Wolsclcy linmcdiatcly Summoned
General Stewart hitc.
IiONDOX, Sept. 14 A forecast of the
TrnHHViinl'u reply to the laBt note of the
Hrltieh eccretary of state for the colonies,
Mr. Chatnhurlaln, now under discussion
by the volksraad, Iiqh been received by
Fecretary Chamberlain, but its nature Ib
tint known.
At the colonial ofllep, a representative
of tin.' Associated I'reea was lnforiued
that nothing will b t;lven out for the
present. It wiih regarded as significant,
liuR'ever, thut the nnture of the Boer
reply wiih communicated to the commander-in-chief,
Field MarBhal Lord
Wolm'Iey, who Immediately summoned
General Stewart White, former quurter-muster-general,
who Ib the prospective
coiiimuiultT of the British forces in
Nat.il.
Tim South Alricnn advices are most
conllictliig regarding the tenor of
Kruper's inessngo of reply to Chamber
lain. The Morning Post, in its second
edition, prints a special dispatch from
l'luturniaritzburg, the capital of Natal,
saying that the reply is "truculent,
loquacious and blasphemous." Tito Man
chester Guardian's correspondent at
Capetown telegraphs saying that the
outlook is of the gloomiest character.
CaKitowii papers themselves tnke a
more hopeful view of the situation, baE
iuR their belief on the probable ac
ceptance by Kruger of the franchise
meaeureo suggested in Chamberlain's
latent dispatch. But even they admit it
io inipoeslble to learn or foreshadow
Krugr'd attitude towards the suzerainty
of Great Britain, w liicb, after all, is still
the main issue. Whatever the nature
of Krugur'a reply, it Is probable that
several more stages of diplomatic pro
ws will hu gone through with before
there in definite war or peace, unless of
counw, Kruger should take the Initiative
and raid Natal. It is the possibility of
this movu that wakes definite news of
lit) reply ho eagerly and anxiously await

There iB more Catarrli in this section
of the country tlmn all othe disenses put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to lie incurable. For n
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
It incurable. Science has proyen catarrh
tobe a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.

F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the murket.

A DISASTROUS
TRAIN WRECK
North Bound Passenger Crashed Into
Caboose of Accomodation Train, at
Formosa, .Near Bakersfield.
Bakekhfieli), Cal., Sept. 14. A disas
trous wreck occurred at I-ormosa late
ast night. A north-bound Southern
aciflc nasseneer train ran into and tele
scoped the caboose of the Porterville ac
commodation train. The killed are:
Mrs. Maggie Majorp.of Los Angeles.
A woman supposed to be Mrs. Larue,
of Porterville.
The Porterville accommodation train
came in from Porterville and left the ca
boose on the main line while the enuine
and crew went in on the siding to pick
ui some cars. J. he ladles who were
killed boarded the caboose as it stood in
front of the depot and took their seats.
The eneine and some cars were nut
beiuir eouuled to the caboose when the
craeh came. The heavy passenger engine
tore through the caboose as II it were
cardboard, and tiie hapless inmates were
crushed and thrown aside. J. lie mail ana
baggage and express care were derailed
and served to prevent the heavy train
from telescoping by actlug as a bulfer to
diminish the force of the impact of the
train against the mass of wreckage in
front,
The passengers on the north-bound
train were shaken up Hud bruised by the
jar of the collision and an arm of one
man was broken. Engineer Wright was
badlv scalded by the bursting of the in
jector pipes, but he will probably re
cover. The bodies of the women wuo
were killed were terribly mangled.
The disaster Is attributed to the fact
that the caboose of the Porterville train
was left ou the main track, which should
have been left clear for the passenger
train from the south.

From the Times, Hillstlllc, Vn.
I suffered with diarrhoea for a long
time and thought I was past being cured.
I had spent much time and money Bud
suffered so much misery that I had al
most decided to give up all hopes of re
covery and await the result, but notic
ing the advertisement of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera nnd Diarrhoea Keniedy
and also some testimonials stating how
some wonderful cures had been wrought
by this remedy, I decided to try it
After taking a few doses I was entirely
well ot that trouble, and I wish to say
further to my readers and fellow-sufferers
that I nui a hale and hearty man to
day and feel as well aB I ever did in my
life. 0. R. Moore. Sold by Blakeley &

sample ore from his ledge in that dis

ore was taken from a one-foot streak in
a three-foot vein. The whole vein as
says well, but the one-foct streak goes

and the expenditure of considerable
money in development work he has
made a strike which will repay him.

A startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
"I was in a most dreadful condition. My
Bkin was almost yellow, eyes sunken,
tongue coated, pain continually in back
and sldee, no appetite gradually grow
ing weaker day by day. Three physi
cians had given me up. Fortunately, a
triend advised 'Electric Bitters' ; and to
my great joy and surprise, the first
bottle made a decided improvement. I
continued their use for three weeks, and
am now a well man. I know they saved
my life, and robbed the grave of another
victim." No one should fail to try them.

Refused to Interfere.
New Youk, Sept. 14. A dispatch to
the World from London says: The Brit
ish local officials have declined to take
any action upon the United States Con
buI Wildman's protest against the de
tention of the American transport Tar
tar. This leaves the matter entirely in
the hands of the Hong Kong harbor
master, who positively declines to allow
the transport to sail with more than 750
soldiers on board. If the Tartar sails
under this restriction a lrge number of
the Kansas volunteers will be lei t behind.
Many of these volunteers have been
permitted to come ashore from the Tar
tar. Some of them met a man named
Ktzel, who it was said had taught the
Filipinos how to use machine guns.
There was a row, the Americans threaten
ing Etzel, and he appealed to the police
for protection. This was aecorded him
and the soldieis returned to the ehip.
