WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-(Special Tele-

Hayward and in some quarters, especially
among the leaders of currency reform. con-
sternation Is shown over the possibilities
that may arise should an ad interim senator
be appointed from Nebraska Chairman II.
H. Hanna of the Sound Money league Is
especially soicitous, as he had hoped that
currency measure would pass congress
during the coming session, but with the
small majority the republicans have in both
branches he has almost given UP hope that
anything but a makeshft in the way OF cur
rency legislation will be attempted.

CHURCHILL CAUGHT BY BOERS

Fof Her Son.

Copyright, 1899, by Press Publishing Coz
LONDON, Nov. 16.-(New York World Ca
blegram-special Telegram.)-I conveyed to
Lady Randolph Churchill tonight the in
formation contained in the dispatch from
Estcourt that her son, Lieutenant winston
Churchill, a newspaper correspondent, had
been captured by the Beers in an engage
ment of an armored train at Cheveley. She
said:
1T Is not certain he has been captured.
His valet has cabled me that it is believed
he has been, as he had not returned. The
cable was dated yesterday and received by
me tonight. l am terribly anxious about
him. He Is 90 reckless and seeks danger
so eagerly. l am momentarily expecting fur
ther news, but nothing has been received,
even at the war Office
The Worlds dispatch makes 1t clear Lieu
tenant Churchill had rushed into the fray, as
In the famous charge of the Twentieth Hus-
sars at Omdurman, though in this instance
he is supposed to be merely war corre-
spondent and -combatant. If captured
fighting, he will be treated as prisoner
of war and held for exchange, but other
wise he probably will be released in a couple
of days. His mother evidently fears he
may have been wounded or worse, though
she shrank from saying so. Such a ter
mination to career so exceptionally full
of promise would be universally deplored
here, as Lieutenant Churchill is regarded
as one of England's men of the future

BIG DEAL FOR BROOM CORN

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-The Chronicle to-
morrow will say Negotiations are nearly
completed for the transfer of the broom corn
of five big local concerns to the Union
Broom Supply company, the so-called trust,
that was organized two months ago under
the laws of Indiana. By the acquisition
of this stock, it is claimed, the corpora
tion will own % per cent of the market sup
ply. The price to be paid for the 1000
tons of broom corn which the Chicago con-
Germs possess will reach $5OO,OOO or $3.50
a ton.
1t was the story of the deal that caused
the delegates to the convention of the
Broom Makers of the United States and
Canada to empower their executive commit
tee to call a meeting at any time soon to
meet any rise in price that is expected to
follow the latest move of the trust.
Coupled with the announcement that the
trust was arranging for the purchase of the
stock owned by the local concerns, it was
the intimation that the Union Broom Sup
ply company soon will enter the field Of
making brooms itself.
