hills arrival at Cheveley camp is per-
haps responsible for some overlooking
OF the gravity of the situation, but to-
days news conveys the impression that
Butler may be intending another at
tack upon the Boer position.
Certainly. the Beers are not inactive.
At both Modder river and the Tugela
they are said to be strengthening their
forces and extending defense works,
which In both cases are seemingly al
most impregnable.
Dispatches from Chevsley indicate
that General Buffers forces will re-
mobilize at Frere before attempting
another advance. Doubtless he would
be glad to retrieve the Colenso reverse
before the arrival of Lord Roberts, yet
he is hardly likely to attempt another
frontal. attack. 1t is moro likely that
he is preparing to- strike should the
Beers make any offensive movement.

England Leaves IslanAs 10 the Care Of
Germany and Unitsd States.
Washington, Dec. 29.-The British
government has acted ON the agree
ment and treaties for the partition Of
Samoa and has withdrawn the super.
visory authority which il has exercised
of late years in common with Germany
and the United States. This probably
accounts for the recent reports from
Apia that the German flag has been
raised as the withdrawal of the British
leaves Germany alone In authority.
The British have withdrawn their au.
.thority In Tutuila. So far a. Germany
and Great Britain, their interests were
settled in q treaty between themselves.
This treaty provided for Great Britain's
withdrawal from the islands and the
German transfer TO Great Britain OF
certain islands in the South Pacific.
This treaty has already gone into effect,
as it was not delayed by the require
ment of submission to the United States
senate, and, acting on 1t, the British
authorities have withdrawn their gu.
pervisory participation in the govern
ment of Samoa. For the present, how
ever, the British consular officers re-
main there, as the foreign countries are
likely to continue their con suls in
Samoa, even though these officials no
longer carry on the government of the
islands.

A SCENE OF DESOlATION.
After the Earthquake at San Jacinto
and Helmet.

After the Earthquake at San Jacinto
and Helmet.
San Jacinto, Dec. 28.-This little
city is the scene of desolation today.
People are beginning to recover from
the shock of the earthquake which GEN.
tered here and destroyed every brick
building in the town, and some definite
estimates of the damage wrought can
now be made.
AT the Saboba Indian reservation,
near here, a dance had been held the
night before, and large quantities OF
whisky consumed by the Indians had
sent most of them into drunken slum.
Der before the shock came. A number
of squaws had huddled together in an
old .adobe building and were sleeping
off the effects of the liquor. The
heavy walls fell in upon them. Six
were killed outright, and two died
later, while a score more are badly in
jured. Those killed were horribly
crushed.

RIGHTS OF STRIKERS.

Unusual Decision by q Toledo (Ohio)
Judge.
Toledo, O., Dec. 28.-Judge Morris,
in the commonplace court, today rend-
cred an unusual decision as to the
rights of striking workmen. The
members of the bicycle workers union
struck at the Standard Tube & Forkside
works. A temporary injunction was
granted restraining strikers from pa
trolling the works and accOsting and
ihtimidating employees who took their
places. This injunction Judge Morris
today dissolved, holding that the strik-
ers had perfect right to keep pickets
about the works and to talk to work
men and urge them to come out. He
held that there was no positive evidence
of threats, and that the number of men
employed at the works exceeded the
mum Der of strikers usually kept Sn
picket duty, 80 there could be no
danger of personal violence. The case
will be appealed.

sickness has broken out in both the
British and Boer camps in Natal. Four

Scanned, who has been identified with
Irish agitators for many years, said to-
day that there was to be q meeting OF

delphia pext Sunday or Monday to dis.
cuss the-question of invading Canada.
"This meeting" Colonel Scanned
says, will be followed by another in

Colonel Scanned says that the present

away to take part in the African war.
alt has been agitated for years."
continued the colonel, that Canada
should either bet annexed to the United
States OF should have an independent
government of her own. The present
African war will, in my opinion, see
the first break In the British empire.
With an army of 100. 900 Irish nation
alists engaged in the invasion of Can
ada, 1t would make things interesting
for the English government"
Referring to the Fenian invasion Of
Canada of many years ago, Colonel
Scanned said that it was q failure be-
cause there were too many generals
and colonels and no discipline. This
would not happen now, he said, since

Strong Band Of FilipInos Routed BY
Lockett's Forces.
Manila, Dec. 29.-Colonel Lockett,
with force of 1850, including artil-
lery, attacked this morning a strong
force of insurgents entrenched in the

Americans pursuing them through the
hills, where they fed in every direc-
ton. Four Americans were wounded.
The Filipino loss was large. resulting
from heavy infantry and artillery FIRE
for three hours into the trenches.
1t is supposed the insurgents were
those who were driven out of San Ma
teo the day General Lawton was killed.
They numbered probably 1000.
A dozen lines of insurgent trenches
covered the steep trail through the hills
and likewise the valley below, along
which the Americans passed. The main
attacking party consisted of the Forty
sixth volunteer infantry, troop of cav
airy and artillery, Colonel Lockett

the police cleared the room, but they
