LORD ROBERTS PROMISES.
Nous Will BE Coming In
Plenty.

London, Feb. 13, AIS a.. m.-Lord
Roberts has gathered $4,000 men, with
whom, according to the best military
orinoin in London, he: purposes turn
ing the left of the Magersfontein lines
near Jacobsdal, entering the Free
State, compelling Gen. Cronje to raise
the seige of Kimberly, and thus max
ing his first step toward Bloemfontein.
Monday Lord Roberts announced the
appointment Of Gen. Sir Henry Col
Vile, hitherto commander of the
guards brigade, to the command OF
the ninth division, which. is being
formed, and will consist probably to a
great extent of colonial troops. Gen.
Cclville will be succeeded by Gen.
Reginald Pole-Carew.
Lord Roberts tells the correspond
ents that when he gets down to bust
ness they shall have ample !opportuni-
tie. to send news. His chief press CEN
snr yesterday issued new rules. and in
| future all written communications are
to GO unchecked. Only kilograms will
be censored. For the next few days
little news is likely to get through,
but later there will be more freedom.
| thus says the censor, and the last
clause may be interpreted to mean
that something is about to happen.
The war office is making preparations
to continue the stream of troops for
South Africa. Four large steamers
have been chartered.
Japan agrees to let the Armstrong;
transfer to England four naval quick
| firers that were built for her, consent
ing to wait for the execution of her
own order until the hostilties in South
| Africa are over. Several European
powers, by similar consents as to guns
being constructed by Vickers Son and
Maxim, enable England to secure loo
MaAims.
Two thousand men are constantly
employed at Woolwich arsenal, and
al. the gun and ammunition factories
are working night and day to execute
government orders. The weekly out
put of four firms is four million
rounds.

A QUIET DAY AT FRANKFORT.
The Republican Members of the LeE'
islature Meet and So Inform
Gov. Taylor.

Frankfort, Ky, Feb. 14.-Monday
was another day of unbroken calm III
Frankfort. The republican members
of the legislature met at noon and. at
ter appointing committees to inform
Gov. Taylor that, pursuant to the
terms of his proclamation adjourninS
the legislature at London and calling
it to Frankfort, they had come to this
city, and were prepared to transact
such business as might come before
them. The governor accepted the mes
sage. and both houses adjourned until
Tuesday. There were nine members
in the senate and 29 in the house.
The committee which was expected
| to come from the democratic members
at Louisville to report whether it is
| safe for them to come TO Frankfort
| lid not put in an appearance during
the day.
The republican leaders say that the
| expect nothing new to t%ranspire u.

rendered his decision on Wedhs. in II
At one time Monday Gov. '7ayr" d
| cided to order away all of the soldiers
now here, with the exception Of a few
for a personal bodyguard. He sent
| for Col. Williams, and gave the orders
for the moving of the troops, but sew
eral of his friends urged SO strongly
| that the soldiers be permitted TO re-
main that Gov. Taylor changed his in
tention, and said that for the present,
at least, he would not have any more
of them returned to their homes.

CHARGED WITH DEFAULTING.
Love of Country Brings an Alleged
Embezzlcr Back Within the
Danger Line.

San Francisco. Feb. 13.-Frederick
S. Kelly, formerly an employe of a
prominent insurance company in Oma-
la, Neb., but who left that city about
two years ago when d~efalcations,
amounting to about $4,000, were about
to be discovered, was arrested by de-
tectives in this city Saturday. The
arrest was kept a secret until Monday.
when it was learned that Kelly and
his young wife, formerly of Oakland,
Cal, had left for Chicago in the Gus
tody of detectives.
Since his departure from Omaha,
Kelly has travelled much to avoid de-
tectives, and held q good position in
Manila; but his love for his w coun-
try got the better of him and he re-
turned. Two months ago he married
the daughter of a prominent printer.
Kelly's relatives are wealthy and
prominent people of Lincoln, Neb.

