BOBRS ARE SILENT
And Thought TO Be En-
trenching At Potfontein
Few Miles From
Mafeking

LONDON, May 26.-Lord Roberts has
now crossed the Vaal river and
French's cavalry Is probably recon-
noitering beyond. There ia nothing
yet to chow what the Beers are doing.
Press dispatches describe them ss hav-
ing retired north of the Vaal without
making q stand at the river.
Interest is again centering about
Mafeking. Beers are reported to be
entrenching at Potfontein, ten miles to
the east of the town, and preparing to
contest any advances from Mafeking
into the Trsnsvasl.
Gen. Suymao, who commands the
Beers at Posfontein, has practically
the same force which was beseiging
Col. Baden-PoweIl.
Mafeking Is Is miles from Johan-
nesburg. The fact that Gen. Hunter
is headed for Msfeking with the left
wing of the British army naturally
creates q suspicion on the Boers' part
that a turning movement on Pretoria
is part of Roberts's plan of campaign.
South African blacks are now begin
ming to fight among them mselves.

New York At Work.

NEW YORK, May 26.-At a com pill

honor OF his public services as presi'
dent of the Merchants association,

ship tban any business association in
the world. Iss members embrace
merchants, business men, and public
spirited citizens In sll walks Of life. 1t
is non-partisan and its chief purposes
are to oppose corrupt Legislation and
government, railroad discrimination
and to promote m alters OF general
public welfare.

CLEARING
THE TRACK
For The Congressional Loco
motive To Roll Along
Next Week
and REACH ITS GOAL
With The Appropriation Bills
Passed And The Canal
And Subsidy Project
Sidetracked

WASHINGTON, May 26.-While the
Philippine bill was continued as un-
finished in the senate next week, there
Is no disposition on the part of the
republican managers to press 1t to a
vote, particularly If it should lead to
an extended debate. They prefer to
rush along the appropriation bills and
as only few are uuacted upon, the
indications are that they will all b.
out of the way by Sunday June 2nd
Then the leaders will take up seriously
the house resolution providing for ad :
journment of congress on JuEe 9Th. It
seems to be the general impression
now that this arrangement can be ef-
fected, unless an attempt should be
made to press obi sctionsble minor
legislation.
On Monday, after the morning rou-
tine business, Mr.. Wellington, of
Maryland, will address the senate on
Mr.. Teller's resolution relating to
speedy conclusion of the war In South
Africa.
Mr.. Morgan appears to have sb-
andoned al!hope of securing considera-
tion at this session OF the Nicaragua
canal bill.
The chip subsidy bill is also to be
sidewalked and nothing will come up
in ell probability that will tend to de-
lay final ADJOURNMENT.

UNIQUE CASE
A Woman Who Wants Her Husband
Declared Dead

JERSEY City, N. j., May 26-Mrs
Catherine Whalen had q hearing
before Surrogate Lil's yesterday who
considered her application to have her
hus sband, Jas. w. Wbalen, declared
dead, in accordance with the statute
providing that person is legally
dead who has disappe ared for seven
years.
In 1890 Whalen went to Cripple
Creek, Colo. He struck gold. Money
flowed home in numerous letters for a
year. Then it all stopped and efforts
to locate Whslen have been fruitless.
The application Is opposed by blood
relatives of Whalen who are contend
ing for legacy Of $4,000 recently
left him by an aunt.
Usually such cases are not contested
and 1t may be that Wbalen or recent
photographs of him will be produced,
ss his relatives claim to have q

