When these reports were brought
to Mr.. Reeds attention he declined
to make any comment upon them

That Mr.. Reed is no more IN
sympathy now with the expansions

he was during his last term as Spe-

in the financial district, where he
has his Office, and among politicians.
1t is the opinion of the supporters OF

follow the example Ex-senator Hoar,

take the ground that the honOrS bes-

giving rise to adverse comment.

Military Methods in
South Africa.
Where Lord Roberts Super
iority Lies.

Recent dispatches from South
Africa set in vivid contrast the quail
tiles Of two noted generals and dis
cover that the supreme factor il mi
litary genius is the power quickly to
apprehend the lesson Of experience
and adapt means Of carrying on OPP
erations to existing conditions. 1t
turns cut that Gen. Methuen, tsho
has bad longer experience in wa.ta-
fare with the Beers than any general
now in the field, was completely
outwitted by De Wet when he was
left to guard ROberts's communica-
tiOns, drawn away from the line,
leaving isolated detachments to be
destroyed before he could return to
their support. Probably this will
be the last of Methuen. He has
been trusted with no offensive oper-
alton since Roberts arrived, and now
it seems that he cannot even guard
a railroad. The contrast is with the
4mckness of apprehension and adap
tation Of Roberts and Botha, the
trained and the native soldier, az
illustrated in theirlast battle. Or
to Roberts's arrival the Beers had
been impregnable by frontal defense
