FRESH ALARM IN CAPE COLONY. WHERE
A LOUD CALL FOR TROOPS IS HEARD.

LOUD CALL FOR TROOPS IS HEARD
London. Jan. 7.-This mornings news from
Cape Town is again unsatisfactory Martial law
has been proclaimed ct Malmesbury. and would
have been proclaimed in other districts but that
the Cabinet meeting called Saturday was unable
to agree to its advisa bility.
The vagueness Of the information concerning
the movements and position of the invaders has
sent a fresh cold Mt over the colonists. and
Cape Town calls loudly for strong reinforce
nlents from England the ground that the
greater part OF Lord Kitchener's available force
ia employed in protecting the lines of commune
cation and the Rand mines. the latter extending
for a distance of fifty miles
1t is asserted by one Cape Town correspondent
that unless the forces in Cape Colony are in
creased a most undesirable state of affairs may
result, as the success in arms Of the invaders,
however slight, might be the signal for a Dutch
rising. AS it is. many British residents have
had to leave the Dutch villages near Cape
Town, their lives being unbearable.
According to a native report. hundred men.
either Beers or local farmers. have just passed
through Clanwillam district in the direction of
Malmesbury.
The Cape Town correspondent of THE Daily
Mail.'' who calls for 10000 fresh troops, says:
Prominent Afrikander loyalists declare that
the rebellious colonists will construe the eoionlal
call to arms as a challenge and that the orll-
nous silence of the pro-rebels combined with
the fact that members of the pro-Boer Junta ln
Cape Town have been touring in the dlsa1-
fected districts, emphasizes the necessity ror
martial law. The necessity was never InoIe
acute for dispatching renforcements. Alreaay
there is proof that colonials are leading one
commando.
The military movements reported are quite un-
important. though Portugal is sending reinforce
ments to Lourenco Marques DR.. Leyds' ac-

one. He Is a man who has employed great many
laborng men In the last thirty forty years. and
IS not only respected but popular with the workls

himself a large property owner. and would natu-
rally have the interests OF the taxpayers at heart
Again. he has been successful business man IN
everything he has ever undertaken. and would
draw tremendously from the class and element q
people that Tammany Hall figures on for its main
support. He is a sterling Democrat, and. mind. as
New-YOFk Is q Democratic city. an independent
Democrat should be nominated. He IS prominent
In banking circles and Is member Of the Chamber

necessary 20 insure his election believe the
half. IL not twO-thirds. % the better element q
