THE UNIDENTIFIED BRETON.
He Cheers for His Queen and Will
 March on Ladysmlth.

London, Feb. 1.-The Cape Town correspondent of the Daily Mail, tele- graphing yesterday, says:
 Gen. Butler yesterday read the fol. lowing message from the queen to Sir Charles Warren's force:
 - I must express my admiration of the troops during the past trying week, especially of those regiments you specify, and of the accomplish meId of your arduous march,
 Gen. Butler told the men that they ought not to think.sbecause they had retired from their position. that all their work was of no avail. On the contrary, in his opinion, they had gained the key to the road to Lady smith in which he hoped to be within a week.
 'iGen. Butler then called for cheers for the queen, which were. heard for miles around"

REcoNN0ITERED In FORGE.
But Met Greater Force and Pradents
 ly Retired with Small Loss.

Rensburg, Cape Colony. Friday, Jan. 26.--Gen. French reconnoitered yester- day by Bastard's Nek, with a force nf Hussars, Inniskillings, four guns of the royal artillery, mounted infantry, the Yorkshire, Wiltshire and portion of the Essex regiments.
 Turning to the northeast he ap. preached the Boer position at Reitfon- tein, nine miles beyond Colesberg, on tho wagon bridge road, which the enemy have been fortifying with t view of falling back when they evac- uate Colesberg.
 Cautiously approaching. Gen. French sbelled the enemy, who replied with artillery and infantry fire.
 The British, who were we'll protects ed, suffered very little. An officer and nine men were wounded, one of the latter of whom has since died, and three men are missing. As the Boers were found ill great force, confirming the reported reinforcement, and in a strong position, Gen. French discon- tir ued the attack, and returned to camp.

BY STRICT PARTY VOTES.
Goebel and Beckham Declared Elect ed by the COntestinx Boards.

Goebel and BecI<ham Declared Elect
 ed by the Contesting Boards.
 Frankfort, Ky, Jan. 31.-While Will jam Goebel lay at the point of death in his room, as the result of an assas- sins bullet, the contesting boards, which for two weeks had been listening to the evidence in his contest for the gov ernor's chair, declared him entitled to the seat.
 The boards havingin charge the con- tests between Goebel and Taylor, for go, ernor, and Peckham and Marshall for lieutenant governor, met at seven o'clock Tuesday night in the city hail to consider the evidence submitted to them and prepare their report to ths legislature. A few legal authorities were read to them at the request of Senator Allen, who wished light shed upon few doubtful points. The vote was then taken, and by strict party vote of ten to one, William Goebel was declared to have been legally elected governor of Kentucky.
 The Northumberland contest was then voted upon, and strict party vote of nine to two settled this mat ter.
 No announcement was made of the reasons leading up to the report being so suddenly made, the boards taking everything at one leap. Each one of tn. members of both committees an- ncunced that he had made up his mind as to the merits of the case, and voted promptly as his name was called. In the contest for governor, Repre- sertat tive Yarberry was the one to vote in favor of Taylor, and in the Beck ham-Marshall contest, Reid and Lilly were with Marshall.

Railroads Liability.

An important decision was rendered
 by the supreme court recently in the case of Moore vs. Iron Mountain Rail. road Company, appealed from Saline circuit court. The plaintiff was ejected from a picnic train some time in 1896, and brought suit for damages. The de. fendsnt corporation answered, setting up the claim that it had leased the train for the purposes of the picnic excur- sion, and was thereby relieved of lia. bility. The plaintiff demurred to the answer and the demurrer was over ruled. The plaintiff took an appeal and the supreme court reversed the de cision of the lower court, declaring that the leasing of the train did not relieve he railway company of liability.

BoERs MAY CUT MS COMMUNICATION.
The Greatest Danger Lies h the In. nense Supply Trains that Wf Ne- cessity Accompanies the Army Boers May Get Gen. B0ller h . Trap.

New York, Feb. LA London dis. patch to the Evening World says:
 Buffers danger is now forcing itself on the military experts. A committee of national defense has already taken il up, and is grave;y considering it. Lord Roberts himself has communicat. ed his anxiety, it is said.
 Lord Roberts, Anxiety.
 He has, it is reported, cabled inc committee that unless Butler and his forces arrive snfely iron. their pres- ent position to the south of the Little Tugela river, they will be in i,nmlncnt danger of having their communica- tions cut.
 Lord Roberts has pointed out that Butler has with him an immense trans- port train, carrying his ammunition and supplies. This intcrfcres with the mobility of his army.
 situation of Bullcr's Force.
 Buffers main force is now about g miles from its base, at Frere nnd Chieveley. If is between the Big Tu- gela river, over which it has retreat- ed, and the Little Tugela river, over which it has to retreat in order to be- gin the march to its base. That part of it comprising Lyttleton's brigade may still be on the north side of the Tugela at Potgietcr's drift
 A Matter of Several Days.
 It will take Jays for Buffers army to get back to it's base. Meantime the Boers are in force at Colensc, only a few miles from that buse. Last Tues day they crossed the rlver there, and made reconnaissance of the British camp, evidently with view of ascer- taining the strength of the force which Butler left behind to guard bis base and communications.
 Fight With the Rear Guard. The party that crossed came into contact with Buller's renr guard and killed several of the British. That reconnaissance indicated purpose on the part of the l,oeiss to cut Brller's communications of. {.

School Book Decision.

