WAR IS INEVITABLE
Neither Side in a Posi
tion to Baek Down.
New York, Sept. 22 A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says: The
correspondence between Sir Alfred
Milner a'-d President Sieyn strength
ens the current belief here that to
morrow's cabinet council will decite
to send out from 10.000 to 20.000 addi
tional troops to South Africa and
leave all question? of diplomacy open
until their arrival.
Meanwhile the Orange Free State's
leaders and the Afrikanderbund will
bestir themselves to keep peace be-
tween England and the Transvaal, and
will -Jhave-.-the-best' wishes of the
- English conservatives like Sir Edward
Clarke, who are hopiog that war may
be averted. Leading financiers in the
city are convinced that war is inevi
table, since neither Presidnt Kruger
nor M. Chamberlain can retreat with
honor, and there is no other way out
of it. That this is the commonest ex
pre8sion heard in Lombard street, that
each side has gone too far to turn back
and hence there is nothing to do but
to fight it out.
- An experienced banker remarked
that the government here is waiting
In order to put all the reinforcements
ashore, and the boers are holding
back for rain which will give water
and grass on the veldt for their
cavalry, a-d that in tne course of six
weeks there will be a quick three
week's campaign.
Mr. Chamberlain will provide a
draft of an alternative policy when
the cabinet meets, and his friends as
sert that it will turn on the pivot of j
the paramount authority of the British
government in South Africa. Rumors
that the Transvaal govern meet wili be
asked to disarm and abandon its linen
of fortifications in Pretoria and
Johannesburg, are premature, but not
unfounded Mr. Chamberlain keeps
his own counsel and shows no sign
by which the next movement' in the
game can be anticipated.

. '. , . Seat. . ..
I ' New Yoek, Sept. 22. A dispatch to
- the Times from Washington says: A
'; dispatch received at the navy depart-
, ment from Bear-Admiral Howison is
i , worying the officials there. Admiral
r Howison, entirely unconscious of the
j consternation that his news will carry
!,. to those who have been asserting that
' ho will not get to New York until
r after the reception to Admiral Dewey,
j- announces in this message that he has
left Barbadoes on the Chicago for
'( New York.
', This is the last thing that the friends
j of Admiral Sampson wanted. Every
!. thing has been arranged to have Samp
j" son, in his capacity as the hero and
i victor of Santiago, greet his brother
f, hero of Manila. Admiral Schley will
' '. be in New York at that time, but in no
official capacity. He will be there
simply because, as an American citizen,
! he has an inalienable right to stand on
! the sidewalk and see Dewey go by.
' Nothing had occured to mar tU spect
? acle of one hero greeting another and
welcoming him home until bis disquiet
ing news was received from Howison.
j Howison is Sampson senior and if he
i gets there before the celebration he
will outrank that officer and take com
mand. The naval regulations reduire
it. Howison is simply an old friend of
Dewey and would like to be on hand
when his friend has his triumph.
The navy department officials have
painted, whenever his. danger was sng
gessed, to Howison 'a itinerary, which
calls for his arrival at New York on
October 5, and have confidently pro
claimed that he will get there before
then, ' notwithstanding the fact that
Howison has beeu ahead of his schedule
right along. They are now busy en
gaged in figuring out that he cannot
get to Tompkinsville in less than
eight days, but others think he can do
it easily in seven. "
Death of General Ulloa.
New York, Sept. 22 A dispatch
from Panama to the Herald says:
Word comes from Buenaventuro that
General Ramon . Ulloa, commander of
the Columbian gunboat B.iyaea, diecr
at that port Monday. No further de
tails have yet been received. The
news caused mucn grief here, as Gen
eral Ulloa was universally esteemed
and exceedingly popular.- He was of
ten called the "Hero of Colon, for
defeating Prestan, the leader of the
revolutionists, in 1885, when 'as a
colonel leading a detachment of the
Columbian army, be recaptured Colon
and routed the revolutionists, being
himself severely wounded in one leg.
The state department and com
mander of the American . warship in
'Colon gave General Ulloa well-merited
praise for his bravery. He was once
consul-general in San Francisco, an4
for several years served as secretary
of legation and charge d afftirs in
Rome. In his native state, Cauca, he
occupied at different times important
civil and military positions.
Only One Candidate.
San Domingo, Sept. 22. A war
ship from Porto Rico with 40 political
exiles on board arrived here today.
The return of exiles aroused much
enthusiam among the populace.
The decree of the government fixing
October 6 to October 8 for primary
elections and providing for the meet
ing of the electoral college during the
last week of October, although a
revolutionary action and against the
constitution, has been well received.
The "government's action was ratified
by a popular demonstration, ciowds
-crying "Down with the constitution."
There was apparently no opposition to
the decree. Officers will be elected
for the full term of four years.
Jimenes is the only candidate for
the presidency of the republic.
Progress of the Kevolatlon.
New York, Sept. 22. A dispatch to
i(he Herald from port of Spain,Trinidad
f
says': The Venezuelan government is
concentrating its eastern forces
Guy am to meet the revolutionist troops
under General Mata. A decisive en
pagement is expected to take place
very soon. It is reported that the rea'
son President Andrade returded to
Caracas was that he feared treache
on the part of the two generals who
are believed to be in sympathy with
the revolutionists.
THE TRANSVAAL PROBLEM.
There Will Be War Unless Kroger Backs
Down
London, Sept. 24. Never at any
stage of the Transvaal crisis has peace
or war rested so entirely within the
bands of President Kruger. Tha longer
be delays precipitating a definite isue,
the better are the chances for peace.
He now knows to what extent be can
rely on sections of South Africa to up
hold him, and be realizes that the Brit
ish will, if possible, avoid a conflict
until the last transport lands her men.
and he is too wily a leader not to know
the military advantage that comes to
the aggressor. He appeals to the for
eign powers to intervene have appar
ently been hopeless, but bis efforts to
drag in the Orange Free state have
been successful, and if he honestly in
tends to defy Great Britiao he never
will have a better opportunity than at
present.
It is such reasoning which is utter
most in the minds of the thinking
British, and which prompt them to
fear that beforn next week's cabinet
meeting the Boers will have passed
oyer Natal's Border. If they have not,
there will be much grounds for believ
ing President Kruger intend. an ulti
mate backdown, though whether be is
strong enough to carry his people, with
him in such action is opera to great
doubts.
The cabinet council merely verifies J
he logical 'supposition that Great
Britian will issue no hostile ultimatum
ur, ill she is in a position to back it
up.
1 he impression that war is inevitable,
which is now fairly general, is based
almost solely upon the belief that the
Boers will not submit, while it is impos
sible for Great Britian to recede from
the position which the secretary of
state for the colonies, Joseph Chamber
lain, brought about.
WHEELER WANTED CAVALRY
But None Was on Band to Prevent Reas
sembling of Kebels.'
New York, Sept. 24. A dispatch to
the World, from Manila, September 19,
via Hong Kong, says: General Joseph
Wheeler, after a skirmish at Para,
telegraphed to General -Otis, asking
the latter to send cavalry for the pur
pose of presenting a reassembling of
the insurgents: General Otis replied
that be . could not send the cavalry
until October.
Three attemps have been made to
assassinate Tavera: the leader of the
pro-American Filipinos.
There is a growing feeling among
military men and the native police that
the natives judges are unreliable. An
inquiry is now proceeding.
Commercial dislocations has resulted
in Manila because the goods ordinarily
procured here are' unobtained, since
the provinces bave been disturbed.
Nowadays the goods are only obtain
able from abroad.
The Filipino newspaper, Independ
ent, says insurgents preprations are
to abandon Tarlac, if necessary.
Aguinaldo's forces, this organ says,
will be able to continue their Fabian
tactics, successfuly, exhausting the
Americans troops more easily than the
Romans wore out Hannibal.

