BOER WAR NOT OVER

LONDON, Nov. ia South Africa
threatens once more to absorb public at
tention In Great Britain. Lord Salisbury,
In bis speech at the Inaugural banquet of
the Lord Mayor, In the Guild Hall, last
evening-, held out little hope of Immediate
pacification, and the return of Lord Rob
erts Is still problematical, and Is certain
ly a matter of weeks and perhaps
months. One of those most seriously in
terested and best informed as to the fu
ture of the belligerent region, when asked
by a representative of the Associated
Press what was going to happen and
how soon It would happen, replied: "Un
fortunately, I am not a minor prophet."
That voices the government attitude. The
Ministers have given up speculating as to
when peace will be thoroughly restored,
and, to use Lord Salisbury's phrase anent
China, they are "waiting for the situa
tion to develop itself." Generals and
regiments are returning, but others are
constantly leaving England to replace
them. A recruiting depot 1b being es
tablished In London to supply 1000 men
for General Baden-Powell's South Africa
police force, and detachments' are con
stantly going to join the regiments in
the Transvaal. In view of Lord Salis
bury's open references to the possibility
of Great Britain being taken unawares
by some foreign power, this state of af
fairs in South Africa does not breed con
fidence or contentment.
In His Lordship's defense of the War
Office, many people believe they saw
open threats to Lord Wolseley, and In
the sharp retort to Lord Wolseley' s re- J
bun. jl k4iiau.sv jvi u uauouuij ui w i
tention to the enforced silence in which
Lord Lansdowne (the late Secretary 01
State for War) was obliged to stand crit
icism for the faults of the army officer.
He warned his hearers that If the criti
cism was persisted in the time might
come when his silence would be broken
and the onus laid heavily and publicly
on the right shoulders, though he depre
cated having recourse to that.
A curious feature connected with the
war was Mrs. Richard Chamberlain's vig
orous attack on the army hospitals be
fore the hospital commission last week.
The spectacle of this somewhat extraor
dinary sister-in-law of the Colonial Sec
retary sitting two hours before that
grave Tory and teaching a man like Just
Ice Rohmer his business created no little
sensation. But for the woman who took
out to South Africa 500 hot-water bags
and reorganized the charities, and who
has the reputation of being the only In
dividual ever known to affect the Judg
ment of the Chamberlain brothers., the
task was comparatively light.
The deatfc of the Maharajah of IJatalla
at Simla. November S removes one of the?
best and most Interesting products of Anglo-Indian
rule. He was the first reign
ing Prince to blend the elements of the
English gentleman and Indian potentate.
Educated at Cambridge, he returned to
Xndi and put in force in his rich kingdom
the reforms which he had cRretfuIly ab-sorbed-n
England, endowing free hos
pitals for women. establishing orphan
ages, drHiing troops; sending' them to help
a British expedition and leading them
personally. It was one of his keenest dis
appointments not to be allowed to serve
In South Africa. But he was not only a
Just and enlightened ruler. Ho became
the best polo player In India, was a fear
less ridera dead shot, wis second only
to RanjlUsinJpl at cricket, and was one
of the finest amateur billiartHsts of the
dy. The deceased was a close friend of
Lord William Bcresford. Lord Roberts,
and other well-known people. He was
pissioivaiely fond of horses, and imported
a splendid stud and an Irish expert named
Bryan to be Master of Horse at PitaJla.
With cyan went his daughter, and the
Prince fell desperately In love with her,
propo"d and was accepted. The Sikhs
murmured ind threatened revolt, and the
Imperial Government, dreading trouble,
resolved to break off the match. But both
Great Britain and his own subjects were
outwitted and eventually appeased, the
bride embracing the Sikh faith. Her
reign was short. Accompanying her hus
band during i campaign in the ley Hima
layas, she died of pneumonia. At the
head of his silent army, the Prince
brought back the body hundreds of miles
to Phalla, whre the remains were cre
mated with the Sikh rites, which this
week were accorded to himself.
The determination of the American steel
manufacturers to invade these markets
Is not apparently bothering ttoe English
trade t any groat extent. Judging from
the opinions of the master cutler of
Sheffield, the head of one of the groatest
steel rganlzjitlops in the country, who
said to'-a representative of the Aociated
"I do not believe American trade in
steel rails in England will amount to
much. Every manufacturer gets a cer
tain surplus, which, if he can find a mar
ket. Is clear profit We are getting the
American surplus, and believe they are
selling cheaper here than in their own
country When such competition becomes
serious it will be necessary for the Amer
lean manufacturers to devote more than
