iORD ROBERTS' NET
Leaves But One Avenue for
Boers to Escape.
BRITISH FIND LITTLE OPPOSITION
Roada 1st Terriala CtUUi, So
Dntch May to Oct Safe
ly Awar-Bobnti' Resort.
LONDON, April 25. S M. The re
porta that the siege 01 Wepener has
been practically raised were apparently
premature. The Boer Attack upon Colonel
Dalgetys northern position, as described
from Maseru, was probably a final at
tempt to rush the garrison before secur
ing a. safe retreat, and as Colonel Dal
gety successfully repulsed the attack, lit
tle further anxiety Is felt on his account.
Lord Roberts has noir spread & net with
some 40,000 or more men and 150 guns, cov
ering the whole -western semi-circle
around Wepener. while General Hamilton
has occupied the waterworks practically
without opposition.
The Seventh Division, under General
Tucker, assisted by naval guns, has made
& demonstration from Karee Siding, the
Boers showing some opposition. At the
same time a brigade moved out from
Glen to take up a position on a range ot
hills at Gennaadenale. north of the Mod
der. The waterworks were found un
damaged, with the exception of the re
moval of the sliding valves of the pump
ing engines.
The Boers now can only escape, with
out risking an encounter, northward to
Ladybrand, and the chance of a success
ful outcome, of the plans of Lord Roberts
depends on whether' the British troops
can reach Thabnnchu and Ijadybrand be
fore the retreating commandoes from De
"Wet's Dorp and Wepener. All the cor
respondents report that the roods are in
a terrible condition, which accounts for
the slow progress of the British columns,
and if the Boers are as well Informed of
the British plans as they hitherto have
been, they are likely again to escape. It
Is now within three weeks of the date for
the British occupation of Pretoria, and.
although the present operations, as sug
gested In some quarters, may be the be
ginning of the main advance, it Is not
certain that they will not entail a further
halt at Blocmfonteln.
Battle In Proa-reas.
ALIWAL NORTH. April 24. It is report

LONDON, April 25. A correspondent of
the Standard, with General Brabant, at
Zastron, telegraphing Monday, eays:
"A Boer commando left Zastron last
Monday, going in the direction of Wepener.
Before leaving, the commandant com
pelled a number of unwilling burghers to
Join the fighting force by threats of con
fiscating their property.
"The march hither from Aliwal North
has been most trying. The roads are In
a terrible condition, and the country is
full of swamps and rocky passes. The
transport, however, surmounted all dif
ficulties successfully.
"General Brabant commands the Colo

under General Hart forms the advanced

"Our bread Is made now entirely of oats,
and is full of husks. This causes much
Illness. There are many cases of nervous
prostration and malarial typhoid among

"The news of the check to the rellevlna
column Is a terrible disappointment. Last
Friday 33 natives Issued forth to recover
some cattle whlch'had been looted by the
Boers. They were betrayed to the Boers
who surrounded them while they were
sleeping, and shot them all but one, giving
no quarter. One escaped to tell the tale.
"The natives are now mad for revenge,
and It will be very difficult to control
them. The bombardment continues. Our
casualties to combatants up to the end of
March aggregated 368 killed and wounded."

President McKlnley Is believed to have

for a conference with the leaders of both
the regular ,and Union Republican fac
tions, with a view of bringing them togeth

terview with Colonel Dupont and Mr.
Addlcks, the leaders of both factions.
The "Unions" have made their propost.
tlon. Their scheme Is to pitch in and elect
the whole ticket with a fair resolution
upon It and a fair representation in the
Philadelphia convention, provided that all
the Republican Legislators shall go into
caucus and ballot for their choice; that
the highest man voted for be selected foi
the long-term Senatorshlp, and the next
hlgest man be chosen for the short-term
Senatorshlp.
This will certainly mean that Senators
will be made of both Dupont and Addlcks
and there are said to be enough Repub
lican friends of each to carry out the
plan. The Union Republican leaders prom
ise to make known the result at Washing
ton as soon as it Is known.

Quay Refused a Seat In the

The Tote on the Chandler Resolu

Stood 33 to 33.
WASHINGTON.April 24. Hon. Matthew
S. Quay was today refused a seat In the
United States Senate on the appointment
of the Governor of Pennsylvania, by a
vote of 33 to 22. The entire time of tho
Senate today was devoted to debate upon
the question, many of the greatest lawyers
and orators of the body delivering
speeches. As the day's session wore on
and the hour for the final vote ap
proached, the galleries filled until tney
were thronged with multitudes, while
other multitudes were unable to gain ad
mission. On the floor of the Senate was
every member of the body now In the city
and scores of the members of the House
of Representatives. The great throng lis
tened with deep attention to the brilliant
argument of Spooner In favor of the seat.

and to the dramatic and flery eloquence bf
Daniel (Dem. iVa.). who appealed to his
colleagues to do what, on his oath as a
Senator, he deemed right, and vote to do

