SYMPATHY FOR BOERs.
Mr.. Mason Calls Up His Resolution
in the Senate,

WASHINGTON, Dec. I.-An appeal by
Mr Mason for an expression of sympathy
with the South African republic in its
war with Great Britain was the feature
OF the session of the senate today. 1t
was the first formal address made in the
senate this session, and, was the cause of
close attention by the senators and a
large gallery BY motion of Mr. Lodge
the resolution was referred to the COM
mittee on foreign affairs, Mr. Lodge con-
sidering it too delicate a question in
view of the position of this government,
to be passed upon without serious Discus
sion.
MIR. MasonS remarks at times were We
hement, almost passionate. He confined
himself during a greater part of the time
closely to his manuscript, speaking at
all time with force and Vigor. In opening
he said:
The war between monarchy and repub-
licanism began in earnest July T. 1916, and
no treaty Of peace has ever been conclud-
ed, and never will until the question is
settled right. Monarchies, although often
quarreling among themselves, have al
ways agreed upon one thing-that a re-
public is a mistake
After quoting extensively from Daniel
Webster's speeches In support of his con-
tention, Mr. Mason continued:
But We are told that England was our
friend in the war with Spain. How? HeI
| people were our friends, because her peo-
| pie are a Christian people; her govern
! ment has never been our friend except
| for purposes of its own. 1 have no desire
! to twist the Hons tail, but truth com
! pels the statement, so far as our interests
are concerned, for the last half centur!
! the government of England and the peo
pie of England have been divided. Yol
remember 1861? The government did al
it could to dissolve the Union, but the
brave, starving weaVers refused to re
solve against US, saying they would starv,
before they would say a word for slavery
But even suppose she were today our S
! friend, are we to be silent and uphold
wrong in consideration of that friend
ship? We are charged with favoring
secret alliance with Great Bri ain. Th
cannot be true, and the vote with which
this resolution is received will demon
strate the falsity of that charge

der arms sixteen hours, they attacked
the wrong part of the Boer position
where the hill was impregnable, and the
burghers weIe estimated to number 5000
men, instead of $500, as the spies had re-
ported.
There is little in the story to mitigate
the intense humiliation occasioned by the
episode. which was almost an exact coun-
terpart of the battle of Nicholson's Mex.
The war office was besieged with anxious
relatives, and the successive editions of
the newspapers were eagerly scannd. Men
and women We're equally persistent in
pleading for information, but the au-
thorities either de-~not possess any or
else are not prepared to publish it at
present.
The affair has caused the most depress-
ing influence everywhere, not excepting
the stock exchange, where consols were
at the lowest price in many years, and
South African securities slumped, not so
much on account of the military reverse,
which is retrievable, but owing to the
profound apprehension as to its political
effect. No great surprise would now be
felt If Gen. Gatacre's reverse resulted in
Cape Colony becoming aflame from end to
end
The afternoon newspapers, like the
morning papers, withhold the apportion-
ment of blame until they are further ac-
quainted with the causes, and take the
reverse philosophically. The Pail Mall
Gazette remarks:
1.-The country's calm will again surprise
the continent If the blow is more seri-
Gus than it appears, neither the crown
nor the ministry will be in danger of
even a single seditious, viiifying howl in
the street We have confidence in those
who are fighting for US and in their di-
rectors."

