DEATH OF HOBART.
vICE-PREsIDRNT's Battle FOR
LIFE Is ENDED.
The End Had Bson Expected fer Some
Time, and His Family Was GathersA 1t
his Bedside = sorrow Exprssssd by
Leading Men Of All Partie1.

New York, Nov 21.--Garret A. Ho-
bart, vice president OF the United
States, died at his home in Paterson,
N. j., at $3.50 o'clock this morning. At
his bedside were Mrs. Hobart, and his
SOD, Carrot A. Hobart. Jr.. together
with DIR. William X. Newton and his
wife and Private Secretary Evans.
Mr.. Hobart's death had been expected
for some hours The beginning of the
end came yesterday afternoon when
there was = sudden failure OF the heart
and from this attack Mr.. Hobart never
rallied. He had been sick for = long
time and had suffered frequently from
heart failure and his strength had been
undermined. Gradually the failure Of
the hearts action became more appar-
ent, and soon after midnight last night
Mr.. Hobart became unconscious. He
remained in that condition until his
death.
Owing to the prostration of Mrs.
Hobart the funeral arrangements have
not been completed. The only step
decided upon is that the services shall
be held in the church of the Redeemer
at Paterson and the interment in the

Big Battle Expected.

London, Nov. 24.-There has appar-
emily been no communication with
Estcourt since noon Tuesday, and the
Beers control the railroad to the Moot
river. Consequently, momentous de-
velopments may be expected at any
time. The Beers, it seems, are swarm
ing southwark. Large bodies are re-
ported all around Estcourt, and parties
appear to be threatening Pietermartiz-
burg
The Beers encamped at Highlands
Station are well supplied with artil-
lery, and all evidences tend to show
that the various Boer forces are being
largely increased by accessions from
the disaffected Cape burghers. The
serious deficiency in cavalry is being
felt by the British, who are unable to
keep in touch with the mobile Boer
forces, whose presence is hardly re-
ported before they are lost sight of,
only to appear at any vital point along
the line of communication General
Hildyard's force anchored at Estcourt
by the naval guard, cannot make an
attack until reinforcements arrive. A
big battle is imminent.

family plot at Cedar Lawn on Satur-
day, where the only daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Hobart was buried six years
ago. Rev. DIR. Magee will preach the
sermon.
The church can accommodate not
more than 500 persons, and as thous-
ands will be eager to attend the SER
vices 1t was suggested that they be
held In the armory, which will accom-
modate 10000 persons. 1t is known.
however, that Mrs. Hobart wishes the
funeral to be as quiet as possible, and
there is little likelihood thatsthe pro-
gramme will be changed.
Mr.. nobart's illness first attracted
public attention when he went to Long
Branch last summer. He spent por-
ton OF the summer there. and during
that time, had . number of weak spells

clan or family that he was seriously

Our CONSUL In Transv.sI.

London, Nov. 24-All callers at the
United States embassy yesterday were
informed that the United States was no
longer able to forward messages or
send information regarding the British
prisoners, President Kruger having re-
fused the request to allow Consul Mac
rum to transmit list of British pris-
oners. 1t is understood that President
Kruger objected to Mr.. Macrum on the
ground that the United States claims
to neutrality we're prejudiced by her
evident friendship for Great Britain.

THE PACIFIC CABLE.
Secretary Root, In His Report, VIII Urge
Its Construction.

us NOtrtfutttput
Washington, Nov. 26.--It is stated
that Secretary Root, in his report, will
be very urgent in his recommendations
for the immediate construction of a
cable line 10 the Philippines. He will
point out that the cheapest route will
be direct from Seattle TO the Philip
pines. The line between Seattle and
the Philippines would cost about
S., 900. 600, while it would cost So, 000,-
600 more il the line is laid from San
Francisco via Honolulu.
During the past year the war depart
ment alone spent more than 100000
for cable tolls, and, with the amount
paid by the navy and state depart
ments, more than half a million in all
has been paid for cable messages be-
tween this country and the Philip
pines. The secretary will point out
these facts to show that it will be
economy for the government to build
its own cable.

WHEELER WILL RESIGN.
sFighting Joe" Leaves Congress to Fight
for His Country.

Tor MS CountTys
Manila, Nov. 24.-General Wheeler,
known as Fighting Joe." has decided
not to return to congress, and has, it is
said, written letter to that effect to
President Mckinley, with request
that it be forwarded to the house Of
representatives General Wheeler says:
Congress, if it occupies the first day Of
the session in passing a resolution de-
claring that the sovereignty of the
United States is to be maintained in the
Philippines, thus dispelliug Aguinal-
dos delusion that the anti-imperialists
can assist him, will be performing
sacred duty. Such resolution would
save the lives of many American SOL
diers and of thousands of deluded Fill
pinos; would avert famine, suffering
and desolation from these islands and
would render unnecessary the expendi-
ture Of hundreds of millions of dollars"
