OctODer luSt year. Inc farmers, Wuo
number so per cent of the population,
were already impoverished by the fam
inc of 1897. Expenditure of every kind
was stopped; hence the laboring class
and artisans have had no work. The
British government is relieving the sit
uation by gratuitously feeding the in
firm. the aged, the emaciated and the
children. The ablebodied are employ
ed on cash wages in building reser-
voirs and irrigation works, railway en-

100000 are now in daily receipt Of Of
fetal relief. Connected with the camps
are hospitals where those in the ex-
tremes of emaciation are nursed back
TO strength. The death rate is by far
the greatest in the native states where
government control is least. Here,
however, the government is assisting
by loans of money and of the services
of experienced officers. Already the
authorities have spent $47,000,0O0.
With the failure of crops in the fam
inc area there began flow of grain
from other parts of India and other
countries. From Burma alone there
was imported in ten months 427,000
tons of rice, worth S70,000,000. Mer-
chants have carried grain everywhere.

JOUBERTAS SKILLED TAcTIcIAN

London. Jan. ia German officer,
talking to me today on Boer tactics
especially those conducted by General
Joubert, said: "Joubert Is skilled
modern tactician. deriving the best of
his schemes from Won Moltke, of whom
he is an ardent admirer and with all of
whose writings he is thoroughly con-
versant.
THE attacking forces" he said,
around LadysmitlI, Mafeking and
Kimberley are placed according to Won
Moltke's most approved ideas, on three
sides, which is today reckoned the best
method and surest means of investing
with the smallest number of troops.
Those were the means adopted both at
Koniggrapz and Sedan. AS to German
officers they have done nothing in q
technical way, their efforts being en-
tirely confined to the artillery, which
has practically taken no hand in tao
tics.
"Joubert could give points to almost
any member of the Krieg Academic.
Were he in the German army today he
would stand in point of knowledge in
the highest position"

Jones, w. G. Achi, NJ. A. Gonsalves
and $. X. Kane constituted the meet
ing of the Council of State yesterday
afternoon.
Mr.. Robertson stated that the COM
mittee to investigate claims for prop
erty destroyed had done its work on
Friday afternoon and had it's report
ready for the meeting appointed but
failed to be held on Saturday. He was
ready with the report, and by direction
of the President he read It.
The President remarked that they
were all familiar with the change in
the situation caused by the Board Of
Health's fire getting beyond control.
He had not had an opportunity of con-
sulting the Board of Health, its mem
bers being busy all day inspecting
newly infected places. However, he
understood that Mr.. Robertson had
seen some members of the Board, who
held that the fire had confused the cir
cumstances of the case 1t was now i'm
possible to appraise the merchandise as
intended when the appropriation was
asked for. The President stated the
resolution Of the Executive Council to
ask President Mckinley to create a
Court of Claims. He suggested that the
report of the committee should be laid
on the table
Mr.. Robertson moved and 1t carried
that the report be laid on the table.
The meeting then adjourned
1t should be said that the report of
the committee agreed with the estimate
originally made, and recommended
that the bill appropriating $4,000 be
passed
