toward the Chartered Company after the
lat.er's completely in the Jameson raid

A dispatch from Buluwayo. dated May s,
says that Frederick c. Selous. the African
explorer. accompanied by a column OF
troops dispatched to meet the forces OF
Cecil Rhodes, with the forces of Col.
Plumber, who Is at the head of $50 men on
horseback or with wagons. is expected to
arrive soon.
Sixteen campfires OF the Matsbeles are
visible from Buluwayo. but the move
ments of the enemy remain an absolute
mystery.
The question as TO whether or not Cecil
Rhodes Is to retire from the directorate OF
the British Chartered South Africa Co. is
producing great excitement throughout
Nafabeieland. People there regard him as
necessary to the progress Of the company.
They also think that the chances that the
company will be able to make compensa-
ton for recent losses will be imperiled in
the event of his resignation. A monster
petition praying for his retention will be
presented to the government.
