MIR CHAMBERLAIN EXPLAINS.
Reply to Attack in Commons on Con-
 duct of War.

Reply to Attack Tn Commons on Con-
 duct of War.
 London. Aug 16.-The waning ses- sion of the house of commons was en- Iivened yesterday by a vigorous tilt between Sir William Vernon -Harcourt, liberal. and MT Chamberlain, the col onial secretary, over Lord Kitchener's s proclamation Sir William character ized it as "a mischievous document, the inspiration of neither Lord kitch- ener nor Lord Miller, but of the min istry of Natal.'' He declared the gov ernment, in arming the natives, was reyerting to a practice which had left the darkest stain on the history of the war between England and America. The new policy of the government promised to be neither creditable nor effective and was in contradiction of all the fundamental principles of the St Petersburg convention. The coun- try would welcome an ante-adjourn- ment statement on the status of the war, on which they were still spend ing 5,000,000 pounds month, all though it was declared ended at the close of the last session.
 Mir Chamberlain said the war status was clearly indicated by Lord kitch- ener's weekly reports. He, himself, had gone out of the prophesying busi- ness but he assured the speaker that the governments attitude was the only method of ending the war. The col onial secretary declared that the use of native troops was no new policy. It had been pursued without adverse criticism. The Indian troops in China had been cooperating with the troops of five of the highest civilized powers.
 Regarding the banishment of burgh- CTS, MT Chamberlain said Great Brit ain had 'sa perfect right to enact what laws she chose for the government of country acquired by conquest The Boers must be taught that they can nc longer carry on q guerilla war at nc personal risk, while Great Britain fed their women and children
 He compared the conditions in South Africa and the Philippines and said the policy of America. as declared by General MacArthur's proclamation would certainly be the policy of Great Britain if the campaign degenerates into war of banditti. Regarding the devastation policy. MT Chamberlain said it was nothing compared with General Sherman himself and Sherman justified his action on the ground ot humanity.
 MT Chamberlain also said there was no foundation for the report that Lord Kitchener was coming home.
 | MT Chamberlain informed Sir John Rollston, conservative. that the GUS toms tariff of the Transvaal and the Orange River Colony had not yet been taken in hand, but there was no in tention of adopting system of pro tective discrimination against foreign goods.

HUMANE SOCIETY WORK.
Horses at the Wigwam to be Put in
 Condition.

Many complaints have been recent ly received by the Connecticut Hu- mane society about the poor condition of the horses that are being worked in the building of a dam at the Wig wam reservoir which supplies Water bury with water, says the Hartford Courant. Secretary Miller of the so- ciety went there Wednesday and found that the complaints were called for, ill, some respecs. He found sew eral horses win sores about their body, and he had to warn several persons not to load their wagons too heavily and he made three men lay off their horses for several days, as they were in poor condition and showed signs of suffering No prosecutions will be forthcoming unless the contractors there fail to carry out the orders of the Humane society. An officer of the Humane society went to Higganum Wednesday and investigated q com plaint against man named Butler for abusing his 15-year-old daughter and also his step-daughter,, who is young CT. Both children were committed to the Middlesex county home.

THE NEW YORK WAY.
Assistant District Attorney Sees De-
 Lacy's Place.


 Assistant District Attorney Gar van of New York city. formerly of Hartford, had little experience in connection with the new developments of bribery in the police department, which the Sun tells: When 1t occurred to Justice Jerome that he wanted Peter DeLacy to help corroborate the state ments of Edgar A. Whitney he asked Captain Vredenburg last Tuesday to go and find DeLacy.
 I'll go with you. captain" said As- sistant District Attorney Garvan.
 The two men walked through Frank lin street and got aboard a Broadway car. The car got blocked on the way downtown, MT Garvan jumped off and started downtown on a dog trot call ing to Captain Vredenburg to hurry up.
 Hold on,' said the captain; 'I'm an old man. I can't go like that"
 MT Gargan compromised on a mod crate walking pace. When they reHch- ed DeLacy's poolroom on the second floor. 33 Park Row, Garvan was still ahead. He found three men sitting at desk. One of them was writing in big ledger.
 T want that book" said Garvan. s'I'm an assistant district attorney" The man who was writing showed the book to the man next to him, who pushed it through hole in the wall to a man outside in the hall, through which Captain Vredenburgh was just coming.
 Arrest the man with the book, cap tain!' shouted Garyan. as he tells the story.
 T beg your pardon" said Captain Vredenburg, Were you speaking to meg'
 Arrest that manr' again shouted MT Garvan.
 "Oh, yes" said the captain, but the man with the book was then well out of reach.

MOSQUITO BITES.
Caused The Death of a Woman il
 Mount Carmel.

Mount Carmel.
 New Haven, Aug 16.-Mrs Barbera Ellen, wife of Joseph H. Leddy. resid- ing on Woodruff avenue. Mt Carmel, died Wednesday night from mosquito bites. The pest literally tormented her to death. Her body was so badly bit ten that she scratched the irritated sur face on her leg, finally opening vein with her finger nail, and she bled to death, despite the efforts of her rela- tives, and Dr Joslyn, of Mt Carmel. The pest of mosquitoes has been a gen. eral matter of talk, even in this city, and at Mt Carmel and other suburban points the miserable insects have fair " revelled. Mrs Leddy had complain ed of the torment, and seemed to be a special mark, for she was badly bitten time and again. She suffered from the irritation and became nervous. Her constant scratching finally brought about her death. Dr Joslyn was has, tily called at o'clock night before last and was told that the woman was ap- parently bleeding to death. He res bonded at once. but was unable to check the hemorrhage, and Mrs Leddy died at Il o'clock.

BRING NESS BODY HOME.
The Remains of the Once Famous Bill
 Hardist Now in Mexico.

The Remains of the Once Famous Bill E Hardist Now in Mexico.
 :. Nearly two years ago Frank Ives, the noted billiard player, died on board steamer as she was sailing into the harbor of Progreso, Mexico. Mrs Ives and Ora Morningstar had the body brought ashore and embalmed and were making arrangements to start home with it when they learned that, according to the peculiar law of that country, it could not be removed for two years. The two years will have expired on August %. Ex-Senator William H. Reynolds of Brooklyn, who was personal friend of the dead bill liardist, has sent Morningstar to Mex ico to get the body and bring 1t to Brooklyn. The remains will be in- tered in Greenwood cemetery, and MT Reynolds will have handsome monu- ment erected over the grave.
 Just before sailing on his trip to Mexico, in hope of regaining his shat tered health, Ives gave an exhibition at tie Borough Park club, Brooklyn, and although very feeble, made run of 1O3 at the balk-line game. This is said to be the last time that he han dled the cue.
