DEATH OF WALES BROTHER
Throws the English Nation Into
Mourning.

London. July 31.-The news of the
death of the Duke of Sake oburg-
Gotha, second son of Queen Victoria, has
created a sensation in London, as it was
totally unexpected. There were many
callers at Clarence and Marlborough
houses, and the Lord Chamberlain's Of
flee. Flags were half masted at the
Carleton, Reform. Sports and other West
End clubs.
The queen was deeply affected and the
Prince of Wales cancelled the arrange
ments for attending Goodwood today,
where his horse Lucknow was the favor
tie in the race for the stewards cup. At
Windsor there were many signs of
mourning, the bells in the curfeW tower
of ST. Georges chapel being tolIed. 1t
IS stated that the body of the late duke
will be embalmed and brought to Eng
land for inteIment and that it will lie
in state at Windsor
The dukes successor, the Duke of AL
bany, arrived in London this morning
The lord mayor of London sent a mes
sage of coincidence to the queen on be-
half of the citizens of London, express
ing the hope that the sympathy of the
nation would prove a solace and COM
Tort IN her bereavement
Numerous public and semi-public
functions have been abandoned and the
court and society will immediately be
ordered into mourning.

HELD AS HOSTAGES.
London's View Regarding tho Minis
ters at Pekin.


New York, July 31.-The effect OF all
the re-assuring dispatches from China
during the past "a hours, AYERS the
London correspondent of the tribune,
has impressed the members OF parma
ment with the fact that the survivors
were virtually held as hostages. 1t was
no longer asserted that the Chinese offl-
Gals We're lying in order to gain time
for insidious attempts to divide the
powers and for the removal OF the seat
of government from Pekin to Segan,
mountain stronghold far more lnacces-
Sible than Mr. Kruger'S Lydenburg in
the Transvaal
The theory of a small group of opti-
mists had suddenly been taken up by
the majority of the best informed men
IN parliament and in the clubs, namely,
that the legations after a siege OF sew
era1 weeks, during which many had
been killed and wounded, had passed
under the protection of the Imperial
government, which was holding the
survivors at it's mercy and endeavorlng
to induce the powers to suspend the ad-
vance of the army from Tien Tsin, and
to negotiate a settlement on the basis
of heavy financial indemnities-
There are many proofs that an au-
thOTity of some kind, with a powerful
will behind it, has been substituted for
anarchy. Viceroys and generals are go
ing up toward the capital with strong
bodies of Chinese soldiers, the governor
of kiang Su is marching NORTH Lu
Chuan Lin is approaching Pek1n ana
other generals are moving. The military
forces which were at Tien Tsin have re-
treated upon the capital and there is a
unity of direction in the Chinese coun-
ellis, with a distinct and determined eff
fort from Shanghai to Che Foo to hold
back the advance of the allies under
menace of the death of the survivors
at the legations. If nothing else be
plain in the Chinese maze, there are
cumulative proofs that a single will is
paramount at Pekin and that a definite
and positive policy has been adopted in
dealing with the powers.
One fact of supreme importance is the
helplessness of the legations if the Chi
nese government chooses to renew the
attack while the allied forces are
marching toward Pekin. In that sense
the ENJOYS are hostages, and the en-
press and the mandarins are making
the most crafty and desperate effort to
keep the powers out of the capital.

OCEAN FREIGHT RATES.
Prices Going Up Rapidly Owing to
Withdrawal of Ships for China

Houston, Tex, July 31.-George F. Spen-
Ger. general manager at Galveston for the
North German Lloyd Steamship company.
in response to inquiry as to whether the
ocean freight rates had advanced at Gal
weston to correspond with the advance at
New York, stated that they had advanced
much faster at Galveston and other Gulf
ports than at New York. The ship owners
are asking more all the time for their
ships, and it is difficult to find out what
the rates are likely to be for the coming
season. If the present trouble in China
is not settled soon the rates, he stated,
would doubtless be very high.
The Galveston ship brokers are not
quoting any rates at present though the
Texas grain crop is very large and is
moving to that port at a. rapid rate, and
will soon be followed by the Kansas grain
and Texas cotton crops

HUNTER THE HERO.
Capture of Gen. Prinsloo Placed to
His Credit

New York, July 31.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
The surrender of the entire force under
General Prinsloo was brought about after
an exchange of letters Generals Glenn
ents, Macdonald and Rumble co-operated
in this arduouS and brilliant campaign,
but General Hunter receives the credit for
the capture of this large force, and will
be one of the heroes of the war Com
mandants Prinsloo, Rondfourie and Col
bic are among the Boer leaders in the
Orange River colony who have sur
rendered. DeWet's is the only force of any
Importance still in arms in the colony, and
this is reported to be TIeld at bay near
Reitzburg by Colonel Broadwood'S troops,
with General Methuen marching from
Potschefstroom to complete the invest
ment.
A large British army will be released
in the eastern district of the Orange River
colony for final operations in the Trans
vaal.
The satisfaction caused by the surrender
of Commandment Prinsloo is clouded by
the painful recital of the correspondent of
the Daily News of the shocking manner in
which General Rundles men have been
starved during the campaign.

OVERHAUL THE REPEATER.
Fire Alarm Indicator to be Put in
Good Condition.

The fire alarm circuit repeater at fire
department headquarters will be repair
ed before it is placed in the new quar-
tiers at Seventh and Quincy streets.
The city fire alarm system is divided
into four circuits. When an alarm comes
in a certain circuit it is repeated four
times over all the circuits, each fire sta
ton being on a different circuit The
repeater is a very fine piece of mechan-
ism and cost when put in service in 1889
$780, 1t has received several severe
shocks caused by heavily charged cleo
trio wires crossing the fire alarm wires.
The repeater will be thoroughly over
hauled and many improvements added
and it viii go into the new station in
perfect condition. The machine has done
excellent service. In the new headquar-
ters arresters will be put on each cir
cult that will prevent any foreign cur
rent from wires or lightning. from COM
ing in on the repeater. The repairing
will be done at the factory at Boston.
