THE BUTCHERS BILL.
British Losses at Modder River Reach
Nearly a Thousand Men.

British Losses at Modder River Reach
Nearly a Thousand Men.
LONDON, Dec. 3.--As surmised, the
British dead and wounded at the hard
fought battle of Modder river number
only bare total of 43S, of which num-
Der 70 were killed, had been given out.
So it is impossible to deduct from the
butchers bill" such information re-
garding the nature of the fight as the
details as to losses of different units
generally indicate. From General
Foresteir-Walker's dispatch it is proven
that all reports of General Methuen's
advance after the battle of Modder
river were premature, though with
the railroad working, he should not
be long in constructing temporary
bridge. His enforced delay, doubtless
will be- of considerable service in Civ
ing his hard pushed column needful
rest and in allowing for the arrival of
reinforcenents, of which he must be
sorely in need, after three such fights,
placing hors-de-combat upwards of a
thousand men out of less than seven
thousand. General Foresteir-W Walkers
announcement that the Canadian
marksmen and other reinforcements
have been pushed forward to the
neighborhood of Orange river, to pro-
tect Methuen's line of Communications,
has relieved much anxiety here, where
it is fully expected the Beers would
attempt to attack the vulnerable points
of our line of communication.

TERRIBLE BATTLE.
It Is Said to Be the BIoodiest of the
Century.

LONDON, Nov. 30--The war Office has
received the following from Butler:
''CAPETowN, Nov. 29.--Gen. Methuen
reports as follows: Reconnoitered at
this morning the enemy's position on
Modder river and found them strongly
intrenched and concealed. There were
no means of outflanking, the river be-
ing full. Action was commenced with
artillery, mounted infantry and cavalry
at $50. The guard on the right and
Ninth brigade on the left attacked
their position in widely extended
formation at $3.50 and supported by
artillery, found itself in front of the
whole Boer force, eight thousand
strong, with two large guns, four
Krupps, etc. The naval brigade rem
dered great assistance from the rail
way. After desperate, hard fighting,
which lasted ten hours, our men, with
out food or water, and in a burning
sun, made the enemy quit their posi-
ton. General Polecarews was success
full in getting small party across the
river, CALAMITY assisted by three hun
dred Sappers."
LONDON, Nov. 30.-General Methuen
wires the queen that the battle at
Modder river is the bloodiest Of the
century. He says the result is terrible.
LONDON, Dec. although telegraph
and railroad communication is open
with Modder river, no further news of
General Methuen's movement or the
big fight has been given out. This is
generally taken to indicate that Gem
eral Methuen is again on the march
and that, as heretofore, he will not
again be heard from until he has
fought another battle and gained
another stage. Those who are ac-
quainted with General Methuen think
his terse description of the battle of
Modder river forecasts "a fearful
butchers bill"

terless ridges, along narrow trails and
through canons. At daylight, No

timbered canon upon the divide, run
ming into the rebels advance guard,
who retreated to the main body before
shooting. Col. Bell, who was in adj
vance with scouts and one company,
had the rebels in full roate before the
main body of his troops arrived, fee
ing down the mountains to the swamps
between Mangalaren and Auitas, leav-
ing ten dead and many wounded, and
abandoning two Nordenfelts, one two
inch Krupp, one Maxim and one
Hotchkiss. They were chased through
the swamps and thoroughly dispersed.

A NEW TRIPLE ALLIANCE.
Anglo decentralization Combina tion
Urged by Chamberlain.

Anglo German-Amer Combinat ion
Urged by Chamberlain.
LONDON, Dec. Joseph Chamber
lain, the secretary of state for the col
onies, in speech at luncheon at
Leicester yesterday, said that ever
tince the great split in the liberty
party he had found himself mark for
the ISLANDERS and Representations of
the ''baser sort of politicians" but
that he had found compensation in the
generous appreciation of the majority
of his countrymen. Continuing, Mr..
Chamberlain said he was deeply graf
flied that the foreign relations of Great
Britain We're SO satisfactory, and as
serted that the country owed debt Of
gratitude to Lord Salisbury for the
great Improvement in Great Britain's
position. 1t was especially gratifying,
he said, to note the friendly relations
existing between the Anglo-Saxon
branches, saying that the understand
ing between the United States and
Great Britain was indeed a guarantee
OF the peace of the world. A new
triple alliance, between the Teutonic
race and the two great branches of the
Anglo-Saxons, would, said the colonial
secretary, be potent influence in the
future of the world. The speaker ex-
planned that he used the word "alli-
ance," but that it mattered little
whether they had an alliance commit
ted to paper, or ian understanding
which existed in the minds of the
statesmen of the respective countries"