opinion, had no future in the intellectual
life of the American people. In 1896 the
cry of Bryan, he said was for more mon
ey. Money was scarce, it was boarded.
The day after the election 1t came out
from its hiding.
Are you willing now" interrupted Mr..
Sims (Tenn), that the mints should be
opened to silver if an international agree
ment could be obtained?'
''No, SIR replied Mr.. Dolliver, 81 have
had my last whirl with silver. I have
been hulnbugged for the last time"
Mr.. Dolliver said that the cry had been
for more money. In three years of Re
publican administration $40O. 900 had
been added to the volume of the cur
rency, more money than could have been
coined by the mints In ten years If the
mtnts had been opened to silver.
I'm other Words said he, 1--WE have
done for you In three years more than
you have done for yourselves. Why
don't you get out of the road and let
the main procession move on?' Qaugh-
ter and applause)
Mr.. Dolliver recalled Mr.. Bryan s
prophecy that the gold standard could
not be enacted without universal fall
of prices. us there a man In this cham
ber," he asked, who will rise in his
place and say that Mr.. Bryan knew what
he was talking about?'
Not a Democrat arose. Mr.. Dolliver
paused, reiterated his question and then
resumed. "It is then confessed that in a
question which goes to the heart of the
controversy Mr.. Bryan lacked wisdom. -
He also called attention to Mr.. Bryan S
prediction that wages would fall and
men would be thrown out of employment.
Yet at the end of three years of Repub-
lican administration under the gold stand
ard there was not an Industrious man In
the country without employment.
VERDICT OF PEOPLE.
Mr.. De Almond (NIo.) followed in oppo-
sition to the bill Replying to Mr.. Dol
liver he said the Democrats had not been
overborne In 1886 in the conflict of rea-
son, but the Republican party had won
by summoning TO their aid the corrupt
and tremendous power of money and
corporations. He charged the Republic
ans with deceiving the people in 1896
They were bimetallists then. If they were
honest then, they must be dishonest now;
If honest now, dishonest then. The
change Of he bonds from coin to gold
bonds, he said would make a free gift
Of $iOOOO0,O00 to bondholders. The bill
would create a bank trust. He predicted
that this measure would Overwhelmingly
defeat the Republican party in 1906
When the peoples victory was Won next

necessary to go the ''vine-clad cottage
| at Canton, o., to offer gratulations

est home in Lincoln, Neb., where resid
| ed that great and stanch friend Of the
| people. Democratic applause)
Mr.. Greene Penn) then announced The
death of his colleague, the late Repre-
sentative Ermentraut, of Pennsylvania
and a 500, as further mark of respect

LONDON, Dec. 12.-No further news
has been received to smooth the mystery
overhanging Gen. Gatacre's retreat from
Stormberg. He has not yet forwarded
the promised additional message, and The
censorship has prevented the correspond
ents from explaining the matter. While
it IS generally admitted that Gen. Cat
acre is inclined to overwork, Gen. Dur
hams remarks are considered as in rath-
er bad taste. Until Gen. Gatacre has
given his explanation, it Is felt that con-
siderable allowance must be made for the
extreme difficulty of getting intelligence
in a country whose inhabitants are in
strong sympathy with the enemy.
Stromberg is described as. a stronger
position than Laing's Mex. The only
road winds through lofty hills. and flank
ing is impossible Colesburg Is also said

TWO BOYS DROWN
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec u-(Special.)-
William and Edward Cunniss, brothers,
aged sixteen and fourteen, are the first
victims of the skating season. Both boys
were drowned Sunday afternoon while
attempting to skate at Lake Genezerath,
mile beyond Golden Valley Sunday the
lake was covered with a thin coating Of
ice, scarcely able to bear a muskrats
weight a few rods from shore. Thinking
the ice strong enough to hold them
though the boys went down TO the shore
and putting on their skates started out
together A few rods from the shore the
ice cracked and gave way and both boys
sank from sight. Their screams for help
We're heard and an attempt was made
to rescue them, but it was too late, and
when the rescuers reached the spot
where the boys had been seen when they
screamed there was no trace to be found
Of the bodies. Luke Cunniss, father Of
the drowned boys, formerly resided in
Minneapolis, where both boys were born.
Some months ago he purchased forty
acre farm at Lake Genezerath and moved
on to the farm with his family. Coroner
Nelson was notified yesterday and viewed
| the bodies, but after learning the cir
| eunstances decided that no further in
| quiry would be necessary. The funeral
! Will probably be held Thursday The IN
terment will be al st. Mary's cemetery,
| in Minneapolis.
ANOTHER AT NORTHFIELD.
| NORTHFIELD, Mimi, Dec. 11-(Spe-
cial)-A sad drowning occurred at this
! place about o'clock today. Mark Cham
berlain and Drew Stevens. both mem
| bers of the high school of Mortified,
were skating on the Cannon river, which
| passes through this place Mark Cham
beIlain skated under the south bridge,
where the ice was thin. He suddenly
| broke through and his friend, Drew
Stevens, seeing his danger. gu 'ckly came
to his assistance. His help was unavail-
ing, however, and they were both soon
drowned, other assistance being too late.
The search for the bodies lasted almost
an hour before they We're recovered.
Resuscitation was unavailing in both
cases. Mark Chamberlain, aged eighteen,
has parents living near the city, while
the parents of Drew Stevens, aged
| fifteen, are residents of Northfeld.
The accident is a great shock to their
parents and the community.
ONE DROWNED. ONE SAVED.
LITTLE FALLS, Mimi, Dec. n.-(Spe-
cial)-Two boys, aged nine years, sons
of E. Como and Levi King, fell
through the ice while skating tonight.
Young King was saved. but Como could
not be reached in time. This makes the
fifth child lost in the Como family in the
last eight months

HIGH RATES FOR MONEY.
Great Demand for Cash at High Fig
ures for Accommodations.

