BOERS NOW TAKE TH OFFENSIVE
RECAPTURE A RIDGE.
Gen. Joubert Attempting a Flank Movement—
Has Crossed to South of the Tugela—
Buller to Make Another Dash.
The most important news from South
Africa Sunday morning is conveyed in
a dispatch from Duoban. which says
that Gen. Joubert is marching with
6,000 men to outflank Gen. Buller. An
alarm was given in the Boer camp on
Friday night that Gen. White was try-
ing to cut his way out of Ladysmith,
but nothing seems to have come of the
attempt, if it was made.
“The Boers have occupied Bloys
farm, south oi the Tugela. which is
under an hour's ride from Chieveley
and have turned the homestead into a
hospital. On the farm are hills com-
manding both bridges over the Tugela,
_ as well as Forts Wylie and Molyneux.
and from which a view of Bulwana
and Ladysmith is obtainable. There is
much apprehension here regarding the
Boer movements and the authorities
are on the alert.’
A dispatch from Frere Camp. dated
Sunday, said all was quiet there. The
British troops were resting and the
Boers were inactive.
The latest reports irom the front,
showing that Buller abandoned Va
Krantz and retired across the Tugela
because the Bger guns could shell him
out of his position, and that he intends
to make another dash for Ladysmith,
destroy the comforting and ingenious
theory that the movement was an elabo-
rate feint to facilitate the main advance
of Gen. Roberts. he dating of mes-
sages from Frere camp may indicate
that Buller has withdrawn all his forces
there.
Even the most sanguine persons be-
gin to see it almost hopeless to expect
the relief of Ladysmith, while it is clear
that if it be impossible for Buller to
reach Ladysmith it is equally impossi-
ble for the garrison, exhausted by sick-
ness and privations, to cut a way out.
The fact that Gen. Roberts arrived at
Modder river Friday seems to show
that he has been on a round of inspec-
tion of the chief commands and that
the main advance is not so near as has
been supposed.
i.ondon was astonished and dish
ened Friday afternoon by the publica-
tion of the following dispatches, dated
on Thursday at the Boer head laager,
l.adysmith:
“The British who were in possession
oi the kopje at Molens drift abandoned
it after a bombardment by Boer cannon
Thursday morning and retired across
the Tugela river to their former posi-
ton. A desultory cannonade is pro-
ceeding at the Tugela, but otherwise
everything is quiet.
As tending to confirm the above this
dispatch from the same source. dated
Wednesday, was posted:
“An armored train Tuesday made a
Chieveley towards Colenso
and landed 2.000 British troops on the
right of the Boer position. The Boers
immediately crossed the river and made
at attack with rifles and artillery, forc-
ng the Vihirey al of both the train and
the troops to Chievele)y The fighting
on the Upper Tugela river lasted until
sortie from
8:30 Tuesday evening. Firing at both
Colenso and along the Upper Tugela
Las been proceeding since 3 o'clock
Wednesday morning.
While Buller has been forced back in
Natal an unpleasant story comes from
the western border that Methuen has
ordered a retreat irom an advanced
position.
Col Plumer's force attacked the Boer
position near Ramonsta and after heavy
fighting, including an endeavor to take
the place by storm, the British were re-
pulsed. Their loss is unknown. N
Boers were injured.
JOHN D. ROCKFELLER RETIRES.
Some Motive for His Giving up Presidency cf
Standard Oil Company.
John D. Rockefeller has resigned the
presidency of the Standard Oil Com-
pany of Ohio to avoid being draavn in-
to future investigation of its affairs. He
will be succeeded by A. M. McGregor,
vice-president of the New Jersey Stand-
ard Oil Company.
It is believed that this move is mere-
ly one of expediency. as the State Su-
preme Court has decided the Anti-Trust
law of Ohio constitutional and a fur-
ther investigation of the Standard is
likely by Attorney General Monnett of
that State. This action by Mr. Rock-
efeller will probably avoid the necessity
of his testifying at such a hearing. Mr.
Rockefeller will, it is generally believed,
continue to direct the affairs oi the
Standard as he has in the past.
Frank Rockefeller has also retired as
vice-president. and F. H. Squire. of
Cleveland. has been chosen for that po-
ion. The Ohio corporation in which
these changes are made is really the
controlling organization of the Stand-
ard Oil Company

