BAD NEWS FOR BRITONs
IN ENGLAND AS WELL
AS IN SOUTH AFRICA
Floods Devastate Great Britain, and
Lord COIviIIe Is Stirring Up
Fresh Scandal Over the
Lind1ey Disaster.

NEW YORK, Jan. IA dispatch to the
Tribune from London says:
The first day of a disagreeable and dis
appointing year was most depressing.
Floods were clapping their hands north
and south and west from unceasing rains,
and the Birmingham canal was breaking
loose in Staffordshire and causing great
havoc. The war news was bad and the
war office management was worse Ad-
ditional details of the British reverse at
HelVetia showed that famous fighting
regiment bearing the names of glorious
battlefields on its colors had been sur
prised at night,when strongly entrenched,
and had lost one of its best guns in
surrendering it to the Beers. The fact
that the Beers invariably release their
prisoners does not render such incidents
less humiliating to British pride The bit
terest dregs in the cup for the English
lips throughout the campaign have been
the evil tidings that their best battalions
have been. entrapped, taken off their
guard and captured with their guns, and
there was a draught of this kind to leave
bad taste in the mouth at the end of
the year.
There was also a general feeling of eX
asperation over a fresh scandal almost
as bad as the publications of the Spion
Kop dispatches, which would inevitably
tions under the public pump. Gen. Col
vile confirmed the general impression
that he was seeking a trial by news
papers, by issuing yesterday a statement
and then reserving his case until Lord
Roberts return Military men shrug their
shoulders over his unprofessional conduct
in getting the public ear for himself and
scattering broadcast insinuations against
the general staff when Lord Roberts is
nearing the coast of England They are
inclined TO say with Corporal Brewster,
ut wouldn't have been done In the
days of the Dook.,' The spirit and
cogency of his defense are conceded, but
veterans consider it the worst possible
military form for Colville to rush into
print as though he were convinced that
the case against him had been closed,
and that he could not expect justice from
the war office.
Mr.. Broderick also is sharply criticised
for reversing Lord LansdowrIe s ruling,
but these structures are premature. It
is not yet known whether Lord Roberts
report on the Lind1ay nnair was filed
before or after Lord Lansdowne left
the war office. Mr.. Broderick's friends
say he has not made any attack upon the
court, since Gen. ColviIle has no special
influence there, although he has strong
circle of influential friends in the West
End and is a guardsman general.

FAMINE IN SIBERIA.
SITUATION IN VLADIVOsCOCK DIS
TRICT REPORTED SERIOUS.

ST. PETERSBURG Jan. IA dispatch
received here today from Vladivostock
reports that famine threatens the Amur
and maritime provinces. The corps there
are bad and the railways, being almost
wholly engaged for war purposes, cam
not be used for the transportation of food
to the inhabitants. In addition the pre-
hibition of foreign coastwise trade has
prevented imperations into the threaten
ed provinces. The situation is deplora-
BILE and becoming worse.
Count Lamsdorff. the Russian minister
of foreign affairs, who is at present at
Yalta, has teleerarhed to the United
States ambassador mere, Mr.. Char
lemagne Tower, hearty new years con,
gratulations. Mr. Tower, in replying.
reciprocated the compliments of the sea,
son and also expressed qualification over
the recovery of the emperor.
The news that China has acceded to the
demand of the powers is received joyful,
ly in all circles, official and unofficially
here. The press, which had steadily
prophesied tnat there would be no peace,
has thus far made no mention of the
news, but will probably find its tongue

SERIeUS In WESTERN PORTION
SEVENTY PER CENT OF THE Pop
ULATION AGAINST THE
ENGLISH
KNOX STILL CHASING DE WET
While a Boer Commando Picked Up
Few Prisoners From Nes-
bits Force of Brit
ish Horse.

LONDON, Jan. 2.-The Cape Town cor
respondent of the Daily Mail, which
dwells upon the gravity of the position
in Cape Colony, says: "The Boer invad-
ers now number $1,000 The western inva-
sion gives the most concern. 1t has split
into two divisions. which are moving
like the prongs of a fork, one by way of
Switzerland toward Malmesbury and the
other toward Beaufort West
The enemy are now ranging over
immense tracts of territory, necessitating
the employment of an army corps to
deal with them. Lord Kitchener has
poured troops into the disturbed areas,
but the fugitive tactics of the Beers
have to large extent neutralized his
precautions.
'It was~felt that the only means of
excluding the invaders from the rich dis
tricts in the western part of the colony
was to call out the farmers. Today's
kilograms promise a splendid response
from the eastern portion, but the western
is doubtful, not thirty per cent Of the
population being regarded as loyal.
Hence the Boer concentration in that
direction.
Letters are arriving here detailing
damage and robbery by the invaders and
beseeching military assistance. Any ac-
ton on the part of the colony will not
abate the urgent need of large reinforce
ments.'
'"rbe. aspect of affairs is scarcely less
gloomy says the Cape Town cores
pondent of the FINES, than at the bcgill-
ming of 1900 The invading Beers are
numerically fewer, but they have pene-
trated further south and their presence
in such centef of hostile Dutch feeling
as Graaf Reirte, constitutes an element
of danger which did not exist last Janu-
ary.
''The proclamation for volunteers comes
very late. The invaders have been en-
abed to obtain fresh horses. All the
horses in the colony ought to have been
commandered or bought at the first sign
of INVASION
The correspondent complains of the in
ertia and reticence of the authorities.
AFTER DE WET.
LONDON, Jan. 1.-Gen. Kitchener has
telegraphed to the war office as follows:
.'PretoFia, Dec, .31.-Gen Knox, who
has been following up De Wet, reports
that he has captured some horses, five
wagons with supplies and six thousand
rounds of ammunition. He has released
and allowed to go to their farms seventy
five Boer prisoners, who were taken at
De Vets laagar and who were being
forced to fight.
Gen. French recently captured twelve
prisoners and a large quantity of carts
and cattle. Among the prisoners was

CONSUMERS CAN SETTLE
TREATY OF PEACE BETWEEN AR
PUCKLE AND HAVEMEYER.

TOLEDO, o., Jan. 1.-The Times to-
morrow will say very substantial reports
are current that the coffee and sugar war
which has waged SO long and bitterly be-
tween the Arbuckle and Havemeyer in
terests is nearing an adjustment salts
factory to all parties.
For four long years the Woolson Spice
company has not made an advance in the
price of roasted coffee. 1t is now under
stood that tomorrow with an understand
ing with and the assent of, the Arbuckles
the Woolson people will order an ad-
vance of one half cent per pound on their
roasted product
Word also comes through private
sources that 3. H Howell & Co., of New
York, one of the largest concerns of its
kind in the country will tomorrow ad-
vance granulated sugar points, bring
ing it up to that now quoted by the
American Sugar Refining company, or in
other words, the Havemeyer interests.
Tonight an effort was made to secure
positive statements, either in affirmation
or denial from those who are naturally
supposed to be in a position to know
what is going on. James Secor of the
Woolson Spice company, was asked
whether the report of an advance was
true or not. He very courteously de-
clined to say yes or no to the inquiry. A
SlInlldf experience resulted from an at
tempt to interview Frederick Brigham,
secretary of the Woolson Spice company.
Other individuals, including attorneys,
who have been either directly or indi-
rectly identified with the recent some
what sensational litigation in the courts

would either give assent or denial.
