section during the war.
The notification came to the State De-
partment in the shape of a note from Mr..
Tower. In charge of the British Embassy
here. The details of the transfer of Brit
ish interests in case Of war had been pre-
viously arranged, so that all that was
necessary was the dispatch of a brief
cabegram to Mr.. Macrum at Pretoria.
This officer is the superior in rank TO the
other Consular representatives of the
United States, not only in the Transvaal
but in the Orange Free State. and he has
been instructed to give those officials the
necessary directions. The onlv other Con-
sular officer besiues Mr.. Macrum in the

who succeeded Mr.. Manion as Consular
agent at johannesburg. Mr. Manion hav-
ing resigned a few months ago. In the
Orange Free State the United States is
represented by Alfred Elliott, Consular
agent at Bloomfontein. He is an English
man, and therefore it is questionable
whether he will remain at his post in his
capa city as American agent or retire. In
the latter case Mr.. Macrum will probab
select some suitable American to take up
the duties of Consular agent.
There is no present intention at the
State Department to issue a proclamation
of neutrality. 1t is customary to omit
these proclamations until some emer
gency arises calling for their issue. and
such an emergency is not expected to oc
cur in South Africa.

ONE THOUSAND
CANADIAN TROOPS
FOR SOUTH AFRICA

OTTAWA, Ont, Oct. 13.-At a meeting
of the Cabinet to-day decision was
reached TO send 1000 Canadian soldiers to
South Africa as Canada's contribution to
the British force now fighting the Beers.
This is double the number of troops asked
for by the imperial Government. AT the
conclusion of the Cabinet meeting an of
fetal statement was handed to the press
by the Premier, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, as
follows:
1.-The Government has decided to send
1000 men 10 South Africa, a very much
larger number than any one of the other
colonies has sent and larger than the
British Government has suggested. The
only question in the way of the Govern
ment's acting more speedily in the mat
ter was as to whether or not Parliament
would have to be called on to meet the
expenditures. This point was got over
by the form of enlistment, the War Office
having stated that units of men of l25
each should be sent and that they would
be attached to imperial corps. The Cana
dian Government would havo preferred
to have sent a whole regiment with a Ca
madam officer in command. Good marks

now RACES. General Sir George Stewart
White has eleven guns and 5000 men and
is sanguine of success.
General White, with a strong column,
composed of infantry. cavalry and artil-
lery, accompanied by General Sir Archi-
bald Hunter, left Ladysmith before day
light and moved out toward Acton-Homes
to reconnoiter Acton-Homes lies fifteen
miles southwest of Ladysmith, on Vent

BRITONS BEGIN
TO REALIZE THAT
THE WAR IS ON

LONDON. Oct. 13.-The announcement
that the Beers had destroyed an armored
train on the western border of the Ira MS
Vaal Is calculated to bring home to 1.-The
man in the street. the realities of war.
Attempts are made to liken the occur
renee to the blowing UP of the United
States battleship Maine in Havana har-
Dor, but that event occurred in times of
peace. The Beers are doubtless within
their rights as belligerents if they are
responsible for the destruction of the
train.
Apart from this destruction of the
armored. train, the most notable change
in the position of affairs is the presence of
Beers at Maribogo, forty miles south of
Mateklng, which seems to indicate that
they are endeavoring to get Colonel
Baden-Powell between two fires
The gravity of the Boer advance can be
better estimated when 1t is realized that
they will thereby cut railway and tele-
graphic communication to the north
isolating several British positions which
must be speedily relieved.
Despite the optimistic reports of the
ability of Mafeking to repel attack, the
greatest anxiety prevails here regarding
the situation there. as 1t is known that
the redoubtable commandant, Cronje, who
captured the Jameson raiders, has the
strongest force yet put in the field with
the exception of Commandant General
Joubert's force. Cronje's troops now
number between 5000 and 10000 men,
The position in Natal has not materially
altered. The reported inroad of 5000 Beers
by way of Tintwa Pass is probably identi-
cal with the inroad of the force reported
yesterday as having crossed Van Reenans
Pass. The Tintwa column according to
the last advices. had reached within twen-
ty miles of Ladysmith. On that showing
there ought to be speedy news of fighting.
Ladysmith is at present the Aldershot Of
Natal.
A dispatch from Cape Town says that
no doubt is felt as to the loyalty of
Lerothidi and other native chiefs, and the
Basutos are still we'll in hand, but the
Resident Commissioner has decided to pa
troll the border in order to prevent raids.

citation in support of the Government. The
halt was crowded, over 5000 persons being
present in consequence of the report that
Rudyard Kipling would speak. The audi

triotic songs. The chairman, Lord Tai

According to the Daily Mails S
Cape Town correspondent, Mr..
Schrelner, Premier of Cape
Colony, will unreservedlv sup
port the imperial Government.
His previous reserve was die
tated by desire not to drive the
extreme Dutch residents to ex-
cesses. According to the same
authority the Railway Depart
ment had early intirnation of the
intention of the Beers to DESTROY
railway bridges over fourteen
streams, and sent adequate forces
to protect these points. The re-
suit was that the Beers post
poned their attempts.

Volksraad for Philopolis, has

ton to Ladysmith. In this case,
according to the dispatches, no
apprehension is felt as to the re-
suit. General White has twelve
guns and the Beers eleven.

ONDON, Oct. 14.-An
Edinburgh paper, the

Scotsman, this morning
asserts that a battle has taken
place between the forces OF
General Sir George Stewart
White, commanding in Natal,
and the Beers, who entered
Natal by way OF Van Keenan, S
Pass. General White, the Scots
man says, is very sanguine of the
success Of the British movement.
The foregoing report is con
sidered to be correct, as late last
night the War Office had news
OF a British advance from Lady
smith and was hourly expecting
further intelligence.
A dispatch to the Daily Tele-
graph from its correspondent at
Ladysmith, dated. at noon on
Friday, says:

Sir Archibald Hunter, proceeded
