The alarm over the alleged defense
Qessness of the British isles increases.
The London Daily Telegraph publishes
2 dispatch from Portsmouth saying:
In the naval circles of Portssnouth
there is a strong impression that before
long the government will mobilize the
reserve squadron and commission sew
eral cruisers to be added to 1t. This
impression ~ borne out by the fact that
the naval officers who are unemployed
have been notified to hold themselves in
readiness to proceed on active service at
short notice. The work on ships in
hand ait Portsmouth is being pushed with
all speed. Only the most necessary Ne.
pairs on several cruisers, not refltting,
have been taken in hand. That the
channel squadron should at the last mo.
ment have been retained In British
waters instead of being sent direct TO
Gibraltar, Is also considered Mkely that
some important step may be taken. The
sqadron will remain for about 10 days at
Bantry.''

THEY MUST GO
AS PRIVATE
INDIVIDUALS

New York, Feb. 1.-Charles Pierce, con-
sui general For the Orange Free State.
says II believe that the man who went
to one of the armories here in Manhattan
! and said he had sent 800 men from Wash
ington to the Transvaal and that he pro-
posed to send 300 more from here, is a
fakir. No one has gone there from this
country, to my knowledge, unless he paid
his own way and left here as private in
dividual. know that some former army
officers and surgeons have gone, because
they have shown me their tickets, but
cannot tell you their names. Thesee are
the statements l make to all inquiries
and there are many of them:
First, any person wishing to go to
South Africa must do so as private in
davidual as there is no one in this coun-
try authorized to enlist or send men from
the United States to South Africa.
Second, no money has been appro-
priated for the purpose of sending men
to South Africa.
Third, any person desiring to go to
South Africa must do so at his own ex-
pense. The cost from New York to South
Africa is about 5000. 1t would be advis-
take an additional 5000 or $500 to provide
for any possible contingencies that might
arise after arriving there. 7

LADYSMITH
GARRISON IS
STILL HOPEFUL,

New York, Feb. 1.-London papers have
aittle news from South Africa to-day
and there lis not much comfort in that
little except that the beleaguered garri-
son of Ladysmith did not despair when
they learned of General Buffers second
reverse, but were still hopeful and deter
mined. The public does not believe that
General Buffers army is capable of re-
lievimg Ladysmith, so the talk OF fresh
movement does not Inspire here. It IL
not true. as has been reported that Gen.
eral Butler has withdrawn all his troops
south of the Tugeaa. His big guns were
still at Mount Alice Sunday with Lyttle-
toms brigade covering them.
According to the latest information the
retirement from Spionkop was inevitable.
When reinforcesnents and a few guns ar
rived during the night the position still
held by British forces was so combining
that the various regiments were 1uddDed
together and 1t was impossible in the
darkness TO make proper arrangements
to meet the storm of shell and bullets
that the daylight would bring upon them.
The campaign In Cape Colony does not
develop rapidly. The Beers at Coqens-
burg, Steyrtburg and Stormberg seem to
be content If they can keep the British
troops on the check while Cronje oper-
ates between Modder river and Kdmber-

The NeguS Is Friendly.

New York, Feb IA dispatch from
Zurich states that reports that Menelik
is arming are untrue and that the Negus
has rejected French and Russian counsel
to attack the English from the rear.
Menelik in November last received an
extraordinary ambassador sent to him
by England, with the greatest honor. He
held any number Of conferences with the
English ENJOYS, at which Herr Ilg, his
Swiss adviser, was present. The Negus
was highly delighted with the result of
the negotiations and loaded the emba ssy
with costly presents for the queen. Rus
sian and French diplomats are very dis
satisfied at the turn which things have
taken. English influence in Abyssinia is
increasing. Menelik will not visit Paris.
He takes the greatest possible interest
in the construction of the DjibOuri rail-
way.

troops are confident of ultimate success.
Great enthusiasm was aroused by the
queens message and Buffers speech ex-

and Clery's divisions and hoping they
would reach Ladysrith in a week.
The natives persist in asserting that
General Joubert was killed by shell out
