The Aged Congressman Lying Ill OF
Faciul ErIsypelas, at Washing

WASHINGTON, March 19.-The condi-

of Pennsylvania, is improved.
Congressman Grow lies i'll of facial
erysipelas at his hotel in this city. Con-
siderable alarm had been felt regarding
his condition, but his physicians an
nounce with much satisfaction that the
ailment is yielding to treatment and Mr..
Grows prospects for full recovery are
excellent. A report circulated that the
physician had given up hope, was with
out warrant or foundation.
Mr.. Grow was taken sick last Tues
day, and the trouble, erysipelas, devel-
oped very rapidly, His face is badly
swollen and infiamed, and the disease
threatened to get beyond control. His
attending physician, DR.. Sewers, became
alarmed, and called into consultation
DR.. w. w. Johnston. 1t was decided tc
test the virtue of antitoxin, and an in
lection of that remedy was made. There
was apparent improvement i'll th'o condl'
tion of the distinguished patient.
Another injection of antitoxin was adj
ministered, and the result was very
gratifying. DR.. Sewers announced thai

THE NATIVES ARMED
BY COL. BADEN-P0WELL,
bardcd Stadt, i'm Which Were

LoURENzo MARQUES, March ia
dispatch from Mafeking, dated Satur'
day, March 10, said:
"The garrison is holding its own. We
have heard numerous rumors that the
siege will be raised, but so far that is
not the case. We are pegging along pa
tiently on quarter rations, supplemented
by the occasional capture of cattle.
''Our home made gun erTatically bonn
barls the Boer trenches. Horrible
storiesare current that the Beers are in
flicting nameless tortures upon captured
runners. These may not be true, but
they are tending to inflame native pas
sions to such an extent that it may soon
be impossible to hold the natives in
check.
"Owing to the Beers having deliber-
ately bombarded the native stadt, which
is full of women and children, Colonel
Baden Powell has armed the natives,
but he has only allowed thom to act on
the defensive, although they have clam
ored to beallowed to go ont and attack at
the point Of the assegai.
"They will be prevented as long as
possible from infiicting reprisals on the
Beers"

While 81, 100000 will be added to New

While government estimates OF wheat

corn advanced 2R cents. Jealous et-
forts to excite new confidence i'll higher
prices for iron have not had the desired
effect
While various markets are called
stronger, not a quotation has advanced,
but tank plates at Pittsburg are shade
lowerat 2 cents. Eastern grey forge has
sold there in considerable quantity at
s2O.5O, against S2l 90 for local forge, and
southern No. / foundry is selling here
at 1922. rs, against $23.5 80 for northern No.

at Valley mills, though small lots are
obtainable at Pittsburg at S24.50. Many
large contracts are mentioned as Ill pros
