No Report From Lord Roberts.

LONDON, April l.-But that the war
Office has issued no news from Lord
Roberts during the last three days,
there would be little disposition to place
any credence in the Boer reports of an

however, leaves the public in nervous
condition, fearing everything.
Dispatches from Pretoria as late as
Monday did not mention any further
Boer victory. On the contrary, they
said all the commanders We're quiet,

failed to promptly report mischances as
well as successes, or to allow the news

people gathered at the dam and power
house station, north of this city, to wit
ness the ruins of the plant, which cost
this city 81, 100000 few years ago The
waters of the Colorado river were still
plunging and foaming around the
wreck, eating away the big pile of gran
lite, which once formed the dam, as
though it was nothing more than chalk
rock. So fierce was the current that
great boulders We're carried half mile
from the dam, being rolled, over and
over by the turbulent tide. The power
house, which succulnbed to the terrific
wash OF the water at 2 a. M, lies mass
OF wreckage on the edge of the river.
Tbe situation i'll the city is most seri-
ious. The wreckage of the plant means
that it will take several weeks to secure
even temporary water and light sys-
tenn, if it can be made possible even
then. In the meantime the city will be
in bad sanitary condition. All the
hotels, private residences, stores and the
like are without water and there is no
fire protection. Churches were unable
to hold services last night for want of
light and all public meetings We're
abandoned
Reports from the neighboring country
are to the effect that everything is
