CAUSED BY CIGARETTES.
The Mysterious Fire at Bradford
Recently.

Bradford, Feb. 27.-The mystery
concerning the burning of II. j. Ord
ways barn few weeks ago has been
solved. A little boy, who has been
living in the family, has confessed
that 'le was the cause of setting the
fire. The family were away and as
he had lately acquired the habit of
smoking cigarettes, he pulverized some
dried leaves and made them into a
cigarette and proceeded to the barn
to do the chores, accidentally stumb-
ling over the hay which was set on
fire, and in a short time the barn was
consumed, together with its contents
and part of the stock.

| London, Feb. u. "MaJupa
avenged" ''Cronje surrenders" are
expressions shouted all over London
today, yet few outward signs of ma
tional Joy has Roberts despatch really
caused. The capitulation was looked
upon as almost certain for a week
past, and now that it has come, en-
thusiasm finds itself discounted by
anticipation.
The magnitude of the success of
Little Bobs is almost overlooked in
satisfaction of the fact that it is syn
chronized with the anniversary OF
Maiuba hill, and has wiped out the
dishonor to the nation of years stand
ing. While all papers comment on
this happy coincidence they have not
forgotten the splendid bravery of the
enemy. Further details anxiously a
waited, especially the number of men
in Cronje's force.
London, Feb. 27,-The Beers are
assembling an army near Bloemfon-
tein, which is to dispute the invasion of
Lord Roberts This intelligence
comes from Pretoria by way of LOU
renzo Marques. The commandos are
described as Christening from all
quarters of the two republics.
No estimate is made of their num-
bers but the withdrawal of the Beers
from most of the places where they
have been in contact with the British
except the district near Ladysmith
may raise the resisting force of 30, 900
men. This figure assumes that the
Beers have between sixty and seventy
thousand men IN he field.
The gathering of this army across
the path of Lord Roberts gives signiti-
canoe to Gen. Cronje's. steadfast de-
ence. He has engaged the.corps of Lord
Roberts for ten days now: and, has
given time for the dispersed Boer
factions to get together and to prepare
positions to receive the British ad-
vance.
London, Feb. 27,-Marquis Lans-
down secretary of State for the war,
announced in the house of Lords this
morning, that the prisoners captured
with Cronie numbered about 5000.
Cronie will be sent to Cape Town.
London, Feb. 27.-A letter from a
member of the First Dragons in
South Africa confirms the report that
a supply train, seven miles long,
reached Ladysmith during the en-
gagement at Spion Kop. The Dra-
goons were the escort of the train. A
letter says: "That is why Butler en-
gagged the enemy at Spion Kop. Old
Butler knows what he is doing. We
are willing to follow him in spite OF

London, Feb. 27.-Roberts cables:
Paardeberg, eleven a. m.-From in
formation furnished daily by the in
telligence department it became ap-
parent that Cronje's force was becom-
ing more depressed and that the dis
content of the troops and the discord

by the disappointment when the Boer

KRUGER's PLANS.
Expected That He Will Endeavor to
Secure Intervention.
'or to

Grand Rapids, Mich, Oct. 12. - P.
Louter Vessels, special commissioner of
the South African republics to the Unit
ed States, has received Il letter from
Secretary De Bruyn of the Boer ENJOYS,
now III Holland, containing the first reli-
able and definite information of the plans
of President Kruger that has been made
public.
The letter states that President Kru-
ger will leave Delagoa Bay on the Meth
erlands warShip Gelderland early in Oc-
tober and thus he has probably already
embarked. He will be taken to Holland,
where the envoys are awaiting him.
In regard to the intimation in British
newspapers that English warships may
be sent in pursuit Mr.. Vessels said the
ENJOYS were in position to state officially
that any such action by England would
be accepted by the Netherlands as direct
declaration of war, and the little Dutch
nation would act accordingly.
President Kruger bears a commission
from the Boer republics, but exactly
what it is not even the ENJOYS know.
They suppose, however, that he will en-
deapor to secure intervention by one or
all Of the European powers to the end
that the individuality of the republics

have preceded their president to several
of the continental countries and have
found among the people a uniform and
almost unanimous pro-Boer sentiment
which they hope will be potent enough to
force action by the respective govern
ments And" added Mr.. Vessels. this
letter says they hope for more assistance
from the United States than from any of
thorn"
Mr.. Vessels in his interview also stat
ed that the reports of large numbers of
Beers migrating to America were i'm

surprised If there is rebellion of the
whole Of South Africa before the year
