money he would get for riding a Few

ieopardize his chances for renewal, ny
bringing him into undue prominence.
ION the other hand, the fact that he
is riding is as much as saying to the
English Jockey club, 1 can do as
please this year. Your edict does not
go into effect until next season..
The Earl of Clonmel. who is we'll
known turfman and rider of thorough
breds, and now in this city, was asked
what he thought about the Sloan case
He said:
Il think Sloan would have been much
wiser to have kept in the background,
at any rate for the present. and If he
behaves himself in quiet and unosten-
tatous manner for year, there is no
doubt he will be granted license
again. He brought this thing on him.
self by his manner Of living and his
barefaced effrontery. 1t was common
talk that Sloan was betting. and if his
application for a new license had not
been refused something worse would
have happened to him. 1 think he was
let off very lightly. and I do not think
anything more is meant than warning
Sloan must learn his place as jockey
if he wants to ride in England again,
and 1 am surprised that he has been
tolerated as long as he has
Foxhal Keene thinks, under the cir
cumstances, Sloan did no harm by rid
ing at Tanforan. AS his license is not
revoked, he considered his standing
good until he applies for new license
and is refused.
Col. Thomas Ochiltree expressed sur
prise that the Tanforan should have
permitted Sloan to ride, but at the same
time he does not think that their per-
mission would have any effect on the
case when it comes before the jockey
club.

WEATHER IS BAD
BoER RAIDERS IN CAPE COLONY
HAVE A PICNIC.
WHO WILL GET DECORATIONS.
Great Strife for Baubles at the Hands
of Queen-Had Better go on
Fighting.

New York. Dec. PA despatch from
London saws:
A light is thrown on the military situ-
press dispatches. Wires and railroads
alton in cape Colony by official and
press dispatches. Wires and railroads
have evidently been thrown out of gear
by the Boer invasion, but no important
towns have been occupied. and the IN
aaders are not in sufficient force to ac-
complish any useful results There Is
the worst possible weather not only for
military operations but also for rail-
road traffic. for the rains are incessant,
the rivers are at flood and fords are lm-
passible. One body Of riders is reported
in Seuerherg and another is moving to-
ward Preska. after cutting VIDE err
cult hut there is no evidence that all the
riders in the east and west number more
than c.00t if they are so many. The pur-
suit is difficult when they are ready to
break up into small squads whenever
they are menaced with attack. Lord
Kitchener needs sinews of iron and
nerves Of steel in order to endure the
incessant strain of campaign of this
kind but the force of his will and ener-
Ey is felt wherever he goes. Whatever
alarm there was in Cape Colony was dis
PEELED when it was known that he was
personally directing the operations at De
Aar and Nauwaport.
There IS a tendency to credit the Cape
Town report that squadron of yeo-
manry has been entrapped by the Beers
in Cape Caiony Lord Kitchener. in re-
porting yesterday the re-occupation of
Britstown by Thorneycroft's mounted
infantry, mentions that the retiring COM
mandoes We're being followed up. From
today's news il would seem that the
Clamorgan and Glouchester commandry
were detailed for the purpose, and after
a smart action they were captured.
Public interest is centered upon the
final stage Of Lord Roberts journey from
MADEIRA and Gibraltar and the honors
which will await him when he arrives
in England The rumors are rife that
alis name will head the new years list
of honors but a dukedom seems out OF
the question, and an earldom is more
probable with possibly the blue ribbon
of the order Of the Garter. The queen
has ribbon to spare since no successor
has been appointed to the Duke of Ar
Eyle. Buffers friends would ibe sorely
disappointed if his name does not appear
il the new years list, and White.
Hunter, French, Ian Hamilton, and Pole
Carew are regarded as probable winners
in the lottery of decorations.
Needless confusion has been caused by
the exchange Of formalities between
lord Hopetown and the premier of the
senior colony of Australia. Barton, who
by virtue of his leadership was the only
candidate fos prime minister of the New
Commonwealth. Barton is an eminent
colonial statesman Of the same class as
Sir Wilfrii Laurier. The federation has
been the dream of his political career
lAs an ideahst and enthusiast he ha!
not been interested in anything else anc
he has lived to see his dream carried Ou
as new principle of the empire. Hi
name can hardly be omitted from tn
new years list of honors.
