WILSON DIED FIGHTING HARD.
Account of the Massacre BY Bel
gula.
BIZ Cable to the United Press.

CAPE Town, Jan. 13, 1894.-Advices from
a Matabele source which arrived here yester-
day, are to the effect that Captain Wilson
and his entire party, who have been reported
to have been annihilated by the forces of
King Lo Belgula beyond the Shangani
River, died fighting hard.
A native who arrived at Buluwayo states
that he was present when the Matabeles
made their first attack on Captain Wilson.
They at first thought that the whites
had numerous force, and retired
after the first skirmish. Lo Bengula, in
his wagon, fed for short distance, but,
learning that Captain Wilson's force was
numerically weak. the Matabeles We're
ordered to return and attack them. The
natives in overwhelming numbers fought the
whites, but the latter battled gallantly
behind the cover afforded them by
their dead horses. 1t was impossible,
however, for the whites to hold the
Matabeles in check, and their fire grew
weaker and weaker. Then the Matabeles
rushed in on the British, nearly all Of whom
were wounded All the live whites were
killed with assegais and stripped OF their
clothing and accoutrements
A party has arrived at Fort Tuli and re-
ported meeting a band of armed natives,
one of whom was carrying a rifle that had
belonged to one of Captain Wilson's men.

AN AMERICANS DISAPPEARANCE.
Young webster Thought to Have
Been Kidnapped.
By Cable to the United Press.

PARIS, Jan. IS, 1s94-The representative
of the United Press today visited the Mother
Superior of the Convent of La Dame de la
Providence, at Colombes, a suburb of Paris,
to learn if any new facts had developed in
the case of Edward Webster, the young
American whose family lives in New York,
who mysteriously disappeared on New Years
eve from the st. Lazare Railway station.
Young Webster was pupil in the Pensoin-
nat of Notre Dame du Sacre Coeur,
and had started to visit his foster sister,
Flora Atherton, and his cousin, Carrie
Boothby, who are at school at the convent in
Colombes He reached the Care St Lazare
safely, but since then no trace of him has
been found.
The representative of the United Press
saw the Misses Atherton and Boothby, both
of whom are deeply affected by the dis
appearance of young Webster. They said
they could offer no explanation of his dis
appearance. He is quite young, they said,
and innocent of any love affair.
1t was, of course, known among Websters
friends that he was OF a rich family, and 1t
is the impression at the convent that he was
kidnapped by some persons who are holding
him for ransom The Mother Superior said
that though an active police search was being
conducted so far as she knew nothing had
been learned of his whereabouts.
Webster lived at the house of Madame
Robot, No. Al Rue Aubepines, ColuInbes.
The representative of the United Press called
there and saw Madame Roizot, but she was
unable to throw any light on the subject.

POUNDED THE THIEF.
Exciting Scene in a Hoboken
Street Car--Poliee Out
Of Sight.

An attempt was made yesterday afternoon
to rpb M atthew Baader of Clinton and Wal
nutstreets, West Hoboken, on Willow
avenue horse car. The pickpocket succeed
ed only in securing Mr.. Baader's watch
chain, and in return was pounded half to
death. Baader, who is heavy man, six
feett inches in height, boarded the car
at Fourth street and Willow avenue. In
the ear sat two men who were conversing.
They appeared to be crooks, and Mr..
Baader kept his eye on them. When they
reach Fourteenth street and Park avenue,
on the way to the Fourteenth street ferry,
one of the men got up from his seat, and,
going over to Baader, placed his hand on
the htter's shoulder saying
THE ASSAULT
sfDo you know who owns those houses over
thereY'
AT that instant Baader felt tug at his
watch chain, and looking down, saw the fell
lows hand on the chain. He jumped up,
landing terrific blow on the mans head
which K knocked him against the side of the
car The companion OF the pocket picker
jumped from his seat, exclaiming:-
- you, knew you would make a
mess of it,
He made bolt from the car, leaving his
friend in the grasp of Baader, who was de-
nyef1ng upon nm shower OF blows. Baader
all the while was calling to the driver to
summon a policeman but the driver re-
fused, telling him to wait until the car
reached the ferry.
Baader held the man down until the car
reached the ferry. There the starter who
takes tally of the fares came in. Baader
asked him to assist with the man. He said,
when he had learned the story
"Oh, don't make fool of yourself that
way, Let the man go; you've hit him
enough
NO POLICEMAN IN SIGHT.
Policeman Kenny, who should have been
on guard there, was away somewhere.
Baader was determined to land the man in
prison, and clung to him with iron grasp.
When Kenny came to the scene the pick
pocket had been released. He had gotten on
a boat, but Kenny said it was not worth the
trouble to go after him.
Baader reported the conduct of the rail-
way employees to the company this morning
Mr.. Blackburn told him to prefer charges
against the two men, which will be done.

