NORFOLK, VA, March lit 10 the
Expressed belief tonight of strike-break-
e,., brought here by the Norfolk Railway
rnd Light Company in operating their
rars here, that the Norfolk strike has
1.iied.
These gentlemen say that when the
company advertised for men to fill the
strikers places. as they old this after
noon. that indicated that the strike was
practically over. They say that pre-
rious strikes, in which they have figured,
so died. The failure Of the strikers to
abide by the decision OF the arbitrators
cost them the sympathy of all law-abid-
ing people here, and the strikers. for
whose defeat all Norfolk is sorry, have
in the continuance Of the strike no sup
gort save from those whose adhesion to
their cause condemns it.
1t was demonstrated to-day and tonight
that the presence Of the troops is un-
necessary and it is anticipated that they
will begin probably tomorrow TO leave

authorities to furnish passports to go
through the British lines to Rev. Hiram
Thomas and wife, who desire Ito go to-
South Africa to distribute Boer relief
funds collected in lllinols s.s
Mr.. Hit of Illinois, hairman OF the
Foreign Affairs Committee, made
spirited reply to Mr.. Burleson, charging
the Texas member with attempting to
prejudice the case before the evidence
was in. II
Mr.. Burleson sent to the clerks desk
and had read a letter from John o.
knight, who came to Washington to Sc
cure the passports for DR.. Thomas, and
Mr. knight s letter stated that the funds
were collected in response to an appeal
by Governor Yates. He had gone TO. to
Secretary Hay, the letter said, with a.
letter from Senator Chllom, and the
Secretary of State had declined to make
the request Of Lord Papncefote on the
ground that such a REQUEST would be
considered .'meddlesomg and a. ''re-
missness of neutrality" and against the
Views Of President Roosevelt
If the facts stated In fh1S letter were
true, said Mr. Burleson, then the State
Department was so satltrated with pro-
British spirit that it could no longer re-
spond to the common dictates of human
ity when made in behalf Of the Boer
women and children
Mr.. Burleson said thae under date Of
March 4th another appeal had gone
from Mr. knight to Secretary Hay
without eliciting "a response.
Mr.. Burleson said his purpose in hav-
ing these letters read was to fasten the
attention Of the American people upon
the course of the State Department.

ROANOKE, VA. March IA niscre-
ant, white or colored is not known, made
a bold but unsuccessful attempt to assault
Miss Mary Eanes, the pretty seventeen
year-old daughter of e1-Constable John H.
Eanes, this afternoon. Miss Eanes was
alone at home, her mother having gone
out on a visit to a friend, when about
els she thought she heard rats after
some pet chickens in the cellar. She went
down, and as she opened the cellar door
and stepped in. a man stepped from be-
hind the wall and hit her on the side of
the face.
The brave girl exclaimed "Oh!' and the
man said sarcastically: "Oh, don't do
that" and attempted to catch her by the
throat.
She threw up her right hand and showed
him back, but not until he had cut the
sleeve OF her dress and scratched her arm
with what must have been a rough knife.
She stepped back, picked up an axe and
struck at him as he dashed out the door
and missed him, but cut splinters out of
the facing. The man ran through the pas
sage and into a room used as n wood
shed. jumped out of a window he had
raised, ran out into the garden, jumped
over fence and disappeared.
Miss EaneS did not lose ner nerve LOT
d moment She ran to a door and called
to neighbor who was passing. who came
in. and later a policeman. who examined
the premises. The young woman says
the man had a red bandana over his face.
but she cannot tell whether he was white
or black. "All ] wish.' she said tonight
to Tho Times correspondent, lis that !

The news of the attempted assault did
not get out until late, and there is no
excitement as yet.
