When the Annual Reunion of the O..

hardships they have gone through and
the listener who knows nothing of war

constant reminder of their war days.

SAMOAN TREATIES ORA WN.
One Already Signed--Mnin Treaty to be
Signed In Washington.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Two treaties
for the final partition of the Samoan
Islands have been drawn, and one Of
them already has been signed The
main treaty is trilateral in character,
between the United States, Great Brit
ain and Germany, by which the terri
torial arrangements Of the islands are
fixed 1t is quite brief, comprising only
four or five articles, the essential feat
ures being that Great Britain and Ger
many renounce all claims and interests
in the Island of Tuituila and the outly-
ing islands, which go to the United
Britain renounce their interests in Upo-
lu and Savaii, which go to Germany.
The present expectation is that this
treaty will be signed in Washington,
in which case Secretary Hay and Ann
bassadors Pauncefote and Won Holle-
ben will be the signatory parties, al
though it Is still possible that the exc
,cution of the document may occur in
London. The second treaty Is between
Great Britain and Germany, and is
longer than the first, covering the
rights and interests in the Tonga and,
Solomon Islands and other settlements
brought about by the Samoan partition.
The United States does not sign this
treaty and is only indirectly concerned.
1t is understood that the collateral trea-
ty has already been executed In Berlin
and that the signing Of the trilateral
treaty will bring to close the negotia-
tions for the division of the islands.

SITUATION IN NATAL.
Obscure Reports of British Victories
SOrtte by Gen. White.

London Nov 23-The situation in
Natal remains obscure. Fighting Is re-
ported al both Estcourt and Ladysmith
1t was at first reported that heavy fir
ing had been heard in the direction of
Willow Grange, leading to belief that
General Hildeyard had made sortie.
Two dispatches announce that General
White sortie from Ladysmth and in
ficted a demoralzing defeat upon the
Beers. 1t would be premature to give
full credence to either report What is
quite certain is that Ladysmith. Est
court and Mooi river stations are all iso-
lated and the Beers seem able, after de-
taching enough troops to hold three
British forces, aggregating 1900 men,
to push on toward Pietermaritzburg
with some 1000 men, A disquieting
feature Of the whole campaign is the
fact that all the advancing British gen.
erals report that the Beers are in force
In view of the brilliant success of Gem
eral Joubert in partially paralyzing the
relieving columns the question Is being
asked what would have happened had
he pushed on to Pietermaritzburg at the
beginning of the war.

THE BoARD OF FINANCE.


The board of finance met last night,
the regular meeting night, and approx
ed the usual batch of bills. The first
of the session was devoted to the
routine business, and then after a
lunch the financiers resumed work on
the pairing down of estimates. After
the routine business was finished, about
10 o'clock, lunch consisting of beer
and sandwiches was ordered, and was
taken to the innermost recesses Of the
council house where the kings Of finance
secrete themselves. A waiter carried
in the hamper of refreshments and he
remained to serve the personages. A
glance into the room a little later dis
closed empty beer bottles and debris Of
the lunch decorating the furniture of
the room, while the city financiers,
leaning back with a satisfied air and
surrounded by clouds OF cigar smoke
presented a picture of enviable ease.
But the labors Of the finance board
are hard, and it will probably take some
time yet to determine how many mil
for next year and how the needed mon
ey will be spent.
During the ante-prandial session last
evening letter from the law firm of
Watrous & Day was read, asking when
payment of the salary of Lamp In
spector Hopkins for the time during
which Frank P. Cafferty held the Of
flee would be made. Consideration of
the matter was postponed until next
Tuesday evening.
Corporation Counsel Robertson was
present and explained two judgments
recently secured against the city and
the Consolidated road Jointly by the
New Haven Steam Saw Mill company
and by the estate Of W. P. Dickerman.
The total amount of the Judgments is
about $35, 1000.
Controller Rowe stated that no trans
fers were made last night.

appearance of great satisfaction in his
manner Il received telegram to-
day from the mayor of Chicago sup
plementing the letter of the Dewey
committee of that city inviting me to
visit there on the first of May. You
may say in your dispatches that all
things being equal and barring any un-
looked for circumstances, l shall accept
the invitation to visit the city on the
first of May I have been thinking of
some place in which to spend that day,
the anniversary of the memorable day
of two years ago, and / don't know Of
any more agreeable city in which to
spend it than Chicago. The people
there have been very kind and pleasant
to me, and ever since the battle OF Ma
Mia l have been receiving evidences of
their good will and affection. My hope,
therefore, is to be able to accept the
invitation which haa been extended to
me-"
The evidence Of good will and kind
ness indicated by the letter from the
committee and the mayor is source Of

this time, and he embraced the oppor-

Manila, Nov. 23--10:50 p. m.-Coonel
CARPENTER on November Is advanced to
Santa Barbara straight north from ia
70, taking trench after trench, the enc
my fighting and retreating. General
Hughes column has steadily been ad-
vancing north to gain a position west
of Santa Barbara. 1t encountered the
enemy in small detachments. Six to
ten Americans were wounded in this
column. Colonel Carpenter started
during the night of November 20 and
opened with Battery G of the Sixth ar
tillery at daybreak November 21 on the
trenches. The enemy volleyed while
the artillery took up a position, wound
ing four. Two companies OF the Twen-
tv-sixth regiment garrisoning Jaro,
moved through Capaz, attacking the
enemy on the right flank, just north of
Jaro, at daybreak November 81, driving
them towards Colonel Carpenter.
The country between Jaro and Santa
Barbara is thickly entrenched, especial
ly near Pavia. The Sixth artillery fired
on the trenches and the Eighteenth reg
iment charged, the enemy retreating to
the next trench. The Eighteenth again
charged, encountering and attacking
force of Bolomen, who were hid in the
long grass and who severely wounded
several Americans. During the after
noon of November q the fighting was
severe Immediately south of Pavia,
three miles north of Jaro. The Twen-
ty-sixths companies returned to Jaro
after the flank movement, having cap
tured three six-pounder smooth bored
cannon and quantity of ammunition.
The enemy's loss was not obtainable,
but seven men were found dead in one
trench. The insurgents are falling back
on Santa Barbara, which, it is thought,
General Hughes has attacked before
this.

ATTITUDE OF THE BASUTOS.
Milner Says BOers' Efforts to Cause Up.
rislnR Have EnlleN.

London, Nov. 28.--An official despatch
from Sir Alfred Miner to Mr.. Cham
berlain reports that thus far the ef-
forts of the Beers to provoke an up
rising among the Basutos or to start a
civil war, have been unsuccessful. The
governor of Cape Colony says: "The
Beers informed Chief Jonathan that if
he would join them he would be de-
Tended. If he remained neutral, they
told him he would not be molested, but
they declared that he must expel the
British magistrate and allow his fell
low tribesmen to pass freely into the
Orange Free State, whose government
in return, would guarantee Basutoland
to the Basutos in perpetuity. The
great concern of the Beers is the crops,
which will rot unless Basuto labor can
be obtained. Evidently the natives
have been affected by the reports of
repeated Boer successes but their gen.
eral attitude is satisfactory"
