John Hays Hammond the American engineer whose activity at Johannesburg while associated with the Rhodes mining interests at the time of the Jameson raid in 189G came near costing him his life at the hands of- the Beers Americas sympathies in the British-Boer conflict should be not with Oora Paul but with her majestys forces Mr Hammond gave expression to this view at a brilliant dinner given him a few days since in Chicago He spoke of the condition of affairs in the Transvaal prior to the war and took the opportunity to say that England was carrying on a just war and that the Boers were wholly to blame for the present difficulty Mr Hammond made the assertion that the Transvaal mining industry would never have achieved success were it not for tho fact that English capital and American ingenuity became interested and entered the field The Outlanders he said were invited to the territory by Oom Paul who when they had served his purpose denied them the right to ex ist there by reason of the oppressive laws JSP 138 wv jomr II ATS IIAMMOXD he directed against them The Outland ers paid nineteenths of be taxes and yet had little or no voice imthe government All that is wanted by the OuJanders said Mr Hammond is tbe establishment of the principle that there shall be no taxation without representation In Mr Hammonds opinion the pres ent strife was forced upon President Kruger by his inability to longer con trol the widespread conspiracy he had built up against England Oom Paul said Mr Hammond was waiting for a rupture between Great Britain and some other power when he would make his effort to attain independence For many years the Boers were actively pursuing a scheme of conspiracy foi driving the English from South Africa and were buying guns building fortifi cations and hiring foreign officers in anticipation-of a conflict It might be supposed that Mr Ham mond was prejudiced in the matter in favor of the English because of his participation in movements against the Boers but he claims this view of the matter would be wrong He spoke as an American he said and put the facts of the case plainly before his auditors Side Lights on e Boer War The health of the horses in South Af rica is a question which is worrying British officers almost as much as the health of the men On account of the lack of railroads and the quickness of the enemys moves mqunted troops are al most as essential as guns With the change from the dry to the wet seasons comes the danger to horses The average death rate among the horses now from sickness alone is about 25 per cent In some localities it has been known to reach 80 and even 90 per cent The dis ease works rapidly It often happens that a trooper is riding along when his horse begins to stagger then drops and dies on the spot Donkeys are immune to the disease but mules are not The Kafirs Basutos and Zulus are the native runners But it is not by run ning that they do the best of their work This they do by shouting their messages from hill to hill They are the South Af rican telegraph system The first news of the battle of Glencoe which reached England and America came to Cape Town in this way Whatever message is given by a native negro is never altered by any one who forwards it though it may be passed along by 2000 men The precise words that are uttered by the first man are the identical ones which the last one hears In the pursuit of Gen Cronje to Paar deberg some of the British regiments marched twenty seven miles in twenty four hours They got ahead of the trans port and the men lived on quarter ra tions When the white flag of surrender was displayed by the Boers a regiment stationed on a hill saw it and set up a cheer which ran down the lines and was taken up by the men in the trenches An officer dashed to headquarters with the news On Christmas day three Englishmen who had previously received passes to remain in the Free State were comman deered and ordered to proceed to the front They declined to fight against their countrymen and on the same day were taken to the market square at Har rismith and shot Well up to the front among the popu lar heroes of the Boer war is Bugler
