HOPE FOR THE HoERs.
A Story of Their Gains Comes by
 Way of The Hague.

A Story of Their Gains Comes by
 Way of The Hague.
 LONDON, Jan. 25.-The Daily News has published from its correspondent al The Hague, who it claims up to the present time to have been very accu- rate, the following dispatch taken from private advices received at The Hague.
 Views from South Africa has reach ed military circles here to the effect that the power of the Boers over Cape Colony is increasing daily, that the re bellion is constantly spreading and that the colonists are joining the Boers in steadily increasing numbers. The exc cutions of Commandant Lotter (Oct II, 19OD and Commandant Scheepers Gan. IS, 1902 have had the result of deciding the loyalists to join the Boers whose position is consistently reported to be more favorable than ever.''
 The same private advices assert that the British suffered a dozen defeats from September to November, 1901, continues the correspondent, of which no mention is made in Lord Kitchener reports.
 The Daily News, commenting upon this dispatch, confssses that its state ments are probably exaggerated, but is of the opinion that the denials of Mir. Balfour, the government leader in the house of commons, that there had been any Boer overfures for peace points to the fact that the Boers believe their position to be less desperate than is generally supposed.

The Patrick Trial.

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.--The trial of Albert T. Patrick, charged with the murder of William Marsh Rice, devel- oped nothing approaching novelty or sensation yesterday. In all five wit nesses were on the stand for the prose- cution. Of these three--John H. Wal lace, paying teller; w. o. Weatherbee, clerk, and Eric B. Swenson, all of the banking house of S. NJ Swenson & Son, with whom Rice had an account swore that in their opinion the check for $25,000 known as the Albert, check, because of mistake in the spelling of Patrick's name, was for gerry. All of these witnesses were sub- tected to searching cross examina- ton, so close indeed that at the close of the days proceedings Recorder Golf announced that in future he would not allow needlessly voluminous questions.

At the present time Hill street at some points is almost impossible to teams and pedestrians go through there at great risk. By invitation Al derman Beach addressed the meeting and in the course of his remarks said he was very much impressed with the need of repairs in that street.

SHORT CALENDAR TO-DAY.
The Distribution of Sey Estate Fin
 ishes Up the Case.

The Distribution of Ney Estate Fin
 ishes Up the Case.
 The principal matter transacted at short calendar in the district court to- day before Judge Cowell was short hearing on the distribution of funds belonging to the estate Of the late Keron Ney. The amount was about $500. Senator Kennedy, representing two-thirds of the heirs. stated that when he last heard from them they favored the proposition that no mat ter how they would be affected Mrs Ney should be taken care of until her demise. Then the estate should be divided between them. What their opinion may be now he was unable to state. as he has been unsuccessful in reaching them through the mails. They are scatttered all over the country. Ac- cording to law, the widow is entitled to the life use of the estate which. it was estimated, would be about $2O0. It was decided therefore to carry out the provisions as made by law. This substantially disposes of this case, which has been in court for about ten years.
 Other business transacted consisted as follows: A motion for default in the suit of William Markell against Helen A. Book was taken off the call endar and a bond of $50 was ordered to be filed in two weeks in the suit of Nelson J. Potter against Alice J. Pond. In this case also plaintiffs demurrer was sustained and motion to ex- pnnge portions of the complaint was allowed. A motion to cite in new par ties in each of the eases of David R. Wilson. David B. Wilson & Go and G. Leslie Dexter against Eli Bronson ct ux was continued to next week. All other motions went over A motion for judgment and law day in the suit of Theophilius Olena against Patrick Mooney was set down for hearing on Monday. The arguments in the case Of Derwin against Gilmartin were then Fegun.
