A GUESS AT BRITISH PLANS.

LONDON, December 2S.-In view of
the apparent supineness of the British
commanders in preventing the daily
strengthening and extending of the
Boer positions along the Tugela and
Modder rivers, which are now consid-
cred to be practically impregnable,
many experts here are coming to the
conclusion that the British have given
up the idea of carrying these positions
by assault, and will await the trans
port and cavalry required to give their
forces the necessary mobility, when
they hope to be in position TO besiege
the Beers in their respective Pleynas,
While Gen. Roberts. carries cut the
original plan of campaign-that of adj
vancing straight north on Bloemfon-
tein, the other generals detaching suffl-
Gent mobile troops to reach their goa.s
by circuitous routes.
There is nothing in the official or
best independent reports to indicate
that the beleaguered garrisons are in
any special straits calling for immedi-
ate relief. The latest advices from
Kimberley. where shortage is most
feared, report plenty Of food.
An interesting feature OF to-day's
news is the patriotic offers of service
from Indian princes. The Nizam OF
Hyderabad, replying to toast pro-
posed by Lord Curzon, the Viceroy, al
a banquet in Calcutta last evening,
said the proudest title he possessed was
that Of being the Queens faithful ally,
adding that his purse, his army and his
sword were ever at her disposal
The MahqIr3 lar of GWalior has asked
permission to serve on Gen. Roberts
staff ard has offered to send troops,
horses and a transport to South Africa.
The government Of France has APP
pointed Capt. Demange military at
tache at the Boer headquarters.
Many Cretans in Athens are offering
their services to the British consul for
the war in South Africa.

A DIZZY SCOOP"
IN the Evening Paper-A1leged
CIan-Na-GaeI Uprising.

IN the Evening Paper-Alleged
CIan-Na-GaeI Uprising.
Irish Meet" is the first line of a
scare head under which an evening
paper yesterday published dizzy
story about a secret meeting of Hi
bernians, Clam Gael, Knights of ST.
George, and other secret societies, al
legged TO have been held here Wednes-
day night. 1t appears that "Clan-Na-
Gael from towns for many miles
around were arriving in the city at all
hours" and chose from nearby towns
attended in almost complete bodies"
from which it is to be inferred that
the Clan-Na-Gael in this neck O. the
woods are MANNED and distigured
There was a very decided lurid tinge
to the article, which among other
blood thirsty> declarations, limited at
an armed invasion of Canada.
There are no societies Of the Clan-na-
Gael IN Wheeling or 'for miles around. -
The members Of the A. 0. H. and
Knights OF st. George were amused,
some of them angry about the article.
A fair proportion of the Knights are
Germans and persons of nationalities
ether than Irish. The article is sig
nifcantly silent about the place where
the meeting was held.
The gentlemen who are alleged to
have engineered the Clanna-Gael gath
ering are T. E. McVeigh, of Dublin,
Ireland, and w. s. Brennan and Nj.
Gallagher, CT Pittsburg, all of whom,
according to the evening paper, au-
dressed the meeting. Mr. McVeigh, it
is alleged, was reticent in talking to
the reporter. fearing a charge of trea-
son. He plead guilty to melting his
countrymen against England, however,
and admitted that another mission up
on which he visited America is to run
for Michael DaVitt'S seat in the House
of Commons.
The article explains that M. McVelgh
has sort of kept under cover" and it re-
manned for the vigilant reporter to discover
him at quiet hotel" 1t was no doubt
a matter of rates which took Mr.. McVeigh
to quiet hotel" T. E. McVeigh and Mr..
Gallagher have been here for some days
working in the interest Of the weekly pub
lication, and stopping a the Duard Hotel
on Twelfth street. Mr.. Guest, who is in
charge of a force of men working for the
publication, is stopping at the Bruins wick.
He laughed heartily when the article was
shown TO him by a Register reporter, and
appeared 10 regard it as a huge joke while
marvelling at the gullibility of the reporter
who swallowed the yarn.
Mr.. McVeigh was seen at the Duard and
became very sulen when the reporter ques-
toned him closely. He said the man men
toned in the article was his cousin, who
left the civ last night The a0toeranh of
T. z, McVeigh is spread on the Duard
register under date of December 18th, and
December 18th, in the same handwriting
Although the MeVeigh who registered on
Christmas is alleged TO have left, the clerk
has neglected to check off his name.
The entire story is a hoax.

British Deserter's Tale.

CAPE TOWN, December 23.-Col.
Otter, commanding the Canadian con-
tingent Of troops, is TO join the staff OF
Gen. Butler, all the members of which
are proceeding to Natal, indicating that
Gen. Buffers sphere will shortly be
confined to Natal.
A man named Green, former SER
geant-major of the British balloon de-
partment, is among the Boer prisoners
captured at Magersfontein. Green,
who deserted from Aldershot in 1893,
admitted that he had been some time
in the service of the Beers and had in
structed them in trenching. He says
there were $4,000 Beers at Mayors
fontein, q 900 of whom were engaged
the day of the battle. The Boer losses,
he also asserts were very heavy, the
trenches being full OF dead.
Green further declares that if the
attack had been pressed the Beers
would have yielded. He says the Boer
horses have to be taken to the Modder
river as water is so scarce at Mayors
fontein.

WASHINGTON, December 2S.--
Since the recent announcement of the
new policy of the Interior Department
misunderstanding wild Indian exhibit
ticns, the department has been deluged
with both written and oral inquiries.
Col. w. +. Cody has protested that
the action will nearly ruin his bust
ness. He sent representative here,
who urged Commissioner OF Indian
Affairs Jones to make an exception in
MS case. A number of other inter-
ested parties have also called at the
Indian bureau on the subject. a large
number OF letters on the subject, mcst-
ly indorsing the departments attitude,
have come by mail. Commissioner
Jones said there would be no change
in the departments policy and that he
was convinced the exhibitions have a
demoralizing tendency and retard In
dian progress. L is recognized. how

consent, Indians may be contracted
with and withdrawn from the reserVa-
tons and exhibited without the present
formality CT securing official sanction.

vice, and the effect will be most marked in
the carrying trade of that country Ger
many is already securing a profitable foot
hold in transatlantic navigation and she
will maintain it for years to come. a sud

suit in their immediate return of these

of them may be lost, others may be used
for different purposes and still others will
have become obsolete. Germanys nler-