guaranteed by that amendment. These
Offices were creations of the state of
kentucky, and the right to hold them
can not be construed into one of the
rights designated in the amendment
referred to.
Ridiculed Position of Plaintiffs.
In conclusion, he ridiculed the posi-
ton of the plaintiffs, who, while still
in the process of a~scertaining whether
or not they had been elected, proposec
to throw aside the provisions OF the
state law and ask the power OF this
court on their behalf.
Gravity of the Situation Urged.
Mr.. A. E. Wilson, for the plaintiffs,
followed in a brief argument in which
he took much time in reading author1-
ties on tie subject of the jurisdiction
OF Il court under the fourteenth amend
ment to the United States constitution.
He spoke feelingly of the gravity OF
the situation in Kentucky. He charac-
terized this court as one free. from the
excitement and p~artisanship nat OK
listed in Kentucky. These plaintiffs, he
said, have come here as a last resort
so that the people of Kentucky shall
have the right recognized by the con-
stitution of Kentucky before they take
the law into their W hands to make
a new constitution.
Against Jurisdiction.
Nj. J. A. Scott, for the defendants,
made the point that the court could
no. interfere to prevent the future ac-
ton of the board of contest. He said
the only real attack which had been
mace upon the Goebel law was that 1t
provided that all the commissioners
throughout the state should be partisan
democrats. He ridiculed the idea Ut
making this the ground of lnterfer-
eEce of this court and insisted that the
right to hold Office was not one OF the
rights defined in the fourteenth amend
menr of the constitution. He went'en
t. argue against the jurisdiction of
this court, saying he thought the rule
to he followed should rather be miser-
" tEan c]ovetous in taking jurisdiction.
~ inc
Gov. Bradley, in his closing argu-
ment, insisted that the contest board,
being made into a court, was repu5-
rant to the constitution of Kentucky,
which specifies what courts shall he
created. The attempt to confer judi
c.ul authority on this board deprived
these plaintiffs of their rights and
gav,. this court jurisdiction. In reply
to d question by the court, Mr.. Brad
lev said he did not claim that these OF
fees were property. He again called
attention to the fact that the board
OF contest had already expressed opin'
ions concerning their future action. lie
| closed by the declaration that Their
was no remedy in the state courts and
| that equity has jurisdiction where
| common law fails and ever where
| equity can better redress the injury
| than can the common law.
| VIII Announce Decision Wednesday
After the conclusion of the argu
mcnts Judge Taft advised the counse
| that he would announce his decision
| so far as the court had jurisdiction in
| tie cases concerned, at 2 p. ID. u
| Wednesday next.

ALL BRITAIN WAITING.
Anxious to Learn Which Side Will

Anxious to Learn Which Side Will
Strike First-COnfdent Feeling.
London, Feb. 13.-Great Britain re.
mains awaiting %anxiously to Learn
which side will succeed in striking
first. The feeling, however, is muck
more confident than at the opening OF
last week, in consequence of the
widespread belief that the hands Of
Field Marshal Roberts and Gen. Hitch.
ener are now firmly gripped at ths
helm, and hat whatever happens, the
campaign will now be waged under
careful, comprehensive plans, in which
all the forces will cooperate. Both
sides seem to be collecting themselves
Tor attack.
Poer Aggrcssfveness.
The left horn of the Boer army is
creeping through Zululand, and
threatening the British right, and at
Chievcley Gen. Joubert, with 5000
men, is reported to be e~ndeavoring to
attack Gen. Butler. Boer aggressive
ness has already developed, and has
met with a repulse at Rensberg, while
from, what now becomes the most inn
portant point of the compaign, the
Modder river, comes the news of cease.
less activity and redoubled vigilance.
The Long-Yearned-For Opportunity.
These reports create hopefulness in
Great Britain, rather than anxiety, for
the impression exists that the Boer
aggressiyeness will give the British
troops their long-yearned-for oppor-
tnnity, and tend greatly to assist the
broad plan of campaign which Lord
| Roberts may shortly be expected to
| set in motion at the Modder river.
In the meanwhile, Ladysmith must
| await the exigencies attendant upon
the more important military move
ments now on foot. 1t is said positive
" that Gen. MacDonald's withdrawal
! from Koodoosberg was ordered by
Ten. Methuen, under Lord Roberts
instructions.

WILL THE ENGLISH NEvERLEARN:
They Have Had Plenty of Lessons.
Hut Somehow They Don't Profit

London, Feb. 13.-Frank Harris, for.
mer editor of the Saturday Keview, in
{; pamphlet published, reiterates the
view which the st. James Gazette has
been insisting on, that Quality. and
not quantity. is what England needs
to beat the Beers" and that England
always fails 10 learn by experience
He adds:
'The battle of Saratoga should havc
taught every E%nglishman the true
theory CT war. There the American
militia not only defeated the English
troops. but forced them to an ig-
nominious surrender, and, mark it,
these same English troops were the
best soldiers of their time. Or take
a still clearer case. Wellington's vet
Grams were beaten at New Orleans by
half their number of raw militia. But
even New Orleans taught the English
nothing"
