NEWS FROM SOUTH AFRICA.
CAPTURE OF FUGITIVE REBEL. AN UNPOPULAR PEER. By Telegraph.—Press Asin.—Copyright. Received June 7, 1.5 a.m. Capetown, June 6. The Minister for Finance has announced, in connection with exchange dumping duty, that where the value of imported goods is within ten per cent, of the world value, the dumping duty would not be imposed. The fugitive rebel Bondelzwarts was overtaken at Haibund, north of Orange River. Fifty-seven were killed and a hundred wounded. The Protectorate casualties were four wounded. The Cape Times states that Lo»'d Robinson’s peerage has received spontaneous disapproval throughout the TTnion, and is likely to have a regrettable effect on the loyal affection of both races for the Royal House. The paper suggests that if such an insult to South African opinion is ever repeated on the initiative of the British Government the Union Parliament will do well to express its views about the granting of peerages to South Africans by a formal resolution, as the Canadian Parliament has already done. —Aus.N.Z.
