A HOT ENGAGEMENT.
Beers Fight Vain Battle From Behind Their
Dead Animals
(By the ASSOCIATED Press.l

10y the Associated PreSS)
London. Feb. 27.-The attack made by
the Beers to rush the outpost line near
Bothasburg, Transvaal colony, during
the night of February %, reported in
General Kitchener's dispatch yesterday
was most determined. The Beers were
led by two well known fighters, Ross
Hands and Mamie Botha When the
Beers realized that their attempt to act
ually break through the wire fences was
frustrated they crouched beside the cat
tie killed by the British fire and with
which the ground was thickly strewn,
and from that defense poured a heavy
fire on the British troops. The fusillade
was steadily returned, and finally the
Beers were driven back, leaving fifteen
dead and six wounded on the field. They
also left ITO dead and wounded horses
and the entire herd of six thousand head
of cattle.
The Colonial Secretary, Mr. Chamber
lain, made an interesting statement in
the House of Commons today, to the
effect that the proclamation providing
for the Punishment of the Boer leaders
did not preclude 1ord Kitchener or Lord
Miner from accepting the surrender of
Boer leaders on modified conditions
Lord Kitchener, on his own authority
had already accepted the surrender of
some of the minor leaders on the under
standing that the provision of the ban
ishment would not be enforced.

HE TAXES DINNER AT THE WHITE HOUSE
An Incident at Mount Vernon Shows His Keen
Sense of Humor, Another at the Ger

Democratic Manners.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, Feb. 27.-The second
chapter in the national capitals well
come to Prince Henry of Prussia began
today. Arriving at O'Clock this morn
ing he and his suite at noon attended
the Mckinley memorial services at the
Capitol, and at their conclusion made a
flying trip to pay tribute to the memory
of the father of his country at Mount
Vernon. He was the guest of President
Roosevelt at dinner at the White House
tonight.
A crowd OF several thousand people
had gathered at the depot this morning,
but there was no cheering
At the German Embassy a large crowd
also had gathered. At 9:15 o'clock the
cavalry escort consisting of Troops It
ana G, Second Cavalry gaIloped up
Massachusetts Avenue and swung into
battalion front facing the embassy.
Prince Henry drove in an open carriage,
nodding and smiling in recognition of tho
applause and returning each military
salute. On the threshold of the embassy
the Prince paused and facing the Ions
lines of troopers with saluting sabres
and the knots of ladies, who had braved
their way through the lines, gave a
sweeping bow as he turned and went in
side.
During the morning Prince Henry re-
eeived Bancroft Davis, who was United
States Minister at Berlin while the
Princes father was Emperor: Fl. c.
Chatfield- Taylor, of Chicago, and others
AS the Prince was about to start for
the Capitol an incident occurred showing
his democratic manners. When he came
down the Embassy stairway, heavy set
young man with German features, push
ed through the brilliantly uniformed
throng and saluted Immediately in front
of His Highness. The unexpected visit
tor Henry William Haschenburger, of
Baltimore, explained that he had served
for seventeen months on the German
cruiser Irene while Prince Henry COM
manded the ship. AT considerable risk
he had overcome all barriers and was
within the private quarters of the En-
bassy Prince Henry seemed to enjoy
the sailors enthusiasm. He remembered
his service and greeted him most cor
daily. Then His Highness stepped in
to the waiting carriage, and with cheer
from the crowd the party started for the
Capitol, preceded by the cavalry escort.

SHOT THE CIRCE AND HIMSELF.
Infatuation That Led to Shame Ends in Death
For Both Man and Woman
(By the Associated Press.

, Pittsburg. Feb 27-The mad infatua-
ton of a married man for woman other
than his wife which has been on for sew
eral months ended at IL O'Clock TINS
morning in house at sos Watson street,
Pittsburg, when William A. Rinard, a
steel blower of the converting mill at
the Edgar Thompson Works. and one OF
the best known men in Braddock, shot
and killed Margaret Lambert or Wilbcrt,
formerly of London England. A second
or so later Rinard placed the revolver
to his own head and breast and killed
himself
1t all happened in the space of two
minutes. although the circumstances
which led to it cover a period of months.
The story of the events leading up TO
the shooting reads almost like play
of the most degraded type.
Rinard was the son of prominent real
estate and insurance man of Braddock,
and up to last Christmas he stood high
in the community About that time he
met the Wilbert woman, and his infatua-
ton for her made him neglect his young
wife and child His wife is a member
of a we'll known family in Braddock.
The combined efforts of the couple S
families were brought to bear on the po-
lice department of Pittsburg to break up
the intimacy between Rinard and the
Wilbert woman. BY this means the two
were kept apart for a short time, but
of late the two have been living together.
Rinard warned Mrs. Wilbert last night
as she was going out that if she did not
return at once he would shoot her. She
refused to obey him. This morning Rim
ard called Mrs. Wilbert to the parlor.
and almost Immediately afterward five
shots were heard. The woman was
found lying in the center of the room
with a bullet wound in the head and
another under her heart. Rinard was
near the fireplace with large ragged
hole through his head. Both were dead

TILLMAN AGAIN APOLOGIES.
AS soon as the vote was announced
Mr.. Burrows demanded that the state
ment of Mr.. Tillman made during the
roll call be read to the Senate. Scarcely
had the clerk concluded the reading when
Mr. Tillman, addressing the President
said:
THE words uttered by me were not in
tended to be offensive, and If they were
so considered l very gladly withdraw
them
AS Mr.. Burrows was about to address
the Senate, Mr.. Teller said:
THE Senator from South Carolina was
not called to order by anybody. I think
we had better proceed"
Mr.. Burrows explained that he had had
no opportunity during the roll call to
direct the Senate's attention to Mr.. Till
mans words.
The chair (Mr. Frye said:
The Senator has Withdrawn the re-
marks there objection on the part OF
the Senate to their Withdrawals"

just passed, but he could see no othel
way open to the Senate to punish the

the punishment was sufficient He be

(By the Associated Press.)
Denison, Texas, Feb. 27.-The session
OF the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers today was held behind closed
doors. Grand Chief Arthur stated that
there was a wrong impression as to the
character of the meeting. The biennial
meeting of the order takes place in May
when there probably will be some action
taken for uniform schedules and the
adoption of standard rules for all the
railroads in the United States will be
asked. These matters came up for in
formal discussion to get the ideas of men
along the lines centering here.
Chief Arthur said:
THE meeting being held is to discuss
matters of interest to the members of
the order and to have an interchange of
ideas among the subdivisions OF such
things as concern them and are for the
good of the order

NEITHER TJLLMAN NOR McLAURIN
COULD HAVE ACTED OTHERWISE
While Charlestonians Agree in This They
Would be Delighted to be Bid Of Both
the Sensational Senators.
(Staff Correspondence

Charleston, S. c.. Feb. 27.--Since the
Tilman McLaurin lie direct and fsticuff
in the United States Senate the event has
been thoroughly discussed here.
There has been no voice heard but that
declared the incident was disgraceful to
both the State and the Senate, and yet
there is on all sides an expression that
McLaurin could not do less under the
direct charge of a dirty deal than to de-
nounce Tillman as he did, and that when
the senior Senator was thus pilloried be-
fore the country he could not do less than
reply with the blow in McLaurin's face.
The shame of the incident is felt keenly
here and the concensus of the opinions
expressed is that the people would be hap
DIV to see both the Senators retired to
private life.
