ARE PROVEN FALSE.
Stories of Disaster Mt Lndysmith De.
nicd-Fnll of Colenso
Confirmed.

London, Nov. An immense weight
was lifted from the public mind by
brief official dispatch, published Mon
day morning, by which the continental
stories of disaster at Ladysmith were
proved to be false, although the dis
patch itself revived the anxiety of the
more timid in another direction. as It
indicated that Gen. White, instead of
sitting tight and acting wholly on the
defensive, as it is held in many quar-
tiers he ought to do, persists in making
sorties and risking another Nicholson's
Mex disaster. Generally, however, the
CHEEKY tone of the dispatch, showing
that there is no anxiety at Ladysmith
as regards the ability of The be-
leaguered garrison to hold its own,
has had an excellent effect on the coun-
try.
London, Nov. 1.-THE officials of the
British war Office when shown the dis
patch from Durham of November said
they had no further news regarding the
military situation in Natal, but thought
no undue significance should he at
tached TO the concluding phrase. They
could not say whether the railroad to
Ladysmith was intact, but they admit
ted that Ladysmith is now completely
surrounded.
1t is believed that the Orange Free
State commanders now have II 900 men
concentrated against Kimberley and on
the Free State southern frontier. Or
posed to them are only 1000 British
troops. The towns which lie open to
their attack are Aliwal North, Eurnh-
ersdorph, Steynbcrg, Barkly and Moi
teno.
Estcourt, Natal, Friday, Nov. Go
lenso is now in the hands of the I;oers.
Before the evacuation was decided upon
the enemy tried to cut Off our outposts.
The Durham light infantry under Lieut..
MolyncauX and 4 force of Dublin fus'-
leers were sent to the relief Of the QUE
posts and brisk fight ensucd. The
Beers were repulsed, leaving L. dead.
Twenty Hoer horses were killed and tie
others stampedcd. The chief motive for
the Withdrawal, however, was that tile
long-range guns of the Beers had made
the position untcnahlc. No orders were
received for retirement.
Durham, Natal, Nov. a.-(Dclaycd in
n.)-Thc official roll call
shows that Sl3 members of the Glou-
ccstershirc regiment and OF tho
Royal Irish fusilecrs are missing us
the result Of the engagement on IHarqu-
hairs farm. Thrtv-two members
OF the GlouccstcrShirc regiment. ten
members of the Royal Irish fusileers
and two members of the Tenth noun
tain battery were found killed. Be-
tween 10 and 100 escaped and returned
to Ladysmith, whittier $50 wounded
have been brought.

Several States.
Ohio Elects Nash (Rcp.) for Governor
-Itcpublican Victory in kentucky

Maryland Is Democratic.

Chicago, Nov. S. -IncompIcte returns
from Ohio indicate the election of George
X. Nash, the republican nominee for gov
ernor, by comfortable lead, all things con-
sdered His plurality is put all the way
from 20O0O to $4,000. The most interesting
ahosa county, the home of Senator Mark
Hanna, by the republicans. Jones carried
this county, fulfilling the predictions made
two weeks ago. 1t wou!d seem that Jones
cut more deeply into the democratic than
the republican vote.
The fusion plurality in Nebra ska is placed
at 10000 votes-a decided Increase over the
vote of two years ago. THIS large gain will
be accepted that Col. Bryan is stronger
than ever in Nebraska. for he led the fight

trary to expectation, the election in Ken
lucky passed off with little trouble al
though the state militia was under arms
ready for instant service. If TAYLOR has
carried Kentucky 1t is probable the state
legislature will be republican on joint bal
lot, insuring the return Of 4 republican sem
ator to Washington. TIE Brown vote, as
was expected, is light, Ion the ant-G oebel

mated, will pass 10000, lut the republican

600 plurality. Gov. Shaw apparently ran
behind his ticket. The returns indicate re-
publican gains in the legislature. 1t is cs-
timated that the republicans will have 100
on joint ballot in the next general assem-
bly,. The friends of Senator Gear claim the
returns from the senatorial districts show
conclusively that he will be returned to
Washington.
Maryland goes back to the democratic
column again, the democrats carrying the
state by n plurality estimated at 10000 to
10000. The election in Maryland places ex-
Senator German back in Tie saddle.
The surprise of the day came from South
Dakota. where apparently tho fusionists
were buried under republican landslide
Reports from South Dakota indicate that
the republicans have carried the state by
plurality variously e.; mated at from
5000 to 10000 The state had been carried
by the fusionists by small pluralitics since
1886.

licans retain control of the LEGISLATURES In

Killed by Powder Explosion.

Chicago, Nov. A terrific explosion
occurred Friday afternoon at Aetna,
Ind, in the Aetna powder mills, in which
two men were killed and one man in
jurcd. The dead arc Rudolph Christian
sen and August Lung. The explosion
was in the dynamite mix house, the
cause not being exactly known, but
supposed TO have been from piece of
iron getting under the mixing wheels
or drop of water falling from the roof
into the car used to haul nitroglyccrin.
The house, which contained 900 pounds
of dynamite and perhaps 500 pounds
more in process Of making, was de-
stroycd, pieces being found half mile

AUGUSTUS FIRST CARRIAGE.
Introduced in 1793-Oniy Four chsise il
Augusta Before 1900.

Who would ever think of making a
note of the appearance Of a new car
riage in the city. today. to go down as
matter of history? Even last year
when the first bicycle-tired carriage
appeared upon the streets. no one re-
marked at it greatly, but merely looked
on interestedly and accepted it as the
usual course of events. and that it was
merely one of the looked for improve
ments. Even a horseless carriage
would not be such a great show in Au-
gusta, even though there is none owned
here, and it is doubtful if any historian
who writes of the city in later days.
ever mentions the arrival of the first
horseless carriage.
Yet it was but LOG years ago that the
first carriage appeared in Augusta.
They were spoken of then as the pleas
ure carriages, as it was but the time
when the condition of the roads were
such that a carriage could be used
here. Judge North and William Brooks
had each a chaise in 1898, while others
appeared several years later. Then
