Berlin, Sept lG.-The Reinish West
Phalian Zeitung, in an article dealing
with the South African situation, says:
I'VE hear that President Kruger whose

the powers, as only Great Britain would
get the benefit of such intervention"

The Alexander at Colon.

Colon, Sept. l6.-The Alexander Bixio
has arrived at Colon. The delay was due
to the fact that she was chartered at
Savanilla by the Colombian government
to convey 1900 troops with ammunition to
Rio Hacha.
On her arrival here September s a
Venezuelan squadron, consisting of the
Restaurador formerly the Atalanta) and
two other gunboats, were on the point of
bombarding the town. The French
cruiser Suchet had been protesting against
the bombardment and this had been post
poned for "a hours in order to allow the
foreign consuls and other noncombatantS
to leave.
During the interval the Alexander Bixio
arrived and succeeded in landing 1000
troops with ammunition at Rio Hacha.
This was entirely due to the protection
afforded by the presence of the Suchet,
which sailed for Curacao September g.
The remained of the troops were landed
at Santa Maria September 10. The Gen
eral Pinzon accompanied the Alexander
Bixio from Rio Hacha to Cartagena, and
is now at the latter port. General Alban
is on board.

HORSE DROPPED INTO A SEWER
Great Difficulties Encountered in Get
ting 1t Out.

While a team of horses owned by
Mason & Snowden, lumber dealers was
standing on Wood street. early Satur-
day morning, the driver was Mortified
to see the rear legs of one of the ami
mails suddenly drop through what a
moment before appeared to be solid
roadway. The horse was unable to ex-
tricato its rear legs and gradually the
forclegs followed.
In this position. almost perpendicu-
lar. the animal continued to descend
until the sewer. several feet below. was
reached Then it turned over and fell
upon its side The descent had been
as gradual and easy as If lowered bv
derricks from a horse ship. and not so
much as hair was injured.
The question now was how to res
cue the animal from its remarkable
situation. Great care had to be exer-
cised not to disturb the surrounding
earth, Whicn would have caved IN.
causing the smothering of the quad
luped. 1t was found impracticable to
rig up derrick and raise the horse
through the aperture by which it had
descended, because that opening, due
to the upright attitude assumed in
sinking. was not greater than four
feet square.
After puzzling over the enigma for
some time, and after various engineer
ing feats had been recommended by
the awe-stricken crowd. some one con-
ceived the idea of dragging the horse
down the sewer to the Lackawanna
river, half block away.
Accordingly the stones and other i'm
pediments, judged to be injurious to the
hide Of the animal in sliding along the
sewer basin. We're carefully removed.
Ropes were fastened around the ami
NAL by men in rubber boots. Then
with long pun and a steady pull the
helpless animal was started on it's re-
narkable slide to the river, where men
and beast triumphantly made an exit,
to the prolonged cheers of the multi
tude.
The horse got upon its legs. rather
stilf from lying in the water in an un-
natural posture so long. but otherwise
practically uninjured, excepting one OF
two abrasiOns Of the skin.
