OBJECT LESSONS DRAWN.

London, Oct. 9.-The latest dispatch
from Lourenzo Marques, relating to dhe
chartering of the steamer Guelph,
caused some stir and especially as it
was announced that the Guelph had
landed at Durham Ala cases of ammuni-
ton for the Beers. There is a pretty
general feeling that ammunition ought
not to be allowed to go forward.
The Pail Mall Gazette, referring to
the matter, says: There is some hope
that the ammunition will be seized at
Durham, as Natal possesses a ministry
whose loyalty is unquestioned. Had
not the Filipinos been given arms by
Americans with which to fight Spain,
Gen. Otis would long ago have been
enjoying his ease at home. Similarly
with the Beers. We may have to

Some indication of the war office es-
innate for the campaign is given by the
fact that the authorities have contracts

COAL HOLDS FIRM.

New York, Oct. s.-The October letter
of the anthracite coal operators, issued
today, says that the volume of coal now
in process of shipment, has materially
increased in the last two weeks, and
that prices are firmer. The only limit
to the output this year, the letter adds,
will be set by the ability of the coll
lieries to prepare coal and transporta-
ton companies to ship it.
Western market receipts from Jan. /
to Sept 10 are slightly in excess of
those for the same period In 1898, re-
ceipts by lake show a decrease of per

Sept 10 were 41S.935 tons against COS, 1872
tons at that time last year.
