ceedings Against John Shelton Williams
to Prevent Consolidation.
(By The Associated Press

Norfolk Va, March 21.-Judge Waddili

clerk of the court, and Hon. R. T. Thorpe,
special masters to take evidence in the
injunction proceedings of Thomas F.
Ryan, Of New York, against John Skel-
ton Williams, ct ais.
1t will be remembered that Judge Wad-
dill some time since refused to restrain
the defendants from proceeding with the
consolidation of other roads with the
Seaboard Air Line system, and the testi-
mony to be taken by the special masters,
who will require about sixty days to
complete their work, and are empowered
to compel attendance of witnesses and
the production of books, papers, ETC.,
will be used in rendering a final decision
upon the supplemental and amended bill
of the plaintiff which disputes the legality
of the consolidation.

serving on the active list in the army.
General Lee is over GA and General
Wheeler viii be GA in September next.
The last named, therefore, is the only
one eligible for appointment to the reg
ular army. But the desire of the Presi-
dent is understood to be to honor both
of the distinguished volunteer officers in
the same way. With the consent of
Congress, it would be possible to appoint
them brigadier generals on the retired
list. Such action would enable them to
relinquish their present duties and in
sure their future welfare.
There is reason to believe that General
Wheeler would be willing to forego his
rights to a seat in Congress under ex-
listing conditions, providing he was as
sured of an appointment to the regular
army. AS an officer on the retired list
there would be no question as to his
eligibility to seat in the National Legis-
lature in case his former constituents de-
sire to elect him.

GENERAL wHEELERs CASE DEFERRED
Anxiety to Put Lee and Wheeler on Retired
List as Brigadiers
(By the Associated Press }

Washington, March 21.-General Wheel
er called at the War Department this
morning and officially reported his re-
turn from the Philippines to Secretary
Root in accordance with the orders of the
Department 1t was. expected that the
question of General Wheeler's future mil
itary status would be determined at this
meeting. Secretary Root was so busy,
however, with other important questions
which had accumulated during his ab-
sence from the city, that it was conclu-
ded best to defer the consideration OF
Gene~al Wheeler's case to a more oppor-
tune time. The matter will probably be
settled within few days. Meanwhile the
resignation of General Wheeler from
the volunteer army will be held in abey-
ance and the question as to General
Wheeler's eligibility to a seat in Con-
gress will be held up pending the set
tlement of his military status.
There is a strong desire to put the
names of General Wheeler and General
Lee on the retired list of the army with
the rank of brigadier general but the
execution of this plan requires special
legislation by Congress. Existing law
prohibits a man Ga years of age from

DENIED BY THE WAR DEPARTMENT.
That the Campaign in the Philippines Costs
1000 Men Every Month.
(By The Associated Press. }

Washington, March 21.-The War De-
partment officials deny recently published
statements that General Otis campaign
is costing upwards of 1000 men every
month According to the official records,
since the American occupation of the
Philippines, June 1st, 1898, up to Feb
ruary 18th, 1900, the date of the last Off
cial compilation, the actual mortality in
the army in the Philippines was SO officers
and 1,460 men, a total of 1926 or at the
rate of "A deaths a month.
More details are contained in the re-
port of Colonel Woodruff, chief surgeon
of the Philippine army. His report, how
ever does not extend beyond the end of
the last calendar year. 1t shows that
from the time American troops landed in
Manila up to December 1st, 1900, the total
number of deaths were So officers and
263 men. Of this number AZ officers and
$40 men died of violence and 16 officers
and 693 men died of disease. Most of the
deaths by violence occurred in battle.
There were, however, 1877 deaths from
violence outside of actual hoStilities. 1t
is a singular fact that more than one-half
of the latter class of deaths were caused
by drowning. The total of wounded with
out fatal results during the period COW
cred by the report was 1867.

GOES TO RELIEVE CAPTAIN LEARY.
Commander Seaton Schroeder is Selected.
Great Future For Guam.
(By The Associated Press.)


