drew -I near witu : t i a
saw
friend to hear what he was telling the
ohildren, but he spied us and stopped
talking and soon moved away to an
other seat and the children followed
him. Before the civil war I heard him
make an outdoor speech at Rochester
to a very large audience, and he ad
vocated the policy of the government
issuing ten thousand millions of
money so that every man could have
his pockets full and every woman her
bosom full and then, said he, we would
build railroads and canals and docks
and churches and ships aud steam
boats and monuments and live like
kings and princes. The government has
the right to issue it and has the presses
to print it and why don’t thev do it and
give it away to tho people and make
everybody happy?”. Just then a conn
tryman cried out: “But hold on,
Train, wouldn’t there be a collapse
after awhile?” Train looked at him
with contempt as ho replied: “Why,
of course there would. Any fool would
know that, hut the railroads and docks
and canals and churches wonldent col
apse They w-ould be there, wouldent
th 7 ! lld ?, e °:r d y l lle( V H U
rah ; for Train!” ,p It was hard * to tell * n
whether he was a fool or a pb.Ioso
pher. His redeeming trait is his fond
ness for children.
These little chaps that come to my
house are my daily annoyance and my
daily comfort. They make trains on
ihe floor with my books and mess up
my table and draw ponies aud dogs or
make me do it. One of them turned
over my ink yesterday aud seemed very
Borry aud said: 4 4 Gran’pa, I so
sorry, I beg my pirdou. I won’t do
it any more—will I?” aud she put her
little arms around my neck and kissed
mo. She made me glad that she had
spilled the ink. Some of them are
making speeches now and will back up
against the wall and make a bow and
go through “Orphan Annie” and
,,Mary’s Lamb” and “Annie Bell” like
a school boy, and then I love to glance
at the mother to see the sweet, proud
loqk upon her face. That look seems
to say that is my child; isn’t she smart?
And then I glance at my wife, tho
grandmother, and her contented look
seems to say: “My grandchild, if it
hadn’t been for me that child wonldent
have been here.” Well, that’s a fact.
There is never any doubt about who
is the mother of a child.
Blessed children; what do they care
about our world of trouble—whether
Goebel lives or dies, or the war in Af
rica or the Philippines, McKinley or how many
negro postmasters appoints.
They don’t know' how grieved I am
that Senator Morgan is likely to be
defeated—that great aud good man
whom the nation delights to honor.
Yes, defeated by machine politics and
unclean methods. Yerily, it reminds
me of wbat Carlysle said: “England
has a population of 30,000,000—most
ly fools.” I think they might let him
stay there until he finished his life’s
great work aud built the Nicaruuga
canal. Oh! the shame of it. I wish
'ihat I was a little child and didn’t
know it. I am grieved, too, because
jur Senator Bacon has had a fall and
broken his ribs, for w'e heed his pres
iEce in the senate; and now while he
is down in bed some more machine
politicians are laying plans to oust
him. I tell.you, my friends, I have
no patience with machine politics.
Look at Kentucky. See how the state
is torn and disgraced and I say now
that no gentleman or patriot would
have done it.
Goebel and Taylor and the whole
concern should have said: “Well, I
didn’t know that my candidacy was
going to get up all this bittor and
dangerous fuss and make enmities
that will never be healed, and so I
I will withdraw from the contest.”
I assert boldly that a gentleman and a
patriot would have said that and dono
it. It is a mean contemptible, selfish
ambition that has produced all this
trouble in that gland old state and re
vived its ancient name of the dark
»ud bloody ground. I wish that I
mas another little child and didn’t
know it. Hamlet said: “A politician
Id circumvent God. ” So I reckon
you
jliis kind of corruption is no now
thing. It goes back to the time when
Brutus killed Caesar. Yes, it goes
'vack to the time when Absolorn tried
to circumvent his own father and de
pose him from the throne and Jacob
cheated Esau ont of his birthright.
Belfistiness is the cardinal sin of man
kind—the trump card of the devil in
seducing us to his allegiance.
There is another antidote to melan
choly; it is work, and I long to go at
it. The winter has been long and hard
and I am impatient for the time to
come when the flowers shall appear on
the earth and the singing of birds shall
come and the voice of the turtle be
heard in the lands. I want to straighten
up things in the garden and dress it off
aud see how many roses have been
