CAPE TOWN QUIET.
CAPE TOWN, Oct 1.-There is less eX-
element here than nearer the frontier,
and despite the alarming reports many
well informed persons in Cape Town di=-
credit the idea that the Beers will take
the initiative President Kruger. it is
said, does not despair of the sympathy
of at least portion of the British l. Der
ais, and he knows that If tie Beers fire
the first shot their sympathy will be abb
solutely forfeited.
The Cape Argus publishes the fol owing
dispatch from Chariestown Command
ant Gen. Joubert will command the Boer
forces at Laing's Mex. This is regarded
as the Transvaars reply to the move
ments of the British troops. There is
considerable uneasiness here"

proximity to the frontier and it is ru-

ASK PROTECTION.
MAFEKING, Oct. 1.-Great uneasiness
exists here over the masSing of the Beers
near the frontier AT a largely attended
meeting today Mr.. Kiesle, former may
or, and other speakers complain d that
the imperial authorities were neglecting
to provide proper protection to the in
habtants, as this border is much more
exposed than the Natal border. The
Beers, backed up with artillery, could In
wade the town in a few hours Many
women and children, the speakers p ,inted
out, were placed in a position of great
danger. The meeting unan;mou ly
adopted an address to the British figh
commissioner, Sir Alfred Miner, praying
further protection.
KIMBERLEY IN DANGER
CAPE TOWN, Oct. 1.-The Beers are
said to be threatening Kimberley, which,
however, owing to the presence of the
imperial volunteers and the usual guards
for the mines, is considered quite safe.

trains. One, coming from Portland over
the Northern Pacific, reached Dickinson,
the home Of Company K, about 8 o'clock
this morning. From there to Fargo every
town along the line yelled itself hoarse
in honor of the troops. The men left the
train at Dickinson and marched to the
opera house, where hot lunch was served.
The next stop was at Mandan, where
the two trains consolidated. Great crowds
welcomed the Bismarck, Jamestown and
Valley City companies. All the COM
panies stopped and dined at Jamestown
at 3 o'clock.
Fargo was reached at 8 o'clock and
ten thousand people, dozens of steam
whistles and bells and salvos of artillery
by the Lisbon battery made the occasion
unparalleled in North Dakota.
Companies c and I were held here until
II o'clock and were fed at the armory
in company with the local organization.
They will reach their respective homes at
Grafton and Wheaton early in the morn
ing. The Devils Lake company was cut
out at Jamestown and sent north 10

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1-(Special) y
Col Ames today received notification
from Gen. Shafter that, owing to the
large amount of accumulated work and
the demand upon the paymasters, it will
be impossible to pay the men of the Thir-
teenth regiment until the morning of
Oct 4, following the muster out.
A few of the men are angry over the
delay, but, as the special trains that will
take the regiment home will not leave
until noon of Oct. 5, most of the men con-
slider that the delay in paying off will
make no difference to them.
1t was decided today that the First and
Third battalions, which include most of
the st. P.trl and Minneapolis companies,
will travel home over the Northern Pacific
and the Second battalion will travel on
the Great Northern.
Corporal Larabee, of the South Dakota
regiment, who is in the quarantine hos

The remaining companies of the Thirty
second regiment sailed today for Manila
on the transports Glenogle and Charles
Nelson. Companies A, e, F, G, K, [. and
NJ and the regimental band, under com
mand of Col. Louis A Craig, went on
the Glenogle, and companies c and D,
under command OF Maj. Charles E. Cabell,
went on the Nelson. The Glenogle and the
Nelson are of about the same speed,
fourteen knots an hour. They will touch
at Honolulu and are expected to reach
Manila together.

months at the ratio of the past eight
months, the export trade of Havana for
the first year of American occupation will
exceed $4,000. Total exports for The
eight months were 1855, $40, the United
