ONCE LIFTED TN NEW HAVEN.
Mrs. Lagser and Daughter, Two Vic-
 tims of the Nutmeg State.

New York, Oct. 16.-The work of searching the charred hull of the steamer Nutmeg State which was burned on Saturday morning and which was grounded off Sandspoint was begun o-day She lies in the same position as when her captain ran her ashore here. No bodies were found to-day and it is probable that several days Will be consumed in lifting out the heavy parts of the machinery and iron work which fill the upper part of the hull. The Baxter Wrecking company has un- dertaken the job of clearing up the wreck and recovering, fl possible, the bodies of the three persons now gener- ally conceded to have perished in the hold. There are also supposed to be several bodies in the wreck. Various estimates have been made of the num- Der of missing prsons, but as the pas senger list of the Nutmeg State was burned the list of missing persons who actually took passage on the ill-fated boat will be made up slowly, as ln- quiries are made by friends or relatives of the missing ones.
 The bodies of the woman and the child which were washed on the beach a mile from the wreck, were identlhed at Port Washington to-day as those Of Mrs. Mary Lagger, aged thirty-siX, and her daughter, Rose, aged three Mrs. Lagger came to this country from Cosion, Switzerland, where her husband is a watchmaker. The Identification of Ia hV Young of New York city and was posi- tive.
 Three and half years ago Mrs. Lag ger and Mrs. Young came to this cOuIl- try together and lived together until two or three months ago. when they had a disagreement, which resulted in their separation. Mrs. Lager secured a position as a housekeeper, but on ac- count of the child was obliged to give it up. Since that time she had filled similar positions and drifted to New Haven She wrote frequently to Mrs. Young, showing that she wanted to make up their differences. On Friday Mrs. Young received letter from her saying she was coming to New York. Mrs. Young made preparations to re- ceive Mrs Lagger and the child. Mrs. Lagger failed to appear on saturday. When Mrs. Young read of the disaster and that two bodies had been washed ashore and saw the pictures of the Wo- man and child in the newspapers, she was convinced that they were Mrs. Lagger and Rose. When she was led to-day into the room in which the bodies lay she fell fainting to the floor The bodies will be buried in the Reslyn cemetery tomorrow and the steamship it is understood will bear the expense.

She is a woman who has always worked hard to maintain her home, and, with the ex- ception of an occasional indulgence in liquor, bears a good reputation. Sun day nights fire was the third one of undoubted ncendiary origin that has been discovered, and the owners of the block as well as the police officials are convinced that a desperate effort is be- ing made to destroy the block.

"Dinuzulu reports that the natives i'll the Vryheid district of the Transvaal are becoming desperate, and it is fear ed that they will not keep quiet much longer. The Boers are seizing their cattle and the chief implores the British government to intervene. l have re- piled that it is best for the tribe to re- main quiet. My opinion, is, however, that the natives in the Vryheid district will very probably rise against the Boers in case of war They will not submit much longer to the treatment given them at the hands of the Boers."
 On September 29 MT. Chamberlain sent the following to the British com- missioner:
 T think that if the government of South Africa can commence hostilities it would do we'll for you to warn Presi- dent Kruger that in view of the persis- tent rumors that have reached her majesty's government as to threats of murder of British subject, he and his government are expected to protect the lives and property of all peaceable per sons, subjects and others, and will be held responsible by her majesty's gov ernment for any acts committed con- trary to the usagts of civilized people," Another cablegram dated October Il, instructed Sir Alfred Miner to "con- vey immediately to President Kruger, the foregoing warning, in regard to the alleged outrages reported by the refu- gees.''
 A despatch showing the feeling of the Cape government was received from President Alfred Milner on September 21 enclosing a minute sent by the Cape ministers, urging her majestys gov ernment to exercise spirit of com promise in order to avert a calamity which seriously threatens the British provinces in South Africa, and not merely the republics" This minute goes on to say: Tt is not open to doubt that the issue of war will be victory for the imperial arms, but the evil consequences of a possibly prolong- ed struggle would be far reaching and abiding for generations in it's effects on Europeans and natives"
 At the end of the Blue book is the fol- lowing cablegram, which is of peculiar interest to Americans, from MT. Cham berlain to Sir Alfred Miner: October Il, 1:05 D. m.-Most urgently inform the British agent in the South African republic that the government of the United States have asked to allow their consul to take charge of the agency, Let the British agent try to arrange accordingly" The conclusion of this despatch indicates that MT. Chamber laln did not have a shadow of doubt | regarding the willingness of the United States government to tend the good nf fees desired.

 Defeat PhilosOphicnlly.

| New York, Oct. 16.-There were no
 particular signs of exultation on MT. | Iselin's face after the race, though he did look extremely we'll satisfied. T do lnot know" he said, that I have any particular comment to make. We won to-day because we had the better boat. I have felt that all along; now others, I think, will admit it. We are ready to race tomorrow, and as for wind and sea, we are prepared to take our chances with both. Te boat sailed well to-day. During the race we did not have hitch or accident of any sort. Everything stood the strain in perfect manner. The crew of the Columbia were board ing the tender for supper as the reporter drew away. Their enthusiasm was a little more apparent than that of the Iseln group, and Captain Barr, who sailed in the stern of his boat, smiled in his own quiet way.
 Sir Thomas Lipton took his defeat with the spirit of a true sportsman. Tt was a fair and square race" said he to an Associated Press representative who saw him on board the Erin. "We were beaten fairly. No two boats ever sailed a better race, and they were equally well handled as far as I could see" Speaking of the Columbia, Sir Thomas said: "She is fine, fast boat, and she was splendidly handled MT. Iselin and those associated with him on board are honorable gentlemen, and I wish to say that it is pleasure to sail against such competitors. Asked if he wished to say something about the Shamrock Sir Thomas said: My boat was well sail ed and the sails were well handled. I have no complaints to make at all. We shall have another race tomorrow, I hope, and I think there will be plenty of wind for both yachts"
 New York, Oct 16.-The betting to- night is about 10 to 6 on the Columbia for the series and some money is being offered at to 1.
