England Feared Gen. Sir Herbert
Kitchener Had Been RepuIsed.


LONDON, Sept. 1.-The War Office was
relieved this evening by the receipt of

interruption Of news from the Soudan,
which gave rise to some uneasiness yester-
day as to the movements of the Anglo
Egyptian column now advancing toward
Omdurman, under General Sir Herbert
Kitchener 1t appears that telegraphc COM
munication was interrupted because the
wire beyond Massey island. about midway
between Metemmeh and the sixth cataract
Of the Nile. had been damaged by a severe
storm. Shortly after the arrival of this in
telligence came the following dispatch from
Massey island, dated Aug. 80. and forwarded
by messenger from the camp at the front
TO Massey
There have been glimpses of the enemy
during the last few days and the first skir-
mish took place to-day when an advance
guard of cavalry located a large body of
the Dervishes at a supposed outpost near
Kerreri, about eight miles north of Omdur-
man. The enemy showed a disposition TO
fight. beating war drums and displaying
battle bunting. The Montmorency troop
emptied a few Dervish saddles and three
gunboats steamed up the river in front of
the town and shelIed the Dervish position
The army's loss could not be ascertained
as the Dervishes were in hollow, but
fleeing troops could be distinctly seen. The

and under most violent conditions lola Wig
orously defended himself and protested his
innocence. He was upheld abroad and by
many of the leading men of his own coun-
try who were not in sympathy with his
prosecutors, but the fact that he had re-
vived the Dreyfus case and his expressed
intention of having the matter investigated
to the end were against him.
The anti-Dreyfus meeting on Jan. IL was
broken up by the supporters of the exile.
Mobs ruled the streets and bloody scenes
were enacted in Paris. where twenty men
were wounded. At the same time there were
outbreaks in London and MarseilIes. These
and numerous other riots were used by the
friends of Zoia as arguments to show that
there were secrets in the case which had
not been brought to light by the courts.

A Terrible Atlantic storm.

ATLANTA, Ga. Sept 1.-The storm
which has swept over southeast Georgia for
the past two days has put six counties un-
der water and paralyzed railroad and tele-
graph communication in that part of the
state. Armies OF railroad men are at work
on all lines effected. but are making poor
progress, as the rain continues. Many trains
from Atlanta and north and west are at
Tonnville, Ca, unable to move. Eight
inches of rain fell at Tennille in twelve
hours and the wind reached velocity of
sixty miles an hour. Bridges were wrecked
and houses and trees blown down, but so
far as known no lives were lost. The dam
age TO bridges and roads in Washington
county alone Is $4,000. Atlanta received a
touch of the storm to-day. The wind
reached velocity of thirty-1ive miles and
the rainfall was very heavy.

The One Thing Necessary.
Philadelphia Inquirer.

There is nothing to investigate concerning
the war The one trouble that we have had
able camps. Typhoid fever and disease have
played havoc. There is responsibility some
where for this. The truth is that we were
how to handle large bodies of men. There
is no occasion for partisan politics or for
partisan denEnciations. The thing to do is
for a proper board Of inquiry to concern
itself with every detail of the war from the
beginning to the end, and to go at it's work,
not for the purpose of finding a scapegoat,
but to discover the very. best methods to
prevent the occurrence of mistakes in the
future. Out of such an inquiry should come
a recommendation for the formation of a
general staff built upon the plans which
obtain in Europe.
We can make progress in military and
medical science only by experience. We
have had that experience and now let us

ONE-YEAR PENSION RECORD.
More Granted Last Year than During
Haxes,s Entire Administered ton.

Hayes's Entire Admin is ration.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 1.-The forthcom-
ing annual report of the commissioner of
pensions will show that the number of pen
sions allowed during the past fiscal year,
including the war of 1912. was 56,737, of
which 54,S52 were for soldiers and 1855 for
sailors. Four widows were reinstated and
two promoted, and sxty-four orphans and
relatives of soldiers were reinstated. One
hundred and thirty-nine eX-Union soldiers
were reinstated and 279 promoted.
The number of pensioners on the rolls
June 80, 1898, was S93714; amount paid for
pensions during the fiscal year ending June
80. 1898. $144. 651,S19; average value of each
pension $13l79. Comparison shows that
more pensions for service in the war of the
rebellion were granted during the last fiscal
year than were allowed during the entire
four years of Grants second term and the
entire administration of President Hayes;
that the amount actually paid for army and
navy pensions during the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1898. was largely in excess of the
amount paid either during the first or Sec
ond term of President Grants administra-
tons, and almost much was paid dur
ing the entire four years of President
Hayes administration.
Evans has issued an order prohibiting the
sending of pension checks to general de-
livery. The intention of the department is
to have all such checks delivered at the in
dividual local addresses of the pensioners.
Judge Rose for Justice Whites Place.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Sept 1.-The name
of Judge u. NJ. Rose, of Little Rock, has
been under consideration by President Nc
kinley for place on the peace commission
which will go to Paris to arrange the de-
tails of peace between the United States
and Spain Judge Rose is unaware of this
fact himself. but a letter has been received
in this city from the Presidents private
secretary stating that Judge Roses name
had been presented to the President for
consideration in the makeup of the COM
mission. This letter was in answer to one
written by a friend of Judge Rose, suggest
ing the eminent fitness of the latter for
the honor If he would accept it. The writer
stated that he did not know how Judge
Rose stood on territorial acquisition, but
he did know that there was not a man men,
toned for the commission who is better
equipped This letter did not reach Wash
ington until the President had practically
decided on the personnel of the commits
sion. Since then. however, 1t has seemed
probable that one of the commissioners,
Justice White will decline to serve. in
which event Judge Roses friends believe
he viii receive the appointment. Judge
Rose speaks French and German huently.
He has a national reputation as lawyer
and scholar.

Mitchell Republican:-Several mon tbs
ago the railroad commissioners OF South
Dakota ordered the Milwaukee . mpanv
to establish a PASSENGER train service
between Mitchell AMI Chamberlain, a
petition having previously been
presented to the commissioners asking
that such a demand be made. The case
has twice been argued before Judge
Smith, the first time the railroad CONF
pany securing the decision OF the court
and the second time the commissioners
were ahead. The last argument was
heard several weeks ago and the Mil
wankee company was allowed until the
18th of this mouth to make answer to
the then situation. Tho case wss heard
by Judge S,uith Monday evening. The
attorneys for the commissioners held
that the company llsd but to comply
with the order they issue comps ling
the railroad to establish the passenger
service. Mr.. Kittredge maintained that
the company had q right to be heard in
answer to the compliant. and to show
that the service could not be maintained
without a loss to the company. Judge
Smith ruled to the effact that the com
pany could be heard on that proposition.
and as a result the passenger train
service will not be realized for some
time yet. The case Will very likely he
