London, July 31.-With the capture Of
General Prinsloo and 5000 Beers in the
hills near Bethlehem the resistance to
the British in the Orange River Colony
is at an end, and a great force of soldiers
is released to Lord Roberts for use else
where in the field. There are still a few
commanders giving trouble west of
Pretoria, but with the additional force
now at his command Lord Roberts soon
can clear up that district. General De
Wet is reported to be hard pressed in the
position he has taken up south of the
Vaal, and troops are being sent to
strengthen the Gordon that is being
thrown around him.

THE EASTERN WAR.

London, July 31.-Sir Claude Mac
Donald's welcome dispatch, dated Pc
kin, July q, and received in cipher, is
accepted on all sides as dispelling any
doubts that might still have existed re-
garding the gaQuineness of the dis
patch. owing to an error in trans
mission the message fails to show the
number Of wounded. David Oliphant
and Warren We're two student interpret
ers.
The message from Minister Macdonald
was transmitted in a dispatch from Rear
Admiral Bruce at Tien Tsin, and reads
as follows:
Following message from Pekn:
British legation, Pekin, June 20 to
July 16 repeatedly attacked by Chinese
troops on all sides. Both rifle and ar
tillery fire. Since July 16 an armistice,
but a Gordon is strictly drawn on both
sides of the position. Chinese barri-
cades close to ours.
"'All women and children in the Brit
ish legation. Casualties to date, 62
killed, including Captain Strouts. A
number of wounded in hospital, includ-
ing Captain Halliday. Rest of legation
all well, except Oliphant and Warren,
killed, July q. Macdonald
The message fails to mention the other
legations and other matters of pressing
importance to know, but it should be
borne in mind that the British minister
may not be aware that all his previous
dispatches have been suppressed. He
may be under the impression that the
government is fully posted regarding all
recent occurrences.
Apart from this dispatch there is prac-
tically no fresh news, although a special
from Tien Tsin asserts that the British
and American forces are getting ready
to advance within AZ hours.
Messages from their legations in Pekin
We're also received yesterday by the
German government and the Japanese
government. The Russian admiral at
Tien Tsin has cabled his government
that the legations are safe, and relatives
of the Italian minister have heard from
him.
Ii Hung Chang remains at Shanghai.
He says that the great heat prevents
him continuing the journey to Pekin.
Sir Chin Chen, Chinese minister in
London, has been notified by telegraph
that Ii Hung Chang, conformity with
other viceroys and governors, has me-
moralized the throne to urge the i'm
mediate sending of the foreign repre-
sentatives under escort to Tien Tsin or
the restoration to them of free tele-
graphic communication with their gov

It was said of him that he would have
given up his kingship without regret if
he could do so honorably and II the deed
would benefit his country. He would
rather be a general in his own army than
the sovereign of the state. What he
cared for most We're his army, his horses
and the pleasures of the chase.
His chief, perhaps his only luxury, was
his stable. He kept 300 horses at the
Quirinal, and many others at the palaces
throughout the country, and he had a
stud farm in the north.
A proclamation from the queen regent
has arrived announcing the ascension
Of the new king and stating that parlia-
ment will be convoked after the funeral.
Several warships have started to meet
King Victor.

the flag was no longer the symbol of
sovereignty but the sign of friendship
Prominent Cubans spoke in a strain of
similar cordially.

Humbert I, King of Italy, was born at
Turin, March IA, 1874, and was the ED
est son of King Victor Emmanuel II Of
Italy and of Archduchess Adelaide OF
Austria.
King Humbert was considered pa
triot, but not a great statesman. He
would, no doubt, have proved great
soldier if he had placed his armies in the
field. But for statecraft he had neither
the inclination nor the genius.

SAVE THE TREES BY CHANGING THE PLAN
To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: The people Of New-York are beginning TO
realize the enormous sacrifices the construction Of
the underground lines the present plans will
entail The destruction of hundreds of beautiful
elm trees and the parking" along the entire
length Of the Boulevard; the obstruction and up
heaval Of the streets for an indefinite time--not
less than FIVE years and likely more than ten; the
dust dirt, mud and unhealthy conditions along the
lines that must be endured the inconvenient detr-
