MICH AEL DAVIGT
Resigns From PsrIiment as a Protest
Against the War.

against Iue war.
LONDON, October 25.-During the
debate on the second reading of the
appropriation bill in the House of Com
mons to-day. James H. Dalziel, Liberal
member for the Kirkcaldy district, ex-
pressed the opinion that one of the
greatest difficulties in arriving at a
settlement with President Kruger had
been that, rightly or wrongly, the
President had believed Mr.. Chamber
lain, the British secretary OF state for
the colonies, and Cecil sRhodes were
Identical. He added that Mr. Cham
berlain had given grounds for this be-
lief by suppressing kilograms, where
upon the colonial secretary tartly in
tervened, saying: 81 have never sup
pressed kilograms. 1 have not got
them
Mr.. Chamberlain also denied that he
had refused to see DR.. Montagu White
the agent Of the Transvaal, who, the
colonial secretary added, had never ap-
piled for an audience.
The speaker. William Court Gully,
interviewed at this junc;ure and de-
clared that all references to such mat
tiers were out of order.
Michael Davitt, Irish Nationalist,
member for South Mayo. announced in
the House of Commons to-day that he
would resign tomorrow as a protest
against the Boer war
Mr.. Davitt denounced the lingo press
and said that the war for the meanest
and most mercenary aims would be
known as the greatest crime of the
century He declared that if he had
been offered home rule and an Irish
republic he would not have accepted
them if accompanied by the condition
that he vote for the war. AS a pro-
test he would ask to be relieved from
attendance in the House. He had been
in the House for five years trying to
obtain justice for Ireland. and he left
it convinced that mo cause of justice
and right would have the support Of
the House unless backed by force"
The pugnacious spirit animating the
public has reached the legislators.
Apart from the diversion created by
Mr.. Davitt, there was a lively scene
in the House between Gavin Brown
Clark, Radical member for Caithness,
ex-agent of the Transvaal. and Major
Rasch. Conservative member Of The
Southeast division Of Essex.
Mr.. Davitt's resignation was some
thing of a coupe de theatre, as the
Pail Mall Gazette says that some time
ago he told his intimate friends he
would take the first opportunity of re-
firing from parliament. 1t is under

SPELLBINDERS IN MARYLAND.

CUMBERLAND, Md, October 25.--
The Governors of New York and Mary
land and half dozen local spellbind-
ers began this morning at daylight a
4S-hour trip through the western part
of the Oriole State in the interest of its
chief executive, who is a candidate for
reelection. The start was made at Pied
mont, W. Va. just over the state line,
where United States Senator McComas
introduced Governor Roosevelt to two
or three hundred people who gathered
about the rear platform OF the private
car in which the party is travelling.

be judged from the fact that out OF
seventeen or eighteen officers with the
half battalion of Gordon Highlanders,
four were killed and thirteen were
wounded, while the casualties among
the rank and file were 81 per cent dur
ing less than three hours fighting.
Lieut.. Campbell, of the Gordon High
landers, has since died from his
wounds.
A dispatch from Cape Town to-day
says Gen. White has engaged the Or
ange Free State Beers, who were adj
vsncing on Ladysmith, about seven
miles northward, and that it was be-
lieved the advance had been repealed.
This is probably another version CT
yesterdays fighting as already known.
General White this morning officially
notified the war Office that the bullet
had been extracted from General Sy-
mons wound and that he was doing
WELL
Other dispatches from Cape Town
say that the explosion of two trucks of
dynamite was purposely sent out by
Colonel Baden Powell to draw the Boer
fire.
The offer of General Cronie. the
Boer commander in the vicinity of
Mafeking. to Colonel Baden-Powell to
exchange prisoners referred to Captain
Nesbitt and others of the armored
train wrecked at Kraaipan.
The situation in the west is becoming
complicated. The Boer proclamation of
annexation and the claims of a victory
at Glencoe are likely to induce the
Dutch to side with their countrymen al
ready in the field. 1t is said. for IN
stance, that the Boer forces have
evacuated Vryburg. which, it is added,
will be garrisoned by the local Dutch,
among whom are prominent bundles
and government employees.
1t is also believed that the Dutch be-
yond Griquatown are only awaiting en-
couragement to declare for the Trans
vaal.
Advices from Philipstown yesterday
say that the searchlights of the Kim
berley defences were visible the pre-
vious night and that, therefore, Kim
berly is still intact
The latest dispatch from Kimberley
gives details of the arrangements made
by the British commander, Colonel Ke-
kewiche, for the defense of the town.
The meat consumption is limited to a
pound daily. A fire brigade has been
formed, and it's members are prohibit d
from joining in the defense of the place,
as their services are likely to be other
wise required The townsfolk are work
ing ungrudgingly, Notwithstanding
sleepless nights and the absence Of
business. Miles of barbed wire surround
the town. The Beers remain out Of
reach of the guns.
