bored that two years ago this endorse
ment OF the Chicago platform was pur-
posely omitted go that Mr.. Maybury might
draw the votes Of tho Gold Democrats. The
free silver wing insisted this year on the plat
form as finally made and then endeayored to
got the Gold Democrats in line In the interest
OF harmony. The silver men say that the plat
form is ment to stand just as 1t Is written. but
the Mayor and his managers say that II is only
formal and has nothing to do with the cam

Mr. Dickinson gave the free silver wing a slap
In the face late to-day. when he issued letter
dsclaiming any change of heart. and SAYING
that he did not endorse the Chicago here
sizes" It's looked upon as the hrst move Of
the Gold Democrats to affiliate with the silver

five more war vessels to tho South Atlantic

THE BOEny HOSPITAL sERvIcE
Excellent Arrangements Made for tho Care

StrGa! Cable D"paicA to THIsux
LONDON. Oct 28.-To-days mail brought an
interesting despatch from Pretoria respecting
the Boer arrangements for dealing with tho
siok and wounded. kilograms from English
reporters have been published here denounc-
ing the Boer field hospital service, but these
were either invented or based on insufficient
information. Most OF the criticisms OF tho Boer
arrangements at Glencoe apply equally to
those of the British. which were so overtaxed
by the results Of the first fight that many OF
the wounded lay on the battlefield tho entire
night exposed to the rain.
The Transvaal has the orthodox Red Cross
society and an efficient St Johns am bulance
society as auIilaries to the regular military
medical corps The latter is we'll equipped.
but is perhaps numerically too weak. 1t was
modified before the burGhers were called to
arms. When the war commenced sevsral rail
road trains wers made ready fitted with swing
beds and all modern convsniences for allevi-
ating suffering. A field hospital was attached
to every commando and the hospital head
quarters fixed at Pretoria. to which place all
the burRhers wounded within reach Of the
railway are sent with the least possible delay

We're destroyed. OF the animals, goph-
