CLOSING IN ON BOTHA.
British Troops Said to Have
Boer General Corralled.

New York, Got. 14.-In explanation of
the statements of some of the London
daiIies concerning the war in South At
xdca the London correspondent of the
Tribune cables as follows:
The Standard thinks that the British
troops have good chance of capturing
General Botha- Very little is known
here in regard to the movements of the
Roer commandant general since the
failure of his attempt on the Natal
frontier. His wagons, with escort.
under Grobelaar, have been detached
and sent eastward. Botha with his main
body marched in the same direction for
some time only to find that his retreat
was being cut of by one of the British
columns, which was apparently moving
parallel with him He then marched
due north to within few miles of Piet
Retief where he is believed to have
halted in a difficult and perilous posi-
ton. He can not break back toward
Zu1uland or the Natal frontier without
throwing himself right into the arms of
his pursuers. If he goes north he will
touch Swaziland, and will get into trou-
BILE with the warlike natives. He mi y
possibly drift away toward the west
and find a temporary refuge in the
passes of the E1andsberg. On the whole,
the Standard considers that the Trans
vaa1 army is in tight corner. The
Daily News on the other hand, takes
the view that General Botha has got
clear away.

ROBBED OF BIG SUM.
Railroad Employe Purloins $4,000
Bonds and Jewels From Trunks.

Ithaca, N. Y, Oct 14.-Charles Nor
ris, a Lehigh Valley car inspector, has
been arrested charged with the robbery
of trunks of Mrs. Denman Thompson,
wife of the actor, and Mrs. Franklin
Thompson, her daughterin-law, here
in Ithaca on the evening of October
3 He confessed to having committed
the deed and valuable to the amount OF
$50. 900 were recovered.
The Old Homestead company came to
ithaca on October 2 They had trunks
which contained $50, 900 worth of dia-
monds chiefly Pullman company GER
tificates, made out in the name of Mrs.
Martha Thompson. Another trunk be-
longing to Mrs Franklin Thompson
contained the greater part of the jew
elry stolen.
Norris, who has access to all cars,
entered it while the play was in pro
gress Friday night. He picked the locks
and rif1ed the contents and left the car
without disturbing it's appearance. The
company of actors remained in Ithaca
until Saturday morning, when they left
for Albany. Norris has been generous
with much of the property He dis
tributed small trinkets among his lady
friends two of whom had large Quanu-
ties in their possession, and when the
loss was discovered it was easy to trace
the property.

New York, Oct IA London dispatch
to the New York Times quotes the Lon

San Francisco. The London Times says
is sympathizes with the bishops in the
difficulties which they and the clergy
throughout America have to encounter.
The condition of the marriage laws is
a subject wherein enlightened Ameri-

though they may justly retort to critic

: THREE LIFE GOVERNORS
Have Rights in De Beers Min es
Worth S75O.OOO q Year

New York Oct Accommodating upon
the DeBeers mining situation the Tri-
bune's London representative says that
Messrs Rhodes, Wernherr and Belt,
Diamond mines. are entitled to one
fourth of the net profits after Sc per cent
has been paid by the company in any
one year.
These rights die with the holders, and
it is now proposed to commute them by
the payment of an enormous sum.
Among stock exchange men the PROPOSE
ton is meeting with good deal of ad-
verse criticism Not one of the three
governors is a good life from the point
of view of an insurance company, and
the rights are worth $75O,000 a year to
them at present.

Correspondence of Associated Press-]
st. Petersburg, Oct. Am interest
ing case affecting the military has just
been reported here and is causing con-
siderable comment in the Russian pa
pers.
On April 80 Lieut.. Klykoff of the Thir-
ty-seventh dragons and a certain no
bleman Malinkoffsky had an exchange
of words in the local geological garden
Lieut.. .Klykoff placed his hand on the
handle of his revolver and ordered NAL
inkoffsky to desist from addressing
him. Malinkoffsky did not at once obey
and the lieutenant drew his weapon
and after a scuff1e fired three times.
Malinkoffsky died from the effects of
one of the bullets. Klyboff has been
tried in military court and condemned
to year and a half imprisonment The
court itself petitioned the emperor to
reduce the sentence to two months ar
rest in a fortress. The case has caused
much comment in the newspapers. The
m ilitary party declare that the wearing
of the uniform necessitates officers de-
Tending the honor of the entire officers

plies that it would be better to permit
officers to wear civil clothing when off
