Special Cablegram to The Star.
PARIS, November 3O-The dirigible bal
loon La Patrie, owned by the French
government. began it's official duties FRI
day afternoon. 1t left Verdun, with sew
en- persons on board, with the intention Of
accommodating to the eastward. A quar-
ter of an hour after the start the motor
ceased to work, the chauffeur's leather
trousers having caught in the machipery
and fragments of them being carried into
the mechanism. It was at first hoped
that the motor could be cleared without
descending, but this proving impossible
the balloon came down late this after
noon some ten miles from Verdun. Sol
diers from the nearest fort held 1t down
all night This was a difficult job, as
strong wind was Blowing. The men were
exhausted this morning, when reinforce
ments and a supply of hydrogen gas ar
rived. The wind continued too strong TO
allow the balloon to return to Verdun A
violent spell late this evening dragged the
200 soldiers who were holding it forty
yards, and tore it loose. 1t sailed off In a
westerly direction, and the war office has
received no news of it as yet.

UNEAsINEss IN NATAL.
Murders and outrages on Settlement
Borders Are Reported.

PIETERMARITZBUR Natal, Novem-
Der 30.-Murders and outrages, including
the killing in Zululand of two chiefs who
were friendly to Great Britain, are caus-
ing uneasiness throughout Natal and par
ticularly the border settlements. 1t was
thought that the lessons taught the ma
'tives by the troops last year would have
the effect Of maintaining order, but, on
the contrary, the natives are growing
holder, and the result is that the govern
ment will be forced to resort to severe
measures against them.
The governor has issued a proclamation
directing that the force now in Zuuland
be strengthened. 1t has been decided to
mobilize a portion Of the militia, nclud-
Ing cavalry and infantry, to proceed to
the disanected area to assist the police
in driving the offenders into the bush and

their punishment

FOR THE CANAL BONDS
Over 5000 Bids Received by
the Treasury.
DAN OVER-SUBSCRIBED
Announcement Made by Secretary
Cortelyou.
PRICE PROBABLY EXCEEDS 102
New Securities Will Bear 2 Per
Cent Interest and Will Be
Payable Quarterly.

The opening Of the bids for the issue
OF 100000 Panama canal bonds, which
was begun at 4:30 O'Clock yesterday aft
'ernoon, was not finished until nearly 10
o'clock, when Secretary Cortelyou made
the following announcement:
THE bids for the $50,Oo0,OOO of Panama
canal bonds, invited by the Secretary
circular Of November 10, were opened this
evening in the Treasury Department.
There were more than 1900 bids, and the
loan was many times oversu5scribed.
No complete tabulation has been possible
as yet. but it can be stated tina. the
average price is we'll above the present
market price of the bonds. Owing to the
large number of bids to be considered 1t
will be impracticable to make an allot-
ment Immediately, but the Secretary will
be prepared to give further information
Monday
The Successful Bidders.
Further than this the Secretary was
not prepared to make any statement He
explained that there was such a very
large number of bids to make any deduc-
tons as to the lowest price at which the
bonds would be awarded was manifestly
impossible last night, and that it might
take some close calculations to deter
mine just which bids were successful and
which were not. AS in all bond issues
there were no doubt a considerable num-
Der which were made for considerable
amounts by irresponsible parties who
hoped If successful to be able to sell their
awards at profit, and these suspicious
cases would have to be looked into before
final awards were made. The Secretary
said. however. that the final results would
be announced at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
The Market Price.
Asked as to just what he meant in his
statement by 1.-The present market price
OF the bonds" the Secretary asked to
be excused from being more explicit, but
others familiar with the present market
price of the other Panama bond issue
interpret his words to mean that the sue
cessful price of the present issue will be
considerably in excess of 1O2, and pos
sibly above 1903.
Among. the bidders was the National
City Bank OF New York, which submitted
a number of b DIS, aggregating s.. OOO 600.
at prices ranging from 1O11h to 1O3. 1t
