LUCKY WOOER, BUT BEATEN
ANTONIO FOZIO MURDERoUSLY
ASSAULTED AT CASTLEGATE.
He Won a Girls Affections and His
Rival, It Is Charged, Slugged Him
With An Iron Pipe
Especial to The Eerald.)

Castlegate, Feb. 9.-Antonio Fazio,
an Italian laborer, was murderously
assaulted last night by an Italian, be-
lieved to be Frank Puchi, and, as a
result, sustained injuries from which
complete recovery is doubtful. Puchi's
weapon was an iron pipe, crooked at
one end.
The affair took place as Fazio was
leaving the home of his sweetheart. a
15-year-old girl of this city. No other
reason than jealousy is assigned for the
dastardly act, and it is known the two
men have rivaled each other in the
courtship of the girl in question.
Fazio, it seems, has been more sue
cessful in his suit than the other man,
who followed Fazio to the house, II IS
said, and waited for him to leave. As
Fazio reached the street, he was slug
ged and beaten over the head and arms
with the pipe.
The girl had hidden her lover good
bye at the door, but before re-entering
the house, was Mortified at hearing
groans and cries for help. She fastened
out into the darkness and saw the as
sailant beating her lover. The injured
man was carried to his home in an I'M
conscious condition
On being interviewed this morning,
he expressed the belief that PUchi did
the work, but he did not recognize him
positively at he time of the assault.
Fazio's arms are badly lacerated, and
several scalp wounds We're SUSTAINED
Puchi will be arrested today.
The mother of the girl is greatly dis
treSSed over the affair.

BELMONT (Battleground), Cape Colony,
Nov. 24.-5 p. m.-(New York World Cable
gram-Special Telegram General Lord
Methuen has won splendid victory. The
storming OF the Boer positions on the hills
by the British troops in the face of a with
ering fire was superb. The Guards brigade,
the Grenadiers in particular, swept UP a
steep hill In grand form The Northumber-
lands suffered severely, for the Boer marks
manship was accurate and deadly, hut their
behavior was magnificent.
The engagement began at daybreak yester-
day, the division attacking very strong
Boer position east of Belmont. Firing began
at 4:15 a. m. and lasted until $3.50 a. m, four
hours and quarter. At the end of that
period the burghers had been utterly routed,
retreating toward the north in great confu-
sion. They threw down their arms and ran
when met by bayonet charge. The British
losses, including the killed, the wounded
and the missing, foot up 226.
Fifty Beers were taken prisoners. None
of their guns were captured. They had one
Nordenfeldt in action. 1t is reported that
there was treacherous use of the white flag
by the Beers, one of them holding up the
flag in his left hand, while with the other
he shot and killed Lieutenant Brine.

The exclusive cable last Saturday an
nounced that the British government, under
the pressure Of the Transvaal state secre-

prisoners OF war at Pretoria consented to
remove the embargo on the importation of
foodstuffs imposed ait Delagoa bay since the
outbreak of hostilities. This week the
British press announces the arrival of a

the object of the visit, which really Is to
arrange with the Portuguese authorities for
the importation or foodstuffs into the Trans

President Kruger also is believed to be
anxious to exchange some British officers
for certain captive Beers, and especially
Colonel Sche, whose loss in the artillery
department is keenly felt The British have
less than 600 Beers as prisoners, while the

CLEARS UP MAINE EXPLOSION
Secret Investigation Dascloses Rat
tleship Was Blown Up with IxnOwI-
edge of Spanish officials.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-The World to-
morrow will publish a letter from Havana
stating that United States officials, after
months of secret investigation, have dis
covered that the battleship Maine was blown
up by guncotton torpedoes planted in the
bay for the purpose. The guncotton, 700
pounds of which was used, was sent from
Barcelona to Admiral Manterola. command
ing the port of Havana, and was either
stolen from the magazine where the stuff
was stored or taken away with the knowl-
edge of the officials in charge.
Admiral Manterola's records will un-
doubtedly show the names of his subor-
dinates who had direct control of the ex-
plosives and in that way the identity of
the authors and the executioners Of the plot
to destroy the Maine may be discovered.
Two or three men were engaged in the de-
struction of the Maine. A steam launch OF
Spanish make and now used by the United
States government in Havana harbor con-
veyed the two torpedoes, according to the
new evidence, to a point within few feet
of the berth of the Maine and anchored
them. The torpedoes were kept in position
by means Of buoys floated eleven feet under
water, ten feet above the anchors used to
prevent them from being swept away. The
torpedoes were exploded by contact with the
keel of the Maine as 1t swung at anchor.

