The motion was overruled and cross
examination proceeded. Justice Hunt
said that before DR.. Tracey made the
proposition he considered him. man
OF pre-eminently good character. He
did not believe. Justice Hunt said. af-
ter this. that Tracey had appealed TO
him to get off the bench on account
of his health and said If he would ac-
cept the proposition he could go
abroad visit the Paris exposition and
have nothing to worry about. and thus
indefinitely prolong his life. Hunt
said he replied that he much appre.
ciated what the doctor had said about
getting off the bench, but he could not
see his way clear to accept the propo-
sition.

ed him if no change had come over his
mind Hunt said he replied that he
supposed their last conversation end
ed the matter. as he would not swerve
from his position ITO save my own
life or the lives of my children"
On Feb. 4th, DR.. Tracey showed
him what was apparently a copy OF a
telegram which informed him that
doctor someone had told the senate
committee in Washington, that the
justice would testify before the com
mittee that DR.. Tracey had offered
him bribe of 100000 in the Well
come case. The doctor then said:
You know never offered you a bribe
and was only joking in our conver-
sations concerning the Welcome
case"
Hunt said he replied that he wished
he could believe he was only Joking.
but could not put that construction on
the proposition. He did not, however,
believe that Tracey meant to actually
bribe him, but simply to lay the prop
osition before him. In answer to |
questions from members of the COM
mittee, Justice Hunt said he first re-
lated the fact of the propositions be-
Ing made to him, on the night of Aug.

CLARK CASE DEVELOPMENTS

London, Feb 15-Tla silence at the
front has been broken. After Gener-
al French's cavalry brigade, which
had been manouvering around Coles
berg. seized on Monday the crossing
of the Reit river at Dekils drift, the
sixth and seventh divisions crossed
and are now encamped on the east
of that river. The sixth division is
Kelly-Kenny's, which had. been rei
ported to be operating with French
and Gatacre for the clearance of the
country south of the Orange river
The seventh division is fuckers,
which has been believed to have been
at Modder river. These two divis-
ions, with French's cavalry brigade
and the new infantry made up of bat
talions lining the railway from De
Aar junction, are now cooperating
with General Methuen's army in a
great thanking movement on the Reit
below Kimberley. The Dutch had ap-
parently been misled, for they have
weakened their forces in quarter
where the attack will be made, and
strengthened them where the British
will remain on the defensive.
This great thanking movement has
been supported by movement of
mounted infantry from the Orange
river railway crossing to Ramah
Col Hanney, who commanded this |
column in an engagement with the
Beers on the hills, finally pushed his
Z force through 10 lts destination ~TuesSl
day with comparatively light loss,
his casualty list amounting to thirty
nine. This entire movement, with
the concentration of nearly all of
the British battalions outside of the
Natal, and the slender columns left
under Gatacre and Clements, hal
been brought about by scientific STRAIT
egy, under the rigorous operation of
the censorship, the utility of which
has been demonstrated at last. The
relief of Kimberley VIII evidently be
the first work of Lord Roberts, and
march on Bloemfontein the sequel
to it. The fears regarding a Boer at
tack ON Zululand are somewhat allay-
ed by special from Durham, which
says a column Of colonial scouts,
after forced march, arrived at Es-
howe in splendid fighting form. They
were pursued several times during
the march by the Beers, but succeeded
in repulsing them.
London, Feb 15-In the house of
commons today, during the course of
a reply to a question relative to the
probable Boer invasion of Zululandi
secretary of state for the colonies
Joseph Chamberlain. said the govern
ment had decided that if the native
territories were invaded by the Beers
the natives would be encouraged and
assisted in every way in defending
themselves.
London, Feb. 15-The official list of
the British casualties at Rensberg,
from Feb 10th, to Feb. 18th, shows.
Killed, four officers, seven men; woun-
ded, six officers, fourteen men; miss
ing, two officers, eight men. The Off
GERS killed were, Col Conyngham, of
the Worcester regiment; Major G..
