ToUBET's TLAN OF CAMPAIGN.
The TrAnsvaaI Commander Has Cut Out
Job that May Pure Him to
Accomplish.

London. june 19.-The St. James
Gazette claims to have received from
an absolutely reliable source at Pre-
torie, capital of the TransvaaI. tho
plan of campaign which will be fol.
lowed by Gen. Joubert, commander-in-
chief of the Beers, in the event of war
between the TransyGal and Great Brit
ain, Gen. JOubert's forces, it appears.
will consist of 10000 men armed with
Mauser rifles, in addition to 46 quick
firing guns and 1000 artiIlerymen,
most of them drawn from the Ger
man and Dutch armies With these
troops and help expected from the
Orange Free State. Joubert expects
to take the offensive Immediately af-
ter the declaration of war, enter the
Orange Free State. and march on Kim
berley, the British mining
center in West Ghiqualand, which
forms four of the 10 divisions of Cape
Colony. Kimberley is about 100 miles
northwest of Bloem fontein. In his
march on Kimberley, JOubert will use
the railroad as far as available. and
expects to capture the town with
slight loss, and blow up the DeBeers
diamond mine. simultaneously, it is
added, the railroad from Cape Town
TO Bulawayo will be destroyed by Boer
sympathizers and agents in Cape Col
ony, who will destroy the Port Eliza
beth-Pretoria line south of Bloemfon
tein, to prevent British troops from
using it.
Finally, Immediately after Kimber-
ley is captured, Gen. ,Joubert will ad-
vance on Cape Town, the capital of
Cape Colony, through the western
provinces, where the Dutch predomi-
nate, and are expected to join the
Beers. Joubert calculates that he
will be master of Cape Town a fort
night after the declaration of war, and
that he will then be able to dictate
terms of peace.

Francisco, June ia story of possi-
BILE cannibalism and death on the Nu-
kOn trail has Just reached here. Three
men who left Dahl river, on December
3, for Jimtown, were not heard of
again, and they were supposed to have
been lost. Nothing was heard of them
here till the steamer Rideout, just ar
rived, brought terrible tale of suf
feev.'Tg lii horror.
The men were Michael DAILY, Victor
Ediar and Nj. Provost. They were from
Providence, II. l.. Woonsocket, r. l.,
and BrocktOn, Mass, respectively.
Their bodies were discovered II miles
from the mouth of Old Mans creek,
they having lost the trail and become
bewildered. Having left Dahl river
with only three weeks food. but which
was amply sufficient for the $50 miles
to JintOwn, the poor fellows were
soon reduced to starvation.
Daly's body was found, partly eaten,
in a tent, on the stove, just as it was
left when death overlook the others.
Some scraps of moose hide and mocca-
sin were found, of which they were
endeavOring to make stew.
Daly's body was identified by the
clothes. The other two men were found
dead five miles away from the tent.
The fact of the tent flaps being shut
down when found would seem to pre-
cludc the possibility of Daly's body
having been eaten by animals. The
other men doubtless were driven by
hunger to the awful extremity of can
nibalism. Four hundred dollars were
found on the bodies.
The seven boats which wintered at
Dahl river are all safe. They are the
