COMPLETELY INVESTED.
White Is Putting Up Vigorous Defense
Mt Ladysmith.

New York, Nov. 10.-A dispatch to the
World from Estcourt says: Trust
worthy information concerning the
actual state of affairs at Ladysmith
comes from two civilians who arrived
to-day, having escaped from the be-
sieged town by evading the British pa
trolls and stealing through the Boer
lines. They say thaB both the town and
British camp are completely invested
and that artillery firing back and forth
is continuous.
The bombardment is heavy, but its
effect is reported to be petty. The
Beers are slightly superior in strength,
but the British forces maintain Wig
orous defense, fighting daily. There
We're three attacks on the side of Lady
smith last Friday. The accounts pre-
viously received through native run-
ners We're greatly exaggerated.
The main British attack was on ths
Boer batteries. stationed to the east
ward The British loss in that action
was about $50 killed or wounded. 1t is
supposed that the Beers suffered fan
more.
There was fighting also in the direc-
ton of ColenSo on Friday. The fight
was a smart attack made by Colonel
Brocklehurst on the Free State Beers
posted near Dewdorp on the southwest.
The British drove the Beers back there
and disabled one of the guns which had
been Smelling the British camp.
The British lost in that fight two Off
GERS and eight soldiers killed and 20
officers and men wounded.

LUNG TERM BONDS.
The Refunding of the Fours and Elves
Considered by the Cabinet.

Washington, Nov. 4.-The question of
the purchase of United States bonds by
the government was under discussion by
the cabinet to-day. Secretary Gage ex-
planned the situation fully and it now ap-
pears to be settled that no purchases will
be made, for the present at least. AL
though the secretary has not expressed
his views on the subject for publication,
1t is known that he, with other treasury
ofhcials, is considering the question of
refunding the fours and fives into long
term bonds bearing per cent interest,
This action would necessitate congress

EASTERN QUESTIONS
Will Be Discussed by Pauncefote and the
State Department.

Washington, Nov. 10.-Lord Paunce-
fote. the British ambassador, accom-
panied by Gerald Lowther, the new
first secretary of the British embassy,
called to-day on Secretary Hay. There
is more than usual interest connected
with the return of the British ambas-
sador at this time, owing to recant
moves in connection with China and
other topics in which this government
and Great Britain are more or less mu-
tually concerned. The permanent de-
limination of the Alaskan boundary
probably will be taken up at an early
day, but no definite plan has been put
forward as yet nor is there at present
any negotiation for the reassembling of
the Anglo American commission.

No Change in Plans.

Washington, Nov. 10.--Secretary
Root feels no concern over the transfer
of Aguinaldo's base of operations to
Bayombang. The secretary said to-day
the movement was distinctly retro
grade and in the nature of retreat
on finding that his former base was
untenable. Throughout the war depart
ment the view prevails that Aguinal-
dos move does not materially change
the campaign plans and that these will
be pushed with unabated vigor.
