CABINET WILL STAND
PRESIDENT scKINLEY AvERsE TO
MAKING CHANGES.
Previous to the National Republican
Convention the President An
neunced TO the Members of His
Cabinet That II He Was Re-
elected He Desired Them to Re-
3 main with Him-Mr. GriEgs Said
TO Have Expressed . Desire to
Retire.

I washington, Nov. s.-With the re-
turn of the president to Washington
the indications that there would be
little IL any change In the composition
Of the cabinet during Mr.. Mckinleys
second administration are more ap-
parent thk&
1t was learned that at meeting Of
the cabinet Just before the Republican
convention the president said to his
official family: IF I am nominated
and elected 1t will be with the under
standing that all of you remain with
us. / don't want any changes"
There was no dissent from this, and
while the members of the cabinet hive
not talked the matter over. 1t is ap-
parent that they regard 1t as matter
Of duty to continue In public office un-
less some good reason exists to the
contrary,
Mr.. Griggs is making a great pc
cuniary sacrifice by remaining In the
cabinet and is said to have expressed
desire to retire. His reason for this
is appreciated by the president and
his cabinet colleagues, and they re-
gard the ground he takes as proper
and right. But II is by no means GER
tain that Mr.. Griggs will not change
his mind. The president regards him
as an exceedingly strong man and
will use every reasonable argument to
persuade him to remain. Mr.. McKin-
ley win not, II Is said. insist on Mr..
Griggs remaining unless he can so
arrange his private business as to
overcome the pecuniary sacrifice which
he is making. but the president and
the cabinet are hopeful that Mr..
Griggs will be able to see his way clear
to continue his duties in the depart
ment Of Justice for the next four
years

Mute speaks just Before Death.

Charles City, Iowa, Nov IL. Mrs
Charles Palmer, a mute, died yesterday
OF quick consumption. She had not
spoken for nearly thirty years. but just
before she died she summoned up all her
strength and articulated somewhat
brokenly but sufficiently plain to be un-
derstood by her mother, who received the
message from her dying daughter. She
said she was ready and willing to die.
Mrs. Palmer had been deaf and dumb
since childhood, when she was left mute
by a severe attack of scarlet fever. She
had been living with her husband also a
mute, at Rochester. Mimi, till she came

Lord Lamington. the governor or

Beers Admit a Heavy Loss in the
Fight with French's Forces.
British Prisoners Are Released
Steyn Urges the Beers to Con-

Statements.

Pretoria, Nov. 0. Gen. Dewet was
wounded In the leg In fight with the
troops OF Gen. Knox. The Boer COM
mander narrowly escaped capture.
One of Gen. French's scouts who was
captured near Heidelberg, and who was at
first treated badly by the Beers, who
threatened TO shoot him, was afterward
released aad taken with dispatch TO Gen.
French's headquarters. He states that
Gen. Louis Botha is in command of the
Beers, and has with him the Bethel, Car
olina, Ermelo and Middleburg comman-
does. The scout says he recognized a
number of British prisoners in the laager.
They were captured during Gen.
Frenchs first advance. They will be re-
leased and furnished with passes as soon
as the official who issues passes arrives
from Middleburg.
The scout also states that the Beers
are short of supplies and are living on
mealie and meal and using burnt mealies
TO make coffee. The supply of meal, how
ever. is abundant.
The Beers were very much disappoint-
ed because they were unable to capture
any of Gen. French's convoy. which was
the object of their continued attacks.
The convoy consisted of 700 wagons. The
Beers admitted that they had lost heav-
lily, especially the morning after Gen.
French left Bethel On that occasion the
Beers, who thought all the British had
gone, approached close to farm near
which the carbineers were posted, and
lost fifty in killed and wounded out of
force of 200.
In the .Bird Cage.
During the last few days only a few
slight skirmishes have been reported.
The small Boer laagers west of here are
being driven about the country owing
to the movements of Gems. Clements and
French. The road to Rustenburg Is al
most clear Of Beers. The prisoners, OFF,
GERS and men, who are now captured in
this vicinity are being lodged in the "bird
cage" which the Beers formally used as
a place of detention for captured British
officers. Because of slight discomfort.
caused by the recent rains. the Boer

Col. Edwards. late Of the Imperial
Light Horse, and now second in COM
mand of the Transvaal police, has been
given charge OF the western districts,
which includes johannesburg, Pretoria.
Krugersdorp and Rustenberg.
The Beers commanded by Gen. Botha
have succeeded In capturing number of
cattle that were herded close to He!del-
berg.
Surrendered burghers assert that Mr..
Steyn, after council of war with Gen.
Botha and Gen. Delary, addressed the
burghers with great passion. urging them
to continue the war. He told Them he
was going south ard hoped to return
with 5000 men. assuring them that he
knew that Germany had delivered an ul-
timatum TO Great Britain. demanding the
retrocession of the republic.

Cuban COnvention. tt@

Washington, Nov. IL. China was
pushed aside yesterday at the cabinet
discussion by other live questions
which are now being forced to the cen-
ter of the stage, as for example, the
Philippine insurrcction, the Cuban
constitutional convention and the re-
cent elections In Porto Rico and the
delegate to congress. President NC
Kinley is being kept informed of the
proceedings Of the Cuban convention,
as he viii be largely influenced in max
ing a recommendation to congress by
the spirit displayed by the Cuban dele
gates. 1t is not unlikely that the
president will simply recite what has
been done In observing the resolution
of congress granting Cuba complete
independence and place the RESPONSE
bility upon the executive body to de-
termine what final disposition shall be
made of the Cuban question.
Orders have been forwarded to Gen.
Macarthur IN the Philippines to wage
a vigorous campaign against preda>
tory guerrilla bands of insurgents in
order to extinguish the smoldering
fires of rebellion. Despite the absence
of public announcement at the war
department, there is strong feeling
here that the Philippine insurrection
will shortly be a thing of the past.
Gen. MacArthur's orders are compre-
hensive and instruct him to send his
men into the regions and mountain
fastnesses where the insurgent bands
flee for refuge, and from which they
emerge now and then to make some
cowardly attack on American troops.
American officers here think that as
soon as the result of the election be-
comes Known throughout the Philip
pines, the resistance to the authority
of the United States will be overcome.
