PLANS TO
CONQUERNATAL
Such a Movement is Regarded as More
Daring Than Shernian'sjMarch to
the Sea.
Lo.vno.v, Nov. 0. Tho movement of
Hours in Capo Colony 1b beginning to
awaken British fears that they huve
greatly underestimated tliu forces they
will have to in net, mid that General
Butler's tusk is not so easy as antici
pated. It is becoming apparent that all
British c.tlcuhitionslbasod on the loyalty
of the population are hopelessly nt sen,
or there has been a very serious, leakage
of Dutch sympathizers from Natal and
Cnpo Colony.
Otherwise there is no accounting for
the large iorces of burghers reported
from all directions. The war office is
consequently being urged to have more
troops in readiness for all possible de
mands. London, Nov. 6. An immense weight
was lifted from the public mind by the
brief dispatch published this morning
by which the continental storied of dis
aster at Ladysmith wero proved to be
false, although the diepatch itself re
vived anxiety of the timid in another
direction, as it indicated that General
White, Instead of Bitting quietly end
acting only on the defensive, us it is
held in many quarters he ought to do,
persists in making sorties and risking
another Nicholseu'j Nek disaster.
Generally, however, .the cheery tone
of tho dispatch showing there is no
anxiety ut Ladysmith as regards the
ability of the beleagured garrison to
hold its own, has had an excellent effect
on the country. From the fact that
Wiiite is able to take tho offensive and
shell the Boer camp, it seems Ladysmith
is not so closely bealegc-d as was sup
posed. Not much importance, however, is
attached to the shelling of the Boer
laager, as the war office has no confir
mation of the story that the Orange
Froo Staters' camp at Besters has been
captured. Were this true, it might have
considerable effect on the futuie atti
tude of the Orange Free State, which is
not so directly concerned in the conflict
mb the Transvaal.
The evacuation of Colenso and reported
withdrawal of the British from Storm
burger is still unexplained. The former
may be due to either the Boer artillery
rendering the place untenable or to the
fact that pressure elsewhere, possibly .at
I'itermaritzburg, has necessitated con
centration at the threatened point of all
available troops. With regard to Storm
berg, it is claimed that if it turns out to
bo true tiiat the place has been evacuated
it may either be due to impossibility at
present of providing an adequate garrison
to defend such important supplies against
Boer raids, or to a change in Buller's
plans, whereby General Menhulue'a
division will be landed at Dunham to
relieve General White.
If the latter plan is decided on, the
nearest available Btoresaru ut Stormberg
and the quickest method of making the
necessary provision for advance will be
to railroad these stores to East London,
whence they would reach Durban before
the first troopship,

Mr. J, E. Lilly, a prominent citizen
of Httunibal, Mo., lately had a wonder
ful deliverance from n frightful death.
In telling of it ho says: "I was tuken
with typhoid fever, that ran into pneu

was so weak I couldn't even sit up in
bud. Nothing helped me. I expected
to soon die of consumption, when I
heard of Dr. Klug's New Discovery.

Americans Approaching Bayamliaiig,
Where He Was Located Up
to a Fortnight Ago,
HIS ESCAPE
IS IMPOSSIBLE
News of a Big Engagement is Expected
at Any Moment, and Sanguine
Officials Assert Tbat War May Be
Ended by the Close of the Present
Month.
New Yokk, Nov. C. A special to the
Herald from Washington says: With
forces aggregating more than 30,000
fighting men, Generals Lawton, Mc
Arthur and Wheaton are now closing in
on Aguiualdo's army. General Otis
set November 5 and 0 as the dates for
commencing the campaign "all along
the line," and the war department has
information today that the programme
is being carried out. General Otis' dis
patches are optimistic in the highest
degree, and the officials are predicting
that the rebellion will be crushed before
the end of the present month, and that
important victories will be announced
within a few days.
New- Yobk, Nov. 6. A special to the
Herald says :
The military situation was thus ana
lyzed today by an official familiar with
General OMb plan of operation, as re
ported to the war department-
"Aguinaldo, with his army greatly re
duced, owing to recent disintegrations,
is at Bayambang, twenty miles nortti of
Tarl&c, which was his headquarters and
the objective of Lawton's and Muc-
Arthur'B armies up to a fortnight ago.
"General MacArthur moves north
ward along the railroad to Bayambang.
General Lawton moves northward from
Colanatuan as bis base' and witli columns
swerving to the light and left to sweep
the country to the Kio Agno river, and
to head off Aguiualdo's escape to the
mountains through Rio Agno valley.
"General Wheaton moves southward
from Dagupan to Bayambang. His move
ments up to this time have been kept
from the public, but now that the cam
paign is in progress, I am at liberty to
mention that he headed an expedition
sent out on transports for the Gulf of
Liugayeu last week. The navy's task
was to shell the towns on the southern
part of the gulf, so as to effect the safe
lauding of his expedition.
"Unless Aguinaldo has escaped to the
eastward through the Rio Agno valley,
he ought to be caught between General
Wheaton's forceB from the north and
General MaeArthur'e from the south
within the next forty-eight hours, as
Bayambang, where he is supposed to be
located, is less than twenty miles from
Dagupan and about forty miles from
Angeles."
It will not be a surprise to any who
are at all familiar with the good qualities
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, to
know that people everywhere take
pleasure in relating their experience in
the use of that splendid medicine and
in telling of the benefit they have re
ceived from it, of had colds it lias cured,
of threatened attacks of pneumonia It
has averted and of the" children it has
saved from attacks of croup and whoop-"
Ing cough. It is a grand, good medicine.
