SEVERE FIGHTING AT GLENCOE.
A Sortie From the Town Was Success
full. Beers Repulsed.

ooCrS nCputoGQ.
London, Oct. 21.-As indicated in
recent dispatches, the Beers are con-
centrating about Glencoe and Dun
dee. There was some skirmishing
between the cavalry and the advance
of the Beers. The Beers appeared
in force before Glencoe and they
finally got the range of the British
from the crest of a hill where they
trained their cannons on the British
forces within the town and were
doing considerable damage, when
the Kings rifles and the Dublin Fus-
ileers were ordered to charge the
enemy's position, which they did in
fine shape under cover of British
guns, 1000 yards distance. The Fus-
ileers silenced the Boer battery,
charging the Beers clear over the
hill, capturing five of the enemy's
guns. The fighting was heavy, the
Beers resisting stubbornly and
there was nothing like panic in their
retreat. They evidently expected
prompt assistance and it is likely
the entire Boer army is near at hand.
The British troops are in good spirits
and believe they can hold off the en-
tire army until reinforcements arrive
from Durham. British loses are re.
ported heavy.

Londan, Oct. 21.-A dispatch says
General Simmonds, commanding at
Glencoe, was wounded in an engage
ment with the Beers. The Beers re-
turned after they were driven from a
hill near the city and opened up a
terrific fire on the British, who are
hard dpressed. The fighting is furi-
Gus, but, as the English are behind
earthworks, the Boer fire does but
little damage.

movement of the crop sustain all the

THE COTTON MARKET.


New York, Oct. 10-The statement of the
department of agriculture came to hand
to-day, but failed TO seriously disturb the
preconceived ideas of bulls OF bears. In
fact, the market did not vary as much
as one point following the announcement
at midday, this being most unusual oc-
currence. There was a goodly number of
outside buying orders in evidence at the
opening, and these, in connection with the
bulish Liverpool advices, sent prices up
2GS points on the call: but after a few
moments of hrmness. prices went off rap

trade had been keyed up to "A high pitch
