AUSTRIAN COUNTS
VERSION OF THE
DEFEAT OF CRONJE

New York, March 26.-COunt Adelbert
Sternberg, young Austrian noble, who
spent two months in the western Boer
camps up to the time of his capture by
the English, on February 15,gave the cor
respondent of the Neue Freie Presse in
teresting particulars Of the effect pro-
duced upon the burghers by the unex-
pected appearance of the British forces in
the Orange Free State. These confirm
the previous statements that General
Cronje failed to recognize the significance
of Lord Roberts strategic movement.
Count Sternberg arrived at Magersfon-
tein soon after the Boer victory of De-
cember II. He found the camp in jubi-
liant spirits. The burghers began early
in February to observe the arrival of
large masses of troops in the English
camp and on the 10th they received news
of the British advance on Koffyfontein.
Count Sternberg rode to Jacobsdal to re-
connoiter and came in sight Of British
patrols. That evening 600 burghers were
sent to check the advance of the British
cavalry.
General Cronjes opinion was that the
English were advancing with the object
of cutting off the retreat of the Boer de-
tachment at Colesberg. On the morning
of the 11th Count Sternberg found the
English endeavoring to cross the RAM
dam ford. opposed by the Beers. Two
wounded Inniskillings dragons told him
that Lord Kitchener was proceeding to
the relief of Kimberley with $4,000 men.
While bathing in the Riet, the count
saw several English regiments march
past. Escaping notice he galloped back
to Cronjes camp and told what he had
seen. He met with incredulity, the
Beers insisting that large bodies Of
troops neither would nor could undertake
such movement.
The only action taken by General
Cronje was to send 200 men across the
river to cut off the English transport
wagons. which they succeeded in doing.
On the following day. five miles from
the camp. Count Sternberg saw at short
distance huge clouds OF dust which indi-
Gated the presence Of troops on the
march. At this time General Cronje was
waiting in the trenches at Magersfontein
in expectation Of an attack. Count Stern
berg's news was laughed at by the Beers
In camp.
1t was not until the next day that Cen
eral Cronje began to recognize the Sc
robustness of the situation. The cannon

He added that in his judgment labor

dominated by criminals"
When asked to specify the so-called
criminals, the governor said he did not
care to give names.
Steunenberg was asked why he did not
resort to the posse comitatus, calling on
citizens to aid the sheriff in maintaining
order. He said he did not believe the
ordinary civil procedure was sufficient to
deal with the situation. He was confront
ed with a crisis, he said, and he acted to
the best of his ability and Judgment to
meet the crisis, although it was possible,
he answered Sulzer, that he might have
erred.

burghers or English. Even then the Beers
were still of the opinion that the attack
was directed against their camp and con-
sequently set about raising defenses in
the rear.
Landrost Steyn, who arrived from Jac-
obsdal. was convinced that the game was
lost on the Modder river, while General
Cronje still awaited the main attack in
the intrenchments at Magersfontein, and
did not wish to weaken his position there.
The immediate vicinity of the British
with large force of artillery had Great
ed great confusion in the camp, which at
2 o'clock in the morning removed to a
safer position about three miles to the
southwest. The breaking up of the camp
greatly effected the spirits of the entire
Boer force. When the British renewed
the attack early next morning it was evil
dent to Count Sternberg that the burgh-
ers had no stomach for the fight.
He says: ''As rode out I met num-
bers of flying Beers whom I vainly en-
deavored to restrain. The panic was gem
eral and each sought safety in the in
trenchments at Magersfontein. Toward
noon, when a large number of Beers had
already made off. a very bad spirit began
to prevail in camp.
THE field cornets urged Cronje to sum-
mon a council Of war and those present
decided to evacuate the camp and retreat
to Bloemfontein via Oliphantsfontein. 1t
came to high words at this council, at
which Villebiers and were also present.
The majority of the Free State burghers,
who were anxious for their cattle and
property, positively insisted upon the re-
treat"

MAJOR KlRKMAN IS
FACING CHARGES BY
COURT MARTIAL.

New oYrk, March 26.-The Times SAYS:
In letter written by an army officer in
Manila to- his parents in Brooklyn, he
says that Major Kirkman, U. s. W., cap.
tain of regulars, has been court martial
ed for an alleged insult to Archbishop
'Chapelle, papal delegate to the Philip
pines, during a voyage from San Fran
cisco to Manila. The letter says:
"Enroute to Manila Archbishop Cha
pelle was insulted by Major Kirkman
who was in command of the transport.
The major hung his blanket to be aired
50 that it covered the window Of the
archbishop's stateroom. Archbishop
Chapelle sent his clerical assistant to the
major to complain that he was unable
to air his stateroom. Major Kirkman
replied that he did not care whether the
stateroom was aired or not. The arch
bishop endured the insult throughout the
trip. When the transport arrived in Ma
nila bay General Otis sent his staff off,
GERS out to meet it in a launch. The Of
f1cer went on board and invited the arch
bishop to proceed by launch to the city.
This procedure astonished Kirkman,
who had not been aware that the duties
OF the archbishop We're official.
when Archbishop Chapelle was leav-
ing the transport he was asked by sever
al officers if he would report the insult.
He replied: Yes, not that it will benefit
me. but. that it will prevent like insults
to those coming after me-
Major Kirkman is now being court
martialed for the insult. The charge Is

victed he will be dismissed from the ar

Special to the Inter Mountain.
Helena, Mont, March 26.-This was the
day set by the supreme court for near
ing arguments upon the motion to show
cause why the injunction issued March
Bird of last year, to restrain the Montana
Ore Purchasing company from working
certain portions of the Pennsylvania
Rarus grounds in litigation should not be
dissolved. The Montana Ore Purchas-
ing company asked to have the injunc-
ton dissolved becouse the matters at is
sue had been decided in it's favor by
Judge Clancy. The injunction has been
modified several times since originally is
sued.
The Boston & Montana sprang SEN
sat,on by filing lot of affidavits charg-
ing that the Montana Ore Purchasing
company has disobeyed said injunction
since the officers of the company and A.
p, Heinze were fined for contempt March
. of last year. and asked that the COM
many and officers be again fined for con-
tempt. The court set the matter for
hearing April II. The court heard to-
day arguments upon the motion to dis
solve the same Injunction. This af-
ternoon it heard the testimony of

Washington, March Ex-Governor
Steunenberg's cross-examination contin-
ued to-day in the Occur d'Alene investi-
cation before the house committee on mil
itary affairs.
~ Representative Sulzer directed the
cross-examination, inquiring how the
governor justified the continuance Of
martial law.
The witness said there had been a con-
tinuous state of rebellion in the Coeur
dAlene districts and while it did not
take on the form of armed resistance
there was at all times opposition to the
policy of the state authorities, an effort
to thwart them and to bring renewal
of the old condition of affairs.
Mr.. Sulzer pressed for a specification
of the names and events in this disorder
but the governor said it was general in
character and specific outbreaks were
not likely to occur while the authorities
continued to act with frmness. The
governor said he was not in favor Of

view Is proved by the fact Of the enemy's
