HAND TO-HAND FIGHT FOR AN HOUR
HUNDREDS OF ARABS CAPTURED.
Afafte, Egypt, via Sualiim. Feb. 21.-A severe
engagement was fought at Tokar on February 0
between the Egyptian troops who recently left
FL Teb, and Osman Dignas forces. Nearly 1000
lives were lost in the battle which followed the
appearance Of the Egyptians at Tokar.
The Egyptians made their advance during the
early dawn Of the morning of Thursday. The
enemy was sighted near Tokar and after an en-
change of shots between the skirmishers of the
enemy and the advance guard of the Egyptians
the latter pushed forward through the brushwood
surrounding Tokar and its ncighb0rhood, in order
to seize the old Government building now little
more than ruin, but which forms a strategic
point where a force of infantry could hold out
against heavy odds The dervisheS, seeing the
object of the Egyptian advance in that direction,
made a rush for the building and surrounded it by
a compact mass of Arab rilemcn, who poured a
hot fire into the ranks of the advancing ESyp-
tians The latter, however. were not to be checked
in their advance, returning the Arabs fire as they
advanced.
The Egyptians fixed bayonets when within easy
distance of the enemy, and charged upon the
defenders of the ruins. For over an hour
desperate hand-to-hand, bayonet to spear and
sword fight followed, during which the Egyptian
troops fought with the most determined bravery.
Finally the Egyptian cavalry made brilliant
charge upon the dervishes, who retired In dis
order. suffering a crushing defeat. The dcrvishes
numbered at least 1000 fighting men. About an
equal force of Egyptians succeeded in reaching
the shelter of the building before the Arabs sur
rounded them for the ats,ck.
After the retreat OF the dervishes the troops
found over 700 dead around the position men
toned, while large numbers of dead were lying
in the bushes around the buildings Nearly every
Emir Of importance who was present at the batt'e
fell upon the field. Osman Digna did not take
part in tie fight but watched lis progress from
a point near Afaftc. After seeing that his faith
ful followers had suffered a disastrous defeat
Osman Digna, accompanied by about thirty
horsemcn heI toward 1cmrn.

FOSTER SUCCEEDS WINDOW
HIS NOMINATION TOR THE VACANT POST
IN THE TREASURY SENT TO TIE SENATE

AN ABLE, CONSERVATIVE FINANCIER,
THOROUGHLY IL ACCORD WITH
THE PRESIDENTS POLICY.
IB1 TELEGRAPH TO THE rklBUNs.I
Washington, Feb 2I.-The President to-day in
accordance with the general expectation, NOM
mated Ex-Governor Charles Foster, of Ohio, to
MI the vacancy made in the Cabinet by the death
OF Secretary Window. II had bcco,ae pretty clear
to every one especially nfter the interview be
tween tie President and the CX-Govcrnor when
took place in Ncw-York n few days ago, that Mt
Foster would be chosen to succeed to the Secre
taryship of the Treasury; and the formal an
nouncemcnt of the nomination caused no surprise
at the Capitol. 1t has been well known from
The outset that a Western man would he selected
and that he would also represent most fully ana
clearly the views of the Administration and Jf
The party on financial questions. President liar-
rlson had, of course, under these circumstances Il
wide range Of choice and many available candi-
oates were presented in various Western States
Political considerations of different sorts, as
well as the nect sSty for avoiding double repre-
sentation in the Cabinet from single State, grad
ual!y narrCveU the field of selection practically
10 Ohio, and Mr.. Foster was finally chosen tS an
ONO Republican cminentlT equipped and tttcd for
the trying and oncrous duties Of the Secretary
ship Of the Treasury. II is understood that
the bX-ti0vernor was warmly recommended
for the portfolio by Senator Sherman. who could
not himself again undertake the burdens Of man
aging the country's finances. Mr.. Fosters seec-
ton was also favored by many other leading Ohio
Republicans, and will undoubtedly give great and
general satisfaction TO the party in that State.
Mr.. Foster has had a long and notably successful
career in the business and financial world. and
will bring TO the Treasury Department all the
qualifications necessary for its intelligent and
prosperous management. His we-knOwn political
training and experience will also be of important
service both himself and 10 the Administration.
II IS almost unnecessary 10 say that Mr.. Foster :
ideas on financial subjects are in full accord with
the Presidents and that his course in the Treas
ury Department viii be entirely sound. prudent
and conservative.
The appointment was received here to-day with
much favorable comment from Republicans in
both tie House and the Senate, and from Demo
Gratis aS well who knew and esteemed the newly
appointed Secretary when he WAS i'm public life
here "a member of the House Of Representatives.
Mr.. Fosters nomination will be promptly con-
trmed. and he Will doubtless take his place in the
Cabinet within week or ten days General
