agitated constitutionally, but In vain. for
the reform of serious grionnun admitted
to be grievances by President Kruger
himself. and that as a last resource they
determined on an armed display by an In-
vitation to Dr. Jameson to come to their
aid If necessary.

They. however, during the sxlstonos or
the reform government placed themselves
under the Transvaal flag and uphold the
Independence of the republic and advised
Dr. Jameson's return.

Counsel pointed out that. owing to‘prs-
vlous rebellions of the hurghars them-
selves, local laws had been wooed provld-
log for 500 rlxdollars fine for treason.

The stnte attorney. jiowovor. was ex-
tremely relentless In life address, urging
the severest sentence possible. and Judge
Grogorowski sentenced Hammond, Phil-
lips, Rhodes and Farrar to be hanged and
remaining 70 to be imprisoned for two
years, to pay a fine of 0300. or in default
of payment an extra year's Imprisonment
and to undergo three year imprisonment.

The Argus says:

”The awful sentences will create a pain-
ful sensation throughout the civilised
world. "

Hammond was accompanied by Dr.
Schultz. his medical adviser and his fami-
ly, as It was feared a relapse might take
place.

Accordingly the doctor was In attend-
ance when nuance was pascal. but llam-
mond bore up like hls comrades, courage-
onsly.

Meanwhile a flame of native warfare Is
spreading throughout South Africa. A
serious uprising has occurred In the Ger-
man Domaraland, 50 soldiers hnvlng been
attacked at a station In the cast. near the
British territory. Two officers, Lamps
and Schmidt. and four troopers were kill-
ed. but natives numbering 000 were do-
fasted, with a loss of so.

It In alleged the natives were well sup-
plied with modern rifles by British traders
on the east and Portuguese on the north.

Among the other members of the reform
committee who were sentenced are four
Arnoricans—a-Captnln Melu, chief engineer
of the Robinson Gold Mining company:
Victor 1!. Clement, assistant consulting
euglnriofr of the Consolldhted Gold li‘lsida
Mining company: .T. 8. Curtis. awenlthy
mining engineer, who Is well known in
New York. and a Mr. Lawlsy.

They were each sentenced to pay a fine
of 010, 000. to undergo two years‘ Impris-
onment and then to be banished from the
Transvaal for three years.

 

Prisoners Again Tn Jnll.
anonla, April Bil—Tho men who
were sentenced to death by the high court
of Pretoria are agii In jail awaiting fur-
ther developments In the case.

The political atmosphere In sultry. and
It Is felt that immensely Important issues
depend upon the immediate actlon by the
president. Monster petitions to the exec-
utive asking for commutation and par-
don are now, being generally signed hero.
Excltefnent to still simmering and Is
awaiting developments.

The Beer jurors have signed a memori-
al to the government the contents of which
have not transpired. ' '

The state's attorney says that under the
Roman-Dutch law there is no other pun-
isbment for high treason than the capital
sentence.

The general public Is astounded at the
heavy sentences Indicted upon all of the
prisoners. All who are now In jail are
treated with special privilege.

The press correspondent had an Inter-
view with President Kruger in regard to
the situation. _

The president saId that be was earnest-
ly weighing In his mind the day's devel-
opments. His honor trusted that Johan-
nesburg would cnlrply nvvait the decision
of the government. The written judg-
ment. he said. could not be submitted to
the executive until Thursday. when the
matter would be promptly daclnwlth.

John Hays Hammond Is 38 years old
and Is a son of General Hammond. He
was educated at Sheffield Scientific school,
connected -wI h Yale college. for the pro-
fessIon of mi ing engineer and completed
his education at the mining school at
Freidburg. Germany, where he took high
honors.

Hammond has a splendid reputation as
a mining engineer. earned as a ult of
the display of his ability In the Ca Ifornla

025. 000 a year a few years ago to go to

subsequently increased to 060,000 a year.

that five of the leaders of the so called an

“I thereupon cabled to Sir Hercules
Robinson at Cape Town instructions tc
communicate the following to President
Kruger. ‘The government has just learned
that the sentence of death has been Impoo

committee. The government has no doubt
that your honor will commute the sen-

surcd parliament that this Is your houor's

A report Ia circulated and generally cred
Ited In the lobby of the house of comment-
that Colonial Secretary Chamberlain ad-
vlscd the surrender of Colonel Rhodes and
his comrades to the legal authorities at
Pretorla, and also advised them to enters

others to death. says: "The news absorb:-

LONDON. April "IL—The Times says In
an editorial this morning on thejudgment
of the high court of Pretoria: “The son-
tences were a complete surprise, but they
were regarded with eqnanlmlty solely be
cause It was perceived that they cannot be
executed. This applied with equal force
to the monstrous penalties against the
other prisoners than those sentenced to
death. We rely on. President Kruger's

