CAPE Town. Dec 2a-sir Henry Loeb. Gov
ernor OF Cape Colony. says that he has no rea-
son to accept as true the reports OF the mas
sacre by Matabeles OF Capt. Wilson and his
force.
LONDON. Dec. 2a-Maior johnson. who ar
rived here recently from Mashonaland. thinks
that the lack OF native reports OF disaster to
Capt Wilson's party is a hopeful sign. He
thinks Wilson's men exhausted their ammu-
milton. and thus were prevented from pursu-
ing Lo Bengua far from the ShangauL As
they must have had several wounded. he
argues. they were unable to get back over the
river.
They were likely to choose the route on
which they would have little fighting. and
Major Johnson believes this choice won Id have
confined Wilson to the Fort Salisbury or Fort
Charter route, As each fort is some 22O miles
from the Shanghai. Wilson would not be likely
to strike either road before the end OF next
week
II was reported some days ago that Wilson's
party had no food with them except what they
carried on their backs. This being so. and IL
their ammunition was exhausted. the idea Of
travelling over 700 miles through an unin-
habited country. when their friends were only
a little south OF them on the south bank Of the
Shangani River would seem to be about the
last thing they would think OF.

AMsRlCAN RAILWAY UNION.

Formation of the Greatest of Labor
 Organizations-The Strike and Boy
 cott to be Displaced by Arbitration.
 CHICAGO, April 16-The men who for several days have been laboring on the formation of the American Railway union yesterday completed the fret step in the enterprise, and have issued long doou- m ant setting forth the outline of one of the greatest labor organizations the world has ever seen. The union propoess to en- list, as far ss possible, all railway employees of every description, and its avowed object is the abolition of the strike and the boy cott as a means of settling difficulties and the eradication of the heavy taxes and dues which members of the various organiza- tions are now compelled to pay. In the prospectus issued 1t is claimed the present organizations of railway men never had much confidence in each other and have been unable to exist without jealousies and antsgonisms. These 1t Is proposed to wipe out by bringing all the men under one or ganization which deals with each man in- dividually. The founders claim that the new organization will in no sense conflict with the existing organizations of railway employees. It is designed primarily, they say, for the great numbers of men who be- long to no organization. There are to be ! no grand officers, no grievances. no secret | ballots. All difficulties between employe and corporations are to be adjusted without strikes, but at the same time with regard for the interests of the men. The scheme
 includes an employment bureau, and in
 suranoe department A meeting will be
 held Monday for eleoting officers. The
 men who have formed the union are E. V.