Senate doors.

mo vuie wouio. oo close, rne nrst sensa-
tlon was caused by the failure of Petti-
grew (Dem. 8. D.) to answer to his name,
although he was in his seat. When Vest's
name was called, he voted "No" in a
clear voice, thus dashing the last nopo
of the friends 'of Quay, who had expected
comiaemiy inii ine uisunguisnea -ms-
sourlan would vote for his long-time per-
confidently that the distinguished Mis-
sonal friend. In perfect silence It was
announced that the Senate had denied to
Quay the seat which he has sought for
some months past.
The final debate on the Quay case be
gan at 11 o'clock. Notwithstanding the
comparatively early hour of meeting, a
large number of Senators were present
when the session opened, and many peo
ple were In the galleries
A resolution offered last week by Cul

or tne territories or the United States, to
inquire into tne war wltn spam, the per-
sonnel of the commission, the total com
pensation or allowance of each of tne
commlsslonersand all of the employes of
the commissions.
A bill authorizing the Secretary of War
to make regulations governing the run
ning of loose logs, steamboats and rafts
' on certain rivers was passed.
Consideration of tho Quay case was" then
resumed- Penrose (Rep. Pa.) continued
hls argument begun late yesterday after
noon.
McCumber (Rep. N. D.) delivered a
carefully prepared Constitutional argu
ment In opposition to the seating of
Qu"y- Only a brief while ago he was
UAWA) n - -.J-.j.j M a-k..
regarded as an advocate of Quay's clatm.
but he announced in his speech that after
careful consideration he had changed his
opinion. The change, he said, was not
based upon emotion, but upon reason.
In an extended argument. Lindsay
(Dem. Ky.) presented legal and Constitu
tional reasons why. In his opinion. Quay
ought not to be seatedl. He held that
the appointment of Senators by the state
executive was provided for by tho fram
ers of the Constitution merely to provide
for the Ailing of vacancies that may be
regarded as unexpected. They never con
templated, he maintained, that the leg
islative power to elect should be divided
with the Executive, and ho urged that in
the present case the .Governor did not
have Constitutional authority to appoint
Air. Quay
Spooner (Rep. Wis.) said his long and
laborious speech two years ago In support
of Mr. Corbett's right to a seat had
seemed to have little effect, and had not
even convinced Senators Quay or Penrose.
He believed the question pending ought to
be determined upon the Constitutional
view of it taken by each Senator. Per
sonality had no decent place In the dis
cussion. He did not undervalue prece
dent, but precedent should shackle no one.
Hale (Rep. Me.) asked Spooner If ne
thought It well that this great question
should be continually before the Senate.
Hale contended that It was better, for
Governors and for legislators that there
should be an end of such contemlons.
"I shall be glad," said Spooner, "If this
discussion shall lead to legislation or a
Constitutional amendment that will put
an end to the possibility of such cases."
In conclusion, Spooner contended for
liberal statesmanship, and not a narrow
view of the case. Neither personal ties
nor popularity would Influence bis vote,
which should be cast for Quay.
Stewart (SIL Nev.) explained tnat he
had voted against the seating of Corbett
two years ago because he did not twnk
"Mr. Corbett came here with clean
hands. I have not the slightest doubt
that the Governor in any case like the one
pending has perfect right to appoint the
Senator."
Turner (Fus. Wash.) said his convic
tions compelled him to vote against Quay,
although he had voted In favor of seat
ing Corbett. He differentiated between
the two cases.
"Thls'is a Judicial question," said Daniel
(Dem. Va,), "and ought to be decided
upon Judicial principles. According to my
legal convictions. Quay Is entitled to n
seat In this body; and. so believing, I will
so vote."
Daniel concluded at 3:50 o'clock.
During the afternoon the galleries had
filled gradually until at this time they
were Jammed. Every Senator In the city
was In his seat, and many members of
the House of Representatives, including
almost the solid Pennsylvania delegation,
were In the area outside of the rowe of
desks.
The Joint resolution providing for the
filling of temporary ofllces In Porto Rico
was sent to conference. Senators Fcraker.
Perkins and Cockrell being named as con
ferees. At 4 o'clock the chair announced that
the hour for voting had arrived, and the
pending question was Chandler's motion
to strike out of the committee resolu
tions, declaring that Quay was not enti
tled to a seat in the Senate, the word
"not." The motion was defeated. 32 to

PORTO RICO NOT FOREIGN.
So Decides Internal Revenue
rean ns to Beer Tax.
Bu-
WASHINGTON. April 24.-CommlssIon-er
Wilson, of the Internal Revenue Bu
reau, nas received an Inqulrr as to wheth
er, under the new Porto Rlcan act. beer
exported to Porto Rico will be required
to be stamped under existing revenue reg
ulations as applied for home consump
tion, or If it can be removed under ex
Port amps, as heretofore. In his reply
the Commissioner calls attention to the
ruling of his office to the effect that
Porto Rico is not a foreign country
within the meaning of the customs draw
back law. and that, therefore, no refund
of duty can be allowed by way of draw
back on goods exported to that countrv.
The Commissioner hold3 that on and after
May L 1900. articles subject to internal
revenue tax cannot be exported to Porto
Rico in bond, or with benefits or draw
back of the tax paid, under Internal rev
enue laws.

