That such humane action is strenuousIy called FOR
is confirmed by the accompanying letter from Clara
Barton addressed from the United States
steamship State or Texas, AT Key West Fla dated
May . 1898. aftervqrd published IN our Dumb
Animals Boston. June. 1855. Miss Barton writes:

CAsTELLANE ON AMERICA
Draws an Analogy Between British and
 American Imperialism

Paris, March 2-(4:50 a. m.)-Count Boni de Castellane has an article in the Gaulos today, evidently inspired by his recent visit to the United States, and entitled "The Two Imperialisms,' in which he draws an ana 1ogy between British and American im- perialism. After pointing out the Amerl- cans have taken sides over the Transvaal, he says:
 eff imperialism should triumph definitely in the United States, the Latin, Germandc and Slavonic nations would have to defend themselves in the future against a union of an the Anglo-Saxon forces"
 In concluding the article. the count says: "I pretend neither to criticize nor to teach. I speak as a F'renchman who 6oresees great rule for the United States dn the future and who wishes this immense force to act in accord with France and not against her. I speak sincere admirer of the country, of it's progress and its truly democratic institutions, and finally as man profoundly touched with the hospitaii- ty this great and munifcent nation accords to all those who visit 1t as friends. May the future show us union of two demo- crtacies and not two imperlalisms."

STARTED UP AFTER
 4 LONG IDLENESS The Bessemer Rolling Mill Again
 in Operation START MADE YESTERDAY
Williamson Furnace Ready to Blow In Steel and Wire Mill at Ensley
 Will Soon Start Up Industrial Notes

The Bessemer rolling mill, which for the past eight or ten years has served only as an ornament ito the Marvel City, was started up yesterday, the first run being made about Il o'clock The mill is not now run to its full capacity, but will be by the first of next week.
 The Bessemer rolling mill was purchased from the Adler Brothers, of this city, about month ago by the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, though at the time of its sale neither the Adlers nor the off, ficials of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Rail- road company would make any statement bearing on the matter.
 The mill has recently been thoroughly overhauled and put in first class condition
 Industrial Notes
 The repair work on the Williamson fur mace at Fourteenth street has been prac- tically completed, and as soon as a supply of ore and coke can be secured, it will be put in blast. The owners of the furnace expect to be able to sart 1t sometime dur dng this month.
 The plant of the Alabama Steel & Wire company at Ensey will probably be start ed up by the latter part of next week. The machinery is all in place, and the connec- tions have nearly all been made.
 Work on the Dimmick pipe plant at north Birmingham is progressing very satisfac- torfly, although 1t has been somewhat re- taFded by the recent bad weather The plant will probably be ready to go in op- eration some time in April.

Spencer Wilkinson's Views

London, March 2-Spencer Wilkinson in the Morning Post. says:
 Lord Roberts has taken the true meas ure of the Boers, and has thereby shown 1pis mastery of what Napoleon called the divine part of the art of war.
 ''No doubt the chapter oftBritiSh reverses hs mot closed. He would be bold strat- egfst who could now offer to the Boer leaders a plan of campaign promising ulti- mate success.
 ''Lord Roberts will sbon have a force of 60,000 men The Boer commander-in- cfldef cam now hope for but little from strategy. On his interior he is not strong enough, which contains one British army to strike with effect against the other. He may possibly attempt to hold General BuEer at the passes leading out of Natal, where small force, at some risk to itself, can cause considerable delay Meantime he may gather hl5 forces in ISle Free State for resistance to Lord Roberts.
 If Lord Kitchener is ait Arundel it would seem to imply an interition to restore the mandant Dutoit has crossed the Vaal n.yer alt Fourteen Streams accounts perhaps for portion of General Cronjes army and portends further trouble for Mafeking.
 Ut looks possible that the Boer forces may now collapse altogether, although that must not be counted upon. Lord Roberts, however, will soon have troops enough to deal with amy guerrilla warfare and, alto getiher, there is no need for further un- easdness."

British Were Stupid

Paardeberg, February 8.-Commandant Albrecht describes the British strategy up to the battle of Magersfontein as-'stupid and almost insane" He says there were only 4OOo men in the Magersfontein trench es, and that only half of these were en- gagged In actual fighting. He praises the strategy of Lord Roberts. but says that the war is by no means ended, as there still remains 75,0OO republicans in the field General Cronje's surrender, according to Arbrecht, was due to blunder in locking up his men in hole instead of occupying kopjes."
 Commandant Welmarns, however. con- siders 1t hopeless for the Boers to continue fighting in the present circumstances.

In the house of commons the war was not mentioned until o'clock, but the house was crowded and there were evidences of strong sup pressed feeling. Finally a member rose and asked if any official news had been received from South Africa that had not been com municated. Amid a profound hush, MT. Balfour rose, holding a slip of paper and Tead General Buffers dispatch from Neel- thorpe, beginning: "I have just returned from Ladysndth." The whole house burst into great shout of joy, followed by pro- longed cheers. Then, waiting only to hear the remainder of the dispatch, the members poured into the Hobbies, talking exeitedly of the event. The few who remained laughed heartily as Major Frederick Rasch, con- servative member for Southeast Essex, ask ed whether the war office with its usual in- genuity had celebrated the event by having the flag all day at half-mast.
