The word clock, derived from the French

up to the fourteenth century 1t was only

BOTHA READY TO FIGHT ON
BOER LEADER EXPRESSES HOPE OF
FUTURE SUCCESS.
Scandal in Connection With Purchase
of Remounts for the British
Army.

A dispatch from Paris last night says:
The Liberte prints dispatch from Brus-
sells today which says that DR.. Leyds, the
European agent of the Beers, recently re-
ceived a communication from General
Botha, dated only five weeks ago, in which
the Boer commander-in-chief not only does
not allude to his alleged desire for peace.
but declares that the Beers are sufficiently
provisioned to continue the struggle hope
fully, and that the situation in Cape Col
ony is growing worse for the British.
The Temps correspondent, in an inter-
view with Mr.. Leyds and Mr.. Fischer, at
Brussels, regarding the powers of the Boer
delegation in Europe, quotes them as say
ing:
I'VE are duly accredited by our govern
ments. and could begin negotiations at any
moment, but we will do nothing decisive
before consulting with the commanders.
and neither Stein nor Botha, or any other
leader, will take a decision without con-
ferring with u.s.
A dispatch from London yesterday says:
The war secretary, Mr.. Brodrick, in in
Producing a supplementary army estimate
of IS, 600, 600 in the house of commons to-
day, said this brought the total of the cost
OF the war for the present year up to f61.
070,O0O On January l, Mr.. Brodrick said,
there were still 237 800 British troops In
South Africa The expenses Of the war had
now been reduced to about "a, 100000 per
month.
Mr.. Brodrick's presentation Of the sup
Elementary army estimate furnished Sir
John Blundell Maple CONSERVATIVE with
an opportunity to refer to yesterdays rs-
port of the committee appointed to inquire
into the purchases of horses for the British
army which, while censuring Sir John for
un1ustihable attacks on the integrity oi
officers, found that excessive prices were
paid. Sir John asserted that his original
statements were true, and submitted let
| ters to show that certain officers were
mixed up In horse swindles at Budapest
and Vienna. He also asserted that the evi
dence before the committee revealed 6
gross scandal.
| Mr.. Hobhouse, a member of the inquiry
| committee, defended the officers, but de
clared that the Investigations revealed

partment. On one contract for horses

In remounts the speaker estimated that the
war office had bestowed on the contractors
a profit totaltng f8,000,O00. Inc remount
department was clearly Inefficient, and the
officer at the head Of it ought to be dis

At that juncture Sir William Vernon
Harcourt QiberaD said he desired some
explanation regarding the new contracts
for food.
Mr.. Brodrick replied somewhat fiippantly,
whereupOn there were loud cries OF 'Ors
der,' and Sir William, amid cheers, sharp-
ly reminded the war secretary that 1t was
the custom of the house for members 10
treat one another with "gentlemanly cour-
tesy.''
Henry Labouchere QiberaD declared that
somebody ought to be hanged In connec-

duction of the vote.
| Lord Stanley, financial secretary to the

INSANE FATHER
 BRAINS HIS FAMILY
He Crowns His Mad Performance by
 Suicide.

Park City. Utah. September IA hor- rible tragedy was enacted three miles below here on the Snyderville road this morning when William TTottman, after trying to beat the brains out of his wita and children. shot himself through the heart with Winchester rifle.
 Trottman entered the room where his two daughters, aged fourteen and six teen years, were asleep, and after kiss ing them affectionately raised a monk ey wrench which he carried and struck the oldest daughter on the head, crush ing her skull. The other daughter awakened and the inhuman father re- peatedly struck her over the head with tha heavy instrument.
 The mother, who was awakened by the noise, then entered the room and was. next attacked and cruelty beaten about the head and body. While her injuries are serious they are not neces- sarily fatal. Trottman then secured Q Winchester and, rushing from the house placed the muzzle of the weapon to his breast and pulled the trigger, the ball going entirely through his body.
 Trottman early last April was sent to the insane asylum at Provo because it was feared that he would kill his family He returned on Saturday and the tragedy followed.

AMERICAN PATIENCE
 IN THE PHILIPPINES
German Correspondents Praise of the
 Management of Affairs.

Berlin, September 1.-The correspon dent of the Frankfort Zeitung, writ ing from Manila, replies to the charges of cruelty on the part of the American army appearing in the newspapers.
 He says: Perhaps no other nation except the United States would have the patience to meet the stubborn re- sistance of the Filipinos in Samar for two long years with such humanity as on the whole has been the case. It is not to be wondered at that the Ameri- can leaders finally. let their gall run over at the treacherous tricks played upon them and adopted sharper meas ures. Of course some eXcesses have Oc- cured. but it is highly inadmissable to select these few cases and serve them to the public as typical of Ameri- can war-making.
 The correspondent also emphasizes the injustice of expecting Americans tC observe in every case the rules of civi- lized warfare while fighting such a foe The writer praised the political shrewd- ness combined with moderation of mak- ing the surrendered insurgent officers governors of provinces.

THE ENGAGEMENT.

Vert Trumbull, New London, Conn. Headquarters of the Army of Defense. September 2.-At just 1920 last night the big guns of Forts Wright, Terry and Michie belched forth almost sim ultaneously and there was no longer any doubt that the first attack in the war game was in effect For an hour the cannonading continued, and the re- suit from the army station point is best stated in this official bulletin, post ed at headquarters at 1920:
 The movement to pass through be- gan at 10:20 D. m. Forts Michie. Wright and Terry were engaged fifty minutes. Apparently the ships entering had been put out of action by the points scored by the army guns.'
 The result, however. will be deter mined later by board of arbitration. All was quiet at army headquarters. when suddenly the reports of the big guns were heard, and General Mac Arthur listened attentively. The at tack was on, but it came sooner than was expected by the major general commanding.

TRANSCONTIkENTaL TRIP
 COMES TO 4 SUDDEN END
The Failure of the Balloon Exped;-
 tion From Denver.

Denver, Col, September 1.-After q lapse of more than twenty-four hours during which no word had been receiv- ed from the three aeronuts who left Denver yesterday to try for a trans continental balloon voyage. a telegram came tonight announcing that the air ship had been wrecked in a storm twenty-seven miles north of Florence, Col. Although severely bruised and somewhat frostbitten, the men were not seriously hurt.
 The storm first struck the balloon at 9.30 o'clock last night, and between that hour and daylight the experience of the aeronauts was terrible in the extreme. Three times the balloon was carried over Pike's peak, and the last time it was necessary to throw out all the water, provisions and instruments in order to clear the rocky summit of the mountain. At daylight a landing was made and tonight the men reached Florence.