COLUMBUS. O.. April 24. The Supreme
Court today affirmed the decision of the
lower court In the case of Judge Frank
Dellenbaugh, of Cleveland, and he stands
disbarred from the courts of Ohio. The
ground of the disbarment was that Judge
Dellenbaugh shared a fee with an attor
ney in a case which came before him.
THE DEFEAT OF QUAY
Senate as a Whole Rejoices
Over Its Action.
ALL THE BLUFFS WERE CALLED
Precedent Eatabllahed Blttea
Feeltnsr Against Hanna and
the Admlnlatratlon.
WASHINGTON, April 24. The bold
bluffs made by the Quayltes were all
called touay, and the Senate, as a whole,
is rejoicing that It did not reverse Itself
and give a seat to the appointee from
Pennsylvania. The Quay men are mak
ing desperate charges of all kinds and
characters, especially against the men
who voted for Corbett and against Quay,
but the fact la some of these changed
because they did not want the Senate to
reverse Its action of past years on such
an Important question. Some Republicans
voted against Quay today because they
thought his continuance in politics was a
menace to good government and a dan
ger to the Republican party. It Is now
well understood that Quay cannot win
In Pennsylvania this Fall, and that the
same minority that kept him from elec
tion last time will be there to oppose
him next Winter. The Legislature of
Pennsylvania, knowing what the Senate
will do. will not dare to adjourn without
electing a Senator, and Quay, no matter
how many votes he gets, will not be able
to hold up the Legislature and prevent
an election, as he did before. The people
of Pennsylvania will repudiate anything
that will leave the state presented simply
and solely by a man like Penrose, who
was the creature of Quay.
There is a great deal of ill-feeling to
ward Hanna and the Administration
among the friends of Quay, and a great
deal of ugly talk is Indulged In as to
tho motives that actuated Hanna in pair
ing against Quay, when It was under
stood all along that he had been for him.
The fact Is. Hanna felt that the Repub
licans could not carry any such load as
the seating of Quay would entail. Tho
Democrats, with few exceptions, were op
posed to Quay, and would bear but little
of the denunciation which would follow
such action by the Senate. Quay was
much stronger than the proposition to
seat men appointed under such circum
stances, and the belief Is now general
that a precedent ha been established
which will end further attempts of this
kind.
There was a great dal of excitement
during the entire day over the Quay
case, and the doubtful Senators were
canvassed as closely as possible. The only
other time whpn an IRue was In such
.Teat doubt was when the Senate ratified
,he P-11 treaty of peace. As In the
I of the treaty, no one could tell how

the
vote was golnt; until the final vote was

Tremendous pre nirr was hocrht to hear
on some Senators on hnh th Republican
and Democratic sides, while the opponents
of Quay were equally active Ir: check

the Ponnsvlvanla anrvolntee. Th" Interest
was Intense, and hpichtenrd a great deal
on account of the rloone of the contest.

mlttP fnr fnr.Ini ntlira. fnp tho -Pi-,.
bvterlan church in the llnl1 State, "
a paper on native agency in evangelistic
work, with special reference to the devel
opment of native leaders. In part, he said:
"A widely prevalent sentiment In our
home churches Is that civilization not in
its essence, even, but In the mere trap
pings of it forms a large. If not the chief
part of what tho coming of the kingdom
means to the heathen nations. If this
were true, then the world, rather than the
church, would be the proper agency to
conduct missions, and the best evangelists
to be found In China would be her great
viceroy and diplomats, if such a thing
were conceivable. Comparatively few of
the native agents needed today chosen of
Christ for propagating his church will be
found among the literati of China, the
Samurai of Japan, the Yangbans of Corea,
the Brahmins of India, or the chief men
of any heathen society. Oriental society,
especially men of that ciars. are usually
found to have a holy horror of work.
Again, in all the far East today, the most
deadening Confucianizcd man Is the liter
ary man. To de-Confudanlze him will
usually require, not only regeneration, but
also quite a long period of progressive
sanctiflcation. Meanwhile, he Is likely to
persist in his habit of magnifying form
over substance, to retail more than his
meet of his awful reverence for trifles and
his enlightened scorn of weightier mat
ters, and to shrink from the impropriety
of ever turning himself loose on a con
gregation in a full tide of gospel enthu
siasm. As a rule, he wilt make a poor
evangelist."
