GENERAL DELAREY
FORCES A BATTLE
Attacks the Hrittsli Forces Under Gener
al Dixon at Vladfontein, Indict
ing Heavy Loss.
London, May lit. Tho war office to
day gave out tliu following dispatch from
Lord Kitchener, dated Pretoria, May
::oth :
"General Dixon's force at Vladfontein
waB attacked yesterday by De'arey's
forces, and there was eeyere fighting.
The enemy was eventually driven off
with heavy lo9H, leaving thirty-live dead.
1 regret that our carnalities also were
neverit. Tlie killed and wounded num
bered 174. Four oflicerfl were killed."
On the anniversary of Lord Roberta'
entry into JohautiOBburg the country has
been Hturtled by the news of dea orate
lighting and heavy British losses within
forty miles of the gold-reef city. The
battle at Vladfontein, on the Durban
Johannesburg railroad, reported by Lord
Kitchener today, is the most serious
uiigrgemont since General Clement's re
verse at Nagalieaburg. It shows General
Dolarey is in no way duunted by the
capture of eleven of his guns by General
Babiugton six weeks ago. The garrison
of Vludfontoin, apparently largely com
posed of yeomanry, sullVred 174 casual
ties. That their ussHilanta eamn to close
quarters and sull'ered heavy loss is shown
by the number of (lend left on the Held.

St. Paul, May ill. Hy a unanimous
vote the Aasociation of Military Surgeons
in session here today passed a resolution
in favor of the repeal of the anti-canteen
law. The subject was introduced with
the resolution in ft paper by Lieutenant
Louis L. Seaman, late of the First United
States Volunteer Engineers. A supple
mentary resolution by Colonel Reed, of
Wyoming, constitutea every delegate a
committee to see the congressmen Irom
his own state and provide for a com
mittee of three to labor with congress.
This last committee is to act with the
legislation committee of the American
Modlcal Association. The association
claims that intemperance and disorder
have increased since the abolition of the
canteen, and recommends Its re-establish
ment on grounds of "sanitation, morality
and discipline."

CUBA'S ACTION IS
NOT SATISFACTORY
Administration Decides the Convention
Must Accept the Piatt Amendment
Without Reservation.
Washington, May 31. The adminis
tration has decided that ttie action of
the Cabin constitutional convention in
accepting the terms of the Piatt amend
ment with modifications and interpreta
tions of their own, is not "substantial"
compliances with our terms within the
meaning of the amendment, and Secre
tary Root will convey the intelligence to
the convention.
The decision was reached at the cabinet
meeting today. The meeting lasted over
an hour and a half, and had been pre
ceded by an hour's conference between
the president and Senators Piatt, of
Connecticut, and Lodge, of Massachus
etts. As the author of the amendment,
the president desired to learn the views
of Senator Piatt and also those of Sen
ator Lodge, who ia one of the influential
members of the committee on foreign
relations.
At the cabinet meeting Secretary Root
took the position that the interpretations
of the Piatt amendment contained in the
constitution adopted by the convention,
and the whereases appended to it, go
outside of a fair intrepretation of its
meaning and are unacceptable. In this
view the cabinet concurred.
When asked as to what would be the
nexttotep of the government after the
Cuban convention had been notified jl
the rejection of its action, one of the
members of the cabinet eaid that the
government could do nothing further
until the convention shall again act, that
as long as the conditions of the Piatt
amendment are on the Btatute books,
compliance with them must precede our
relinquishment of control over the island.
Our usually quiet and peaceful burg
was enlivened last Saturday by a three
handed b'irht between a citizen of Tygh
Ridge on one side and two Ramseyites
on the other, frays the Dufur Dispatch,
the Doint of difference arising from an
argument relative to the merits of a
Drominent attorney of The Dalles. The
question was brought up during a dis
cussion of the Bruner murder case.
Three spirited rounds were fought, each
round resulting in a decisive victory for
the Tygh Ridger, who championed the
attorney's side of the argument.
