London. Feb. >, a. m.-Although there was
general tendency to discredit the telegram which
THE MaiI' published two days ago from Cape
Town stating that General Butler had addressed
his troops on Monday and had told them he
hoped to be in Ladysmith within week, 1t has
now received confirmation from three corre-
spondents at Spearman's Camp. Nobody has
however yet attempted 10 explain the state
r1ent. and it is not possible 10 form any opinion
to the direction in which General Butler pro-
poses to renew his attack But it is clear. if he
hopes to arrive in Ladysmith before next Mon
day. that he must get to work at once.
Rumors were circulated last night that Cen
eral Butler had again crossed the Tugela in
three places. but they were unconfirmed by any
official communication. Absolutely the latest
news regarding the situation in Natal is that
Lord Dundonald made a cavalry reconnaissance
TO HUngers Poort on Monday and found easy
facilities for crossing the river. Whether the
troops have actually crossed since Monday is
however, not yet known. l. N f.

REAL. MEANING OF THE DECISIONS IN THE
RARUs NINE CASES IN MONTANA

RARUS NINE CASES IN MONTANA.
Helena Mont Feb. | (SpeclaD.-A verdict
has just been rendered in the United States Dis
trict Court here in one OF the most celebrated
mining lawsuits on record. The was tried
before Judge Knowles and jury 1t was an ac-
ton bv the Butte and Boston Company. which
owns the Michael Davitt Mine, against the Rarus
owned by the Montana Ore Purchasing COM
pany which is controlled by F. A. HeinZe MT
Heinze bought he Rarus Mine for 100000 in
1895. The Rarus is the last extension of the
great Auaconda-St. Lawrence lode, and under
Heinze's active management the Rarus has been
developed until it is now considered $1OOO0OOo
copper mine
The Rarus lode dips under the Michael
Davtt owned by the Butte and Boston
Company, and the Pennsylvania, owned by the
Boston and Montana. After Henze had de-
veloped this wonderful mine the Boston people
claimed that the Rarus had no right TO follow
the dip of the lode under the Michael Davitt
and the Pennsylvania Injunctions and damage
suits were issued against the Rarus. and for
three years Helnze has been prevented from fol-
lowing his bodies the dip of the Rarus
lode. This, Rarus case started the biggest min
ing litigation that the United states has ever
seen, for practically all the great mines of Butte
are now involved in litigation and an army Of
lawyers and experts is engaged on both sides.
Last month Judge Clancy, of Butte. decided
that the Rarus had extra lateral rights under
the Pennsylvania and yesterday, by a unani-
nous verdict OF the jury, the RarUs was de-
cared entitled 10 follow the dip of its lode under
the Michael Davitt ground. Both decisions up
hold HeiuZe's claim for full extra lateral rights
IN this great mine The Amalgamated Copper
Company has been WaGnE this fight against
Henze and the Rarus, and these decisions. the
Rarus people assert. leave that company open to
enormous damages and costs. These decisions
are also in line with previous decisions of the
Supreme Court Of the United States. strengthen
ing the mine owners right TO follow his ore
bodies through the side lines of his claim.

Registered Mail Pouch Stolen in New

NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-It has become
known that five bags of registered mall
enclosed in one large pouch, were stolen
from station H, at the corner of Lex
ington avenue and East Forty fourth
street. on Monday night last. and so far
the postoffice inspectors have been un-
able to locate the thief, although sus-
picion has fallen on one man.
The pouch, which was so heavy that
only a strong man could move it, was
stolen before it reached the delivery
wagon and while 1t was still at the sta
ton. 1t had been checked off. sealed
and locked with numbered key.
With another pouch of registered
mall it had been deposited on the floor
near the employees entrance. When the
wagon called for it, Station Clerk Nath-
an discovered that it was missing.
Search in and around the station failed
to reveal 1t.
The payment on the checks contained
In the bag has been stopped. The
amount in cash is not supposed to have
exceeded $1,000, but the value of the
contents Of the registered letters, which
were directed to many parts Of the
globe, can only be guessed at.
