BRITISH LANDING GUNS.
Situation In Cape Colony Grows
More Serious.

Cape Town, Jan. 3.-The British bat
tleship Monarch landed guns today as a
precautionary measure. The situation is
undoubtedly serious.
1t is true that the Dutch have not join
ed the invaders in any considerable num-
bers, but lack of arms is believed to be
the true reason for abstention. In many
places horses are freely offered and infor-
nation readily supplied to the Beers.
The early proclamation of martial law
in the Cape Town division is expected.
This division does not include Cape Town
itself.
The latest reports show the situation to
be generally as follows: Thurman if still
unnvested probably soon will be. Gri-
qualand West is filled with small parties
of Beers who are working south toward
Prieska for the purpose of cooperating
with or supporting Commandant Hertzog,
whose advance parties are in the neigh
borhood of Fraserburg
The Beers are close to GRAF Reinet,
where of late the Dutch have given many
demonstrations of extreme sympathy.
In the eastern part of the colony the ad-
vance guard of Beers is close to Marais-
burg, about % miles northeast of Grad
ock.
The general opinion here is that the po-
sition is not properly appreciated in Eng
land. The Worcester conference excited
the Dutch throughout the colony. Many
old residents who are by no means alarm
lists regard general uprising of the
Dutch as quite likely.
The Beers commanded by Hertzog,
Vessels, Pretorius and Nieuwenhaut are
@l~.. IFxoc ntlt.
1t is reported that they have arrived at
Spionberg.
Looting continues. The Boer horses
are foot sore, and there is great want Of
fodder, as the country is barren.
Communication with Fraserburg Is sus-
pended, and it is doubtful when this will
be restored, inasmuch rs the Beers are
travelling along the line. Colonel Thor
neycroft and Colonel De Lisle are con-
tinuing the chase, but their horses and
mules are very tired.
The Beers captured and destroyed the
mails due Dec. 80.

scarcity OF Rolling stock.

New York, Jan. 3--The Commercial
Advertiser says The locomotive works
as well as the car shops in this country
are overwhelmed with orders. Presi-
dent Galloway, Of the New York Cen
trail railway. says he is having difficulty
in arranging for delivery of new loco
motives, urgently needed for the Can
trail system, before next fall. As many
as possible of the new locomotives att-
thorized by the board OF directors are
to be made in the New York Central
shops. Railroad men generally are
complaining of the scarcity OF freight
cars and the lack of motive power
Western lines are constantly calling
on their eastern connections for more
cars, but the eastern lines are un-
able to comply with more than half OF
these requests.

In spite of the two fortunes which
have been offered for the arrest and
conviction of the kidnapers. their Sc

Witten today stated positively that he

Friday after the kidnapping. He does

declined to confirm the report Of the

that Miss Wendell was incompetent

potency was the result of either lunacy