 

, common sense. To execute these sentences

would 'be a crime from which we gladly
believe that President Kruger would
shrink. It would also he an egregious po-
litical blunder. It is hardly necessary to
discuss the certain consequences of the
execution of the sentences. The putwng
of one to death would kindle an lnexpia-
hie blood feud between the English and
the Transvaal Boers. No sober politician
can doubt the ultimate issue of a conflict
between Great Britain and the Transvaal,
whatever Its alliances.”

The Times this morning has a letter
from Pretoria which describes the In-
trigues which the correspondent says were
intended to prevent libernlmlnded judges
from presiding at- the reformers' trial.
The letter says thn‘t there has been an ex-
tensive German fmfnlgrntion of men spo-
clnlly fitted to supply a corps of highly
trclned soldiers at the shortest notice and
who are at the some time fitted for useful
trades.

“There Is no doubt." the letter contin«
ues. “that the largely increasing state ar-
tillery will soon be in German hands. Brit-
Isb subjects are being outrageously faxed
to find funds for this German invasion.

It is said that the plot originated and
was perfected In New York. with the as
olstance of the Insurgent leader In Cuba.
Tho first blow was to be struck a month
henna The revolutionary congress of
Cubftcs has felt for some time the necessi-
ty of seizing and holding a scamrt town
and has made several attempts to got put-
session of small towns on the coast of
Cuba.

Nuovltas the Place Selected.

Finally the congress decided that Nuo
vital, on 7 the northern coast, Puertt
Principe province, was the most available
point. It Is situated at the head of the
harbor of Nuevltas. which can he entered
only through a long, winding and narrow
channel. The harbor to well sheltered
from the sea and affords an excellent on-

vised a plan by which a formidable demon
otrnticn could be made at Nuevitas. In
order to' force General chler to send
strong bodies of troops to the eastern end
of Cuba.

It was deoldsd that It would be possible
to blow up a Spanish vessel as she passed
through the narrow channel to Nuevltas
harbor, and that the wreck would so com-
pletely block the entrance that no other
vessel could pass In to dislodge the rebels
after they had captured the place. The
rebel Insurgent president. . Clsnorcs. In
trusted the carrying out of the plot to one
of the members of the Cuban revolution
nry party In this city. The latter called
to his aid an adventurous young Ameri-
can. who began to perfect all the details.
It was not long afterward that the Span-
Ish. and American detectives were on the
trail of the Cuban plotters.

To Carry Arms and Dynamite.

Negotiations were entered Into bytho

Cuban agents for the purchase of a Cape ‘

Ann schooner. and a New England skip-
per was etr'iployed to navigate her. A
small steam tender was purchased, which
was to be carried on board the schooner.
The entire outfit had been estimated to
cost not more than 08.000

Those engaged In the scheme were
promised. In the event of success, 0100.000
and one-half of any prize money found on
board of the mall steamer to be trapped
and seized.

The schooner, tho Sphnlsh authorItIcs
learned, with her crew, was to sail from
this port as a fisherman. She would car-
ry, In addition to so days' provisions for
four men besides the crew. the steam ten-
der, coal for the tender. several small kegs
to be converted Into submarine torpedoes,
an electric battery and about two thou-
sand ponnds of dynamite. The schooner
was to take the far outside course. The
programme was to launch the steam teri‘
dcr at nlgbt when near the Cuban coast
and to work back and forth between the
shore and the schooner under cover of
darkness, using no ship lights. The men
who were to the wrecking of the Span‘
Ish cruiser. the dynamite and other ma-
terial were to he landed and concealed on
a plantation near the coast, close to the
entrance to Nucvitas harbor. From this
plantation the Cubans could reach the
channel and lay torpedoes at the only
point where a worship could pass In less
than two hours time.

Information received by the Spanish
authorities indicated that as soon as Nuc-
vitns should fall and the cruiser should be
destroyed strategic movements were to he
made around Pnerto Princlpc, Santa
Clara. Guibnra. Cardenas and other cast
ern points.
