Special Cabs Despatch to TUE suH.
LONDON, Aug. "a despatch to the Exchange
Telegraph Company says that the town Of Abu
Hamed, an important stronghold of the Khalifa
Abdullah in the Soudan, has been captured by
the Anglo-Egyptian forces after q severe en-
eaRemont.
Abu Hamed Is the most important place on
the Nile between Berber, the rendezvous Of
caravans from tho east, north, and the south,
and Dongola. where the British established
themselves last year. In their advance from
Dongola the British. Egyptian forces have trav-
elled up tho Nile, passing the Fourth Cataract,
which is a serious obstruction to navigation only
in time OF low water. Reaching Abu Hamed
they have advanced over 200 miles from their
starting point In Dongola, and have covered
moro than half the distance between DongolA
and Berber. DE-.
Abu Hamed derives its greatest Importance
from the fact that 1t Is at this point that the
Nile abruptly ceases to flow to the northwest.
but turns sharply to tho southwest, and de-
scribes a great curve, which Is completed only
about $50 miles further north. In order to
avoid this enormous detour, caravans travel
ing DOIn nOrtn ana BOutn quit inc MIG anu tOl-
low the seven or eight days desert route among
the rocks and sand between Abu Hamed and
Korosko.
Abu Hamed would be o large town II IL were
not that the great desert extends to the banks
Of the Nile. As 1t Is. the port where the cara
vans leave the river IL going north, or load
their freight upon the river boats II going south.
10 little more than a group of poor cabins inhab-
tied by camel drivers and fishermen. or late
years. however. the place hus been occupied by
q Mahdist garrison. it's strategic Importance
being greater than that of any other town be-
tween BORDER and Dongola.
A curious fact about this point of transship-
ment in the desert is that no houses are required
to protect the bales of goods that may be left
there. Merchants simply deposit their freight
in the sand under the protection of the great
monument dedicated to Saint Abu Hamed. and
when they return, after months or years, they
find their property just as they left 1t under the
shadow Of the veneratod tomb. At least this is
the story which Cailliaud tells in his "voyagea
M6roe."

ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 9.-ThC evidence at the
trial of the men who were arrested for mu-
tilating a young girl in order that her con-
dition might excite pity and thereby in
duce the benevolent to give money to her has
revealed the fact that the principal prisoner,
whose name is Praniitschenko, was chief of a
beggars' league which operated in South Russia
with great success.
He founded an establishment for the purpose
Of making children cripples, and received rs Der
cent. OF the money and other things given 10
them when they were sent out TO ueg. He DOS
sessed a large house At kicf, where he lived in
luxury, and was regarded as u benevolent capt.
talist.
THE SUN on July z last told In q st. Peters
burg despatch Of The hideous practices of this
gang OF South Russian bGggars.
One OF their victims, whose mutilation led to
their arrest, WAS all S-ycar-old girl. She WAS
stolen from her parents. gagged and taken to a
cellar, where her abductors discussed the man
ner in which they would mulilate her. They
nnally smeared her lace with pitch, which was
then set on tire. Her lace was terribly burned
and she WAS made blind.
Then her torturcrs disjointed her fingers 30
that her hands were practically useless, and cut
her feet SO that she could not walk without
limping.
The facts came to the nowledge Of the au-
th0rlties. and the gang were arrested. The
girl said that while she was in the cellar she
saw the bodies OF Two boys. who. presumably,
had succumbed to tho fortunes inflicted upon
them.
