MAD MULLAH WINS
OVER The ENGLISH

LONDON. October l3.-The Foreign
Office has issued an undated dispatch
from Colonel Cobbs, commanding one
OF the columns of British forces opeT-
ating against the Mad Mullah in Som
aliland. The dispatch was forwarded
through the British vice consul at
Berbora, Somaliland. The British
forces engaged were composed entirely
OF native troops and levies.
Colonel Cobb says: my force
reached Erego this morning. When
about one days march north of Mudug
ii was attacked in the thick brush.
Two advances were made. and the enc
my was beaten back in the morning.
Their losses were heavy, and we cap
tured 100 rifles. Our force then pro-
ceeded to collect animals for transpor-
tation purposes and to join the detach-
ments at the stockade camp. In the
afternoon a reconnaissance was made.
and after sharp fighting the enemy was
again driven off.
Il deeply regret to report the follow
ing casualties. Colonel Phillips and
Captain Angus and fifty men killed and
about 100 wounded. The latter include
Captain Howard and Lieutenant Ev-
erett, but both are doing well. There
We're severe losses among the troop and
riding columns. The force will reach
the stockade camp tomorrow, and will
advance to attack the enemy"
The vice consul also telegraphs the
substance Of later dispatch from
Colonel Swayne. who says that as
result of the fighting at Erego October
9Th. which was very severe. the Somali
leyies are considerably shaken. The
Mullah, who is said to be in communl
cation with Kali and Inger, in the di-
rection Of Webberivor, is bringing up
re-inforcements on all sides.
Colonel Swayne is much hampered
owing to the necessity of the transpor-
tation Of the wounded He is retiring
on Bohotle. He asks that 600 further
reliable troops be dispatched from Ber-
bora forthwith
The severe reverses in Somaliland
place the small British force there,
about 5000 men of doubtful reliability,
in an exceedingly perilous situation.

ST, JAMES HOTEL
ON THE MARKET

SAN JOSE, oct. l6.-Mrs. Sam Par
ker. the widow of James Campbell, the
millionaire sugar-grower of the Hawai-
ian Islands, has notified c. T. Bird, her
agent in this city, to sell the st. James
Hotel, which was one of the pieces of
property left her by her husband.
The property is one of the most valu-
able and best paying realty invest
ments In the city. 1t is rumored that 1t
can be purchased for SlS0OO0, Mrs Par
ker Is selling it because II is so far
from her other holdings. The property
was bought by Campbell two years be-
fore his death, not as an investment,
but because he desired 10 spend part
of his time here and wanted it more as
a diversion.
The hotel was not paying at the time.
He Immediately tore down half of the
old structure and erected "A fine modern
four-story hotel at the cost OF nearly
100000. Since then II has paid well.
1t was here that Mrs Campbell spent
considerable time with her daughters
after Campbell's death and finally mar
ried Colonel Sam Parker within the
hostelry.