their surplus to the market. When they
do. I believe they will find they cannot
beat us In priees or quality on our own
ground. Business here is as good as ever,
and promises to remain so I cannot say
we have yet felt the pinch of American
rivalry."
Thomyoroft, England's torpedo-boat
builder, ' has been expressing interesting
opinions or submarine boats He does
not believe it necessary for Great Brit
ain to build submarine boats, even if the
experiments of other nations have been
quite successful. He Is carefully study
ing the problem of devising a submarine
destroyer, should it ever be necessary.
He regards the American submarine beat
as the best type yet made, but he doubts
Its efficacy, even for harbor defense.
"A shell dropped In the neighborhood of
a submarine boat," .said Mr. Thorny
croft, "and exploded either level with or
below it, would afford sufficient shock to
crumble up the boat. Possession of a
submarine boat of our own will not help
you to find an enemy's. They are at pres
ent of too limited range and Insufficient
propelling power to be a really serious
factor and the problem of keeping a level
under, water is yat to be solved. If I
ever have to go under water with a sub
marine boat, I will prefer to sit out
Bide." In spite of the pessimism of Mr. -Thorny-croft,
the Admiralty has at last decided
to grant a submarine boat, designed by
A- Howard, of Tasmania, an official trial.
One of the most Interesting house par
ties of the week was that of Lady Fer-mer-Hesketh
(formerly Miss Florence
Sharon, of San Francisco), who enter
tained among others. Lord and Lady
William Berasford
Among those returning to the United
States is Mrs. Mackay.
A novel feature of the Lord Mayor's
banquet was the appearance of the May
ors of the newly created boroughs of Lon
don. The titles sounded strange, but the
Idea reems to meet with general approval.
Among the new Mayers of London are
two Dukes, one Earl, four members of
the House of Commons and two Knights,
Tos Duke i Norfolk yn elected first
Mayor of Westminster; Earl Cardigan, 1
Mayor of Chelsea, and the Ihike of Bed
ford. Mayor of Holborn. With such aris
tocratic heads, the new City Hall may,
It is believed, bid fair to rival the Man
sion House.
XX A DELAGOA BAY PRISON.
Chicasro Doctor Want Damages,
From Portugal.
PARIS. Nov. 10. Dr.-H. L. McCaulay, of
Chicago, who has arrived In this city,
tells the representative of the Associated
Press that he Intends to present a claim
for $100,000 damages against the Portu
guese Government for imprisonment at
Lourenco Marques, as soon as he can lay
his case before the State Department at
Washington. He says he Is one of the
few Chicago members of the Red Cross
Society who refused to tear off the badge
of the organization and shoulder a rifle
In behalf of the Boers. Throughout the
war. Dr. McCauIey says, be stuck to the
ambulance and attended both Boer and
British wounded. Dr. McCaulay is very
much incensed at the treatment which he
declares Americans received at Lourenco
Marques, being singled out for arrest
among all the refugees. He himself, he
adds, was thrown into prison for six
days, finally being shipped off to Europe
via Trieste without a charge having been
made against him or being placed on trial.
All his surgical instruments and personal
effects, to the value of $700, disappeared
during his incarceration. The authorities,
Dr. McCaulay further asserts, refused to
permit him to confer wth the United
States Minister at Lisbon. Dr. McCaulay
scouts the idea that the Boers are beaten,
and says there are many surprises yet in
store for the British. He will sail for
home next week.
SPANISH-AMERICAN CONGRESS.
Non-Arrival of Delegate Indicates a
Fizzle.
MADRID, Nov. 10. Many of the dele
gates to the Spanish-American Congress
have not yet arrived here. Cuba and
Porto Rico are not represented officially,
though private corporations have sent
delegates. The non-arrival of many of
the delegates has Inspired fear that the
congress will be a "fizzle." The Liberal
sounds a not of alarm, and urges the
congress to work earnestly to secure the
unity of all the Latin people of America,
adding: "For if the labors of the con
gress are abortive, the result will be to
the advantage of the Uinted States."
Senor Campos the (Minister of Foreign
Affaire, and Senors Sllvela and Sagasta
made addresses at today's session. Gen
eral Azcarraga, the Premier, delivered
an academic discourse. The most note
worthy speeches were those of Senor Si
erra, the delegate from Mexico, and Senor
Callada, from Buenos Ayres. The former
said that If union were lacking, the Lat
in republics would be lost, and the latter
declared that every Spanish-American
ought to swear to defend his country and
race, and eulogized the Cubans and Fili
pinos for wishing to preserve Spanish na
tionality. Under-Secretary for "War.
LONDON. Nov. 10. The Associated
Press learns that Lord Raglan, a grand
son of the Crimean General of that name,
will be appointed "Under-Secretary of

