their lot in life and of teaching them
to mutually assist each other.

SPOKE FOR THE BoER.
Senator Hale Denounced Great Brit
aims War.

Washington, Jan. pa speech,
sensational in its interest and interna-
tional in its scope, was delivered in
the senate today by Hale, of Maine.
The occasion of the utterance was the
simple question whether a resolution
introduced by Allen, of Nebraska, call
ing for information as to the recogni-
ton by this country of the diplomatic
representative of the Transvaal repub-
lie should be directed to the president
or secretary of state. Hale made the
question the subject of an impassioned
speech in which he declared that nine
tenths of the American people sympa-
thize with the Beers in their gallant
struggle for liberty against one of the
greatest powers in the world. He de-
clared that the war which Great Brit
ain is waging is the most fatal blow al
human liberty that has been struck In
the century. He declared "that the
American people are not in sympathy
with Great Britain in the South Afri-
can war to stamp out the liberty of the
people, and when Mr.. Balfour, in the
house OF commons. made such q state
ment. che should be met with some
disclaimer from this side Of the Allan
tic." He declared that the English
people themselves were not in favor Ot
this war, which "hsd been brought OF
by sharp cabinet minister engaged
with gold speculators.n Hale spoke
with unusual force, decisiveness and
earnestness, even for him. and his pas
sionate eloquence claimed the closest
attention OF every auditor.
The resolution, which previous Il
Hale's speech had caused a sharp col
loquy between Allen and Spooner, o
Wisconsin, was passed finally a
amended. Morgan Of Alabama ad

BRITISH ADVANCING
Slow and Cautious, But Keep
Moving Ahead.
HARD FIGHTING ON THE HILLS
Beers Forced Steadily Back From Kop-
10 to Kopje-Seem to Be Short
Of Ammunition.

Spearman's Camp, Jan. 23.-After
10 hours OF continuous and terrible fire
yesterday, Generals Hart and Clery ad-
vanced 900 yards. The Beers main
tanned an irregular fire during the
night, but the British outposts did not
reply.
This morning at daybreak the Beers
opened stiff fire. The British stood
to the guns where they had slept and
an engagement was renewed vigor-
ously. The field artillery poured shrap-
mel into the enemy's trenches.
A rumor that Ladysmith had been
relieved enlivened the British, who
sent up ringing cheer. This was
taken for an advance. The first kopje
was carried at the point of the bayonet,
and the Beers retreated to the next
kopje, which, like most Others, was
strewn with immense boulders. sur
mounted by mounds on the summit.
The British advanced steadily'and
the Beers relaxed slightly. The latter
did not show such tenacity as pre-
viously. Their Nordenfeldts fired at
long intervals, and their cannon fred
but seldom. Apparently the Beers
were short of ammunition. All day
the roar OF musketry fire continued.
The British took three Boer positions
ON the mountain and found shelter be-
hind the boulders.

The dispute between the Northern

the right OF the respective roads to ex-
tend their lines in the Clearwater terri
tory in Idaho, has been settled, and the
Northern Pacific is master of the situa-
tion. The o. X. & N. Co. has with
drawn its claims to the Clearwater
country, which is left in undisputed
possession of the Northern Pacific, and
the next move will be the retirement o:
A. l.. Mohler from the presidency OF

presidency of the Kansas City, Pitts-

Formal announcement of the two

NO BAR TO GREAT CANAL.
CIayt on Bulwer Treaty Will Not Stand
in the Way.

