MIR. Bryan's Advice.

At the close Of the reception in his
honor, given by the Democratic State
COMMITTEES in Fansusl Hall, in Boston,
Tuesday afternoon, VIM. J. Bryan was
shown the Associated Press dispatch an
nouncing that Senator Goebsl had been
shot. Mr.. Bryan made the following
statement:
''It is shocking, shocking. I trust
that the shot will not prove fatal. Mr..
Goebel made a great fight against fierce
opposition, and feeling was wrought up
to a high pitch. bat I had no thought OF
assassination being restored to. 1t prob
ably was the individual act Of some bit
fer political opponent. Icsnnot assume
or believe that any considerable number
Of Republicans or anti-Goebel Demo,
Gratis would counsel or excuse such an
act. I sincerely hope that the Demo
Gratis viii not allow excitement or re-
sentiment to lead them to acts Of violence

cans to enjoy the monopoly Of force and
threats. Let the law deal with those
who violate the law"

Trenches of Clonje.

New York, Mar. IA dispatch to the
World from Kimberley says: Deserters
report that General Cronje intended to
cut his way out through Lord Roberts
forces last Sunday night, but the fall
ure of the scouting Beers outside the
British lines to seize a kopje to aid him
frustrated the project. So he surrend-
cred. Several women and children were
among the prisoners.
1t is declared that the British have
captured four Krupp field guns, two
Wicker Maxims, several ordinary Max
inns and 5000 small arms.
The Boer intrenchnnents were simply
deep narrow bitches. When the British
examined them they found all sorts of
domestic appliances. Trunks and hoxes
in many instances were sunk to the level
of the ground and beside many of them,
partially filled with food. were cooking
utensils.
The tremendous British shell fire seem
ed to have produced scarcely an appre-
cable effect The list of the Beers
wounded during the week the laager was
held was only about eighty. The num-
ber of dead is unknown.

Criticized Boer Tactics.

New York, Mar. 1.-Lieutenant General
John M. Schof1eld, retired, in a dispatch
to the World from st. Augustine, Fla,
says:
The Beers appear to have committed
their first serious mistake in the retreat
from Kimberley by attempting to cross
Immediately in front of the British
forces to reach Bloe1nfontein. Their line
of retreat should have been by way Of
Boshof, which line they should have
made sure to keep open and thence to
Brandfort or Winberg, thus making cer-
tain their junction with troops coming
from the north and east coming from
Bloemfontein.
If for political reasons 1t was thought
necessary to defend the Free State cap
ital, the place should have been held by
other troops until Cronje could reach
1t by the circuitous route above referred
to.
But Bloemfontein Is strategically a
very weak position. If the Beers decide
to hold 1t Lord Roberts will only have
to invest that place with sufficient force
and will still have ample force to prose-
cute his campaign toward Pretoria.

Washington, March 1.-The reformers
got terrible black eye this morning.
Faulkner had possession of bunch of
letters written by Campbell to Mclean,
detective. They used a box in the Butte
postoAfice for an exchange Of letters and
used 10 stamps, a violation of the postal
laws. The letters are alleged to be Of a
most compromising character and show
Campbell's malignant hatred for Clark
and only personal motive in conducting
the investigation. They were submitted
to the committee, some being too indie
cent to be made public.
Mclean was employed by Campbell to
look up evidence, and seems to have
charged sides.
In the afternoon Campbell testified as
to amounts paid the Daily witnesses. He
paid them from 800 to $500 and expenses.
He denied corrupt dealings with Lyons,
but paid him $500 for detective work on
the Jefferson county members.

STATE OF AFFAIRS
in THE BULL PEN
WERE DESCRIBED,

washington, March .1-Wilbur Stew
art, newspaper publisher of Mullan.
Idaho. to-day continued his testimony be-
fore the house committee on military at
fairs concerning the labor troubles in
Idaho. He said that on June 8, his
newspaper was confiscated by two civ
ilians, accompanied by detachment Of
soldiers causing him considerable loss
The witness said that throughout his
detention he was given no trial except
before the Kangaroo Court" He said
this was the name applied to an 'Inqui-
sition" carried on by local official, not
a magistrate. He detailed conversa-
tion with ONE Of the state officials in
which the latter Is said to have asked
Stewart to resume publication of his
paper on "the side of law and order"
threatening that If the publication con-
tinued to be as it had been he would be
kept in the "Bull PEN"
Asked as to the death of one Johnson,
a prisoner in the Bull Pen," he said
johnson was taken before the "Inqui-
sition'' and an effort made to learn from
him the names of those who participa ted
in the riots. When Johnson returned to
the pen he expressed fears that he would
hanged. He tried to kill himself with
an Indian club and later, while fleeing
from an imaginary foe, he was shot
through the head and killed by guard.
Witness said johnson was mentally
sound before being put in the "Pen" and
was pronounced insane after being there.
Other prisoners, he said, were in fear Of
being shot and many thought the place
was to be set on fire.
There were about $50 prisoners and
about 1000 to 1900 soldiers in the Coeur
d'Alene district. He expressed the opin-
ion that there had been NO occasion for
declaring martial law.
Some of Mr. Lentz's inquiries brought
into question the accuracy OF the report
of testimony taken by the industrial
commission as to the Idaho trouble but
this line Of inquiry was ruled out on the
ground that the commission had no au-
thority to investigate the Industrial con-
dition.
On crcss- examina ton Representative
Parker took the witness over circum-
stances on the day the mill was blown
lp. Stewart said he saw large parties
leave Mulan and return later in the day
but he did not know the purpose of the
movements. Several members of the
committee questioned witness as to the
departure of miners n the. day of the
dynamiting of the mill. He said he
party numbered from ITO to 200. The
mining population of Mullan was about
$50. When the parties returned they re-
fused to say where they had been or
what had occurred He saw one man
carrying a shot gun but none of them
wore masks. The committee took re.
cess at this point.
