of the people and Of their political rela-
tions, together with his shrewdness and
courage. caused him TO be highly appre-
ciated. In 1883 he saved a whole detachment
of English soldiers by putting the enemy
on a wrong scent. For this service he was
appointed purveyor to the British troops, in
which capacity he set up business at As
souan and established branches in other
parts of the country.
In April, 1887, he set out on a journey,
ostensibly for the purposes of trade. with
a caravan of over forty retainers. Various
accounts were given of the object of lis
expedition, one being that it was under
taken with view of rescuing Slatin Pasna,
then a prisoner of the Mahdi. while osher
accounts represented that he was mersiy
trying to ascertain the position OF the en-
emy. Evidently recognizing the danger lac
was about to run. Neufeld, before leaving
Assouan, deposited his money in an English
bank and sent his wife and only child tc
his relatives at Leipsic. His apprehension
proved TO be but too well founded. Through
the treachery of an Arab. he and his whole
caravan were taken by the Derviabes- The
first report received after his capture was
that all in the party were beheaded. \ later
report represented that Neufeld had been
spared, but placed in fetters.
Finally letter was received from him
self, dated Khartoum, where he said he
was being treated in very friendly man
ner by the Mahdi. He nearly lost his life
when the Mahdi was told that Neufeld was
an English or Egyptian spy sent to ascer-
tain whether Mudir Mustapha Pasha was
favorable to the English. The Mahdi, high
ly incensed, declared that he regretted not
ed with chains and cast into prison, where
he remained four years.
Ultimately scarcity of powder arose
in the Soudan and Neufelds knowledge of
chemistry was brought into requisition for
its manufacture. 1t appears that ne col
lected saltpeter and made the explosive,
but the same narratives that gave this in
formation described him as still in fetters
and carrying iron rings upon both feet.
His next clever exploit was subsequent to
the death of the Mahdi and under the rule
of Khalifa. Neufeld decorated the tomb of
the Mahdi, whose dome the British gunboats
have just partially demolished. and did the
work so effectively that, according to Faith
er Rossgnoli, who escaped from Khartoum
in 1894, the widows of the prophet were
quite touched.
after that he became a mechanic and
still according to Father Rossignoli--'tried
all sorts of inventions and took the great
est trouble to construct a machine for MAX
ing coins. Meanwhile he appears to have
acted as editor Of the Khalifa's proclama-
tions, in addition to writing books and Illus
trating them himself, for limited cireula-
tion among the Dervishes. At the time of
the escape of Slatin Pasha it was feared
that Neufeld's life would again be in dan
ger, but this did not prove to be the case.

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.--General Miles
and army officials of between four thousand
and five thousand volunteers now en- route
to this country from Porto Rico, will not
parade in New York city or elsewhere, as a
body, upon their arrival The official an
nouncement of this fact was made at the
War Department to-day
The transports bearing General Miles and
the volunteers are expected to arrive off
New York next Tuesday. 1t was suggested
that the troops be ordered into camp some-
where in the vicinity of New York for a
few days and then signalize their departure
for their state camps by a parade through
New York city. The civil authorities of New
York canvassed the situation and finally
suggested that the troops be encamped at
Forest Park, between Brooklyn and Ja-
maica. When Governor Voorhees,, of New
jersey, arrived in Washington yesterday he
proposed to the War Department that the
Porto Rican troops be placed in camp at
Sea Girt, the New Jersey state camp
grounds. He renewed this officer in a con-
ference with Adjutant General Corbin. He
was Informed that it had been decided by
the department that the Porto Rican troops
would not be placed in camp at any point
in the East. but WOULD be sent Immediately

When the transports arrive in New York
harbor they will be met by officers with or
ders for the troops to proceed directly from
their ships to the trains. The officers will
have with them transportation for the en-
tire command. 1t is likely that the troops
will be landed in Jersey City where, after
being served with hot lunch. they will
board the cars, which will be in waiting
for their homes.
The quartermaster generals office gives
out partial list of troops on the way from
Porto Rico on the Obdam with General
Miles and his staff. There are nine COM
panies of the Second Wisconsin, numbering
eight hundred men and twenty-five officers
The very sick of this regiment are to have

in this city, by order of the surgeon gem

from which ne returned last night. He as
sured General Corbin that the health con-

so bad as they had been pictured by some

WAS NOT A HARD FIGHT.
Karl NeufeId Rescued After Years
with Dervishes.

CAIRO, Sept. 4, 2 a. m.-The following
dispatch, dated yesterday Saturday., has
lust been received from Nasriko: EARLY
this morning the Dervishes made most
determined attack on the Ango-Egyptian
forces; but, after an hours hard fighting,
we drove them off. At $50 a. m. a general
advance was ordered on Omdurman, and
again we were received with a determined
attack on our right, but the Dervishes were
once more repulsed with heavy loss. The
army, under the personal command OF the
Khalifa, was totally dispersed by noon. At
2 o'clock this afternoon forces advanced
again and occupied Omdurman. The Kha-
lifa fed during the forenoon, and is now be-
ing closely pursued by our cavalry.
ct is impossible now to give a complete
list of the casualties. The British loss is
estimated at about one hundred, the Egyp-
tian loss is probably two hundred. Karl
Neufeld was rescued unharmed."
Herr Karl Neufeld, who is referred to in
the foregoing dispatch from Cairo as res
cued unharmed from the Dervishes, fell into
the hands of the Mahdis followers in the
neighborhood of Dongola, in the late spring
or early summer of 1887. He was the last
European male captive of Importance re-
naming in the power of the Dervishes.
Various accounts are given OF his early
career According to the Neues Wiener
Tageblatt, Neufeld shortly after the conclu-
sion of his college course at Leipsic. where
he studied medicine, severely wounded an
opponent in duel. and was obliged to go
abroad. He settled as physician at As
souan, upper Egypt, where he practiced his
profession from 1879 to 1881. When the ris-
ing OF Mahomed Achmed took place in the
latter year Herr Neufeld was obliged to give
up his residence at Assouan.
While yet at the university he had given
many proofs of his hardihood Of character
and love of adventure, and he now joined
the English troops, during the operations in
the Soudan. as an interpreter Of the Arabic
