Questioned regarding the rumors that
a nodus vlvendi had been arrived at in
the Alaskan dispute. Mr.. Lewis said:
Il am certain that the United States
has concluded no definite arrangement.
such as conceding free portsoon the Lynn
canal or Pyramid harbord Anything

Referring to the Philippine islands, Mr..

To SOUTH AFRICA
Large Number of Troops
Been Ordered Sent.
VERY STRONG DISPATCH
Will Be Sent to the T%ransvaal by the
British Cabinet Council--Vessels
Offered the Government For Trans
ports by Many Ship Owners.

London, Sept. S.-The Argio-Trausyaa
situation today wears IA more peaceful
aspect. The Associated Press account Of
the decisions taken at the abine coun-
Gil Friday are confirmed from the best
sources of information. In addition tc
the troops from India a brigade of -four
battalions of infantry is under orders to
start for South Africa Immediately. one
from home and three from Mediterranean
stations. The sailing of the Castle liner
Harlech Castle has been cancelled and
the steamer will probably be employed
to transport British troops.
A seml-oilcial statement comes from
Pretoria through C%apetown TO the effect
that the Tiansvaal government has ex-
planned to the British diplomatic agent,
MI. ~Conynglam Greene. that the dispatch
Of British troops was regarded as an UNI
friendly act.
The T~ransvaal has now resumed a
practical tone and the Afrikanders are
exerting a supreme effort to expedite a
settlement.
The Daily Chronicle AYERS that Lord
S~allsburys moderating influence was felt
throughout the council. This is exceed
ingly probable. but in any case the cab
met was unanimous in favor of Mr..
Chamberlain sending a strong dispatch
demanding a categorical answer to the
proposals Sir Alfred Miner submitted to
the BloemfOnteln conference.
The Times thinks something more
than this might have been d~emanded,'
but the cabinets decision meets with uni
Versal approval, and, pending develop
ments, nothing further will be done.
The council vas marked by absolute
unanimity, and in spite of a lack of Off
cial information and the presence of
much corroborative evidence that the sit
uatlon is scarcely less strained, there is
no signs CT any intention to convene par
lament and no immediate necessity
exists to call out the reserves. 1t is
probable, however. that the appeals from
the government Of Natal will result in
the dispatch of a large body of troops
from England and India to Natal and
Cape Colony.
Many snip owners have called on the
officials of the admiralty and offered their
vessels as Transports. They were told,
however. that nothing would be done in
this direction until the cabinet council
had decided on what action would be
AIKEN.
The Evening Standard today says:
The general feeling p~ervadlng the public
departments and clubs is that hostilities
are in~eyitable.'

Boarded By Indians.

San Francisco, Sept. 9.-The two mast
ed schooner Kate and Anna, Captain An
derson, which returned from Kodiak to-
day, was boarded by Indians on August
IL off the Malashina glacier and her cap
tain was warned not to hunt sea otter.
Though the captain told the red men
that he was not hunting, but was on the
way to San Francisco, they attempted to
stop the boat, intending to make a search
for otter skins and he escaped from them
only by putting on full sail. Many shots
We're fired by the Indians at the men on
the schooner, but no one vas hit. The
captain says the hostile natives filled
nine canoes.

New York, Sept. g.-A dispatch to the

the coming verdict of the Dreyfus case.

Contest Over a Will.

Kansas City, Sept. 9.-The foundation
has been laid for a long contest over the
s4,evo.eov estate left by the late Wilson
Waddingham, who died in New, York
about three months ago. Mr.. Wadding-
ham formerly lived in Kansas City and
his property included vast tracts of land
in the west and southwest. His will. filed
mere a few weeks ago, named David T.
Beals and c.. II. T. Lewis, Kansas CITY
as executors. This will was ex-
eeuted in 1892 and provided for the pay
ment of 10000 annually to his WIDOW
and literally remembered many relatives.
Ihese executors We're greatly surprised
yesterday when local attorneys filed a ra-
vocation of the will and asked the an
pointment of G. NJ. Gilbert as executor.
The revocation was dated in 1898, and had
been entrusted to a Philadelphia attor-
ney. The revocation makes no proyis-
ion for the distribution of the vast estate.
1T simply reEokes it. Mr.. Waddingham
had been married twice and there are
many claimants.

St. Paul'S Welcome.

Chicago, Sept. "a special IN the
ilnes-Herald from st. Paul, Mimi, says:
Elaborate preparations are being made
by citizens of st. PAUL to welcome the
Thirteenth regiment. The soldiers will
not be in st. Paul over three hours, but
these three hours will be filled with en-
thuslasm n patriotism. They will be
served a splendid breakfast by a large
number of we'll known women. The vol
unteers will return to the train and be
taken into Minneapolis. where the prin-
cipal doings will take place. Then the
regiment will break up.

DELICATE AUTUMN GLOVES.

The Marie Antoinette blue glove is a
novelty. 1t is a of fine suede, and in
that peculiar shade of blue which COM
bines the tints of turquoise and electric
blue. A bright terra-cotta glove is an
other fancy shown for early autaumn
wear. All the shades of tan from a pale
fawn to a delicate brown are the vogue
for this season, and the same is true of
the blues, puppies and grays. 1t is MOTTO
ed that ACKNOWLEDGMENT are wearing
both glace kid and suede gloves. One is
quite as popular as the other.

there is great alarm for the fate of

reprisal and retaliation from the enemy.