-WELCOME TO BULLER.
Freedom of the City of Southampton
Conferred TTpon Him.
SOUTHAMPTON. Nov. 10. This city
was in gala attire today, and thousands
of visitors from London and elsewhere
participated in the ceremony of confer
ring the freedom of the city upon General
Buller. A civic and military escort led
the way to the scene. General Buller's
carriage was deluged with flowers. Lady
Buller accompanied General Buller.
Replying to the address of the presen
tation of the freedom of the city, the
General exhibited great emotion, and an
swered his critics vigorously. He de
clared when the history of the war was
fairly written it would be found that the
"British Army In South Africa had con
fronted difficulties far greater than any
army operating against an equally civil
ized enemy had ever previously experi
enced. He cited the Boers' superior range
of vision and familiarity with the Kaffir
language and country.
Dcvret the Real Leader.
NEW YORK, Nov. 10. A dispatch to
the1 Tribune fromLondon says:
General Dewet is now the real leader of
the Boer cause, and his prestige will be
Impaired by his recent Inglorious defeat.
A dozen other Boer Generals are still in
the field. Botha whose health Is better,
is on the veldt near Waterval, and Vil
Joen Is near him, with Delarey. Bchalk

THE BLYTHE ESTATE.
Another Claimant Appears He Is
Now in Jail.
NEW YORK. Nov. lO.-Jacob Haffner.
who has spent the greater part of the
last 15 years in states prisons, made a
statement today and produced letters and
documents concerning Thomas H. Blythe,
the muti-mlllionalre, who died in San
Francisco in 18S3. The papers were turned
over to a lawyer who has been retained
by Haffner to press his claim to a share
of the Blythe estate. These documents
Include what purports to be an original
will of "James Hey Pearcey, otherwise
known as Thomas H. Blythe," dated
March 4, 18S1. signed In the presence of
Haffner and one James Plow, of Los An
geles. Cal. This will appoints Haffner as
executor of the estate without bonds and
names as residuary legatee "adopted
daughter. Miss Florence Pearcey, other
wise known as Miss Florence Ashcroft.
now residing with her mother, Mrs. Julia
Ashcroft, at London, England." The third
article In the will reads: "I give, devise
and bequeath to my brother, Charles
Pearcey of Chicago. 530,000" It is under
this article that Haffner makes his claim
to a share of the Blythe estate.
It is on record in the probate court of
Cook County, Illinois, that Charles Pear
cey died at the West Side Hospital In 1S97.
Haffner was in Dannemora prison at the
time. Charles Pearcey had lived for sev
eral years at 221 West Madison street, in
Chicago. He was practically a hermit.
There was great surprise 'when it was
found that he had left $12,000 In United
States and Chicago City bonds. Heirs
were advertised for and Albert Pearcey,
of Glenvllle, W. "Va., who professed to be
a brother, appeared. Upon his testimony,
the property was divided share and share
alike between himself and his five broth
ers and sisters. Haffner was released
