Washington, Oct 21-Following a
| conference between the president and
Secretary Root. the latter telegraphed
to General Frederick Funston the ten
der of a brigadier generalship in the
newly formed volunteer service. Up
to the time the war department closed
today General F'unston's reply had not
been received by Adiutant General
Corbin. but the officials look upon the
press dispatch announcing General
Funston's purpose of accepting as set
Ting the fact that he will be back in
the service at an early date.
The selection Of General Funston
was made on merit, after Secretary
Root had submitted to the president a
list of officers with their record of serv-
ice. This list had been carefully gone
over and the essential features of re-
cent service in the field noted.
The president was evidently i'm
pressed with the official chronicle of
General Funston's work in the Philip
pines. which follows closely the press
dispatches Of his gallant deeds during
General MaeArthur's first advance to
the north. and his name was speedily
selected from the list.

MASSACRES EXPECTED
Natives of Rhodesia Said ito Be
on Point of Revolt

Chicago, Dec. 2O.-"The greatest prob
lem England will have to face in South
Africa" said DR.. A. c. Hammett, who
today returned from Rhodesia, will
probably be that of the natives. Even
if the Beers are suppressed, there are
signs that the natives will before long
put England in a very difficult position.
Traders from the north think that the
blacks will have to be conquered all
over again.
Almost all British and Americans in
Mashonaland have had to take refuge
in kraals, or fortified camps. as a result
of the war. The natives have become
restless. The whites expect at almost
any time to see the maSSacres of 1884
repeated, and the natives take advan-
tage of the concentration of British
forces in Cape Colony and Natal for a
general uprising"
DR.. Hammett spent several months
at the mission school settlement estab-
lished by his uncle, Bishop Hartzell, of
the Methodist Episcopal church, at Old
Umbaali, Mashonaland. The war having
made the conditions dangerous, Bishop
Hartzell and many workers came away
early leaving only enough Americans
to continue the work already begun.

danger at Old Umbaal," said DR.. Ham

GOMPERS ELECTED,

American Federation of
Labor
DELEGATES IN FAVOR
OF W0MAN'S SUFFRAGE
Want Constitutional Amendment
Passed Removing All Re-
StriCtionS of Sex

Detroit, Mich. Dec 20.-The longest
convention of the American Federation
Of Labor ever held ended this evening.
For II days the delegates were in ses-
sion. Declarations We're adopted con-
corning a great variety of questions Of
more or less public Importance, but for
the first time in many years no propo-
sitions were made or action taken even
remotely connected with the money
question.
Among the resolutions was one ap-
pealing to congress to submit TO state
legislatures a sixteenth constitutional
amendment to prohibit disfranchise-
ment of citizens on account of their sex,
and directing President Gompers to cor
respond with the trades unions of the
continental European countries with a
view of bringing about fraternal rela-
tons.
This afternoon a resolution was adop-
ted providing that any product of labor
represented to be union made shall not
be so considered unless it bears the
union label. The committee on labels
and ooycots reported in favor of drop
ping the names of all concerns now on
the unfair list, which list had grown to
unnecessarily large proportions on ac-
count of retaining so many old names
thereon. A proposition for adoption of
universal union label was rejected,
but the legislatures of the states and
congress We're asked to enact a law
covering the use of universal union
label

London, Dec. 81. GAS a. m.)-The
gravity of the military situation is
again becoming accumulated in the pub
lie mind, owing to the complete absence
of news Nothing has been heard from
Lord Methuen since Sunday; and it is
feared that his communications have
been cut If this be so, his position is
dangerous.
A corr espondent of the Daily News,
telegraphing from Modder River last
Saturday, says: 1.-THE Boer position, al
ready formidable on December II, has
since been greatly strengthened, ex-
tending for an area of twelve miles. 1t
is entrenched according to the most
modern methods throughout it's entire
length wire fences have been placed
before all the trenches at every point;
guns have been got into position; and
there is every evidence that the Beers
are we'll supplied with ammunition.
Only a powerful attacking force can
hope to make a successful assault"
The Times, in an article from the pen
y
persion of the British forces, quotes the
maxim of Napoleon in favor of con-
centration and grieves that Lord Me
thuen did not retire to Orange River a
week ago. The latest dispatches re-
ceived seem to show that the Boer for
ces are standing on the defensive at
all points.
Gen. Butler is ordering the troops
now arriving at Cape Town to proceed
to Durham to reinforce the Natal col
umn. Absence of news from him has
led to :. surmise that he is trying to
join Gen. White by flank movement.
The appeals for yeomanry and vol
unteers are being responded to with
the greatest enthusiasm in all parts of
the country. Lord Wolseley proposes
that the force being raised by the lord
mayor Of London be called the CITY
of London Imperial Volunteers. The
government expects the total of yeo-
many and volunteers to reach 5000.
Baron Gresham will command, with
Lord Londale as adjutant general. The
papers are now generally joining IN
free criticism of the government and
the war officials, as day by day fresh
proofs of the unpreparedness come to
light. Special stress is laid upon the
failure to provide proper transports,
which compels the delay of reinforce
ments. 1t is reported that the queen
will abandon her proposed visit to Italy
owing to the war.

PEST HOUSE BURNS
Yellow Fever Hospital in Santa
90 Consumed BY Fire

Santiago de Cuba, Dec. 2O.-The yellow
fever hospital, located on an island across
the bay, was destroyed by fire today Be
fore the American occupation the building
had been used by the Spanish as a pest
house for the treatment of victims of
small pox, yellow fever and Aslatic
plague. During the epidemic last summer
many hundreds of American soldiers and
civilians were treated there; but for some
time the building has been used as ware
house for hospital supplies.
The fire was evidently of incendiary
origin, as several previous attempts to de-
stroy the building had been made during
the last four days Large quantities Of
hospital supplies, tents, cots and blankets
were destroyed. The adjoining building,
containing a hundred bodies of American
soldiers in sealed collins ready to be
shipped to the United States. was saved
by the heroic efforts of the firemen, who
went quickly in a government tug to the
scene of the confiagration. A new hospi-
tai will be erected Immediately on the
same site.

A REPUBLICAN MAYOR.
For the first time since 1890, with
the exception of one year, we have
elected a republican mayor, and we
have elected him for two years. We
have an opportunity before us now
which we have never had before. We
have captured the citadel of the enemy.
We have broken the back of the demo-
cracy OF Massachusetts, and members
who belong TO this club outside of Bos
ton are interested in this matter, be-
cause every democratic governor of
Massachusetts which the state has had
since the republican party was organ
tied was elected by the vote of Boston.
What | am anxious for is that we
should make the most of our opportu
nifty. Few. l think, who live outside of
Boston, and few of those who live in
Boston, but dc not serve on the repub-
lican city committee, have an idea of
what 1t means to be republican in
this city.
For the last four years the demo-
cratic administration has been en-
trenchipg itself in power by every con-
ceivabie means. 1t has used the city
treasury as the party treasury, and
from Jan. 6, 1885, when Josiah Quincy
(who was repudiated last Tuesday and
not Gen. Collins) took his seat the
net debt of the city of Boston has in
