THEY GIVE IT UP Boer Envoys Realize That the U. S. Won't Interfere THEY TALKED TO MCKINLEY Who Confirmed \Vhat Secretary Hay' Had Al- ready Told Them, That There Was No Chance of U. S. Interfering Washington, May 22 -Messrs Fisch er,Wessels and Wolmarans, the three Boer envoys, who ate now in this country, visited the White House at 10 o'clock this morning, accbrding to previous arrangement, to pay their respects to the President. No official status was given the visitors and they presented no credentials. The envoys were received in the blue parlor, no one being present but themselves, the President and Secretary Cortelyou. At first the conversation touched uo p na- variety of subjects. The Boers talked about Washington; told how they ad- mired the city, and the president es corted them to the pyroh, a t :.the i rear of the executive mansion, where a splendid view is obtainable of the Washington monument and the Poto- mac River. President $ruger's name finally was mentioned and the visitorsthen stated their purpose in coming to this country. ,• They said they understood that what SFcretary Hay told them yester- day was final, and that the position of, the 'United States was that this, coon - .try could not interfere in the present struggle in South Africa. The Presi- dent confirmed this view. He said that the action he took some time age when, at the request of the ,govern- ment of 'the Transvaal, that his gov- ernment intervene, he offered his good offices to Engiand to bring about peace, he did evitb "great pleasure in h o the hope that it• 'might m ght possibly bring the conflict to an end This offer had been declined by Great Britain, and there was nothing further that the United States could do in the pre- mises. 'The envoys intimated that they were glad to feel they had friends in this country, and then bade the Pre- sident good-bye.

It provides that henceforward no bank notes shall be issued to meet requirements of the treasury. This liquidation is regarded as an Indication that rhe imperial treasury will nor need further loans to meet budget 'expenditure. In 1881 the war debt of the trea- sury to the hank of Russia aggre- gated 964,000,000 rubles. When M. Dewitt, Ru -an minister of finance assumed his portfolio in 1892, the de- bars still totalled 742,000,600 rubles. This entire atnoant: has been ex- tinguished within less than eight years, THE PLAGUE IN EGYPT Cairo, May 18. -Ten fresh cases of the plague have occurred at Port Said and one at Alexandria in the last four days. Great sympathy is felt with the inhabitants of Port Said,to whom the quarantine is a ;great misfortune, as the prohibition of cultivation must be to the fellaheen. But that is no justi- fication for the 'attitude of some of the French newspapers, which protest against the imposition of the quaran- tine on the ground that this is not the epidemic known as the ptague,but a similar disease of another name. This conjecture is generally discredit- ed in medical circles.
