London, March 11.-Expressions of
steadfastness have today succeeded those
of humiliation, which were universally
heard here yesterday, on the publication
of the news of General Methuens dis
aster. Lord Roseberry struck the pop
ular note today in a speech before the
Glagow students. He admitted that it
was heart breaking after all the expen-
diture of life, time and money, but, he
added:
1T will not .dishearten us. We have
got to see this thing through. We must
take the blows which fortune deals us
with equanimity, showing ourselves
worthy of better fortunes"
Reports from the continent that the
defeat of General Methuen was followed
up by another fight, also favorable to the
Beers, occasion some anxiety. owing to
the absence of news from General Gren-
felPs column of 1900 men, which left
Klerksdorp to join General Methuen. 1t
is thought that, possibly General De
Larey may have attacked Grenfell.
The War Secretary, Mr.. Brodrck, when
asked in the House of Commons today
what steps had been taken in view of the
success of the Beers against General
Methuen, to send Lord Kitchener re-
Inducements. said 5000 Yeomanry would
be Immediately embarked with large
drafts of cavalry and infantry. Lord
Kitchener would be given all the assist
ance he asked for.

Ed S. BATTLES CASE
Was Argued in Supreme
Court Yesterday.
Ex.Goy, Russell Opened For Def1ndant A.
torney GiImer For the State. The
Liquor Case.

Yesterday morning lin the Supreme
S. Battle was argued. This is an appeal
from the sentence imposed upon Battle
by Judge Robinson last September, for
ssrf@assatflt upon MayoF-A.- M. Powell, of
this city.
Ex-Governor Russell opened the argu-
ment for the defendant. and Mr.. S. F.
Mordecai and Hon. Jos. B. Bachelor
closed. The Attorney General made the
argument on behalf of the State.
The defendants counsel, Messrs. Rus
sell & Gore. S. F. Mordecai and w. n.
Jones, filed a printed motion to arrest
the judgment, with brief supporting
such motion. The points made by defen-
dant's counsel are:
/. That the bill of indictment is ia
tally defective as far as the charge of
assault with serious injury" is con-
cerned. because it fails to specify the
nature and extent of the injury.
2. That the bill practically charges
two offenses-assault with serious in
jury, and simple assault within one
mile of the court house; and as there was
a general verdict of guilty the court
could not pronounce judgment.
For these positions defendant relied
upon State V. Earnest, 90 N. c., TAO,
State V. Right, 124 N. c., S45, and sew
eral other cases cited in the brief.
The Attorney General, while not ad-
mitting the correctness of defendants
contention, insisted that in no event
should the court grant new trial. but,
at most, should remand the case to the
end that a proper judgment be entered.
What are known as the liquor cases
are to be argued in the Supreme court
today. These involve about $15, 1000. For
q long time the city of Raleigh has been
collecting license taxes from saloons
which were outside of the city limits,
but within the police jurisdiction of the
city. A bill was passed by the last leg
islature providing that all cities must
refund money collected on liquor licenses
from parties outside the corporate linn
it's. At the time of it's passage the
effect of the bill was not appreciated.
But no sooner had the Legislature ad-
jOurned than Ex-Governor Russell and
Attorney E. ]. Best brought suit against
the city on behalf of all the liquor deal
ers who have conducted places outside
of town. The city appealed from the Su-
perior to the Supreme court, and City
Attorney w. L. Watson argues before the
Supreme court for the city.

berry and other complaints.
Policeman Henley accidentally ran upon

He VETOES THE BILL
RoOseveIt's Foot Planted on
Bill Removing Charge
of DesertiOn.
(By the Associated press.l !

Washington, March 11.-President
Roosevelt today sent his first veto mes
sage to Congress. 1t was directed to
the Senate, and the bill vetoed was one
removing the charge of desertion from
the naval record of John Glass. The
message was as follows:
There can be no graver crime than
the crime of desertion from the army or
navy, especially during war; it is then
high treason to the nation and is Justly
punishable by death. No man should be
relieved from such a crime, especially
when nearly forty years have passed
since it occurred, save on the clearest
possible proof of his real innocence. In
this case the statement made by the
affiant before the committee does not in
all points agree with his statement made
to the Secretary of the Navy In any
event it is incCmprehensible to me that
he should not have made effective effort
to get back int the navy. He had served
but little more than month when he
deserted, and the war lasted for. over a
year afterwards, yet he made no effort
whatever to get back into the war I'm
DER Sucn circumstances IL seems to HSc
that to remove the charge of desertion
from the navy ard give him an honor
able discharge would be to falsify the
records and do an injustice to his gall
liant and worthy comrades, who fought the
war to a finish. The names of the vet
Grams who fought in the Civil War make
the honor list of the Republic, and / am
not willing to put upon it the name of
man unworthy of the high position.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
After the message had been delivered
Senator Gallinger, from the Committee
on Naval Affairs, read the report of the
committee on which the Senate acted.
From that statement it appeared that
Glass enlisted in. January, 1864, when
only 16 years Of age, and that having
witnessed an act which compromised the
second officer of the ship, he was taken
ashore in March of that year by that
officer and told not to report again for
duty. The committee say thaf pltia1eR..s
der, together with Glasss@youth, was re-
sponsible for his desertion.
