A guinaldo's Envoy Who Is Coming
to the Unitsd States

New York, Oct PA special to the
World from Washington says: Secre-
tary Hay, when asked if Senior Regidor.
the Filipino envoy. would be permitted
to appear before the Philippine COM
mission, said:
Il have heard that he contemplated
visiting the United States and would
present some such plan as that outlined
by the newspapers. He would have no
official or diplomatic status in Wash
ington. either as the agent of the Fill
pino insurgents or as a diplomatic rep
resentative of the so-called Filipino
government. The question of his being
heard by the Philippine peace commits
sion rests entirely with the commission
itself The state department is not
concerned in the matter in any way"
From a confidential source it is
learned that Senior Regidor, who con-
templates visiting the United States
within the next six weeks as the en-
voy of Aguinaldo with plenipotentiary
powers to treat with the United States
government, will employ as his legal
representatives we'll known firm of
Washington lawyers who have had
much experience in International prob-
lens.
The basis of demand of the Fifipinos
for the establishment of an independsnt

mortal to be filed with the commission
as coming from a number of the lead
ing residents of several of the larger
islands in the Philippine archipelago

any means confined to the Filipino
This memorial will recite that the
Filipino government which was estab-

natives, who We're in a majority and
by every right should govern the is
lands found themselves superior in po-
sition as to their control of their
country to that of the Americans when
the American declaration of independ-

plead that this country should not re-

experience in resisting conditions SIM

Enemy and Suffered Heavily.

Cape Town. Oct. &c delayed in trans

reached here. and from the fact that
all Pretoria news is coming via this
point, the authorities are inclined to be-
lieve they are copies of official bulle-
tins from Pretoria. The first evidently
refers to the Glencoe battle. and says:
General Erasmus, as reported. was
compelled to retire. his men and horses
being exhausted. General Erasmus ap-
pears to have been decoyed in the
wrong direction by the enemy. and the
British succeeded in capturing the
Utrecht and Vryheid forces. The num-
her Of killed is unknown, but the
burghers suffered heavily"
The second telegram bears evidence
of being q report of the same engage
ment by Commandant Trichard. It
says:
The Ermao burghers in charge of
the artillery apparently fled from Dun
dee. They were reinforced bv 600 Pre-
toria burghers under General Eras-
mus. The English opened a sharp fire
and De Jaeger, with a Krupp, yielded.
Our wounded were numerous, includ-
ing Commandant Grebeler We also
lost PAS prisoners"

decided to evacuate the second camp

London Oct. 27.-During the momen-

news from the western border which
temporarily shifts the scene of chief
interest to the beleaguered British force

suit of a eortie with the view of break

The British. apparently 500 strong,
met 200 Beers and, according TO the Off

after severe fighting, in which the ar

are fortunate that they came through the

Early last week they left Castle Dale
in a wagon bound for tins city via the
mountain road, which connects the two
places. They found more snow and more
difficult travelling than had been antlci-
pated early in the TIP, but kept on until

Their procedure by wagon became impoS-
sible. They were very DESTROYS of pro-
tceeding, however SO the team was I'M
hitched and the party attempted to pro

cumulating, however, and they were
forced to turn back But they could go
no farther back than the wagon and
here they were compelled to camp. And

and wet their condition grew more crit

for themselves and team. On the third
day the outlook had become truly alarm

their other sufferings. The1r conultlon

But such was not to be the case. An
other outfit from this city, Charles Pen

Lord RoseberTy's Prediction Made at
Dinner In London.

London, Oct. 27.-Lord Roseberry, in
a speech at a private dinner of polite
ians Wednesday, referred to the war
and the heavy loss of life, saying they
had to deDlore the death Of General
Symons and before they sheathed the
sword there would be many more such
losses. Meanwhile. he said, the coun-
try ought to present a united front to
the enemy. In his opinion the Trans
vaal was not a very complicated ques-
ton, but merely the effort of a COM
munity to put back the clock.
Referring to Majuba Hill, Lord Rose
berry said Mr.. Gladstone's action was
determined by the belief that the power
of Great Britain was so great she could
afford to do things other nations could
not afford to do without risk. The
Beers regarded Mr.. Gladstone's mag
nanimity as a proof of the weakness
upon which they could encroach.

succeeded in Smelling the Beers as they
were retreating over the Umpati noun

the artillerymen were forced TO retire
by the rife fire of the enemy.
1t appears that the Beers shelled the
camp all day long Sunday, and the
British We're kept busy skirmishing and
removing their transport wagons out
Of range. Before the retreat there were
many anxious moments Monday night
when the British marched through Van

Biggarsberg. The. troops got through

could easily hold, at 3 o'clock Tuesday

The news from the northern border
indicates that the Beers are actively
trying to prevent Colonel Plumer from
relieving Mafeking, hence the absence
of news since Pretoria announced the
bombardment of the place is creating
considerable alarm.
