in July, 1899, heavy windstorm blew down
part of one of the old warehouses on the

the part left standing was liable to fall t
any time and cause an accident, a gang of
men was set to work tearing down the re-

Now that Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Bristow's report has been made
public the arrest of ex-D!rector General of
Posts Rathbone, at Havana, may soon fol-
low. 1t is intimated at the Post Office De-
partment that the delay in arresting Mr.

give Mr.. Rathbone every opportunity to ex-
plain items which the report saws are unac-
counted for
Postmaster General Smith and Fourth
Assistant Bristow decline to discuss the
matter.
ihe postmaster Generals letter of trans
initial of the report to Secretary Root calls
particular attention to two important points
IN the case against Mr.. Rathbone on which
the latter's expected arrest probably will
De manly based. In this letter Mr. Smith
says: '-'
1t further shows that E. G. Ratbbone
late director general of posts drew two
warrants of 500 each, on which he himself
optalhed the money, and that no account or
eApIaHa,loh es mas been rendered; that he ap-
proprlated per diem of 81 for several
months after II had been expressly nrohih

LONDON, July 23.-Lord Roberts reports
to the war office, under date of Balmoral,
July 25, as follows:
I'VE marched here yesterday without
seeing the enemy. The Beers on July "a
engaged French and Hutton six miles south
of Balmoral. While Alderson's mounted
infantry attacked the Beers right, French
made turning movement around their
left. Seeing their retreat threatened. the
Beers broke and fed. French and Hutton
followed and proposed to cross Oliphant's
river today at Naauw Poort. Our casual
ties were one wounded"
Lord Roberts reports to the war office
today that General Archibald Hunters
command was heavily engaged July "a and
. in the hills south of Bethlehem. The
Beers were strongly intrenched and fought
stubborniy throughout the 9th and com
PEELED the British to retire from some of
their positions with about fifty casualties.
At last accounts General Hunter had
worked around into Brandwater basin in
the rear of the Beers, while General Hector
Macdonald and General Bruce Hamilton

of the railway mail service, with headquar-

charge of this new Chinese service and
will be stationed at Taku.
He is expected to sail from San Fran
cisco the first week Of August.
All mail for American troops will be for

1t Is important that all such mail be plain
ly marked with the number of the regi-

Francisco. Postal clerks will be stationed
at Nagasaki, Japan, where mail will be
transferred to transports for Taku.
At the latter place the mail will be turn
ed over to the army officers, at Taku

No Importance Attached Here.

The officials of the War Department do
not attach much Importance TO the civil
suit instituted against Colonel Amos Kim
ball L. S. A, assistant depot quartermas-
ter. in New York by the Philippines Com
pany to recover $4,000 said to have been
lost by 1t as a result Of an alleged con-
spiracy or combination between Colonel
Kimball and the Pan-American Express
COMPANY now the International Express
Company. II is asserted IN the quartermas-
ter generals office that the suit is nothing
but a quarrel between two contractors, one
of whom is aggrieved against the other be-
cause of his greater success in securing
government work. and that so far known
ii does not affect the official integrity of Col
onel Kirnball. No charges have been made
against that officer TO the War Department
and consequently the case calls for no Off
c!al action in It's present stage.
