WILKINSON TURNING sCoLD.
War Expert Does Not Like General
Buffers Tactics.

LONDON Feb H.-Spencer Wilkinson's
article in the Morning Post to-day is al
most wholly devoted to criticism of Gen.
eral Buffers apparently mistaken tactics
In sending small forces to take positions
and reinforcing these by detail, as re-
vealed In the dispatch from Winston
Churchill. Mr.. Wilkinson admits, how
ever that Mr.. Churchills advices are too
incomplete to enable a correct idea to be
formed, since this dispatch breaks off in
the middle. leaving the battle unfinished.
The movement on the veldt away from
the railway in South Africa is becoming
increasingly difficult for large bodies of
troops. as the grass is burned up. General
French has to wagon forage for his horses.
and even the infantry finds the long
marches harder than before. as forage
for the transport animals must be carried.
This requires the formation of garrisoned
depots. The ordinary campaigning season
is over. and the sickly season for both
men and animals has set in. Technical
military writer's take these things into
consideration in forcasting events.

private letters that British rifles and am

to FOrecIOse Bonds.

to FOrecIOse Bonds.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Feb. 26-The
Times says this morning: George H.
Christian, of this city. formerly president
Of the Consolidated Milling Company, who
vigorously opposed the sale of the property
to the trust, and who finally pulled out of
the combination, owns and controls $765 900
worth of bonds of the Consolidated Com
pany and is in position to make trouble
for the company. When seen to-day he
stated that the interest on the bonds had
always been paid, but that the company
had failed to redeem s45.000 of bonds each
year, as was provided in the mortgage.
and that there is now due from this source
something like s27O,O0O. Mr.. Christian said
that he was in a position to foreclose on
these bonds, but he had decided not to
do so for the present. He also said that
most of the bonds on which the payments
are now due or are coming due are held
by stockholders in the company. The COM
pany has been unable to sell its securities
and these stockholders have been COM
PEELED to go down into their own pockets
to secure the funds necessary for the oper-
alton of the plants. He also said there was
no doubt but the appointment Of the re-
ceivers would hasten the reorganization
of the company, but he secuted the idea
that the company would be put on paying
basis"

BULLER's TASK DIFFICULT

Wounded Last Thursday and Friday
white Bombarding the Enemy.
LONDON. Feb. 81, 4:2O a. m.

LONDON. Feb. 81, 4:2O a. NJ
The Beers are assembling an army
near Bloemfontein, with which to
dispute the invasion of Lord Rob-
erts. This intelligence comes from
Pretoria, by way of Lourenzo Mar
ques. The commanders are de-
scribed as 'hastening from all
quarters of the two republics" No
estimate is made of their numbers,
but the withdrawal of the Beers
from most of the places where they
have been in contact with the Brit
ish, except the district near Lady
smith, may raise the resisting force
to 80, 900 men. This figure assumes
that the Beers have between 90, 900
and 20, 900 men in the field.
The gathering of this army
across the path of Lord Roberts
gives significance to General Cron-
ie's steadfast defense. He has en-
gagged the corps of Lord Roberts
for ten days now, and, whether he
is relieved or not, he has given
time for the dispersed Boer frac-
tions to get together and to prepare
positions to receive the British ad-
vance when Cronje is overcome and
Lord Roberts moves forward.
1t is difficult to conceive that the
Beers are strong enough to take
the offensive and to rescue Cronje
from his precarious situation.
The War Office had nothing after
midnight to indicate his collapse,
and he may hold out for few days.
The correspondents seem to have
no exact information respecting his
resources. Some say he has plenty
of food, but is short of ammunition.
Others assert that he abandoned
his food supplies, but kept abund-
ant supplies of cartridges.
General Butler, on Saturday,
faced the last and strongest posi-
tions of the Beers who bar his way
to Ladysmith. The strenuous
fighting indicates a battle between
armies, rather than rear guard ac-
tions protecting a retreat. On
Thursday and Friday he lost forty
three officers, killed and wounded,
representing, probably, total loss
of from 400 to 500.
General Whites guns worked on
Saturday upon the Boer positions,
and heliogram from Ladysmith
reported that the Beers were re-
treating, and that larger raticns
were being issued, in view of the
fact that relief seemed at hand.
Nothing has been heard from
Mafeking since Feb. II.

In Common Pleas.

Judge McCarty, in passing upon the
case of Hadley VS.. the City of Canton
decided for the plaintiff on the ground
that Hadley's was the lowest bid for
the Fulton street improvement by al
least $50. and that the stone the council
allowed Messrs. Corl & Dine to substi-
tute was inferior to that called for In
the specifications.
The finding Of the court means that
unless the case is appealed, the council
must give the contract to VIM. F. Had
ley, or be guilty of contempt of court.
The report Of the proceedings of the
council shows that the contract will be
given to Hadley without further con-
test.
FOUND FOR FOSTER.
Tuesday morning the case of Harry +.
Foster VS.. Walter Andrews was heard
before Judge McCarty and he recided
in favor Of the plaintiff. Andrews had
secured judgment against Foster

brought to set aside the judgment and
Judge McCarty ruled that the judgment

COUNTY PAYS THE FREIGHT.
How Railroads Are Said to Have
Bled Ashtabula For Trans
pOrtatiOn of HObOs.

Ashtabula county is beginning to
think that she is being made the VIC
tim of some sharp practice upon the
part of the railroads. She has sent to
the workhouse at Canton 4S prisoners
which have to be paid for at the rate OF
$S27.S6 a month and 1t is found they are
all hobos who have been brought In for
train jumping. The total cost to the
county for these prisoners will be
$,aSS.36 month counting all the costs
and transportation charges. Ashtabua
county is not the only county that the
railroads are using as an agency to rid
Itself Of the tramp nuisance. The rail-
roads are just sharp enough to see to It
that they do not have to pay the bills
for keeping their trains free frcm hobos.