In the way.
New York, Jan. 20.---A special to the
Herald from Washington says: 1t
was said tonight by member Of the
foreign relations committee that AN
understanding exists between the Uni
ted States and Great Britain under
which this government can proceed
With the construction Of the Nicaragua
canal without reference to the proyis-
ions Of the Clayton. Bulwer treaty.
There is no doubt that since the nego-
tiations for the abrogation OF the Clay.
ton. Bulwer treaty failed, and since the
agitation OF the construction Of the
canal has been taken mp by congress.
discussion has occurred between the
two governments, and 1t is understood
that Great Britain has given this
country assurances that it need not let
the convention Of 1850 stand in the
way OF action.
1t has been known for year that
Great Britain was willing to abrogate
the convention on condition that she
receive concessions in the Alaska
boundary controversy, and it Is posi-
BILE, II she has made the statement
credited to her, she has coupled 1t with
the understanding that her rights else
where will receive consideration in
return for her concession.
Representative Sulzer has prepared
an amendmentto the Nicaragua cana
bill, requiring that American labor bs

struction of the canal.

II He Tries to Occupy It the General
May BE Disappointed.
New York, Jan. 20.--A special to the
Times from Washington says: II Gen.
real Joseph Wheeler expects to return
to Washington TO take seat in con-
gress without. further formality, it
looks as II he would meet with disap-
pointment. Inquiry has been made
since the announcement that he had
been relieved from further duty in the
Philippines, and it is found that there
is very general agreement on both sides
OF the house that it has been clearly
shown by the examination Of the case
OF Low, and other precedents, that he
has forfeited his right to n seat in con-
gress, and that the only thing open to
him is to go back to his district and
aeelsre-election If he desires to continue
in service in congress.
No doubt Is entertained that, II he
seeks reelection at n special election
to fill the vacancy, he will be returned
TO congress, perhaps without opposi.
tion, but 1t will be held by the house,
according to the best authorities in
both parties that the seat is now vacant
and will remain so until special elec-
ton has been held. Some OF his
friends in the house hope that he may
be induced not to make claim to the
seat, but to 60 at once before his peo-
pie for reelection. They think he
would win greater distinction by this
course and, ii reelected, he would be
entitled TO pay for the entire term from

New York, Jan. 20.-A special from
Washington to the Herald says: No
doubt exists in the minds of friends of
Brigadi6r- General Joseph Wheeler that
his return from the Philippines in COM
pliAilce with his own request is due to
the failure of General Otis to give him
active service in the field.
In certain quarters an effort is made
te-attribute General Wheeler's return
to inability to stand the climate and
to his age. In refutation of the former,
his friends point to statement he
made after visiting the American lines,
''the impression that the new country
in unhealthy IL wrong" Regarding
his age, 1t is pointed out that he is
only about year older than General
Otis.
The orders to General Wheeler to re-
turn were cabled about week ago.

men of company @, Thirtieth infantry,
Lieutenant Ralston commanding,
which was ambushed near Lipa, con-
sisted OF 30 convalescents from the
hospital, who were going to rejoin thA
regiment. The insurgents hid in tho
bushes along the road and opened fire
upon the pack train from three sides.
The Americans, in addition to their
casualties, were compelled to abandon
the train, which consisted OF 22 horses.
The latter, with their packs, fell into
the hands of the insurgents, who pur-
sued the retreating escort for three
miles along the road, until the Ameri-
cans were reinforced.

Father Beltrs n and several sisters OF

ers of war by the Yaquis for the last
six months were rescued by the victori-
Gus Mexican troops and are now with
Genera Torres. 1t is expected that
this last important victory of General
Torres will have the effect of scattering

MUST REBUILD TRACK.
ss Miles Of Northern Pacific in PotIatch
Valley.


Lewiston, Idaho, Jan. 19.-The
Northern Pacific train service out Of
Lewiston is completely paralyzed. 1t
is doubtful If another train will leave
this point or arrive here for 10 days.
No such utter Generalization has ever
taken place in the history OF the system
from st. Paul to the Pacific coast.
More than 25 miles OF track has been
washed out, and will have to be rebuilt
az q tremendous cost. There is no way
OF estimating the loss, but it will be
enormous. The whole Potlatch valley
has been washed clean by the flood,
and not a bridge remains to show
where the roadbed once was. As an
Indication of how complete q ruin has
been wrought, the original profile of
the road has been called for by the con-
tracing engineers before they can be-
gin TO rebuild.
