The Movement in Whites Renr


late despatch this morning states that,
on Tuesday, the Beers were marching south
and southeast in the direction of Colenso.
obviously with the design of cutting the
railway. The message from Ladysmith
states that preparations had been made to
Illustrate the movement. This news may
contain the kernel of that which may be
expected TO follow. The decisive fight of
the siege may be between Ladysmith and
Colenso. AS the latter is twenty miles dis
tant. it is not probable that the British
would go far in that direction unless bent
upon retreat.
The southeastern movement reported
must be that of the Free State forces from
Dewdrop, southwest of Whites position.
This perhaps might be intercepted at On
derbroek: possibly, nearer by. at Flagstone
Spring. The advarce south doubtless indi-
Gates separate movement by a detachment
Of General Meyers command from Isim-
bulwaIa Mountain, west of Ladysmith.
The information is not ample enough for
the formation of opinions; but if the maps
at our disposal are even approximately ac-
curate. it is not easy TO understand how
Sir George White could hope 10 meet and
defeat the two forces. whose objective and
junction point is doubtless Colenso. with
out Withdrawing his whole force from the
defence of Ladysmith.
1t is impossible not to suspect that a
new and painful illustration CT the shrewd
tactics of General Joubert is about to be
given On the other hand. the message
may convey a veiled hint to the war Office
that the British general was preparing to
make break for Colenso. intending to
attempt the defeat in detail of the Free
staters. and, later. the column from the
north. Sensational news is almost certain
TO develop within the next day or two.

Good for the Accountants.

Among my valued acquaintances here in the

Run to death by trusts; can't begin to keep

its own representation Of its condition, and am

the best part Of it, either, for the capitalization
Of these trusts represents fully so per cent of

reports Is usually covered by the preferred guar.

public to get its eye teeth cut and to wake up

cover some new buildings. But even with
the most strict and honest supervision Of
new buildings. there would still remain .
vast number Of unsafe and unssnitary
structures. built before the days Of regula-
tions. What is to be done with these? Obvi-
ously, to remodel all OF them would be difh-
cult and expensive. In case Of a corrupt city
government, the building inspector would
have q chance for blackmail. Even
with an honest government the
strict enforcement of laws proper
for the preservation of the public health
and safety might entail great expense on
people who could i'll afford it. But in the
most important cases where reform Is
needed, the expense would fall on purses
long enough to stand the drain. There
have been horrible hotel and tenement
fires in New York, fires in factories and
theatres there and elsewhere due plainly
to the greed of those who owned the build
ings and were determined to risk the lives
Of their fellow beings rather than miss
the chance OF making a few extra dollars.
Cases like these call for the close atten-
tion of the public When an elevator falls
through somebody's indifference and neg
ligence, or people are killed because OF
the greed Of a street car company which
refuses to take proper measures for the
protection Of the public, or lives are lost

College Frnternitfes.

There has been rather a general DISPOSE
tion to discuss the case of young Berke-
ley, the Cornell College student who was
drowned in the attempt to carry out an
order connected with his initiation into a
college society. 1t must be said that those
who condemn all fraternities, and this one
in particular, or attach blame to the mem-
Der who gave Berkeley his instructions, are
ill l-advised in their remarks. In view of all
the facts, the students death appears not to
have been due to the fraternity or any
member of it except himself, and nobody
can be said to be in fault. It was the kind
of thing which might have happened in a
hundred different ways, without blame to
anyone.
The facts, as careful readers know, are
that the young man was taken out for
walk by members of the fraternity, prepar-
atory to his initiation. The idea was to
test his endurance, though not to the in
jury of his health. He was told to pin
note on bridge which was in plain sight
across plowed field. He went toward the
bridge with a determination to fulfill all
requirements. and finding a canal in the
way. attempted to wade 1t under. the ap-
parent impression that nothing worse than
a wetting would ensue. There was mud in
the bottom Of the canal, the water was
deep. and he was drowned. 1t was of
course inconceiveable that the man who
sent him to his death had any idea that
the thing was dangerous: and IL appeared
that neither man knew that the canal was

IN THE SUPREME COURT.
An Appeal From n Conviction for
Obstructing Navigation.