State Superintendent Dovne gave out .n important decision on the question. Are special school districts organized after the adoption of the county uni formity law required to use the books .elected by the text book commission of the county in which such districts are organized?' He says: "The law regulating the formation of special school districts was not abrogated by the passage of the county uniformity law. I am of the opinion that any special school district is allowed to adopt set of school books to be used in the same for period of three years, in keeping with section 7o46 of the school law. It matters not when the special school district is organized"

an outrage, ana Calilng TOT the most sober condemnation. He sent orders at once to Adjt.-Gen. Collier, directing hira to take steps for the preservation of order.
 Gen. Collier is a republican. and is opposed to Mir. Goebel. He declared the shooting to be a most cowar,lly affair and one that upon every consid- eration was to be regretted.
 Prompt Action by Gen. Collier.
 He lost no time in making speeches, how ever, and before Goebel had been lifted from the ground to be carried to the hotel, Gen. Collier had tele- phored to the armory, half mile dis tant. directing the local infantry com pany which was stationed there, un- dec command of Capt. Walcott, to pro- cced at once to the capitol grounds, take possession of them and it's ap- breaches. allowing nobody to enter .he gates. Twenty minutes after the shooting, Capt. Walcott and his men marched across the front of the capitol building, and halted at the foot of the steps.
 Entire state Guard Called Out. Orders were issued to outside com panies throughout the state to make ready at once to come to Frankfort, the entire state guard being called into service. 1t was feared that the news of the shooting would so infame tie democrats that they would come to Frankfort in swarms while the mountaineers would lose no time in coming to the capital for the purpose of upholding their party principles. Tt makes no difference to me-" sand Gen. Collier, 'who starts anything. We l will preserve order on both sides" Threats of Vengeance. The excitement among the follow CTS of Mir. Goebel was great, and for a short time immediately following | the shooting of their leader there was more than possibility that some of | hot-heads would seek vengeance upon their political enemies. Threats were made against republican leaders and attorneys during the excitement, but the leading democratic members of the house and senate soon brought them to cclmer talk.
 Poured Toward the Capitol Grounds.
 As the news spread through the | streets that Goebel had been shot, men began to pour toward the capitol grounds from all sides, one throng be- ing led by two firemen, one of whom carried Winchester rife, which the other finally prevailed upon him to lay | asicc.
 | Another Shooting. X shooting affray occurred in a sa- loon about this; time. Craig Ireland, a sporting man, fatally wounding Ike Williams, a negro. The men were quar- reling, when Williams struck Ireland, who promptly sent a bullet through the negro's stomach. Ireland was locked up. This second shooting caused
 great excitement for time, and it
 was thought the long-threatened po- litical shooting in general all along the line had been inaugurated. The affair
 had nothing to do with the political
 situation
 Senator BlaclSburn's Advice.
 Senator-elect Blackburn, who was in
 Washington, was informed of the shooting through the long distance tel
 ephone, and sent back message urg-
 ing the democrats to remain quiet and
 take no rash action of any sort.

anG Chinn upon the left. From the otter edge of the capitol grounds to the step of the capitol building the distance is about 300 feet. Two-thirds of this had been passed and the men were walking slowly when suddenly a shot rang out from large three-story building which stands 50 feet east of the capitol building. This building is used for offices by nearly all the lead ing officials of the state, Gov. Taylor and the secretary of state having rooms on the first floor.
 Several More shots Fired. As the shot was heard, Goebel gave a quick, involuntary exclamation of pain, and made an effort to draw his revolver. His strength was unable to the task, however, and he sank upon tfe pavement. With great rapidity several more shots were fired, the bull lets all striking the brick sidewalk clcse to where Goebel lay. None of them touched him, however.
 "I Guess They Have Killed Me-"
 Lillard hastily turned around to aid Gocbel, who was supported by Chinn, who had his arms about him almost as soon as he touched the pavement.
 Get help" said Chinn to Lillard, and turning to Goebel, he asked:
 Are you hurt? Did they get you"
 They have got me this time" re- piled Goebel; Il guess they have killed me"
 n axa In less than a minute a crowd of men was around Goebel. He was los ing much blood, and was becoming very weak. He was hastily carried to the office of Dr. E. F.. Hume, in the basement of the capitol hotel, and about 1000 feet away from the spot where the shooting occurred. Here he was laid on a sofa while Dr. Hume made a nasty examination, pronounce ing the wound to be of a nature that must cause death in a short time. GOcbeI Dissented.
 Goebel, who showed great fortitude and courage throughout, smiled weak | ly as he heard the verdict, and feebly rolled his head from side to side in tcken of dissent from the opinion ex- pre- ssed by the physician. He was then carried to his room on the second floor

DEMOCRATIC CONTESTANT SHOT DOWN.
The Wound Pronounced Probably Fatal by the DoctOrs-ShOt from . Window While Approaching the CapItOl-GOebel and Beckhnm De- clRred Elected.

Frankfort, Ky, Jan. 31.-While walk ing through the capitol grounds on the way to the capitol at :50 a. m. Tue sday, William Goebel. the demo- :ratic contestant for governor of Ken lucky, was shot down and very dan gerously wounded.
 Arrested as a Suspect. Harland Whitaker, a farmer from Butler, the home of Gov. Taylor, is now in jail in Louisville, charged with ithe crime. There is no direct evidence against Whitaker, and he was placed under arrest more because he was caught around the capitol building when the shots were fired than for any other apparent reason. He denies in the most positive manner that he had any connection with the shooting or knew anything about it. He was run ning toward the scene of the shooting and not away from it when he was caught.
 The Course of the Bullet. Senator Goebel was wounded by a rifle ball of small caliber, not over 3S, which struck him in the right side | jus, below the arm pit. The ball passed through the back part of the right lung, across the body on di- aeonal line, passing out below the left shoulder blade. No vital organs were | injured except the right lung. On His Way to the Senate Chamber | Mir. Goebel was on his way to the | senate chamber, in company with Col
