LONDON, March 1.-The wal office has

General Butler:
8 a m.--Finding that the passage OF
L~angewicht Spruit was commanded by
strong entertainments, I accommodated
for another passage Of the Tugela. One

Colonel Sandbach, Royal Engineers, on

During all this time, the troops had
been scattered, crouching under hastily
constructed small stone shelters and ex.
posed to a CALLING shell and rifle fire,
and throughout they maintained the
most excellent spirits. Tuesday, Cen
eral Barton with two battalions Of the
Sixth brigade and the Dublin Fusiliers,
crept about a mile and a half down the
banks Of the river, and assembled an
almost perpendicular cliff Of about 500
feet, assaulted and carried the top Of

scattered the enemy in all directions.
There seems to be still a considerable
body Of them left On and under Bull

are net large. They certainly are much
less than they would have been were it
not for the admirable manner in which

ENTHUSIASM CHECKED.

News From Butler Offsets the Joy OF
Roberts achievements.
LONDON, March 1.-72:1O p. m.-Gen.
eral Buffers account of the tremendous
resistance he is encountering in his ef-
forts to reach Ladysmith has brought
public interest, with a sharp turn, from
%complacent contemplation Of General
Roberts victory to a realization Of seri-
GUS conditions still existing in Natal.
Though General Buffers lengthy dis.
patch is construed as a victory bravely
won, the commander of the forces in
Natal has 50 often reported similar VIC
tories without achieving his main oh.
jective that the public has learned to
contain it's jubilation until Ladysmith
is actually relieved, while the long list
Of casualties invariably following any
apparent gain by Gen. Butler in always
awaited with dread and anxiety, which
temporarily rob his partial success of it's
acclaim. However, it is the generally
accepted belief that General Butler is
determined to reach General White this
time, and though the stages are disap.
pointingly slow, the nation confidently
awaits news Of the relief Of those 5000
besieged troops. General Buffers re.
port shows there is urgent need Of Lord
Roberts exerting every effort to still
further draw off the Beers from Natal
to the Free State. That he will do SO,
and quite likely is already doing SO, by
marching on Bloemfontein, is regarded
as almost certain by the military critics
here.
With the 800 additional Beers reported
prisoners at Kimberley, it seems that
the number Of men captured by Lord
Roberts nearly reaches 5000.

NO SUBSTITUTE
Attempt to Displace Amended
Ways and Means Committee
Measure
Defeated by a Vote Of l72 to 1862.
Move to RecOmmit Also Voted
Down.
In the End Only a Few Repub.
leans Vote With the Dem.
Ocrats.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The last day
Of the struggle over the Puerto Rice
tariff bill in the house opened at II
o'clock, with almost every member In
his seat and a large attendance in the
galleries. The leaders on both sides
were actively engaged in rallying their
forces and making computations upon
the final vote. Immediately after the
reading Of the journal, the clerk began
reading the bill for amendment under
the five minute rule.
When Section 3 was read, Mr.. Payne,
chairman Of the ways and means com.
mittee, offered n substitute for that sec.
ton, making the rate Of duty Is pei
cent Of the duties which are required to
be levied, collected and paid upon like
articles Of merchandise imported from
foreign countries. 7
Mr.. Berry (Ky.) said the amendment
proposed petty instead of grand larceny
Of the people Of Porto Rico. He ridi.
culed the laborious debate over the ques.
ton Of what the Quilted States" meant
under the Constitution. II this country
had been called "Columbia" instead Of
the Omitted States,' 1900 pages OF the
Congressional Record could have been
eliminated. No one would have had the
hardihood to contend then that the Con-
stitution did not extend over every foot
Of our soil.
The bill was opposed in short speeches
by Mr.. De Almond (Mo.), Mr.. Mtyger.
aid (Mass.), and Mr.. Otey (va.), and
defended by Mr.. Grow (Pa.), Mr.. Graf
(Ills.), Mr.. Cromwell (O.), who had
hitherto opposed the measure, and Mr.,
Grosvenor (O.). The Payne amend.
ment was adopted without division.
Mr.. Payne offered the additional Sec
ton agreed upon at the conference OF
Republicans on Monday night as fol-
lows:
"This act shall be taken and held tt
be provisional in its purpose and in.
tended to meet n pressing, present need
for revenue for the island Of Puerto
Rico, and shall not continue in force
after March |, 1902"
MI. Powers (Vt.), Mr.. Sibley (Pa.),
Mr.. Tompkins IN. ", and Mr.. Hep
burn (Ia.) spoke in behalf Of the bill.
Mr.. Payne's amendment was agreed
to without division.
Mr.. Payne offered a preamble to the
bill reciting the serious condition Of af.
fairs in the island and 1t was adopted
on u rising vote Of 1853 yeas to 151 nays.
At 3 o'clock, Mr.. Mccall (Mass.) on
behalf of the minority offered as a sub.
stitute the bill for free trade with Porto
Rico, originally introduced by Mr..
Payne and the yeas and nays were or.
dered.
The substitute was defeated, 100 yea.
to 175 nays.
The Republicans who voted with the
Democrats for the adoption Of the sub.
stitute were Heatwole (Minn.), Little.
field (Me.),' Lorimer (Ills.), Mccall
Mass J, Crumpacker (Tnd.). The Dem.
ocrats who voted with the Republicans
against the substitute were Davey and
Meyer (La.), Sibley (Pa.), and Devries
(Cal.).
A motion was then made to recommit
the Porto Rlcan bill to the ways and
means committee, but 1t was lost, 49,
to 172.