NEW YORK, Dec. u.-There was great
demand for money today, 10 per cent rul-
ing for some early transactions A large
bank which has made many loans marked
up those outstanding to 10 per cent, and
scrutinized closely the collateral offered
for new transactions al higher rates. One
Wall street bank required from Is to %
per cent. Fifteen or 20 per cent of good
industriaIs were accepted on this basis.

was called and paid off, then s., coo 600 or
$3OOO,OO0 loaned at 6Q7 per cent; large
supplies then loaned down to per cent.
Sterling exchange advanced Il per cent
for demand bills.
While bankers were puzzled over the
money situation here and abroad. the pre-
diction was made that demand bills would
rule higher throughout the week, with no
prospect, however, of touching the ex-
porting point. One of the largest foreign
exchange houses reported today's rate as
fully 2 cents below the figure at which
gold under present circumstances could
be proftably sent abroad.

Revenue Ruling as to Beer.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE commits
sioner of internal revenue has rendered
a decision In which he holds that persons
calling themselves agents of brewers in
selling original stamped packages OF
beer. must show that the beer remains
absolutely. the property of the brewers In
their hands until sold by them for and on
account of the brewers. and not on their
own account Otherwise collectors are

to be an almost impregnable position;
and as no troops are available to reinforce
the columns acting in those. directions,
it becomes evident that Gen. Gatacres
misfortune, or error, will delay the in
vasion of the Free State perhaps some
weeks. 1t is exceedingly probable that he
would be compelled to retire on Queens
ton and to wait for reinforcements, which
can hardly reach him until Sir Charles
Warren's division arrives at the Cape
The first detaehments will sail Saturday
next. Even if Gen. French is not COM
PEELED to retreat, he will be obliged to
pause in his advance.
1t now seems certain that the Seventh
division, which is being mobilized at AL
dershot, will also be sent to South Africa.
No news has as yet been received con-
firming the Boer disposal of the fifty
prisoners at Modder river from Lord Me
thuen's column.
HEAVY LOSSES.
It Is just two months since the Trans
vaal proclamation was delivered Nine en-
gagements have been fought. and the
British have lost 566 killed, 2,O27 wounded
and 1877 missing or prisoners.
The war office has issued a note that
after jan l a deduction will be made
from the pay of soldiers serving in South
Africa, in the case of privates, 4 pence
per day for wives and penny for each
child; in the case of sergeants, s pence
for wives and pence for each child.
These sums have been paid thus far by
the government The order indicates a
belief that the campaign will be a long
one.
1t is announced from Cape Town that
the Beers have succeeded In repairing the
Leuwfontein teidge, near StormbeTg and
Burghersdorp which the British des roy
ed on retiring.
Commandant Swanpol, who commanded
the Boer forces at Stormberg. has been
replaced by a Scotchman named Robert
son.
HUMIL1ATING DEFEAT.
Later details regarding the disaster tc
Cen. Gatacre's column show that but fol-
the magnificent work of the British artil-
lery the disaster would have been faI
more extensive as the incessant Boel
shell fire in the midst of the repulsed In
fantry ultimately led to disorder which
only escaped developing into a rou

WASHINGTON, Dec 1.-THE opposi-
ton to Gen. Wheeler's taking his seat
as a member of the house of representa-
tives from Alabama is to be renewed by
Representative Bailey, of Texas, whose
resolutions last year brought out a re-
port from the house judiciary committee
that a military and congressional office
could not be held at the same time. Gen.
Wheeler is now IN the Philippines, but it
has been understood that he will return
to take his seat. The sergeant-at-arms

bama member, covering salary from
March last to date but Gen. Wheeler
has not asked for the money.
