Reached Bedrock.

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 13.-Another cut
of 81 in the rate from Seattle to Chi
cago to-day, making the second-class
fare $40. seems to have reached the bed
rock in the Generalization that has ex-
listed among the Western transcontin-
entail lines. There is no more business
to Justify further cutting, and 1t would
therefore seem that the end must be
reached in the next three or four days,
and the tariff restored to it's former

A Reconnaissance.

Estcourt, Natal, Nov 9. Thursday
evening-An armored train with COM
pany of the Royal Dublin fusiliers start
ed at half past this afternoon and
reached the break in the railway limo
about half mile from Colenso without
accident. Captain Hensley, with sew
eral men. reconnoitered and met a ma
tive, who said the Beers were occupy
ing the town. While the conversation
was in progress the Beers opened fire
from Fort Wylie, but did no injury.
Captain Hensley thereupon retired on
the train. after which the fusilers vol
leyed on the fort. A. there was no re-
Spouse, the presumption was that the
Beers had retreated. The armored train
returned here safely at o'clock.
Captain Hensley learned from the ma
tive that the Beers were numerous on
the Ladysn1ith side of Colenso
During the afternoon there was a ces-
sation of the bombardment Of Lady
smith. A heliograph was working from
Fort WVlie.

Lenden Nov. IA, 40 a. m.-The paUc-

the chief interest centered in the ar
rival of the achievements. Estccurt
dispatches say that heliograph COM
munication has been established with
Ladysnith, but so far no news has
been received, the latest date being
Nov. 6, which shows that the occu-
pants of Ladysmith had no news of
the outside world since General French
reached Petermaritzburg and that
they were puzzled at the inactivity of
the Beers. Every one was confident
and cheerful. but all were suffering

According to a dispatch from Deaar
the Beers at Kimberley have got the

been blown up and the damage done
to the mines already amounts to many