Cape
MANILA, Nov. 29.-The transport
Manauenz, with Lieutenant Colonel
Weob Hayes and three companies of
the Thirty-frst infantry on board
arrived here yesterday. She narrowly
escaped terrible disaster. The Off
GERS and soldiers were for twelve days
bailing with buckets. The steamer
was unseaworthy, undermined and
short of provisions. Her engines broke
down and she rolled for three days in
a typhoon. The colonel's report also
declares that the captain of the vessel
told him that the only thing which
brought them through was the fact
that the men were greenhorns and
failed to realize their danger, while
experienced seamen would have de-
serted the ship and taken to the boats
in mid-ocean.

DENIsoN, Dec "A terrible cutting
ARRAY occurred at Schleswig, a new
town on the Mondamin branch of the
Northwestern railway. The fight had
it's origin in Tipping nickel for the
drinks. One of the Mayne boys, living
in Ida county, six miles north of
Schleswig, lost, but kept the nickel
and refused to pay for the drinks. A
fight soon followed between the Mayne
boys and Pat McDonough and Pete
Gilmore, two railroaders. The Maynes
had knives, but the railroaders were
unarmed. Gilmore's throat was cut
from the back of the neck to the chin
and his face from the ear to the mouth.
His jugular vein was also cut. Nc
Donough was cut in the abdomen,
making cash through which his in
testines protruded. His hand was also
badly cut. Jim Mayne's hand was cut
by broken glass. The two wounded
men were taken on special train to
the hospital at Carroll, and it is re-
ported that McDonough cannot live.
The Maynes disappeared and at last
accounts had not been captured

President Decides to Give Him Supreme
Charge of Affairs in Cuba.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-General Leon
ard Wood will be the master of all
Cuba under the direction of the presi-
dent until the time comes when con-
gress takes action by providing new
civil government for the island. Gen
eral Wood is not to be called officially
"civil governor" He will be military
governor, in supreme command of the
island, but in the absence of any in
surrection or trouble-and none is ex-
pected by the administration-his
duties will chiefly be civil. General
Wood is to have the rank of major gen.
eral of volunteers, which will enable
him to outrank the regular army
officers who remain in Cuba under his
command. Some of the generals now
there are to be withdrawn, and those
who remain will be placed under Cen
eral Woods orders. To appease those
who are taken away the president will
make several promotions to brigadier
generalships of the regular army.
Those to be thus honored are Generals
Lee and Wilson.

DIES MONIES, Nov. ga new rail-

at Iowa Falls for the purpose of con-
structing railroad from Des Moines
to Usage, or some other connecting
point in northeastern Iowa. The name
of the new company is the Des Moines,
Iowg Falls & Northern, and the con-
templated route is from the city of
Des Moines northeasterly through Ne
vada, Iowa Falls, Hampton to Usage.
The articles of incorporation of the
new company have been filed with the
secretary of state. The capital of the
company is $4,000 at present, for pre-
liminary work only. 1t will be in
creased later. The proposed route
would give the road route through
the counties of Polk, Story, Hardin,
Franklin, Floyd and Mitchell, and a
connection with the Winona & South
western, which now terminates at
Usage. There are seventeen local
capitalists already interested in the
company and capital along the route
will be invested at once.

BREVITIES.

