His Lordshfp Speaks OF the Jealousy
of Other Nations.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-Lord Rosebery at
private dinner on wednesday referred to
the war and the heavy loss of life, saying
that they had to deplore the death of Gen.
Symons and before they sheathed the sword
there would be many more such losses In
the meanwhile, he added, the country ought
to present a united front to the enemy. In
his opinion the Transvaal was not a very
complicated question, but merely the effort
Of community to put back the cloak"
Referring to Majuba hill, Lord Rosebery
said Mr.. Gladstones action was determined
by the belief that the power of Great
Britain was great that she could afford
to do things other nations could not afford
to do without risk. The Beers regarded Mr.
Gladstone's magnanimity as a proof Of
weakness on which they could encroach
Dwelling on the unfriendliness of the for
eign press and foreign public opinion, Lord
Rosebery said: This is no little war. There
are nations watching with eagerness every
trip, every stumble, and, much more. every
catastrophe and disaster that may oyertake
our arms. War waged under these condi-
tlons, therefore, is not little war. do not

not trying to gain, but to maintain an en-

are the most conservative force in the

day says; A man supposed to be dead
appeared in Chicago yesterday and by

$4,000. This was the news sent 10 Los

under conditions that indicated suicide
by asphyxiation.

Wolfsohn's assertion that he Is alive
only deepens the mystery regarding the
identy and manner Of death OF the uni
Identified man. The latter's body was
found in a lodging house Of Los An

Mystery at Niagara.

Niagara, Falls, n. Y, Dec. 25.-This
evening two young men whose names
are unknown. were driven to the cliff
above the promenade at the Whirlpool
rapids on the Canadian side OF the river
and were lowered TO the Promenade,
They did not return in an hour and
search was made for them. No trace
Of them could be found and the police
were notified. Footprints Of the two
men in the snow were followed to the
extreme end Of the promenade toward
the whirlpool. Further along the bank
there we're signs Of body having fallen
In the snow and the footprints OF only
one man could be discerned. Owing
to the darkness the search had to be
discontinued, but men are stationed
along the river on the watch for the

terious affair as case Of murder and
suicide or double suicide.

To GOV. JOHNSTON.
Senator MORGAN Sends His warmest Com

Birmingham, Ala, Dec, Ex-senator
John IT, Morgan has replied 10 the open
letter Of Gov. Johnston, charging that
certain indirect statements made con-
corning his (Johnston's) connection with
the university land scandal upon the
floor OF the United States Senate were
untrue. The reply severely criticises
the governors action in connection with
the sale OF valuable mineral lands OF
the state university 10 the Sloss-Shef-
field Steel and Iron company. II con-
tlnues In part:
"You have attempted TO put my state.
ment in a false and garbled way so that
YOU could make a denial Of what you
either invented or profess to have heard
that I have said In the Senate, knowing
that you could not deny what did
say"
After quoting from the record the
words used In reference TO the Alabama
corporations, seeking protection OF the
laws Of New Jersey, Senator Morgan
continues: "The charge is distinct and
unambiguous that y owned or had
owned a large amount Of stock in an
Alabama corporation, one OF several
that had sold their property Of every

the thick Of the fight at Modder river.
No details were given. except that the
dispatch indicates that the worst Is to
be feared, as Il emphasizes the fact
that the naval brigade, Of which the
two brothers were members, suffered
terribly in the battle, Mr. Davis stated
that the information had aroused the
worst fears for the safety Of his broth
ers, as he had not known before today
that they were with that division OF
the naval brigade engaged at Modder
river. The only detail added TO the
message Is that the long march of Gen.
Methuen before the battle caused great
suffering among the men and was one
OF the most severe marches In the re-
cent history Of the British army.
