NOTHING TO MATCH IT.
London Paper Declares That Mortality In
South African Camps Il Worse
Than India Famine.

London, Nov. L-The Daily News
extensively surveys the concentra-
ton camps in South Africa with the
following conclusions: "The truth is
that the death rate in the camps is
incomparably worse than anything
Africa or Asia can show. There is
nothing to match it even in the NOR
tally figures of the Indian famines,
where cholera and other epidemics
have to be contended with" Statis-
tice are produced in proof of this as
sertion.
The governments advertisement for
teachers for the camp children, set
ting forth that the "term of employ
ment will be one year certain" is
prominently displayed as evidence
that the authorities have no inten-
ton of ending the wholesale destruc-
ton of life The News urges all
humane men not to wait for official
reports but to insist "on the camps
being broken up and the people dis
tributed among their friends or re-
moved to districts where fresh at
tempt can be made under competent
organization and with some regard to
the preservation of nfezthat. or ex-
termination and. an eternal stain on
the name of England"

INSISTS ON FIRST PLACE.
ument at Canton Should Have RiSht-of-
Way In Popular Subscriptions

Washington, Nov. "a considerable
portion of the time of the cabinet
Friday was devoted to talking over
plans of the National Mckinley Me-
mortal Arch association. Before the
cabinet met formally Senator Hanna
discussed the subject with the presi-
dent and cabinet. He explained the
necessity for absolute harmany be-
tween the association of which he is
trustee and the Mckinley Memorial
Arch association of this city, but
urged that in seeking popular sub
scriptions the former organization,
which plans the erection of suitable
monument at Canton, should have the
right-of-way. Senator Hanna thought
about $750,o00 should be used in the
erection of a suitable monument.

GOT THE SHERIFF.
By Strategy Escaped convicts Cap
tured Shawnee County Officer.
sxney Used Him as q Shield and Threat
ened to XIII Him If a Shot Was
fFired-W ere Permitted
to ESCAPE.

o Topeka, Kan, Nov. 1.-Two Of the
convicts who escaped from the fed
eral penitentiary at Fort Leaven-
worth Thursday captured Porter S.
Cook, the sheriff of Shawnee county,
yesterday afternoon and kept him
prisoner in a farmhouse until night
Topeka policemen, deputy sheriffs
and farmers at bay, and finally made
their escape while the posse looked
on. Before they took the sheriff he
and his deputies shot at them,
wounding each. one in the leg and
-Ghe other in the arm. Before the
fugitives made off they sought to get
even by shooting the sheriff, but the
gun missed fire and Cook lives to tell
the tale
It all occurred near Pauline, little
town six miles south of here on the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe road.
About noon some boys who were
Hunting saw two white men skulking
I'm the timber. They wore citizens
clothes, but the boys knew of the es-
cape of the convicts from the federal
penitentiary, and judged from the
conduct Of the men that they were
two of the gang. The boys fastened
to town and told the story, and at
once the information was telephoned
to Sheriff Cook in Topeka.
When Sheriff Cook received the
message he and Hall Williams. the
Ounder sheriff, drove in a buggy to
Pauline. They soon located the con-
victs and opened fire upon them.
Their guns were ofsheavy caliber and
the convicts fed. The officers pur-
-su1S@ following them into an orchard
on tia farm of a man named Worces-
ter. Beyond the orchard is Worces-
ter's house, toward which the men
were running.
Here Cook lost sight of them and
he entered the house to make inquiry
of Worcester, whom he knows very
well, but instead of Worcester, one
of the convicts came to the door, and
IN a moment Cook was a prisoner and
,1isarmed. Cook was taken SO COM
pletely by surprise that he made no
resistance and after the convict had
taken q Winchester rifle and a So
caiber revolver from him he was
forced to sit on a chair while the con-
vict stood over him with the revolver
he had captured. Close by Worcester
was seated, guarded by the other con-
vict. There was little necessity, how
ever, for Worcester to be guarded,
for he had been desperately wounded.
When the convicts ran into his house
he reached for a shotgun and one of
the convicts beat him over the head
with gun. He was also wounded in
the arm and his condition is so bad
that a surgeon has been sent from
here to dress his wounds.
The convicts made their escape
from the house through the lines of
policemen by shielding themselves
behind the farmers wife and Sheriff
Cook, holding pistols to their heads.
Sheriff Cook ordered the policemen
not to fire. The convicts marched
down the railroad track and disap-
Deared into a cOrnfield.