Ell PASO TEXAS, SATURDAY.
A GREAT RACE
This Afternoon For the Joy Of See
ing the Matlnee-Ten Happy


ing the Mdtlnee-Ten Happy
Boys.
Promptly at 2:3O this afternoon th e
word "go" was given. and forty small
boys, many of them HERALD newsboys.
started lickety split for the opera
house. It was pretty long run on q
little fellows ran the whole quarter
mile, and the contest was q spirited
one.
Russell Rokshr led the bunch from
start to finish. The ten boys who
crossed the line first we're Russell
Chesney, Gilbert Conner, Dave Crock
EFT, Walter Irwin, Bay Gooch, Sam
Apodscs, John O'Kueale, and Claude
Jaqua.
Long before O'Clock the boys began
to gather in front of the HERALD Of
q ticket containing the name of E
Psso's popular newspaper. A few
minutes before the time set the boys
were lined up across the street.
Ell Paso street was lined with inter.
ested spectators. ALI wagons and
teams kindly cleared the track, and the
street made an excel lent stretch for q
quarter mile dash.
At the word the boys were off.
They started in bunch, but they had
strung out pretty we'll before they
reached Overland street. AT the opera
house crowd gathered to cheer the
racers, and as the first ten boys crossed
the line they were given tickets en-
titlip g them to seats in box q the HER.
AID had engaged for them.
Happier youngsters it would be hard
to find.
Little Dick Caples, aged five years,
m ade good race, but was not in the
first ten. One of the HERALD carrier
boys, however. treated Dick to a matt
nee ticket, and he walked in like the
Prince of Wales.
Little Scanny," the HERALD'S
star newsboy, was too fat to run very
we'll, and besides he came all logged
up in his Sunday clothes, and the
weight was too much for him.
The boys want tt try it over.

FIRES NOW

Under The Boilers Of The
New Power
Plant
And LIGHT PROBABLE
On Friday, June I, As The
Company Is Now Push
ing Its Operations
Forward

| William 81. Bryan, of the firm of
Bryan Humphrey, consulting en-
Rineers, of st. Louis, is in the city,
are engineers for the International
Light and Power company, aud de-
signed their new station. In an in
terview with BERALD reporter Mr..
Bryan said:
1.-THE people Of El Paso are to be
congratulated upon the public spirit
| aud enterprise shown by the Interna-
! tional company in constructing SO
| thoroughly modern an electric light
system. When designin this plant
our instructions were simply to make
an exhaustive study of the l,cal condi-
tions and Gee that our plans covered
the most efficient system which could
b. devised-one which would give the
people the most satisfactory service
viding simply that the plant must be
capable of earning q modest return on
the investment, at rates much below
those which had previously been
charged. The company will be pre-
pared to furnish arc, incande scent, and
power service from a single eugire
dynamo, aud circuit, either by meter.
or at fl At rates. Everything about the
pl ant is in duplicate, 60 that an inter-
ruptiOn of the service is practically
impossible.
when will service beeiL ?"
"Our energies are now being direct
ed towards beginning the city ligh hting
on the night of Friday, June l, and
this will undoubtedly be accomplished
unless unforeseen obstacles are encoun-
tered. The incsndescent and power
service will al % be inau9ura.ed very
shortly thereafter. Fires we're built
under the boilers for the fret time
yesterday and high pressure test is
being given the entire steam system
| today. The engines and 1ynsmos will
be turned over early next week"
"How about rates?"
"They are very reasonable indeed,
considering the high price of fuel. In
ST Louis where I live, rates are as
high as 25 cents per kiic-watt hour for
| residences. Large consumers in the
business districts may get dis
counts bringing their rate
down to about Is cts. which 1 under
stand is the highest which is to
| be charged here, in spite of the fact
that fuel is three or four times as ex-
pensive. In St. Louis gas Ia sold at
S1.OO, but many prefer electricity
even at the higher rate. Considering
the very low figures at which electric
lights are being offered by the new
| company, as compared with LAS, aud
| the superiority of the service, it would
seem but a question of q very short
time when there will be very gen
eral change from gas to electricity. The
| reduced amount of he at from the incan-
descent lamp, and the advantages of
fan service, will surely be much ap-
preciated in this climate. The new
company's service will undoubtedly
grow rapidly as soon as the peopls be-
tng to realize the full advantages of
the service. This Is the universal ex-
perience in ST. Louis, and in fact in ell
the large eastern cities"
