KAFFIRS THREATEN
SOUTH AFRICA
Gen. Botha Sees Danser-Thinks the
Beers Should Have an Independ-
ent Parliament.

VIENNA, Aug. 23-The Fremden-
blatt today publishes an interview
with an Australian who travelled from
South Africa to England on the steam
er with the Boer generals, Botha, De-
wet and Delarey. The Australian is
credited with saying that in CONVEX
sation Gen. Botha said to him:
1T is probable that England has no
need to fear further trouble from the
Beers, but the civilization of South
Africa is threatened by the Kaffirs.
England armed these savage, brave
but untrustworthy tribes to fight for
her. Now the war is ended and the
Kaff1rs have not returned their arms,
but have retreated with them to mae
cessible places in the mountains, where
they are reported to be engaged in
daily shooting exercises and prepara-
ton for war. Unless the English au-
thorities display the greatest energy
the Kaffirs are likely to cause trouble"
Gen. Botha said that Englands best
course would be to grant the Beers
an Independent parliament. This was
the only possible means of securing
the peaceable development of the
country.

READVILLE, Mass, Aug. 23-With'
circuit meeting at the Readville track
ended today. The great feature was
Dan Patch'S mile in 2:00A in his eff
fort to break Star Pointers figure of
1:59A on this track five years ago to-
day. Dan Patch made a great bid in
his first heat to get inside the record,
going the half in SO seconds fat, and
then breaking. Driver McHenry i'm.
mediately pulled up the PAGER, driving
him home at q jog. In the second at
tempt the gelding paced the mile in
2:00A, breaking his own mark by half
a length. Dan Patch had to face a
cold, strong wind part of each mile.
He was started out with two running
horses for pacemakers. After the first
mile Driver McHenry said that the
horse started away at a terrific clip
and was well settled into his stride at
the half mile. Just beyond that point,
McHenry said, the PAGER struck the
going to the first break he has ever
made when at speed.
On Dan Patch's second attempt he
was a second and a quarter behind his
first trial at the half. He came home
at what looked a record breaking clip,
but the judges said the time was
2:00A. The time by quarters: First,
50; half, 1:00A; three-quarters, 1:3oA.

WILL BE TAKEN TO COURT.
Fight for Control of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company.

Denver, Aug. 22.-The resignation of
Messrs. Gates, Mitchell, Blair and
Lambert as directors of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron company. as announced
by John W. Gates at midnight, were
sent to the headquarters of the COM
pany shortly before the time for the
annual meeting, but no action was
taken by the board as there was no
meeting.
1t is the opinion of attorneys that
under the law of Colorado the four
men named are now out, as it is not
necessary for any further action to be
taken on the designations. The move
ment was made in order that Gates
and his friends might occupy a better
strategic position in the great fight
now under way to secure possession of
the management Of the company.
The Osgood management remains
intact until an election is held and if
the stock book is to be prepared be-
fore the election takes place, as an
nounced by Chairman Osgood, several
months more may elapse In the
meantime Mr.. Osgood and his support
ers will spare no efforts to secure pos
session of as many as possible of the
proxies now held by Gates. A big bat
tie in the courts is expected and the
best legal talent will be invoked by
both sides.

SHORTS AGAIN SQUEEZED.
September Corn Advances Five Cents
in a Few Hours.

a. . .. 3D..
Chicago, Aug 22.-Shorts in the
corn pit here were squeezed badly and
raised a tumult that closely resembled
the recent scrimmages when John w.
Gates and his clique of New York bulls
had July corn cornered. The action in
the pit was largely the result of the
earlier manipulations. When the
Gates crowd was pushing prices sky
ward the farmer took hand in the
business by sweeping his bins clean of
corn and flooding this market with
millions of bushels. AS a result the
cornG collapsed and prices fell head
long until September corn recently
sold at SO cents From rampant bulls
the crowd had turned bears to man
and sold short many bushels. Now the
corn to fill September contracts is not
In sight. The bad weather has re-
tarded the maturing of corn crops un.
til there has been talk that crops may
not be harvested until hurt by frosts.
Under such conditions shorts want to
cover their contracts, but holders of
the grain are 10th to sell. s@
At the opening of the days trade
everybody turned bulls. English mar
kets were advancing strongly. Cash
stuff was leaving this market at
good premium over September options
Stocks Of contract corn on hand were
rapidly diminishing. There seemed no
relief for the shorts other than get
ting stuff in the pit at the best figure.
AS a result almost cents was added
to the price during the morning. ~

Wilmington, Del, Aug. 22.-Eleven
persons dead two of those in the hos
pital so seriously injured that little
hope is entertained for their recovery,
six still missing and whose bodies are
supposed to be in the ruins, is the
result of the terrible explosion at the
Delaware pulp works Of the Jessup &:
Moore Paper company in this city late
Wednesday afternoon.
James Jester and George Durham,
both employed in the digester room,
where the explosion occurred, died
during the day.

p On the upper floor of the plant were
huge tanks of acid, and when the ex-
plosions came these tanks were
broken, allowing the acid to flow all
over the building.
The men who were instantly killed
were covered with the burning fluid,
and those who were simply injured
writhed in agony as the acid envel
oped their bodies.

building. Twenty or more men were
at work when the first explosion came
and some of them managed to escape
before the second explosion liberated
the acid and set fire to the building.
There were two terrific reports, one
coming a few seconds after the other,
and the next instant the building and
other mills about the structure were
wrecked.
One digester was blown into the air
and fell to the ground $50 feet away.
A dense volume of smoke for time
prevented the outside workmen from
going to the rescue Of those who were
caught in the ruins of the falling build
ing. An alarm OF hre was sounded
and the entire fire department of the
city and large force of police were
soon on the ground. The work of res
cue was Immediately begun.
Several of the workmen were taken
out unconscious, only to die after be-
ing removed to hospitals.
The wreckage was piled up for more
than thirty feet and the escaping
steam made the work of rescue diff

The men who were not killed out
right were mangled and burned by es-
Gaping acid that flowed over the bod
les from the broken digesters.