erate Criminalt™iain Their Liberly
in Kentucky.
” There was a jail delivery at Louis-
ville, Ky., Saturday evening. Red
Ferg, Thomas Kelly, Henry Gard-
ner, George Gorman and George Mec-
Elroy, five notorious criminals, made
their escape from what is known as sec-
tion No. 5 which was heretofore
thought to have been the safest part of
the structure. By the use of files they
cut a sufficient portion of the roof of
their cell away and effected an exit.
When they reached the wall of the
building they dug their way out by re-
moving the bricks. By a daring climb
along a narrow cornice they reached
the roof. Then they leaped across a
10-foot alley space to an engine house
heyond From this they made their
way_to the ground and disappeared.
Their escape was discovered only a few
minutes aiter they left the jail.

Not Much Yellow Fever.
A report of the vital statistics of Ha-

Mayor Davis, chief sanitary officer,
shows that in an estimated population
oi 220,000 there were 8.153 deaths from
all causes. Oi these 1,163 were irom
enteritis and 1,307 from tuberculosis.
Yellow fever occupies a relatively small
position on the list, 103 deaths having

tactics against the towns which the
Americans ve garrisoned. They
camp in the Is and maintain a con-
stant fire upon the American outposts.
When the troops y against them
they scatter, returning when the Ameri-
cans retire. They shoot burning ar-
rows and have thus burned a large part
of the town oi Albay. Most of the
ns in that province are prac-
&eserted except by the garri-
sons. Scarcely any oi the inhabitants
return to their home . They are camp-
ing in the interior. and it is supposed
armed insurgents prevent them going
back. It is reported that there is ‘much
suffering among them, owing to lack
of food. As a result of these condi-
tions, the hemp business in that section
is seriously hindered and ships going
for cargoes are compelled to take gangs
of coolies to do their loading. Hemp

The demand for Cuba is
greater now than at any time in the his-

tricts comes the information that it is
impossible to get suificient laborers,
and tobacco growers of Pinar del Rio
are offering them $3 per day. or three
times as much as ever before, and even
at this price are short many hundred.
This condition tells the story oi Cuba's
agricultural prosperity more eloquently
than it could otherwise be told. In
response to the demand there are ar-
riving in Havana now from the Canary
Islands irom 3.000 to 4,000 men and
boys each month. The immigration
statistics for 189g show about 45.000
passengers landed at this port, of whom
25,000 were immigrants.

repeatedly that it was his evidence that
acquitted Goebel of the charge of mur-
der. He_was very bitter in his denun-
ciation of Goebel, and offered to bet
large sums of money that Goebel would
be assassinated before he reached the
gubernatorial chair.
He said a near relative of Goebel's
victim was pledged to kill the governor,
but in case he failed to keep his word,
others would not fail, and that he him-
self would, with his own hand shoot
Goebel before he got a chance to dis-
grace his native State by becoming its
governor. This was said several times
in the presence of reputable witnesses.

RELINQUISHED BY BRITAIN.
She Will Make No Objection to Our Entire Con-
trol of Nicaragua Canal.
The United States and Great Britain
have reached an amicable agreement re
specting the operations of the Clayton
ulwer treaty as affecting the right of
construction and control by the United
States of the Nicaragua canal. The re-
sult marks the termination of conier-
ences between the officials of the State
department and Lord Paunceiote of ful-
ly a year’s duraton. Great Britain
agre es to a modification of the Clayton
Julwer treaty by which she practically
relinquishes any claims respecting a du-
al control of the Nicaragua canal aiter
it shall have been constructed. The re
sult is to eliminate that feature of the
treaty bearing on the subject of dt
control and to leave the United States
free to construct and thereaiter control
this inter-oceanic waterway. In all the
discussions over the proposed canal the
question of England's rights under the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty has formed a
prominent feature, and on more than
one occasion has given rise to the query
whether or not the United States gov-
ernment had the moral right to pro-
vide for the construction oi the canal
without a modification of the treaty.
England has made no demands for za
quid pro quo for her abandonment oi
whatever rights she may have had un-
der the treaty and which she promises
to relinquish.

