Hour Fight.
MoLTENo, Cape Colony, Sunday, Dec.
10.-General Gatacre left Putters Kraal
by train for Molteno and then pro-
ceeded by forced march IL miles to-
wards Stormberg. He had 1000 men,
including the Northum berland Fusil-
GERS, the Royal Irish Rifles and two
batteries of field artillery.
The British were unmolested by the
Beers until the Boer position was
reached, when hot fire was unexpect-
eddy opened upon the advancing col
umn. The engagement began at 4:l5
a. m. At 7 a. M, after sharp artil-
lery duel, the British retired. They
are now marching toward Molteno.
General Gatacre found the enemy's
position impregnable. 1t was impos-
sible for the British infantry to get at
the Beers.
Disastrous Movement.
General Gatacre's movement may be-
termed reconnaissance in force. Its
object was to ascertain the strength of
the position of the Beers, who were
strongly entrenched along the Storm
berg range. He left Putters Kraal
shortly after noon Saturday with a
fighting force slightly over A. 900 men.
Leaving Molteno at 9 Saturday even
ing he made a memorable night march
over the rocks and veldt. There was
no sound except steady tramp and
there were no distinguishing lights.
The column arrived safely within q
couple of miles of its destination, the
only incidents of the march being an
occasional sudden call of "halt," under
the belief that the Beers were near.
Suddenly a terrific fire opened stimuli
taneously on the British front and right
flank. The Royal Irish Rifles, which
formed the advance, sought shelter be-
hind neighboring kopje and were
speedily joined by the remainder of the
column. 1t was soon found, however,
that this position also was covered by
Boer guns, which were more powerful
than had been supposed.
Sought a Safer Position.
The troops, therefore, sought safer
position about half mile away. two
batteries in the meantime engaging the
Beers and covering the troops in their
withdrawal
The action now became general at
long range, and a detachment of
mounted infantry moved northward
with view of using Cuttings on the
enemy's right flank. Suddenly strong
commando was seen moving from the
north, and the Royal Irish Rifles and
the Northumberland regiment were
sent out to meet it.
1t was soon discovered, ;, however, that
the Beers had machine guns we'll
placed. and the British were compelled
to face terrible fire. Finding it i'm
possible to hold the position in the face
of an enemy apparently superior in
position, numbers and artillery, the
British retired on Molteno, the Beers
following up the retirement closely,
and bringing two big guns to bear on
the retiring column.

THE CASE OF WILSON
He Will knOw Tomorrow About d
 New Trial.

The cf5en continued hearing of the arguments in the motion for new trial in the case of Henry Wilson took p.ace yesterday afternoon before Judge Street. It was brief Judge Campbell, counsel for the prisoner, said the mo tion was based in the first place on
 the ground that the court had erred in it's instructions to the jury touching the definition Of self defense In support Of his position Judge Camp bell quoted from a California report showing that the words of the code were not to be rigidly applied and that a man need not wait to be driven to the wall" before he should raise his arm with deadly effect against his az sailant
 He next alluded to the insufficiency of the evidence upon which the verdict
 was found. He recited the appearance
 of the Kelloggs and Davenport, who
 was killed, at the defendants home their threatening conduct, their angry motive for coming and the discharge of a gun, calculated to draw Wilson from his house, when the intended as- sassination would be perpetrated be- yond the range Of eye witnesses. The counsel had caused two witnesses to be brought from Wickenburg, Thomas Cook and Mrs. Lola Whiteside. They were not used but it was understood that one of them was expected to teS- tify that the Kelloggs and Davenport had been heard to say the night before Davenport was killed that they in tended. to kill Wilson in the morning.
 In reply Judge Baker, representing the territory, referred the court to the evidence already before the court and Jury. He admitted the sacrednesS Of Wilson's home and the truism that mans house is his castle, but said he can issue forth and kill his en- emies." Reg 1rding the dIefense's ob- lection to the instructions to the jury, Judge Baker argued at considerable length that it was not well founded
 At the conclusion of the arguments the court took the matter under ad- visement until tomorrow, when if the motion is denied, he will pass sen- rence upon Wilson
 The cases of the city against the various additions for annexation were continued until the next term of court, Judge Street saying ne believed that an amicable adjustment of the matter would be reached in the meantime.
 In the case of Crow vs. Wilson, the plaintiff was given judgment and stay of execution was granted. The rest of the business of the day was made up of orders, continuances and decrees of divorce.

THE FITNESS OF THINGS.


 Among the many novel enterprises intended to promote festivity during jubilee week was that of a restaurant keeper. He had the front of his place of business thickly placarded to an nounce such delicacies( as Sampson souD,' Dewey clam fritters." Lee clam -chowder," 'aHobson deviIed crabs, ' Otis broiled lObsters'' and the like.
 An idler who chanced to be passing remarked:
 Haven't you made a mistaken
 Whereabouts? ?" !,
 "Oughtn't you to change things around so as to make it Hobson broiled lObster?''
 The prCprietor's face showed ifnne- diate resentment of the disrespect to brave young man.
 No, siri" he exclaimed, ''Hobson is no lobster. A little weak-headed, maN- be. but no lobster. I've tried to keeh everything personal out of those signs, anyhow. But there was one tempta- ton I couldn't resist. See that one?" he asked, pointing to a conspicuous card.
 You mean Bob Evans steak?'
 Yep. That's the one. That steaks good and tough all the way through. and that's my idea of Bob. Wash ington Star.

VALUE OF RAILROAD
The Board of EquaIizaiion Has Fin
 iShed Its LaborS.

The territorial board of equalization yesterday finished it's labors of the June session, consisting of de termining railroad valuations. Territorial Auditor Dr. Vickers crowded the work with 50 much dispatch that the work was completed in five days. He received distinguished assistance from the other members of the board, Messrs. M. IF. Freeman, R. N. Fredericks and Captain E. A. Gutter.
 The railroads themselves offered none of the usual obstacles. Their re- turns were extraordinarily liberal, far above those Of previous returns. Those of the Santa Fe Pacific and the Southern Pacific were so much in ex- cess of those Of previous years that they were permitted by the board to stand.
 Departing from the custom of it's predecessors. the board took into con- sideration the earnings of railroads, which are sometimes independent of their equipment Some of the roads were therefore extensively raised. The new valuations are as follows:
