BRITISH REMoUNr SCANDAL.
Court of Inquiry Issues n WhItewash-
 Ing Report.

London, Oct. 9.-A blue book publish ed to-day contains the report of the court of inquiry which has investigated the charges brought against the re- mount establishment of the army. With the exception of a couple of minor cases, the report not only whitewashed all concerned, so far as the alleged ir- regularities are concerned, but finds that the unprecedented demands on the remount establishment were met with extraordinary success.
 The commissioners point out that the wastage of horses in South Africa reached the enormous rate of 12O per cent, and find that the system of pur- chase abroad met the requirements of the public service, but it would have been less open to. criticism if the re- mount establishment had utilized the assistance rendered by the British mill itary attaches at Washington and Vii enna. The commissioners express sat isfaction at the arrangements made for the conveyance of horses to and their accommodation at the various ports of shipment Attention is drawn to the excellent laws governing the transport of animals by rail in the United States and Argentina

 Justice, He said-Mayor studley Pres
 sides.
 The first big gun of the campaign was fired by the republicans at the Hyperion last night. The speaker of the evening was Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, secretary of the United States treasury. Theodore Macdonald, chairman of the republican town committee, called the meeting to ordr and introduced Mayor John F. Studley as the presiding officer. The mayor said that New Haven had been honored by the presence of many dis tinguished men within the past few months-the president of the United States, a justice of the supreme court and others, and tonight has the honor of greeting the secretary of the United States treasury, the Hon. Leslie M. oHdW. AS tue SeCfeldFy dfOSS dI ter the few words of introduction three cheers were called for and they were given with a will. ."s
 The 'secreatry is a very fascinating public speaker, being possessed with a touch of that personal magnetism and that fraternizing manner of delivery that has been the enviable possession of many of our public men. His address last night was replete with anecdotes, the recital of humorous incidents and at times display brilliant witticisms that substantially aided In holding the at tention of his audience until the last.
 H.. put his hearers in good humn" at the start by saying that he addressed many gatherings in Iowa and as he look ed over his audience last night it re- sembied an Iowa audience.

I would like to discuss the questions of the moment with people who were open to conviction, who had formed no opinion

NEW ORLEANS TROLLEY STRIKE
A Grave situatIon-Governor Heard
 Urged to Settle Trouble.

New Orleans, La, Oct. 9.-The New Orleans Railway company made no at tempt to resume their schedules for pas senger service and although no violence occurred the situation has become grave. Governor Heard arrived to- night and immediately consulted a number of gentlemen on the situation. He was urged by the business men to endeavor to settle the trouble without resort to the armed forces of the state.
 The strikers and their sympathizers massed on Canal street and Calves street to the number of 2,5OO and waited patiently all day for the first car to come out. Towards evening they grew weary of waiting and set upon two strangers who were sightseeing. The strikers took them for non-union men and beat them badly. Fifty non-union men from other cities have arrived and more are coming by every train. All the men wounded in yesterdays riot are doing well at the city hospitals. The mail cars were run as usual with out molestation.

SUIT AGAINST COAL ROAD.
Philadelphia NEnn Asks Permission to

Philadelphia Mnn Asks Permission to
 Use Authority of Pennsylvania.
 Philadelphia, Oct. 9.-Frank H. Thompson of this city, through counsel forwarded to Attorney General Eikln at Harrisburg petition asking permis sion to use the name of the common wealth in a suitIagainst the Philadel- phia and Reading Railway company to show cause why the company's charter should not be revoked. The gorund on which the suit is based is the alleged violation of the state constitution, Ar ticle r, second 5, which prohibits car rying company from engaging in min ing.
 The petition declares that the Read ing Coal and Iron company and the Temple Iron company and all their coal lands, leased or deeded. are owned or controlled by the Reading Railway company. It also charges that the Philadelphia and Reading Railway company has entered into an unlawful combination to regulate and fix the price of coal,' with the other so-called anthracite carrying roads. The Read ing is also held accountable in 8 large measure for the existence of the an- thracite miners strike.
 Suit was entered yesterday in the United States circuit court by MT. Thompson under the German act in which all the principal coal carrying roads are made respondents.

Germnn Press Irritated at Methods 10
 Reach the Kaiser.

German Prezs Irritated at Methods to
 Reach the Kniser.
 Berlin, Oct 9--It developed to-day that the Boer generals declined in a telegraphic message to seek presenta- ton to Emperor William through the British ambassador. and the fact has produced an extraordinary commotion among politicians and courtiers. No later than last Monday the foreign of- fee received message from the gen erals announcing that they had not the slightest objection to applying for an interview through British government channels, and it was even understood here that the government of Great Britain was willing tol countenance the interview. Whether that is true or not, the Pan-German committee in charge of the Boer reception was confident the generals would come with proper cre- dentials and hence have an opportunity for an audience. Then on Wednesday came q dispatch saying the generals were determined not to apply to the British government, but would leave the emperor to summon them himself. This, of course would have put his majesty in direct opposition to Great Britain, and the announcement imme- diately followed that the proposed in- tervew would not take place. The press to- day attacks the Boer generals in the slashing style which it had heretofore reserved for Colonial Secretary Cham berlain. Some of the newspapers op- pose the generals being allowed to come here at all and advocate the suppress sion of the proposed scenic reception, including girls crowning the generals with laurel wreaths.
 Various explanations are given of the Boers' motives. A favorite idea is that Dr. Leyds, who is called the "Boers' evil genius" devised the whole thing so as to strike back at the emperor for refusing to receive MT. Kruger. The reception committee is advised that the generals intend to come here as though nothing had happened, and any anti British demonstration now will tain ly be stopped sharply by the police, as official circles are -ery much annoyed at the Boers' behavior.
