~. = A pitched battle is imminent be-
tween the British under Gen. Clements,
who has been reinforced, and the Beers
under Gen. Delarri
LONDON, Dec. 2O-Tne war office last
evening could give no information con-
eerning the reported Boer invasion of
Cape Colony. The officials expressed the
opinion, however, that the newspaper ac-
counts were exaggerated and probably
the troops that had been employed in
chasing Gen. De Wet will be diverted
to deal with the invaders. Having re-
gard to the customary methods of the
war office this can be only interpreted
as confirming the reports Lord Kit
chener in the meantime keeps a tight
rein over the news. which increases the
public disquiet. There is persistent
rumor that he has demanded heavy re-
Inducements.
TROUBLE IN CAPE COLONY.
According to the Daily Mail private
telegrams received in London yesterday
depict the situation in Cape Colony as
somewhat ominous. 1t seems that the
invading Beers are receiving considera-
BILE assistance from the local Dutch and
the troops at the disposal of the British
authorities are not sufficient to cope
with any serious spread of the military
operations.
1t is believed that the government if
awakened to the seriousness of the sit
uation will make earnest efforts to pro-
vide Kitchener with soldiers and mules.
The British losses at Nooitgedacht, ao-
cording to the official accounts, were
IS killed and wounded, with A missing
and still unaccounted for.
1t was reported that Gen. Knox has
been forced to abandon the pursuit Of
Gen. Dewet, owing to the situation
created in Cape Colony by the Beers
crossing the Orange river. 1t is said
that 5000 Republicans have entered Cape
Colony and similar number have
reached Philipstown The report adds
that De Wet with about 4,500 men, is
northeast of Ladybrand and that an at
tack on Winburg is momentarily ex
pected.

spects an ideal type of a dairy bull. He

MRs. CHAMPION Ar ALFRED.

Biddeford, August 30-Mrs George
Champion arrived in town Wednesday
from Boston to see her husbands coun-
sell q, 5. Hamilton and Judge b. f.
Cleaves, and also to pay a visit to her
husband at Alfred jail
Mrs. Champion consultation with the
attorneys lasted nearly two hours, and
she then retired to her room and remained
there the rest of the day.
This morning, Mr.. Hamilton accom-
panied her to Alfred, driving up In his
carriage. Her visit to her husband was
an entire surprise TO him, as he had no
1ntlmat1on OF her coming.
Whatever may have been Champion's
feelings upon seeing his wife, it was
quite evident from her demeanor that
she looked forward to the meeting with
him with a good deal of pleasure. Since
they parted in Boston after Champion S
arrest, she has remained at the mission
home in Boston and has not visited her
husband, principally because she had no
money to pay her fare. Her feeling for
him, however, has apparently not
changed, and she is quoted by her counsel
as believing earnestly and sincerely in
his innocence.
No man who had committed such a
crime could have come to me asI he did
the day after the MURDER ,; she said, land
slept as calmly and quietly as a child, I
simply know that he could not have done
it.

Evacuation of Pekin Would Be
Regarded Sign Weakness.

London, August $3.50 a. m.-The
Russo-American surprise" as 1t is
called, is the chief feature of the morn
ing papers. While Russia's part in the
proposal is regarded with considerable
suspicion, it is generally recognized that
the light OF the Empress DOwager and
the Emperor render the situation ex-
tremely difficult and, therefore, that 1t
might be wise 90 adopt the Russo
\ nerlcan programme as the best solu-
6Ion of the problem.
at the same tine a very strong feel
ing Is displayed in favor OF a more vigor-
Gus line Of policy. The Daily Graphic
says:
1.-The United States are almost morbid
" anxious to wash their hands Of the
Chinese embarrassment. This has long
been apparent. s But it is rather sur
prising to hear that their anxiety is
shared by Russia. With the possible ex-
ception of Germany, there is probably not
another power that would seriously OBJ
Jet to the evacuation of Pekin."
The Daily Mall observes:
Probably Russia, with the assistance
of the United States and France, hopes
TO dictate to other powers a far eastern
policy ensuring the accomplishment Of
Russian designs, which would be great
" facilitated by the acceptance Of Ii
Hung Chang as plsnipotsntiary. The
powers should refuse to accept any in
termediary or to eyacute Pekin, which
would only be interpreted as a sign Of
weakness. -
The Daily Express and the Daily
Chronicle protest against placing any
reliance on the professions OF LII Hung
Chang OF of the Chinese authorities.
According to the Pekin correspondent
OF the Daily Nail wiring August 10,
when, on the approach Of the allies, the
Tsung Ii Yamen asked an interview
with the besieged, four of the ministers
! opposed and seven favored complying
with the request. An appointment was
! made for the next day, put the Chimes
ministers did not come.
During the siege every scrap Of metal
including candlesticks and ornament.
was converted into ammunition. A CUR
wa made from a fire extinguisher. Their
q thousand sand bags were made OF Sill
brocade material valued at five dollar
per bag.
Sir Claude Mcdonald, the British min
lister, sent message recommending tn

From Che Foo it is announced tha'
the telegraph offices are overwhelmed