TWO ELECTRIC CARS COLLIDE
Collision at Detroit Injuries Six Peo-

conductor was endeavoring to get the trolley
back on car in charge of Motorman Sec
come and Conductor Toepke came ahead on
the same track at top speed and the two
cars crashed together They telescoped for
several feet and 1t is almost a miracle that
several of the passengers were not killed.
The accident was due to the carelessness of
the crew OF the car backing down, which had
no right to back on that track.

HOPPER HITS THE PRINCE
Makes n Great Impression on the Heir
Apparent to the Throne
of England.

LONDON, Nov. 25.-(New York World
Cablegram-Special Telegram.)-De Wolf
Hopper was the recipient of remarkabl
compliment from the prince of Wales at the
concert in aid OF the American hospital
ship. :
After the Hopper company had given eelec-
tions from "El Captain" which In the rela-
lively small room were pretty deafeuing, the
prince asked Mrs. Potter to present Hopper,
with whom he expressed himself as greatly
taken.
The prince was seated in front Of the
STAGE with the elite of English society
crowding round snd gasping for recognition.
When the giant Hopper was presented he
bowed low, as the prince warmly shook
hands, saying:
II desire to thank you specially, Mr.. Hop
per, for your performance. / have been pre-
vented only by an immense pressure of en-
gagements from going to Ell Capitau, but
intend to go before you leave. That is the
only reason have not seen you BEFORE"
Hopper replied: But, sir, l think you
have heard us to some purpose" the allu-
sion being to the terrific din the singing had
made in the rooms. At this the prince
laughed heartily and England's elite
nearly trampled each other to death to hear
how Hopper had tickled the prince at the
first try. He then withdrew.
This special presentation was very
marked distinction, the only one conferred
that day by the prince, and Hopper has been
overwhelmed with congratulations

SITUATION IN NATAL SERIOUS
Outlook is Regarded as Distinctly
Gloomy for British with Three
BeIeaEuered GarrisOns.

LONDON, Nov. 25.-The position in Natal
remains full of perplexities which the CEN
sorship has increased. Although division
and a half have now reached Durham that
place is practically powerless until supplied
with cavalry and artillery and until these
arrive the situation will undoubtedly re-
main grave With three beleaguered garri-
sons in Natal, beside Kimberley and Mafe-
king, and no signs Of succor in the i'm
mediate future it is no wonder that the
outlook is regarded as distinctly gloomy to-
night and that when the most possible Is
made of General Methuen's success. such as
it was. That battle decided nothing and 1t
seems certain that many experts are OF the
opinion that the story of the return of the
pursuing cavalry without getting in touch
with the retreating Beers indicates that the
cavalry discovered in time that II 1t had
gone on it would have been in the Pretoria
race course with its comrades of the
Hussars
1t will not surprise anyone IL the Beers
are shortly again discovered in an en-
trenched position near the spot from which
General Methuen has just evicted them.
From no other point can even semblance
Of success be reported.
Mafeking Is apparently in worse plight
than the Britishers have hitherto cared to
admit and 1t is difficult to see how it can
be relieved for some time. While the Of
fetal dispatches from the Boer head laager
outside Ladysmith, dated November "a,
showed that the town was still flying the
Union Jack on Friday. the cheerful tone OF
the message and evident anticipation of the
speedy reduction of Ladyemith are not cal
culated to cheer anxious relatives.
The reported silence of the British guns
also again arouses fears of a shortness OF
ammunition, and the fact that the Beers
have Just placed in position another siege
gun shows that they have not yet done their
worst.
The arrival OF the German officers, some oil
whom 1t is learned gained large experience
in reducing fortifications in 1870, has caused
change OF tactics which will add to the
suspense OF the sorely tried garrison.
The situation in the northern portion oi
Cape Colony is about as unsatisfactory as II
can be. Beers are turning up in all direc-
tions. The Capetown dispatch received al
late hour tonight indicates that the enemy
has blown up railway bridge between
Rosmead junction and Mlddleburg with the
object OF preventing advance from Port
Elizabeth. This was effected by a small
commando, which, 1t is stated, remains In
the neighborhood. The effect of blowing ur
this bridge will tend to isolate Naauwpoort
which was recently reoccuped by the Brit
ish, and must delay the advance Of the troops
just arrived at Port Elizabeth.
