ployes in the opera house. The con-
gested candition of the hotels and other
boarding places is the reason for this
unusual occupancy OF the opera house.

from the effects of poieon in his system
rs rapidly as desired. Boils have broken
out on various parts Of his body, which,
of course, are very painful, but the main
trouble is in his left leg, which is Cow
cred with cores, and upon which he
walks With great difficulty and suffer

mated from his system in this way, but
the process is exceedingly disagrecable..

ing by anything save the daily stock
exchange rumor, which happens to
have been started by the bulls, who
assert that Gen. Warren has captured

news is visible on all sides. The war

and the clubs and other resorts liable
to receive early news have been
crowded with eager inquirers.
4 Recognized Fact.
1t is generally recognized that the
Boer position, if ever taken, cen only
be captured at a tremendous cost.
A dispatch from Pretoria, dated
Tuesday, January 20, somewhat am
piifies the dispatch of Monday, Janu-
ary %, from the Boer head lager,
cabled Tuesday evening. 1t says:
-Four or five times during the day
the British replaced their wearied
soldiers by fresh ones. The Boer cas-
ualties to date are one man killed and
two men slightly injured. Our men are
slaughter of the British.
Gen. botha in Command.
"Gen. Hotha is now in sole com
mhnd. Gen. Cronje having been sent
elsewhere.'
The same dispatch, apparently re-
fcrring to the situation 1T Colenso.
says:
"One of the large Boer Maxims was
temporarily disordered, but was soon
repaired.
THE British northern camp is in
confusion. People are observed trek.
ing aimlessly in all directions"
Excitement ut High Pitch.
AS TIE afternoon progressed the ex.
element on Pail Mall reached a high
pitch. But the war office officials re-
itcrated, at 800 p. M, the oft-repeat-
ed statement that Nothing had been
received from Gen. Butler" The sus-
pense was increased by the belief that
Gen. Butler would never have pub
lished his intention 10 attack the Beers
ON Spion kop unless satisfied that the
assault would be carried out before
the news could be published, and it
was fully anticipated that the news of
his success Or failure would reach
in "a few hours at the most.

The st. James Gazette Says His Ad.

London, Jan. Accommodating on
Capt. Mahan's attitude, the ST. James
Gazette remarks:
"His advice is good and needed in
America. While strict nutrality is
maintained in the official world, and
good will for England is felt by the
better informed, it is simply mislead-
ing the public of this country to sug-
gesi, as some correspondents are do
ing, that antagonism to England is
confined to a negligible body of Amer
leans. The sympathy of America, as a
whole is. as a matter of fact. no more
with England at this than
was our popular sympathy with them
at the outbreak of the war with Spain,
and the contrast of official and popular
attitudes is no less marked in the
United States than it NJ, Germany"