Washington, March 21-Lieutenant
Commander Seaton Schroeder, at present
Secretary of the Naval Inspection Board,
has been selected to succeed Captain
Leary as Naval Governor of the Island
of Guam. Commander Schroeder had ap-
piled for and been promised the governor
ship of the Island of Tutuila, but the ad-
ministraton of the affairs of Guam is be-
lieved to be more desirable, and many
of the difficulties in the establishment of
government have already been removed
through the energy of Captain Leary.
The Navy Department expects a great
future for Guam in a commercial way.
Beside being a naval station, all the Pa
cifc army transports are expected here
after to touch at the island to and from
Manila, and the projected Pacific cable
will have a station there; a mercantile
coaling station, it is thought will soon
he established, and this Eill attract
merchant vessels SO that Guam will be-
come a regular port of call for the ship
ping in the Eastern seas.
Commander Schroeder expects to sail
on the Solace from San Francisco for
Guam about the middle of May and will
relieve Captain Leary before July next.
1t is stated at the Navy Department that
Captain Leary is coming home at his own
request, and his action is also in con-
formity with the policy the department
has laid down. to make frequent changes
in the command of these naval stations
in the interest of the health and spirit OF
the officers.

THE BRITISH ARE ACTIVE
Dispensing Beers in the Southern Part
of the Free State.
SIGNIFICANCE OF MErHUEN'S MOVEMENTS
They Are Believed to be the Prelude 10 the
Marching of 10000 Men Eastward
From Fourteen Streams Into
the Transyaal.
(By The Associated Press.)

London, March 22.-(4:12 a. M
Several kilograms have passed be-
tween President Kruger and the Brit
ish Government, in addition to the
Salisbury-Kruger correspondence al
ready published. The Foreign Office
received dispatch from Pretoria yes
terday. The contents OF these COM
munications cannot yet be obtained.
So far as the military situation is
concerned there is practically no
change. Lord Roberts is quickly
making preparations for the next
move. As necessary to a beginning,
Generals Gatacre and Brabant are
swiftly moving from point to point
in the Southern districts of the Free
State, dispensing or accepting the sur
render of any remaining Beers, thus
ensuring the safety of Lord Roberts
communications before starting to-
ward Pretoria.
A Correspondent of the Daily News
at Springfontein describing these
movements, says:
General Gatacre is sweeping
through the country like a cyclone,
with flying columns in all directions.
His swiftness and strategy have prov
ed of inestimable value to Lord
Roberts"
The rebuilding of the railway bridge
at Norvals Pont will occupy two
months. The temporary bridge will
be completed in about ten days. Mean
while supplies are transported in an
aerial tramway across the gap. These
works necessarily delay the providing
of supplies for the advance.
Lord Methuen's movements north
of Kimberley are believed to be a
prelude to the gathering of column
of twenty thousand men with Kimber-
ley as a base to strike eastward from
Fourteen Streams into the Transvaal.
The long and anXiously awaited
news of the relief of Mafelzing has not
yet been received.
Mr.. Schreiner, the Cape Premier,
has granted the request of the mayor
of Cape Town that public holiday
be proclaimed throughout the colony
on the relief of Mafeking.

RELIEF OF MAFEXING STILL IN DOUBT
Defence of Free State Apparently Abandoned
by Transvaalers.
(By The Associated Press.)

London. March 21.-At Warrentown,
north of Kimberley, desultory fighting oc-
Cured all Sunday, resulting in the retreat
of the Beers towards Christiana, under
she'll fire. The progress of this column
towards Mafeking has either almost
ceased or is forbidden to be mentioned in
dispatches. Mafeking apparently still
awaits relief.
The Pretoria account of the skirmish
at Fourteen Streams, March 18th, says
that Boer command was preparing to
destroy railroad bridge and that the
engagement lasted half an hour with
the result that one burgher was slight
ly wounded.
The same dispatch announces the ar
rival at the Transvaal capital of Gen
eral Schalkburger, from Natal.
The second edition of the Times today
publishes dispatch from Bloemfon
tein, dated Monday, March 10Th, which
says:
''The blowing up of bridges by the Beers
is an evident sign that the Transvaalers
intend to abandon the defence of the
Free State.'
All is quiet in the south and west. A
corps of young Beers from the farms
/ surrounding BlOemlOnIeln, unueF du IIIl~
perial officer, has been detailed for police
work and to prevent the further looting
of abandoned farms by the Kaffirs.
| 1t is said that when President Kruger
| left Rloemfontein after his recent visit
there President Steyns parting remark
was: mind the British do not catch
you, or you will get better quarters at
st. Helena than L.
Rudyard Kipling has gone to Bloemfon-
tein.
The Beers at Aliwal North are reported
to be still holding a position in the Big
hills on the Free State side.
From a Pretoria dispatch it appears
some misunderstanding regarding Lord
Salisbury's reply to Americas offer of
mediation exists there. 1t had been
quoted to the effect that Lord Salisbury
| said he could accept the Intervention of
no other power, which leads to the belief
that the American representations would
be listened to in the final settlement.