Gov. Shaw announces that he will ap-
point Clifford 2. Smith of Mason City
judge of the Twelfth judicial district
to succeed Judge John C. Sherwin,
supreme judge-elect. The resignation
of Judge Sherwln to take effect jan
uary /, reached the governor this
morning.
Near Muscatine recently Chas. Kuri-
ger, young farmer, aged 30 years,
went out to the field to repair some
fences on his farm, 6 miles west of
here, taking his gun with him. About
noon his body was found near a fence,
with the head blown off and the gun
lying near. The presumption is that
the discharge of the gun was acct
dental.
1t is stated that at present there
is but one prisoner in the Warren
county jail and that is boy but seven
years old. He is held on the charge of
petty larceny. For some time the res
dents have been missing little articles
and a watch was kept up till this little
man was found to be the guilty party.
He was selling his stolen goods to an
old man for trifiing sums. The last
charge against him is that he stole a
pair of shoes from one of the stores
and sold them for eight cents.
Adolph Ross man was instantly
killed few days ago by a train at

vass Of the vote cast for supreme judge,
superintendent of public instruction
and railroad commissioner has been
made by the state executive council
1t shows that the republican for judge
with four opponents, had 59,SlS plu-
rality, while the candidate for super
intendent, with five opponents had
56,O64. The candidate for railroad
commissioner on the republican ticket,
with five opponents, had 5s,223 plural
ity. Judge Sherwin had no opponent
on the socialistic labor ticket, whose
strength was about $50 votes only.
His vote, therefore, is regarded as
about the average strength of the
ticket. The canvassing board does not
GO into the returns for governor and
lieutenant governor. The legislature
does this work. The secretary of state
receives a semi-official return from the
county auditors, upon which the peo-
pie have to depend until the legislature
canvasses the vote for the two highest
offices. These returns are not yet
wholly in hand.

ADVANTAGES OF THE WAR.
Otis Says 1t Has Taught tho FilfpinoB
n Lesson.

Lesson.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The report Of
General Otis on the operations in the
Philippines up to August 81 last has
been made public by the war depart
ment. 1t is volume of 273 pages,
with an appendix of minor reports al
most as large. The report is chrome
logical recapitulation of events in the
islands since General Otis took COM
mand. General Otis says that it may
prove fortunate that Aguinaldo's in
surrection was not stamped out in
stanter, upon its inception. He says
that the natives throughout the islands
have peacefully, and even gladly, ac-
cepted American occupation of their
towns whenever American troops APP
peared, and that they have learned by
experience that the insurgents have
made q speciality of murder, outrage
and robbery, under the guise of estab-
fishing free and independent govern
ment, and his opinion is that they will
gladly submit to the former, SO soon
as they can be protected from the lat
ter. A column of 5000 troops, he says,
could at any time during the insurrec-
ton have marched from one end of the
island to the other without encounter
ing any serious difficulty, bat the in
surgents would inevitably have closed
in behind them as soon as they passed,
showing the necessity of having suf-
ficient troops to hold the country after
it had been captured.

FOUR BATTLES ARE LIKELY.
Little News From Seat of tho South
African War.


LONDON, Nov. 9.-Virtually the only
fresh news from the front is contained
in the dispatches of General Forester
Walker to the war Office. The cables
continue silent, presumably because
of General Buffers desire to prevent
leakage regarding important move
ments now being carried on. 1t seems
clear, however, that Lord Methuen n
continuing to advance rapidly, and
that, finding the railway much dam
aged, he left it behind him. When
telegraphic communication is resumed,
it is quite possible that news may come
of four simultaneous battles, at Mod
der River, Arundel, Stormsberg and
Colenso. AS the Beers, according to
General Forestier-W Walkers advices,
were leaving Kimberley for the south,
it is regarded as not improbable that
Colonel Kekewich is already marching,
with 1000 troops, to meet Lord
Methuen. 1t is believed that after the
relief of Kimberley Lord Methuen will
proceed to the relief of Mafeking,
about which considerable anxiety is
still felt

DIES MONIES, Dec. 2.-Adjutant Gen.
eral Byers has submitted to the COVER
nor his biennial report covering the
period ending November 80, 1899. 1t
is one of the largest reports made to
the governor from this office since
the civil war and contains much OF
historical interest relative to the part
Iowa troops took in the Spanish-Amer-
lean and Philippine wars. In addition
there are some recommendations that
will be of particular interest to mem
bers of the guard, among which are
those that the election of officers be
abolished and that they be appointed,
that the guard be made part of the
national military forces in fact as well
as name, some recommendations with
reference to the reorganization, n rec
ommendation that a new arsenal be
built in Des Moines and another that
a permanent camp ground with perm
anent improvements be provided for
the troops and one that officers of the
regular army be detailed to service
with regiments and companies with a
view of promoting their efficiency and
several others of almost equal impor-
lance.