In the United States Supreme Court yes
terday argument was heard on the appeal
brought by Frank VI. Rider. John F. Bur
CESS, and Samuel NJ. Rutledge. from con-
viction in the United States Circuit Court
for the Southern District of Ohio. These
three men were county commissioners Of
Muskingum county Ohio, on December 49,
1890. and as such were responsible for the
condition of all bridges in that county.
On the date mentioned the Secretary OF
War. under authority given him by sections
and of the River and Harbor act. noti-
fed these commissioners that the bridge
across the Muskingum River. at Taylors-
vile. was an obstruction to navigation, in
asmuch as it did not have a draw. He di-
rected the commissioners to remedy the
evil.
The commissioners failed to do as in
structed. and on February 25 Lieut.. Col.
w. E. Merrill, Corps Engineers, at the
United States office at GAINESVILLE, gave
them a hearing. the result Of which was an
order from the Secretary of War to make
the required Improvements before Septem-
ber 80, 1891, or subject themselves to prose-
cution and a fine of 5000 for each month
thereafter that the bridge remained an
obstruction to navigation.
The order was ignored. the commission
ers were prosecuted and convicted in the
United States Circuit Court, and the ap-
peal argued yesterday was from that con-
viction.

BIG AWARDS TO AMERICANS.
Heavy Contracts Signed for Tram
ways In Glasgow.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-The Tramway
Company OF the corporation OF the city OF
Glasgow has, it is announced, forwarded to
a number Of firms in this country the con-
tracts for practically the entire work Of
building the proposed tramways in the
Scottish city. The contract for supplying
and laying the cable conduits is awarded
to the National Conduit and Cable Com
pany Of this city, which will also supply
the cable.
The contract for engines has been Sc
cured by the Edward P. Allis Company, of
Milwaukee. and that for electric fittings by
the General Electric Company. The order
for The first thousand cars has been placed
with an American firm. The work is ex-
pected to cost some SIS. 900, 900. all the
awards having been made after general
competition of American with British man
ufacturers. Awards OF contracts by private
corporations to foreign firms are not unfa-
miliar in Great Britain, but the citizens OF
Glasgow are said to be somewhat exercised
over the fact that the Yankees won out in
securing work of the public corporation.
The Nation Conduit Company has under
taken to deliver 100, 900 feet of conduit ma
terial a week for six months. A considera-
BILE shipment has been made already. and
the work Of laying the conduit under Amer
lean supervision has begun.

PACIFIC RAILWAY INTERESTS.
Leading Stockholders Propose to Ad-

NEW YORK. Nov. "A meeting was
held yesterday afternoon in the office Of
c. P. Huntington, Is Broad Street, at
which time were present, tesides Mr. Hunt
ington, Gen. Thomas H. Hubbard, repre-
senting the Hopkins -Searles interests in
Soutern Pacific company company; George
Crocker. and Mrs. Leland Stanford. It
is understood that matters relating to the
Southern Pacifs Railroad and the Pacific
Improvement Company were considered.
Mr.. Huntington denies a report that the
sale Of Mrs. Stanfords stock to the Hunt
ington- -Speyer interests was discussed.
''The meeting" he said, related to an
adjustment of ,the accounts between the
different interestA"

provement Company. the assets Of which
consist of railroad stocks and various i'm
provements along the line Of the Southern
Pacific The interests named have also
been each heavy owners of Southern Pa
cific stock, but it is understood that the
Huntington interests, with which Speyer
G. Co. are identified. acquired the Crocker
holdings some time ago, and, it has also
been reported, would acquire Mrs. STAN
ford's holdings. Mrs. Stanford, who has
been In Europe, came to this country by
the steamship Campania on Saturday last,
and is at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. On
board the same vessel was Edgar Speyer,
brother Of James Speyer, of Speyer G Co.,
who represents Southern Pacific bondhold-
ers in Europe. Mrs. Stanford is expected
to remain in this city for the next week,
at the expiration Of which she will leave
for California.
