WASHINGTON. Jan. Sat 2 o'clock
this morning the condition OF Congress
man Dingley was unchanged. He was
resting easily and was less del;rsous than
he had been. Mr.. D.ngley's condition in

tremeIy critical. and despite the assurance
OF the physicians that they have not aban-

as to the outcome. the patient growing
gradually weaker.
Both John w. Foster and Wayne Mao

London, Oct. 30.-The South African
war has now been in progress nearly three
weeks and % far the British arms have
been consistently crowned with m0ment-
airy successes, though at = cost which veri-
hes President Krsgeris prediction that the
conflict would stagger humanity. But
though victory has fallen to Great Britain
whenever and wherever the issues were
Of paramount importance, GenerAl White's
position Is scarcely more reAssuring than
at the outbreak of the war. So far he has
only shown his ability TO outwit BY STRAIT
egy the BOers' strategy. That, in its con-
eepiion, meets high praise from the Brit
ish military critics Now he appears to
have reached the limit Of this game Of
war by which he was able to prevent the
massing Of the Boer columns and must
either meet the enemy's combined forces
or retreat Many people think that Gen
eral White should rest content with the
successes 50 far achieved and fall back on
COlensO, pointing out that he appears to
be fully able to move his forces quickly
and without deterioration. 1t ia scarcely
probable that he viii follow this course,
preferring rather to hold LAdysmith,
though against much superior numbers,
until reinforced Ii is the feeling that the
general intends 10 follow the latter course
Beers - units are not believed to indi-
cate that the same result can be achieved

very much afraid of FitEsimmona, did not
land q single blow, and only made one

blow falling short by several inches. The
blow delivered by Etzsimmons was a
short left jolt, which did not pass through
six inches Of space before landing on
Thorne's jaw. After ThOrne was counted
