DUTCH ARE BITTER
Lord Kitchener Acted UniustIy Tow
ard BED Cross Society.

The Hague, Nov. 1.-The report Of the
Dutch Red Cross society just published
deals bitterly with the capture of the
Dutch ambulance corps near Pretoria,
July 5, 1900. It declares the British knew
before the ambulance left Pretoria that
it carried private letters from Boer fami-
lies to men in the field and that they did
not protest, but allowed the ambulance to
start, captured it outside the town and
used the letters as a pretext for deport-
ing the doctors and nurses, who are still
in captivity on the island Of Ceylon. The
Red Cross committee subsequently persis-
tently appealed to Lord Kitchener to re-
deem his promise to Mrs. Botha and allow
the doctors and medicines to pass through
for the benefit of the Beers. but no re-
Spouse was made TO the representations.

lied by Six Men.

Matiock, IA, Nov. 1.-Early today the
Bank of Matlock was burglarized by six
men. who secured about 5000. OF this
amount $500 was in silver. Four of the
men stationed themselves so as to guard
all points, while the other two went in
side. They made free use of dynamite,
three heavy shots being fired. Many peo-
pie were awakened by the explosions.
The safe and vault were shattered and
the building badly wrecked. All the glass
in the windows was broken out and some
pieces of the safe foot square were
blown through the sides of the building
and into the street thirty yards.
An old man sleeping in an adjoining
building was compelled by the robbers TO
return to the house and keep still.
There is absolutely no clue and no effort
was made to follow the robbers, because
all were so heavily armed.
The total loss in money and damage to
the safe and building is over $4,000.