from Dannemora prison In April last,
He went to Chicago and produced what
purported to be the last will and state
ment of Charles Pearcey. He engaged
counsel and endeavored to have the estate
reopened. The lawyer carrid procedlngs to
a point where a considerable fund for
expenses was necessary, and when this
was not forthcoming dropped the matter.
This was In September last. This will,
which is now on file In Cook County.
Illinois, contains the clause: "I give,
devise and bequeath to my brother, James
H. Pearcey, known as Thomas H. Blythe.
of San Francisco, $2000." There are
other bequests amounting in all to about
510,000, and Haffner Is made residuary
legatee and executor. This will is dated
September 35, 1KW. Haffner expects to re
cover $30,000 under the will of Charles H.
Pearcey and also 530,000 from the Blythe
estate, wbloh, as he claims, was willed
to Charles H. Pearcey and should fall to
him as residuary legatee under the

NEW HAVEN, Conn.. Nov. 10. To the
surprise "of even the most ardent of her
admirers, Yale this afternoon rolled up
a score of 35 points against, the Carlisle
Indians In the annual football contest
between the teams of the two institu
tions, while the Indians failed to get
nearer Yale's goal than the 20ryard line.
Tho Yale eleven played with unusual
strength and the speed and dash of the
New Haven players was as remarkable as
their strength. The experts, however, in
commenting on the probabilities of the
coming Yale-Harvard game proclaim: that'
while Yale's work today was equal to
that of Harvard against the same team,
the Indians lacked that vigor and finish
of play that characterized their 5 to IT
effort against the Cambridge boys. Yale's
goal line was never In danger in today's
great contest. Once the Carlisle players
reached the Yale 20-yard line, there to
be held. By means of old-time Yale in
terference, Yale managed to pull off many
end runs, the dashes of Fincke and Du
pee standing out as the star events. The
sensational run of the day was that by
Fincke, the Yale half-back, in the first
half, when he seized a blocked kick and
ran behind splendid Interference 80 yards
for a touch-down. He and Dupee alter
nated with 15, 20 and '25-yards runs and
they were relieved by line plunges by
Captain Brown and Tackle Stillman. The

Iowa's first touchdown was secured after
one minute of play. Iowa scored two
more touchdowns in the second half.
By hard line bucking early In the sec
ond half. Michigan worked the ball to
Iowa's 40-yard line, only to lose It on
tlowns. Iowa then worked it right
back up the field until Edson
was hurled through the Michigan
line for the fourth down. After Michigan
had "kicked off, a splendid SS-yard run
around the end by Morton put the ball
on Michigan's 10-yard line, and Morton
carried it over for Iowa's fifth touch
down. Iowa held for downs on her 30
yard line, and when Bhe punted out,
Weber had a fair catch. An Iowan
tackled him, however, as he caught the
ball, and the referee penalized Iowa 10
yards and gave Michigan a plaoe kick.

