THE BOER WAR.
General Cronje Still Holds His
Laager.


London, Feb 27, 42O a. m.-The Bo-
ers are assembling an army near Bloem-
fontein with which to dispute invasion
of Lord Roberts.
This intelligence comes from Pretoria
by way of Lourenzo Marques. The
commandoes are describedas Fhastenlng
from all quarters of the tive, republics.
No estimate is made OF their numbers,
hut there is withdrawal of the Beers
from most OF the places where they have
been in contact with the British, 5000
having come, it is said, from around
Ladysrnth. This correspondent esti-
mates that the Beers have 10000 to TO-
900 men in the field. The gathering of
this army to resist Lord Roberts gives a
reason for steady resistance of Gen.
Cronie. He has engaged the corps of
Lord Roberts now for ten days, and
whether he is relieved or not he has
given time for dispersed Boer fractions
to get together and to prepare positions
to resist the British advance when
Cronje is overcome and Lord Roberts
NOV, s forward.
1t is difficult to conceive that the Beers
are strong enough to take the offensive
and to rescue Gen. Cronje from his pre-
carious position. The war Office had
nothing after midnight to indicate his
collapse, and he may hold out for few
days. Correspondents seem TO have no
exact information respecting his re-
sources. Some say he has plenty of food
but is short of ammunition. Others
assert that he abandoned his food sup
\ plies but kept abundant supplies of
I cartridges.
Gen. Butler on Saturday faced the
last and strongest positions of tie Beers
4 who barred his way to Ladysmith. The
Z strenuous fighting indicates battle be-
tween armies rather than the rear guard
actions protecting retreat Thursday
and Friday he lost 43 officers killed and
wounded representing probably total
of from 400 to 800 losses.
G6n. w mite guns worked on SaCur-
day upon the Boer positions, and hello
graph from Ladysmith, reported that
2 the Beers We're retreating and that large
rations were being issued in view of the
sfact that relief seemed at hand.
Nothing has been heard of Mafeking
q since Feb r. The movement on the
& veldt away from the railway is becoming
Increasingly difficult for large bodies of
troops as the grass is burned up. Gen.
SFrench has no wagon forage for his
horses and even the infantry find such
large marches harder than before as for
age for transport animals must be car
4 ried. This shows the necessity of gar
j risoned depots.
The ordinary campaign season is over
and the sick season for both men and
Il animals has set in, Technical military

WELMER AND KELLY INDICTED.

Prof. S. A. Weltmer and ]. II.
Kelly, the Nevada magnetic healers,
yesterday gave a bond of $1,000
each in Kansas City for their ap-
pearance in the United States dis
trict court there to answer the
charge OF having used the mails for
the purpose of fraud by their Sab
sent treatment" method.
The fraudulent business is none
other than magnetic healing, which
the two men claim to do, says to-
days Kansas City Times. In the in
dictment against Weltmer and
Kelly it is charged that the healers
gave what they call absent treat
ment, for which they received So a
month. They claimed in their ad-
vertisemeDt to cure any kind of ILL
ness known to man or woman" and
also, for a consideration of 81 a
month they offered to cure poverty.
Success in life" was another of
the things mentioned in their line,
and, so the indictments read, all
that was necessary for the patient
to do was to put himself in a passive
state for Is minutes twice each day
for a certain length of time.
The prosecution claims that the
healers have conducted a swindling
business, inasmuch as the patients
of the healers do not receive return
benefit for their money and that
the affair is merely a scheme to
seperate persons from their money.
the case is brought in the United
States court because the mails we're
used by the healers to carry on the
correspondence relating to their bus
ness. .-Sedalia (Mo.) Democrat.

Since the publication Of DIR. J..
Harraes' ad last week, many rumors
have found their way into circula-
ton, by the aid of the RumOres Ella
Personal Society. One is to the ef-
feet that the reason the Doctor will
not treat any new catarrh patients,
after this week, is because he gave
that part of the practice over for a
certain consideration to local spe'
-cialist. Another is to the effect
that he is about to leave the city,
hence he does not care for new ca
ses, as he wishes to get through
with the great number he has now
on hand.

Inheritance taxes planned to bear