The weekly output of pig iron
February 1 was 208,014 tons, but stocks
unsold rose 20,300 tons in January, in-
dicating a consumption slightly smaller
than the output when the month began.
As the consuming works were naturally
stopped about the holidays more than
the furnaces, the figures prove little, but
bessemer and grey forge at Pittsburg
have not changed in price during the
past week, and slightly lower offers of
pig by southern and other new furnaces
at Chicago and eastern markets have
had little effect. It is more significant
that the decline of prices for some
weeks in bars, plates and sheets has
been checked. Large orders have been
taken for these and other products, in-
dicating that the works in need of busi-
ness may have obtained enough for a
time. “ailures for the week were 245
in the United States, against 217 k
vear. and 33 in Canada. against 33 1

MORMONS WILL LEAVE UTAH.
Owing to Gentile “ Persecution” They Wiil
Settle in Wyoming.
Arrangements for one of the biggest
colonization schemes ever engineered in
the west. have been completed at
Corey ne, Wyo.. where a portion of the
Big Horn basin in Northern Wyoming
will be settled by Mormons. For sever-
| al years a majority
iu tah have leit that they could not stand
the “persecutions” of the
| new country where they might build
their homes, new arrangements were
made with the Wyoming authorities for
the selection of 200,000 acres of land in
the Big Horn basin under the
ict. A committee of prominent

Wealthy Brothers Killed.
I William and John Newton, wealthy
{ bachelor brothers, were burned to death
{in the home of the former one mile west
{ of Portland, Ind., on Monday morning.
The fire was discovered by a neighbor,
but when he reached the burning house
he was too late to render any assistance.
In the rear of the ruins were a number
of chairs and a bundle of papers which
had evidently been carried out. All of
them were covered with blood. No
actual evidence of foul play has been
discovered. William Newton was 73
vears old, and one of the wealthiest men
in the State, his estate being estimated
at £1.500.000. Both men were eccentric
and lived in the most frugal manner.
Militia Standing.
Secretary Root has sent to Congress
his annual report on the organized and
unorganized militia. It shows that the
country has 10,343,152 men capable oi
bearing arms. Of this number 106,330
are in the National Guard, an increase
of about 2,000. Pennsylvania has 10,-
036 men in the National Guard, and
912,064 available for military service.
Ohio has less than half as many Na-
tional Guardsmen, the total being only
4.481, and 630,000 men available for ser-
vice. West Virginia's Guard has 083
men, and 125,000 available.
Object to Further Aid.
Hon. Joseph Israel Tarte, Minister of
Public Works, Montreal, is strongly
opposed to sending any more Canadians
10 South Africa. His paper, La Patrie,
s “The country has already spent
oy $2,000,000 to send two contin-
gents to Africa. If we are to take part
in all the conflicts of Europe, instead
of developing our resources and im-
proving our country, we will spend our
money in armaments for wars in which
Canada has no direct interest.’
Bomb tor De Cassagnac.
Some considerable excitement was
caused in Paris by the announcement
that a bomb had been found in the win-
dow ledge ci the residence of Paul de
Cassagnac. on the boulevard Malesher-
bes, with the fuse lighted. The latter
was extinguished by a policeman. The
chiel of the municipal labatory said that
the engine would have done much dam-
age if it had id exploded.
No Lova for England.
It is officially announced in London
that Sir Edmund J. Monson, the Brit-
ish ambassador to France, leit Paris for
the south on leave of absence. The an-
nouncement is erally regarded as
important, Coming on top of the
known anti- British feeling in France, it
is thought the departure of the ambas-

law and has rejected the doubts of
Mr. Cleveland and his associates,

The company of Alabama coal opera
tors who are shipping coal to points on
the lower Mississippi by water from
enville, Miss, have secured a con-
tract to furnish 150,000 tons to the
Texas & Pacific Railroad Co. during the
| present year. It is understood that the
Texas & Pacific has hitherto secured a
i portion of its coal from Pittsburg. The
Southern Railway Co has been encour-
aging the coal trade along the Mississ-
ippi by giving the operators all the fa-
cilities possible. It has secured a large
fleet of towboats and barges. which take
on cargoes at Greenville. In addition
to this contract, about 100,000 tons
| more, it is calculated, will be shipped to
New Orleans and other points during
1900, making at least 250,000 tons which
will go by the water route.
The Joseph R. Foard Co., of Balti-
more, has secured a contract to trans-
port 5,000 tons of coal from Baltimore
to Santiago. Cuba. This coal has been
purchased by the government. As the
extensive iron ore mines near Santiago
furnish a portion of the ore for the fur-
| naces - of the Maryland Steel Co. at
Sparrow’s Point, the shipments of coal
would give cargoes both ways, and may
be an advantage in securing cheaper
