The events of the past fortnight
in South Africa have spoiled the
criticisms of the Democratic fault
finders In regard to the conduct of
the war by the Mckinley administra-
ton. British losses in Africa in this
fortnight have been as great as the
American losses in Cuba and the
Philippines in an entire year of fight
ing, and utterly destroy the oppor-
tuuity for complaint which Demo-
cratic scolds were utilizing for tenn
porarY political effect.

British Troops Surrounded and
Captured by Beers.

| Ladysmith, Oct. 31.-The column
troops consisting of the Irish Fusi-
leers, the Tenth Mountain battery,
and the Gloucester regiment, which
was sent against the Beers Sunday
has been surrounded and captured by
the Beers. The British officers con-
| firm the news.
London, Oct. 31.-All England was
startled today at the news of first
severe disaster to the British in South
Africa. General White, wiring from
Ladysmith at midnight, reports: THE
column was sent to guard the hill on
| our left flank, was surrounded in the
hills and after losing heavily had to
capitulate. The casualties have not
yet been ascertained. A Boer order
ly came into our lines this evening
under a flag of truce with letters from
the survivors of the captured column
asking assistance to bury the dead,
fear there is no doubt of the
columns capture. formed the plan
in the working out of which the
disaster occurred, and 1 am alone re-
sponsible. The troops are not blame
worthy, as their position was I'M
tenable
Ladysmith, Nov. IA heavy art.
illery battle was fought here all day
yesterday between the Beers and
British. 1t is still continuing, the
British using so pound naval guns,
and Beers using 40 Founders. The
city is closely beseiged.
London, Nov. IA dispatch was
finally received from Gen. White Civ
ing the details of the capture of his
left wing. White wires as follows:
"The lost detachment was under
Col. Carleton who started Sunday
night to seize Nicholson Mex, thus
turning the enemy's right. Carleton
got within two miles of Nicholson
unmolested, when suddenly powders
were rolled down upon him from the
hills and a few rifle shots were fired.
This stampeded the mules drawing
ammunition and they disappeared in
dire confusion, with practically all
the gun equipments. Carleton then
entrenched his force on a near by
mill. Monday morning the Beers at
tackled the British position in full
force. Their fire was scorching and
two companies of the Gloucester
shire regiment were obliged to retire
from their advanced position. The
enemy then pressed in at close range
and our losses were numerous. AT 3
O'Clock in the afternoon our ammuni-
ton was practically exhausted. When
the Beers stormed our position and
our survivors were captured. The
enemy treated our wounded with
great humanity. Gen. Joubert dis
patched a letter offering me safe
conduct for doctors and ambulances
to remove our wounded. These have
been sent. l understand the prison
ers have been sent to Pretoria. The
failure of the column was due to the
stampeding of the mules"
The security of LadysmiCh is I'M
fected.
A dispatch this afternoon from
Ladysmith says the garrison is still
hopeful and cheerful. Guns from the
cruiser Powerful did effective work
Tuesday in replying to Boer artillery.
The naval guns silenced the Boer
artillery several times.

Mosby is Cleared.

Eddyville Tribune: AS our readers
will doubtless remember, this much
talked of case was commenced in the
latter part of August by z. T. Vance
filing complaint with .. S. Commits
sioner Hunter of Ottumwa, charging
Clyde Mosby with having received
from the Eddyville post Office letter
addressed to amy Constable" and
which belonged properly to him,
Vance, That the letter contained
a notice sent by W.P. Clark, of Abel,
Iowa, to be served on Mosby, to quiet
title in some land. That Mosby Sc
GREETED and embezzled the letter, and
in that manner violated section 1892
of the United States statutes, which
fixes a maximum punishment of one
year at hard labor for the offense.
Mosby waived examination and was
bound over to the U. S. grand jury
which met in Keokuk, was indicted
and the case assigned for trial before
u. s. Judge Woolson on Tuesday. On
Wednesday the case was called for
trial. The government appearing by
U. s. District Attorney Miles and his
deputy and Mosby by w. R. Nelson,
of Eddyville. A jury was empaneled
a ID the government offered its evil
dence, consisting of that of the pros
ecuting witness q. t. Vance, Geo.
Chord, F. M. Hunter, w. P. Clark,
and deputy US. Marshall Richards
At the conclusion of the evidence for
the government, Attorney Nelson
moved the court to direct the jury to
return a verdict acquitting and dis.
charging the defendant Mosby fol-
several reasons, among which were;
1st-That the letter was so indefi'
nitely addressed as not to warrant its
delivery to any person.
2d-That it was not shown thai
Mosby was not entitled to the letter
having the same rights, duties, ane
RESPONSIBILITIES as constables.
3d-That there was no evidence o.
concealment of the letter by Mosb)
and no intent to commit crime.
The motion was argued by the at
torneys before his Hon. Judge Wool
son. who held with Attorney Nelson
that the government had failed Il
make a case against Mosby and or
dered the jnry to return a verdict II
his favor. Thus ended the case o
which so much has been said.
