SENATORIAL CONTEST
CouaSeI for Scott and McGraw Pre-.
pairing Their Arguments.

MorgantOwn, w. Va, Oct 29.-Sena-
tor-elect N. B. Scott, who came to this
place for the Chadwick day celebra-
tior., is still at the home of DIR. J. P
Fitch. where he was stricken with
erysipelas. He expects to be able to go
home this week.
Senator Scott is busily engaged now
in preparing his defense in the contest
of his seat in the senate by John 7.
McGraw. Senator Scott has retained
as his leading counsel ex-senator
Charles James Faulkner, whom he
was elected to succeed. Senator Faullx
ner ranked as ope of the senate's ablest
lawyers. and that he would take the
case for Scott under the circumstances
conVinces the senator-elect's friends of
the soundness of his defense. Frank
l. Welles, Mr. McGraw's attorney, is
now in West Virginia to conclude the
taking of dispositions in this case.
Mr.. Welles is very confident of the
strength of the case as it now stands,
and regards the attempt which will be
made to oust Scott as by no means a
hopeless one, in spite of the republican
majority in the senate. 1t is expected
that the evidence will be all ready by
the middle of November for submis-
sion to the senate committee.

LONDON IS ANXIOUS.

London, Oct. 29.-The position at
Ladysmith without being alarming, is
sufficiently dangerous to excite anxiety.
Evidently the Beers are trying to re-
peat their Dundee tactics. Roughly
estimated they have 1900 men as
against 1900 British. General Stuart
White has better artillery but his is of
lesser range. Delay in the Boer attack
is reported to be due to the non-arrival
of Commandant General Joubert's col
umn. This has given the British a much
needed respite after their recent exer-
tions. Everything, it is now consid-
cred, hinges on General Whites re-
sources and judgment. Nothing is
known regarding the progress of the
defensive works for the protection of
Ladysmith. The censorship is more ac-
tive than ever. According to the Daily
Chronicles correspondent, the new
regulations limit the number of words
allowed for press messages to one
fourth the number allowable before
Farmers in the neighborhOod of Lady
smith have left their farms and stock
at the mercy OF the Beers and are con-
gregated in town. Two guns that the
Beers have mounted are powerful
weapons. They are the same ones used
in Smelling Dundee and it is a matter OF
considerable surprise how they man
aged to transport such heavy guns
Again it is reported that President
Kruger has accompanied General Jou-
bert to the front in a splendidIy fitted
travelling wagon. The Standards cor
respondent at Ladysmith, telegraphing
Saturday, sends the statement that the
Beers have captured 1900 mules, a loss

to cut the railway at Pieters was frus-
trated by cavalry. All unwounded Boer
prisoners have been sent to Durham to

CHILD ATTEMPTS SUICIDE.
Eight Year-Old Boy Says His Parents
Treated Him Badly.

Winchester, Va, Oct. 29.-An unusual
and very remarkable case illustrating
the sensitiveness of an eight-year-old
child was disclosed today by the con-
fession of Charles Slaughter, who ad-
mits that he deliberately planned sui
eide because he thought his parents
treated him unkindly. The child is very
intelligent.
Friday night he poured a quantity of
kerosene over his clothes, and when
they were thoroughly saturated. he ap-
piled a lighted match. The flames
wrapped about his body, burning the
garments from his limbs, and before
the fire was extinguished the lad had
suffered serious and very painful
wounds.
When taken to the hospital, the boy
endured his sufferings with little muir
muring, and from the circumstances it
was believed that he had soaked his
clothing with the oil and lighted it
purely in childish ignorance and for
the purpose of watching the blaze. Yes
terday, when asked by the attending
physician. DR.. P. w. Boyd, why he had
burned himself, the lad said he had
thought for some time of committing
suicide and had Intentionally set fire
to himself. with the hope of dying. He
said he was tired of living and wanted
to die because he had not been treated
kindly.

Norfolk, Va. Oct. 29.-The oyster
shuckers' strike assumed the proper
tion of a lockout today in all but two
houses. Business was practically sus-
pended.
One thousand union men declined to
accede to the demand that they with
draw from the oyster shuckers' frater-

and no trouble. Many oyster boats
failed to go down the bay today as a re-
suit of the strike. 1t is charged by the

to dictate what sized oysters may be
opened, and also the size OF the meas
uring pot into which they are put. In
reply to that latter allegation, the
shuckers declare that many of these
pots will hold seven quarts.
The shuckers assert that they petit
a more easily understood system, and

usurious interest rates. Relative to the

THE CASE OF JOE THE TURK
If He Was Not Treated HarshIy There
Is No Ground for Complaint

Washington, Oct. 29.-The state de-
partment has taken notice of the COM
plaint of the Salvation Army people
respecting the ejectment from Turkey
of one of the members of that organI-
cation known as Joe the Turk" other
wise Joseph Garabed. There is moth
ing in the statement of the case so far,
however, that warrants the belief that
our consular officers have been at fault
An inquiry has been instituted to as
certain all the facts and to see wheth-
er there is anything exceptional in
Garabed's case; but if the facts are
as stated it is the present opinion that
protest will be unavailing
During the Armenian troubles our
state department was for some time in
volved in negotiations with the Turk
ish government for the purpose of pro-
tecting in their rights Armenians who
had become naturalized citizens of the
United States and returned to Turkey.
The Turkish government is one of sew
eral European governments that alb
solutely refuses to recognize the right
of a Turkish citizen to expatriate him
self, and these returned Armenians
were in many cases subjected to very
harsh treatment, including imprison-
ment and compulsory military service.
The result of our representations was
that, as a mark of amity the Turkish
government agreed to limit it's action
in the case of these returned Arne
mans to expulsion from Turkey. Hav
ing affirmed the principle of the right
of a nation to expel Objectionable per-
sons or classes of persons in our own
Chinese legislation, as well as in the
immigration laws the United States
government was precluded from
denying this right to the Turkish gov
ernment Therefore, if Garabed was
expelled without harsh treatment and
with only such Imprisonment as was
necessary to prevent his escape into
the interior, it will be difficult to estab-
lish a claim on that score against the
Turkish government.

HosTILITIEs AT MAFEKING.

Capetown, Oct. pa dispatch from
Mafekfng dated October 23rd, says:
The bombardment of the city was COM
menced by the Beers at 7:4O a. m. from
a range of two and d half miles, by
battery of three Krupp guns, throwing
7, and II pound explosive shells. At
the beginning the Workmanship was
erratic, but ultimately the gunners got
the range and soon sent a number of
shells into the town. Comparatively
little damage was done. A convent
which had been converted into hospi-
tai was the chief sufferer, three of the
shells striking the building. The am
munition used by the Beers was appar-
emily of an inferior quality. There
were no casualties. The British return
ed only one shot. which, being well
directed, disabled one of the enemy's
guns. After three hours the Beers sent
an envoy to ask if the town was pre-
pared to surrender. Colonel Baden
Powell replied in the negative, but the
Smelling of the town was not renewed.
A dispatch from Mafeking dated Oc-
tober "a, says: The Beers are in pos
session of the water works and have
cut off the supply. This occasions no
anxiety because ample supplies are
available in tanks and wells.

hind during the retreat, but was after
