London. Nov. 2--The breakdown of
the Delagoa cable route, combined with
the monopolization Of the available tel
egraph lines by the government and
British staff officers, is responsible for
the fact that nothing further has arriv-
ed from South Africa. The government
has received dispatches rectifying the
casualty lists. These will be published
to-day. Up to midnight nothing had
been received concerning Mondays cas-
ualties. The war office officials are
working under great strain.
Captain Perriott, staff captain to the
military secretary, has just died, his
end being hastened by anxiety and over
work. An unconfirmed statement is
published that General Sir Redvers Bull
Ter has left Cape Town for Ladysmith.
A belated despatch from Ladysmith,
describing Mondays fight, says: "A
couple of squadrons of Hussars had a
narrow escape from disaster early in
the day They found themselves sud
denly confronted, within easy range, by
an overwhelming force of Beers, who
seemed to spring from the bowels of
the earth. The Hussars were splendidly
handled and were extricated with only
one man wounded"
The queen is credited with expressing
sincere pity for Sir George Stewart
White and the officials are in no wise
inclined to judge him harshly. So far
as the public is concerned, however,
while qualification Is felt at the manner
in which the isolated battalion sur
rendered there is still severe criticism
for General White and Lieutenant Col
onel Carleton for allowing the column
to get out of touch, for the absence of
proper scouting and for not retiring
when the ammunition was lost. In
favor Of Lieutenant Colonel Carleton
the explanation is hazarded that he be-
1ieved 1t was imperative to the success
of General Whites operation that he
should hold the position at Nfcholson's
Mex.

ter from President d. C. Willett, of

to Secretary G. A, Hays, of the
board of trade, of this city. Mr..

been offered $3.50, 900 by Guthrie
and the same amount by Oklahoma
City to build to those places, but
he had rather build INTO Texarkana,
and that he would expect, in fact
Texarkana would have to give him
a bonus of like amount if he built
his road to this place. He speaks
as though he did not care whether
he built his road here or not and he
let is rest with our people whether
he came here or not, We will pub

TEXARKANA ARKANSAS THURSDAY JANUARY 49, 1899
HE TENDERED HIS RESIGNATION
The Quincy Journal Tells About W,
a. Williams and His
Successor.

We are under Obligations to Elk,
Smith, cashier of the State Bank of
Texarkana, tor the loan ofaQuincy
Qll) Journal, which has a half
column write up the resignation of
W. A. Williams, and we give such
of the report as we think would
interest those acquainted with Mr..
Williams heee:
The Journal has mentioned sever
al times that son ething would drop
in P. A. R. circles JefCre very long.
The first bell has rung which places
Mr. B. S, Josselyn, of Kansas City,
in fnll charge of the properties of
the Omaha, Kansas g. Eastern, and
Omaha & st. Louis lines at once.
W. A. Williams, the general super
intendent of these lines with head
quarters'in this city, two months
ago rendered his resignation with
an idea in view of retiring from the
railroad business to engage in diff
ferent business. HIS resignation
had never been acted upon and he
was not aware that his successor
had been named till Mr., B. S, JOS
sci n, OF Kansas City, walked into
his Office Saturday with signed
telegram from General Manager
Gillian giving him authority to
assume charge of all properties of
the line represented by Mr.. Will
liams, the matter of title to be de-
termined later.
Mr.. Williams showed his successor
over the property here, and yester-
day morning turned the Office here
over to Mr. Josselyn.
When seen by Journal repre-
sentative, Mr. Josselyn stated that
he had been sent here to take
charge of the road and showed the
telegram from Mr.. Gillham. Mr.
Josselyn said that outside of the
authorized telegram for him to
take charge of the lines he was in
the dark. " He rather judged from
the instructions contained in the
official order that he would have
even larger jurisdiction than that |
held by Mr. Williams, but so far he
could not say what his title would
be. He supposed that all were
aware of the reorganization now
going on in these properties and
that when the consolidation was
completed the Kansas City, North
ern connecting road from Kansas
City to Pattonsburg would be ad |
ded to the o. K G. & e. and O. &
St. L. organization. 81 shall, said |
Mr.. Josselyn, "begin an inspection

made trainmaster on the Cotton
Belt, with jurisdiction from Texar-
kama to Fort Worth, Dallas aud
Sherman, Mr.. Kress has held this
position before in railroad work,
and his will be no apprenticed

looked after the interest of this
line, has had his Office abolished,
that of division superintendent and
is now off on a vacation, but we
learn the Cotton Belt officials have
slated him for a position when he
reports for duty. We are glad
that the company found a place for
Col. Kress for we know he is one

ORANGE BLOSSOMS.

Yesterday at high noon at the
Marbury home ON Rose Hill, Mr., J.,
H. Morrison and Miss Lillian Mar
bury, we're united in marriage by
Rev. Tmmons, of the State Line
Methodist church.
The wedding was a quiet home
affair, only the relatives and a few
select friends forming the circle
around the contracting parties
Many costly presents were gwen
the couple, and none more approp,
riate than the furnishing of their
home by the employees of the Cen
tral Coal and Coke company.
Mr. Morrison is the store keeper
for the company and by his kind
treatment to the employees who
form the bulk of his trade, he has
won their friendship and admira-
tion.
Miss Lillian Marbury has grown
into womanhood and is admired by
all. She is one of our sweetest
young ladies and Mr. Hamilton has
certainly won a jewel for his bride.
The couple expected to take trip
to Kansas City but business was
such as to keep them at home for
the present.
The TEXARKANIAN sends them its
BEST wishes, in their journey
through life.

ticn in the amount of salaries paid the
clerks and the typewriter.
The attaches of the District Attorneys s
Office when approached ON the subject were
retieent, and in every instance except one
refused to discuss the matter This one,
however, stated in most positive language
that he would not submit TO reduction of
salary, and that if ii was insisted upon
he would resign. He also intimated that
one or more Of the attaches Of the office
would DO the same. He had not been so
informed. he stated. but he felt confident
that this course would be pursued.
A friend of District Attorney Anderson,
in discussing the matter. said that the
head OF the Office, OF course, has the privi-
lege Of dismissing any one or all OF his
assistants should he so desire. But, from
the course which il is said he has chosen
TO pursue. it is plain that he does not
desire, his friend said, 10 displace anyone
but simply to make room for another as
sistant- In this connection it was also
stated that the reduction in salary would
be only temporary, and would be made a
ground on which to ask Congress for an
increase in the appropriation for the Office.

Police and Fire departments for their an
nual parade and inspection. which win take
place on November Z. The appearance of
these two important adjuncts 20 the city

by the members of each organization, as
it is the only time in the year that they
are able 10 show themselves TO the public
without some other duty occupying their
whole attention. 1t is also the day on which
the best-drilled police company is presented
with the department flag the token of su-
periority in appearance. 1t was presented
to the Police Department by Commissioner
Wight. II now hangs in a glass case at the
Eighth precinct stationhouse, having been
won by Lieutenant Kenney's men at the last
drill The policemen are brushing up on
drill regulations and furnishing their uni
forms and equipments, in order TO pass
perfect inspection. 1t is very hard TO de-
termine which has the best chance of
bearing of the coveted prize. The number
of new men in the department will necessi-
tate great deal of drilling in order to
make the event compare with the spec
lacle OF last year. IL is said that the First