Michigan was saved the Ignominy of a

North-western, 5; Chicago, O.
CHICAGO. Nov. 10. Northwestern de
feated the University of Chicago today by
a score of 5 to 0. As a result of this de
feat of Chicago, the Northwestern adher
ents base a claim on the Western cham
pionship for 1800. fn the first half, the
game was all In favor of Northwestern,
the hall being in Chicago's territory most
of the time. Twice the ball was car
ried to within Chicago's 10-yard line, only
to be lost on downs. The ball was In
Northwestern's territory most of the sec
ond half. Two off-side plays by Chi
cago and pounding of the Chicago line
with the Northwestern' s tandem forma
tion brought the ball to Chicago's seven
yard line and G. Dletz was pushed
through the line for a touch-down. Hunt
er missed a difficult goal from the 35
yard line.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.. Nov. 10. Min

feat to the 'Illinois eleven on Northrop
Field this afternoon. In the first half,
Minnesota did not put up vry good ball
and Illinois succeeded in holding the score
down to 6 to 0. In the second half, Minne
sota played a harder game and succeeded
In sending Hoyt and Fee over for touch
downs and Knowlton kicked a pretty goal
from the 20-yard line. Knowlton kicked
all three of the goals, making the Bcore
23 to 0 in Minnesota's favor.
Harvard, 11 J Brovra, 6.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. jo. Harvard
defeated Brown at football this afternoon
on Soldiers Field by a score of 11 to 5.
The very poor showing of Harvard was

COST OF SKILLED TREATMENT UNDER THE COPELAND SYSTEM
Chronic Sufferers Properly Cared For at Actually Less Than One-Fifth
the Usual Outlay Superior Efficiency of the System-Now
.Quite Generally Conceded.
The Copeland physicians. In
their conscientious effort to
provide for the proper care and
treatment of chronic diseases,
generally, at fees which are less
than oneflfth of those usually
exacted and less than one
tenth of thbse too frequently
exacted, have not been unmind
ful of the following points:
First, that the people of the
great main body of society
stood in deep and urgent need
of some such reformatory
measure; that the awful fre
quency with which chronic in
valids sink Hopelessly and help
lessly down to death from
sheer Inability to secure the
attentive and continuous help
of those physicians who make
a study and a specialty of
chronic infirmities was in lt
self an appeal to the humanity
of the medical profession which
could not be, overlooked with
out the Incurrence of a fright
ful responsibility for wholly un
necessary loss of human life.
Second, the Copeland physi
cians bore in mind that the true
public spirit, not to say the
true and pure humanity, of pro
fessional services offered to all
sufferers at strictly nominal ex
pense, must of necessity depend
on the worth or the worthless-

Woodlawn, in speaking of his trouble,
said:
"I have always enjoyed fairly good
health up to within five or six months
ago, when I was attacked by that
terrible disease, Rheumatism,
which almost finished me. The tor
tures and suffering that I endured for a
short time I cannot find words to ex
press. -I was confined to my bed for al
most a week and to the house much
longer. I could not .mo-re without
excruciating: pain, and so great was
my suffering that I could get out littls
rest and had ho appetite to eat. In this
condition, I rapidly lost strength and my
geheral condition was very feeble.
"My wife had been treated by the Cope
land physicians. In fact, many of our
relatives had been under their care, and
it was In this way I decided to entrust
my case to them. The results have been
most gratifying. They soon had the
dlHeanc under control, nnd I am
now entirely free from It. I am al
ways glad to recommend the Copeland
physicians. I like tholr way of conduct
ing their business and their arrange
ment of charging a monthly fee, wheh
Includes all medicines, and as many visits
to their office as are necessary. It is
certainly a blessing to those who work
on a salary and have a family to take
care of,"

during the past year. Speaking of the
general operations in the Department of
Alaska, he says:
"Major G. S. Bingham, Quartermaster
of Volunteers, was on February 9, 1S0O,
assigned to duty as Chief QuaTtermas.

new of the services thus of
fered. This is a point so clear
as to hardly need illustration.
Should any libertine or hypo
crite volunteer to preach the
gospel, or any simpleton or
criminal volunteer to assuma
tho education of little boys and,
girls, or any drunken pilot vol
unteer to hold imperiled ships
against the wrath and fury of

"pay," such offer would not
imply any spirit of Christian

The Copeland physicians,
therefore, simply leave the

so closely related. The Cope
