Attack Upon Butan.

"A battalion of the Twenty-sec

last evening crossed the Rio

been recently established there. 1t car
ried with 1t supplies for campaign of
some days, these being loaded on bull
lock carts. Once across the river the
command marched north for Butuan,
and after proceeding two miles by
moonlight bivouac was formed for the
night. The 200 Macabebe scouts under
the command of Lieut.. NJ. A. Batson,
moved across the river at midnight,
carrying nothing except their guns and
ammunition. By a rapid march around

to cooperate in the effort to capture
the insurgents in Butuan.
Though entirely surrounded the in

We're captured. The troops are now

Merriam ana Alger Cla.h.

Washington. Oct. 19.-Former Secre-
tary Alger and Gen. Corbin come in
for some criticism by Gen. Merriam,
whose report on the Idaho miners riots
was made public yesterday at the war
department. After giving history of
the whole affair and reproducing copies
of all the kilograms exchanged between
the Washington authorities and him
self, Gen. Merriam gives a copy Of a
dispatch of May 81. signed by Secreta-
ry Alger, who reminded Merriam that
in his instruction to an officer he left
in command at Wallace, the scene of
the trouble, he directed the latter "to
use United States troops to aid the
state authorities simply to suppress
rioting and to maintain peace and or
der" and that these were your origi-
nal Instructions
This impels Gen. Merriam to add:
"The telegram of May 81, signed by
Secretary Alger had given me much
concern, for it contained plain inti-
nation that some order Of instruction
intended for my guidance had not been
received. To clear up all doubt on this
point I applied by mail for copy of
the paper referred to in that telegram
as my original Instructions The de-
sired paper was not furnished, but in
the meantime the secretary's telegram
containing the hurtful intimation was
given out at the war department for
publication and was published gener-
ally throughout the country. There
upon / renewed my application for
whatever had been referred to in that
telegram as my original instructions.'
To this request no reply has been re-
ceived. I note this incident here be-
cause OF the hurtful publication"
Gen. Merriam gives copy OF the
only dispatch which conveyed any in
structions to him. Gen. Corbin was
unable to clear up the mystery. and
from other sources It was learned that
search Of the files OF the department
would produce no special instructions
e which Ayers telegram referred.

MAY FIGHT WITH THE BoERs

Astor Battery.
Chicago. Oct. 19-An effort is being
made to reorganize for service in the
Boer army of the Astor battery. which
was rendered to this government by
John Jacob Astor at the breaking out of
the Spanish American war and served
eleven months in the Philippines.
While 1t would be impossible for the
Astor battery to so to South Africa as
a military organization, it is the pur-
pose of those who are pushing the
scheme to evade the neutrality feature
of international law by going as indi-

only whetted their appetites for more.
When the Anglo Boer war broke out
it was considered best to go to Canada
and tender the battery's services to the
British. but this did not suit many of

scene nara 10 ODt0ln.
London. Oct. 19.-Despite multitude
of reports, many of which are contra
dictory and still more unreliable, news
of real Importance is still wanting this
evening. Thus much only is certain:
The Beers are advancing steadily
across the Drakensberg range to Brit
ish positions in Natal and it is quite
possible that already some of their COM
mandos have come into conflict with
the passes of the Drakensberg.
AS for Mafeking, 1t is generally be-
lieved that Col. Baden-Powel has
fought some sort of an engagement
with Gen. Cronje's commando, with a
result unfavorable TO the Beers. The
rumor received tonight from a Boer
source that the Mafeking garrison had
shown a white flag in order to deceive
the Beers into the belief that the Brit
ish had surrendered, so far from being
generally believed, excites widespread
Indignation. People here can receive
news of q British reverse after severe
fighting with comparative equanimity,
but any story rejecting on the honor or
courage of Col. Baden-Powell is in
credible to them.
The statement in the house of COM
mons that the militia reserve is to be
called out was complete surprise even
to the well-informed among the militia
themselves. In most cases they will be
delighted to find their services are re-

of the congregation decided that such
disrespect could no longer be tolerated

party. He was brought before Justice
