WARREN THE mAN.
He It Il Whom the Beers Regard as
"the General"


New York, Jan. PA dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
General Butler found it difficult on
Sunday night to claim any marked sue
cess IN the British assault upon the
Boer WesternmoSt stronghold and Pre-
toria dispatches indicated that the
Dutch We're satisfied with their own
work.
The only satisfactory feature was the
proof offered by the light casualty lists
that the British soldiers were content
under prudent leadership to remain IN
der cover and to avoid reckless charges.
IheSe lists were not large in proportion
to the number of troops engaged, and a
considerable percentage of the officers
and men included in them were slightly
wounded. British soldiers were learn
ing to fight like Beers among the kOpjeS
and to takes heiter behind the bowl
ders.
An English South African. almost un-
r1Valled in experience and knowledge,
says that his hopes are centered in Gen.
Warren rather than Gen. Butler. He
says that Warren has long be9n known
among the Dutch as the general For
example, friend accompanying Cecil
Rhodes through the Barkley West dis
trict during his election tour in August,
1898, heard constant reference to the
general and asked who he was. Sir
Charles Warren, of course was the in
variable reply. Before Mr.. Rhodes had
foreseen and carried out the great
Warren had been preaching it to deaf
ears. His expedition through Bechuan-
aland in 1885, when the Beers were dis
putting over war northWard, was blood.
less. This was due to the dread which
his name inspired among the TransVaal
Dutch. He has had a greater eXper-
ience in South Africa than any other
British general and his column is the
only one that has attacked the enemy
in the BOer way among the powders
and kopjes, and taken advantage of the
cover offered by the rocks.
The plan on which the British troops
are now Operat ting was not heard of un-
til Warren's arrival and the compli-
ments SO freely bestowed upon the the
oretical brilliancy of Gen. Butler s
turning movement have been earned in
reality by the general who is carrying
out the new method of operations with
wariness and dehberation. Gen. War
rem is described as a man of military
genius, and as profoundly religious. re-
sembling in many respects Gen. Gordon,
and having a far seeing mind. He has
no social qualities, and it is probable
that his aversion for drawing rooms
gang for a stern, mystically minded
soldier of the Gordon type have stood
in the way of his promotion.
If Warren succeeds it will be the
most brilliant feat since the peninsula
campaign, and Gen. Buffers victory
will be followed by the complete caving
in of the Dutch forces, and the war
will virtually be ended; if the move
ment fails the fault will not be War
rens but the collapse of Buffers cam
paign will be most disastrous.

REFUSE TO TREAT.
Big Coal Companies viii Not Deal

Philadelphia, Jan PA special from
Scranton says: Officials of three of the
big anthracite coal companies have an
nounced that under no circumstances
will they treat with the United Mine
Workers of America. Their lead in the
matter indicates that q. similar position
will be taken by other corporations, the
coal carrying roads and the individual
operators. OF these companies, the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western and
the Delaware & Hudson are para

The Hillside Coal & Iron company
(prOperly the Erie railroad company

posed to dealing with the miners or
EaniZatiOn. They however say they
are willing to deal with any committee
of their own employees, provided such
committee comes to them when not
under the influence of any outside
agency.
The superintendents who take this
position are: E. E. Loomis, head of

New York Jan. A.-The stock market

of interest that many of the best people

of an increase for the third week of JAM

improved speculation in the stock of late

expressed that it should sell considerably

slight rally in wheat is being used as q

doubtful if many converts to that side
