LONDON, Aug. l0.-The following re-

received from Lord Roberts:
Kitchener was informed yesterday
by an escaped British prisoner that
Dewet's wagons had crossed the Vaal.
Afterwards heard the sound Of guns,

position between Potchefstroom and

Kitchener is crossing the Vaal with
cavalry and mounted infantry.
"Hunter reports that he made 4, 140
prisoners in the Bethlehem Harrismith

Three guns and 1000 horses were cap

were destroyed.
"The garrison of Glands River, which,
I fear, has been captured, consisted of
about 800 bushmen and Rhodesians. l

seems that Delarey, learning of Ian
Hamilton's approach to Rustenb burg,

garrison before Darlington arrived.

Ii Hung Chang Speaks of the Deplorable
Conditions at Pekin.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-An impor-
tant dispatch has been received in dip
lomatic quarters in Washington, for
warded from the foreign Office of one
of the powers taking part in the inter-
national movement, and giving with
much detail conversation with Ii
Hung Chang in which he expresses his
despair over the condition of the Chi
nese government and fears that the
anti-foreign element has gained com
plete ascendancy at Pekin. The con-
versation was with the consul of the
power receiving the dispatch and as he
is an intimate friend Of long standing
with Earl Ii, the latter spoke unre-
servedly of the deplorable condition of
affairs among his own people.

United States Demands That At
tacks on Our Minister at
Pekin Cease.
Chinese Government Urged to Use
Its Power for Protection
of Legations.
Should Prove Its Sincerity by
Cooperating With the AL
lied Forces.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-The dispatch
sent to the Chinese government through
Minister WI is not in the form or ma
ture Of an ultimatum. 1t insists, how
ever, that the firing on the legations
cease, and that the imperial government
il it desire to show its friendliness,
shall co-ope, ate with the relieving COL
umn. In this matter our government
has proceeded on the assumption that
the imperial governments is willing to
do all it can to aid in relieving the min
listers, The text Of the dispatch is as
follows: :. ;siSis2zsB .eesr
'We are awaiting ourselves Of the op.
portunity offered by the imperial edict
Aug. 8, allowing to the foreign minis
tiers free communication with their re-.
spective governments, in cipher, and
have sent communication to Minister
Conger to which we await an answer.
"We are already advised by him, in
brief dispatch received Aug. 2, that
imperial troops are firing daily upon the
ministers in Pekin. We demand the
immediate cessation of hostile attacks
by imperial troops upon the legations,
and urge the exercise Of every power
and energy Of the imperial government
for the projection Of the legations and
all foreigners therein.
Certain Death to Leave Pekin.
'sWe are also advised by the same
dispatch from Minister Conger that, in
his opinion, for the foreign ministers to
leave Pekin as proposed IN tho edict of
Aug. Q would be certain death. In
view Of the fact that the imperial troops
are now firing upon the legations, and
in view Of the doubt expressed by the
imperial government in its edict of
Aug. as to Its power to restore order
and secure absolute safety in Pekin, it
is evident that this apprehension is well
founded, for if your government cannot
protect our minister in Pekin, it will
presumptively be unable to protect him
upon a journey from Pekin to the coast.
ave therefore urge upon the impe-
rial government that it shall adopt the
course suggested in the third clause Of
the letter Of the president to his
majesty the emperor of China, Of July
%, 1900, and enter into communication
with the relief expedition, SO that CO.
operation may be secured between them
for the liberation of the legations, the
protection Of foreigners and the resto-
ration of order. Such action on the
part of the imperial government would
be satisfactory demonstration Of its
friendliness and desire to attain these
ends

Carter Appeals to Supreme Court.

Washington, February 1.-The papers
in the case of Captain Carter were re-
ceived at the supreme court today. The
application for a writ of c~ertiorari will
have to be made Monday. The petition
Tor the writ is presented by Abraham
j. Rose. He says:
THE gravity and Importance of the
decisions against the plaintiff in error
below is apparent, when it is consid-
cred that the views expressed, if sound,
would prevent h inquiry upon habeas
corpus as to whether the prisoner a
been twice punished for the same Of
Tense, in direct conflict with the pro-
vision of the constitution and the de-
ciSiOnS of this court.
Moreover in all trials for o~ffenses
committed by persons in the military
service, no matter of what number of
offenses the accused may be found
guilty, if the conclusions of the Cir
cult court of appeals be correct. a gen.
eral sentence may be imposed without
specifying for which offense the pun
ishment was inflicted, virtually depriv-
ing the accused of knowing for which
offense he was punished by fine, or for
which offense by imprisonment, or for
which offense the other punishment
was inflicted. The decision of the cir
Guilt court of appeals invests a court
martial with power to override consti-
'tutional provision and takes from the
courts THE right to inquire by habeas
corpus whether constitutional rights
have been transcribed, thus putting
a person sentenced by a court-martiaI
beyond the pale Of constitutional pro-
visions and the protection of the
courts.
