MANY COLONIALS
ARE CAPTURED
Serious Check to the British
Operating in South
Africa.

l. LONDON, June 16.-Lord Kitchener
has cabled from Pretoria under today's
date as follows: Near Welmansrust,
twenty miles south of Middlesburg, $50
Victoria mounted rifles were surprised
in camp at Steenkoolspruit by superior
force of Beers at 7:30 p. m, June 18th.
The enemy crept up to within short
range and poured deadly fire into the
camp, killing two officers and sixteen
men and wounding four officers and
thirty-eight men, of whom twenty
eight were slightly wounded. Only two
officers and fifty men escaped to Gen
eral Beaston's camp. The remainder
were taken prisoners and released. Two
pompoms We're captured by the enemy.
Full details have not yet been re-
ceived.''
The serious reverse which Lord
Kitchener reports is the first accident
of the kind that has happened to the
Australian contingent, and it is sup
posed to be due to neglect of proper
picketing. Although it is offset by the
defeat inflicted upon De Wet, the loss
of the guns is regarded as serious
matter, which will encourage the Beers
to continue the struggle
More or less fanciful accounts are
published on the Continent of alleged
peace negotiations, but there is nothing
in them, and nothing has come of the
interview between Mrs. Botha and Mr..
Kruger, beyond revealing the fact that
Mr.. Kruger will listen to no proposals
unless they are accompanied with a
guarantee of the independence of the
republics.
The Daily Mails Cape Town CORE
spondent says that Cecil Rhodes,
speaking at Buluwayo Saturday, pre-
dlcted that federation of South Afri
can States would come in three or
four years, but he contended that to
grant self-government to the republics
before federation would render fedora
ton impossible.

a termination of the war In Cuba for a
period of six months. Mr.. Woodford was
hopeful this would avert crisis in the
trouble between Spain and the United
States, but this hope was not realized.
as Congress soon after adopted the res
olutions of Intervention.
The peace negotiations both in Wash
ington and Paris are given in extense.
When the acquisition of the Philippines
came up Secretary Hay cabled Mr.. Day.
saying: 1.-THE sentiment in the United
States Is almost universal that the peo-
pie of the Philippines. whatever else be
done, must be liberated from Spanish
domination. In this sentiment the Pres
ident fully concurs. Nor can we permit
Spain to transfer any of the islands to
any other power; nor can we invite an
other power or powers to join the United
States in sovereignty over them. We
must either hold them or turn them back
to Spain. Consequently, grave as are the
responsibilities and unforeseen difficult
ties which are before US, the President
can see but one plain path of duty-the
acceptance of the archipelago"
Early in the war the State Department
directed our ambassador at London to
discreetly sound the British Government
upon war vessels using the Suez canal.
In reply it was stated that the British
Government held that we were unques
tionably entitled to the use of the canal
for warships. The declarations OF neu-
trallty by most of the foreign govern
ments, except Germany, are given, and
as to Germany, ambassador White gives
a conference with Baron Won Buelow In
which the latter says that Germany has
not for twenty years issued a proclama-
ton of neutrality.

The foreign relations with other coun-
tries during 1898 also are treated. Few
of the incidents are of Importance. It
appears, however, that Mr.. Sherman,
then Secretary of State, had a spirited
exchange with the Austrian Minister at
Washington. The latter had said that
his Government would hold the United
States Government responsible for the
rioting at Lattimer, Pa. Secretary Sher-
man took sharp issue with "the remark
able language" used by the Miuister,
and registered an absolute dissent from
some of his views.
Chinese affairs are treated only In the
initial stages of the trouble.

the Tribune from London says: The
Earl Russell case, which has beer
worked UP with secrecy in America By
an English solicitor, presents many an
omalies and complexities. Russell and
Mrs. Somerville were in the same posi-
ton, each having married in England
divorced in Nevada and then married
there. The defense will naturally be
that the divorce was obtained under
the Nevada law, and that he was free
to marry again. The work done by the
solicitor in America was not disclosed
today with the single exception that
Judge Curler, who performed the mar
riage ceremony, was announced as a
witness. 1t is suspected, however, that
evidence will be produced relating TO
the divorce obtained by Russell in Ne
vada. and an attempt will be made to
inyalidate it on the ground of irregu-
laritieS.
If the case actually reaches the Up
per House of Parliament on a question
of privilege this bigamy trial in its
broadcast aspects brings up the whole
question of the validity of American
divorces when Englishmen cross the
Atlantic for the purpose of evading the
English law and return with American
DEGREES as their ground of defense. It
is evident that the prosecution has pre-
pared itself for hard fight, and that
it has obtained possession of all the
facts respecting RusselFs marriage and
divorce in Nevada, and also full infor-
nation concerning the redent decisions
of the United States Supreme Court on
the subject.
Judge Curler has nothing to say re-
specting the Russell case, in which he
will be an important witness. He is a
bright and jovial American lawyer.

EARL RUSSELL CHARGED WITH
A BIGAMOUS MARRIAGE

LONDON, June 17.-Earl Russell was
arrested today on a charge of having
contracted bigamous marriage in the
United States. The Earl was met at
the railway station. on his arrival from
the country, by detectives with a war
rant and was taken to the Bow street
Police Court, where he was formally
charged. The prisoner appeared to be
quite unconcerned.
While Earl Russell awaited in the
ante-room the summons to appear be-
fore the magistrate, the woman whom
he married in America, joined him.
When the case was called, a represen
tative of the public prosecutor said the
prisoner was charged with feloniously
marrying Mrs. Mollie Somerville,
daughter of the late George c.. Cook of
Combernauld Scotland.
The prosecution proceeded to outline
the Earrs marriage to Mabel Scott (the
first Countess), the separation, his sub
sequent disappearance from England
with a neighbor, Mrs. Somerville, and
the discovery that he and Mrs. Somer-
vile were together at Reno, New. On
April II, 1900, Earl Russell obtained
license to marry Mollie Cook, other
wise Mrs. Somerville, in Nevada, and q
Judge performed the ceremony April
18th.
The counsel for the Earl pointed out
that the prosecution omitted mention OF
the divorce proceedings instituted by
his lordship in America. The Earl was
remanded in $4,000 bail.
In the event of a conviction the case
will be taken to the House of Lords, as
Earl Russell is entitled to trial by his
peers.
