EAGER FOR MORE NEWS.
Reported Smelling of Ladysmith
Causes Anxiety In London.

ONSNSNo -AAA<A-~NJ @1 1O1AoO1k.
London, Nov. 2.-The brevity of the
news from Ladysmith since Tuesday
night has not relieved the anxiety pre-
vailing regarding the position of the
British army at Ladysmith. The war
office ms no information of Major Gen
eral Butler, the British commanders in
chief in South Africa, having left Cape
| Town.
| Colenzo, in the rear of General
| Whites force, is believed to be well de-
Tended by a composite naval and mill
! tary corps, and it is understood the
two naval tWelve-poUnders mounted
near the bridge Bver the Tugela, one
of the most vulnerable points along the
Trailroad from badySmlth TO Pietermar-
itzburg, ought to- be able to defend it
and prevent it's destruction. If the
Beers succeeded in destroying this
bridge it would mean the interruption
of railroad communication with Lady
smith for an indefinite period.
While the Boer attempts in this di
rection are not confirmed, it is claimed
that they may be expected momentar-
lily, and the reported Smelling of Lady
smith, it is added, points to the inten-
ton of the Boer commanders to keep
General White occupied while their
strategy is carried out.
Inc only information received THIS
morning from the seat of war; in addi-
ton to the brief dispatch from General
White, saying he was well and holding
his position, were the lists of casual
ties.
An official telegram reporting the con-
dition of the injured at Kimberley, adds
that Colonel Kekwith, the British COM
mander there, has learned from var
ious sources there that the Boer losses
on the occasion of the late sortie of the
British troops from Kimberley were
very heavy
The newspapers here continue to ex-
press keen pleasure at the sympathy
of the United States. The ST. James
Gazette says:
Few more graceful examples could
be imagined of the courteous spirit of
American sympathy with this country,
which has been so often evident of late,
than the project of the AmeK can ladies'
hospital ship, which will probably be
fitted out with many of those Ameri-
can nurses whose services were so
highly valued during the Cuban war
This is the first example of hospital
ship provided by nation which is at
peace for another during the stress of
war, and the widespread and generous
responses to its appeals from both sides
of the Atlantic show how warmly the
merciful idea is accepted by the citizens
in both countries"

GEN. FUNSTON ON WARPATH
HE WILL SUE ARCHBISHOP IRE
LAND FOR LIBEL.
Indignant at Stories Circulated That
He Desecrated Catholic Churches
In the Philippines.

Kansas City, Nov. IA special to the
Star from Albuquerque, N. NJ, says:
General Frederick Funston, who is en-
route home with the mustered-out
Twentieth Kansas regiment, has wired
his Topeka attorneys, Gleed, Ware &
Gleed, to bring proceedings against
Archbishop Ireland of st. Paul for
criminal libel because of statements at
tributed to the archbishop in recent
interview.
General Funston also instructed his
lawyers to begin criminal and civil
prosecutions against the Monitor,
Catholic paper of San Francisco, which
first printed the story.
In a recent interview in Chicago,
Archbishop ireland was quoted as say
ing that General Funston had been
charged with looting Catholic churches
in the Philippines. The charges all
legged to have been referred to by the
archbishop were made by the editor Of
the Monitor soon after the landing of
the Kansas troops in San Francisco.
The Monitor stated, it is said, that
General Funston had taken two mag
nificent chalices from a certain Catho-
lie church in the Philippines, and had
sent them home to his wife. Arch
bishop Ireland, in his Chicago inter
views. was quoted as calling upon Gen
eral Funston to deny the truth of the
article and sue the editor of the Moni-
tor for libel or the public would be
obliged, against it's WILL to believe him
guilty of the criminal acts of which
he had been accused.
General Funston is highly indignant
at the accusation, and says he will
prosecute the matter vigorously. He
he says, to put a stop forever
to the malicious stories put in circula-
ton regarding him.
General Funston says that he not
only refrained from Decorating houses
of worship in Manila, but that while
colonel of the Kansas regiment issued a
positive order prohibiting the loOting or
mutilation of church buildings. He
supplemented this with verbal fnstruc-
ton to his company commanders to see
that the order was rigidly enforced.