LEGATION BUILDING AT PEKIN.
New Edifice Now Occupied by the
American Minister.

New Ed1fice Now Occupied by the
American Minister.
WASHINGTON Jan. IL, 1894 Charles
Denby, our Minister to China reports to the
State Department that on the 18th of Octo-
Der, last, he moved into the new American
Legation Building at Pekin, a new two-story
edifce of nine rooms. Minister Denby says
it is the finest specimen of architecture in the
city, with the possible exception of the two
Catholic churches. The rent has been slight
ly increased and the department asks for an
appropriation of S., 600 for that purpose, this
being $500 more than heretofore appropri-
ated. Senator Morgan laid the matter be-
fore the Senate yesterday. None Of our
legation buildings are owned by the United
States. Several eastern nations have offered
to donate to the Government, suitable sites
if the United States would undertake to
erect legation buildings thereon The late
Mr.. s. S. Cox, when Minister to Constantine
ople, earnestly advocated the desirability of
the United States owning its legation build
ings, particularly in the east, but Congress
has always failed to take action upon the
matter, and the times are not propitious now
for pressing the question.
According to communication laid before
the House, there is a deficiency of $400, 600
in sight in the appropriation for fees of wit
ness in United States courts for this fiscal
year. The House is asked to take immediate
action on the estimate for the reason that the
regular appropriation for the payment of
witness fees is practically exhausted.
Attorney General Olney has sent to the
House a number of recommendations re-
ceived by him from the United States At
torney for the Indian Territory relative to
the trying of misdemeanors in the Territory.
The propriety is suggested of having the
Government represented before the Commits
sioner if he is given final Jurisdiction in the
misdemeanor cases, and it is urged that it
would be great saving in witness fees if the
commissioner had power to finally try de-
PENDANTS at such times as they are first
brought before him.

Miss May Barroweliff Suffered

Miss Barrowcliff's condition is such today
as to cause uneasiness to the police and DR..
Varick. She has passed bad night, but is
resting quietly this afternoon.
Warden Osborse said to NEWS reporter
who called at the Hospital this morning,
that Miss Barrowcliff was much worse last
night. Her temperature was 100 degrees.
Superintendent Smith, at two o'clock, the
time he had appointed for an audience with
the newspaper men, sent them word that he
had nothing to say in regard to the Barrow
cliff case
Dr. W. w. Varick announced this morning
that there was change for the worse in Miss
May Barrowcliff's condition. When qnes-
toned as to whether her condition was
alarming he answered in the negative, but
in a manner which displayed considerable
doubt

A LESSON IN DEMOCRACY.
A study of Dutch Influence ON the
Mind of New Enland.


There are good reasons, other than re-
igious. why these Englishmen who had lived
or had been born in the Dutch Republic de-
parted at so many points from ancestral pre-
cedents, and followed lines of development
distinct from those of their countrymen in
every part of the world, not excepting those
south of Delaware Bay.
Coming from the land of feudal holdings,
manors, primegeniture and entail, they at
once abolished these and other features and
relics of feudal society, and distributed prop
erty, when no will had been made. equally
among the intestate owners children. In
this radical procedure were they acting, as
Bradford in his history quoting a Dutch law
book says they did in their marriage customs,
according to We laudable custome of ye Low
Cuntries?n Or were they 'reverting," like
academic Students TO the primitive Ger
manic system Of towns (tutn, tom and COM
mon lands? Bradford, who was the chief
statesman of the Plymouth men, as Brew
ster was the theological and ecclesiastical
guide, remarks with practical wisdom on
marriage as being that upon which 'smany
questions aboute inheritances doe depende." I"
Whom did they follow, the ancient farmers
in the stmark' of Tacitus' time, or those of
the seventeenth century whom they saw be-
fore their eyes in the various United States
of Netherlands If the founders Of New
England were acquainted with the primitive
Teutonic social order, they have most skill
fully concealed their erudition
Rather, is it not more reasonable to sup
pose that they followed the precedent they
had seen in ''ye Low Cuntries," in which
were the common acres, pastures, forests, to
which daily issued out Of the town or dorp,
beers or farmerf, shepherds, {swine and
cattle, for work and food2 These things in
the late sixteenth and early seventeenth CEN
turies were not matters of antiquity or
archaeology. They were right before the
eyes of the tens of thousands of English folk
dwelling in the Dutch Republic. William
Elliot Grifis, IN Harper's for January.