they were not satisfied with the min
er in which his order to have the
ships for the Thirty fifth regiment
fitted out at Portland bad been disre
garded. The explanation was that
elay would occur if the supplies ha3
been procured at Portland.
Then came up the matter of sending
ship carrying animals arid other
carrying supplies. Colonel liiru, tu
charge of transports, was called in,
nd said an animal-shin could -not be
tted out at. Portland. The secretary
was assured by the Oregon men that
such a statement was ..nonsense us a
city which built shins for the govern
ment and the Pacific trade could re
moddel aod refit a ship for' any pur
pose. The result was that Quarter
master Jacobs, at Vancouver, was in
structed to see if a ship could be pro
cured to carry grain forage and com
missary in supplies to Manila, and
also to see if the Lennox could be
chartered and fitted to carry 350 ani

THE GREAT INLAW JJ sua.
Bow Marine Animals Were Corralled
After tne Water Dried TJp
Agei Ago.
In the latter part of the Mesozoic
age there was a great inland ocean,
spreading over a large part of the
present continent. The lands then
above water were covered with a flora
peculiar to the times ,and were inhab
ited by some of the animals which
later distinguished the Cenozoic age,
says the Popular Science Monthly. In
the seas were reptiles, fishe3 and tur
tles of gigantic proportions, armed for
offense or defense. There were also
oysterlike bivalves, with enormous
shells, three or four feet in diameter,
the meat - of which would have fed
many people. In time this great ocean,
swarming with vigorous life, disap
peared. Mountain ranges and plains gradual
ly arose, casting forth the waters and
leaving the monsters' to die and bleach
in tertiary suns. As the waters re
maining divided into smaller tracts
they gradually lost their saline stabile
ity. The stronger monsters gorged
on the weaker tribes, until they, too,
stranded on rising sandbars or lost
vitality and perished as the waters
freshened. In imagination we can pic
ture the strongest, bereft of their food
supply at last and floundering in shal
low pools until all remained mired or
starved. It would be interesting to
know how much of the great cre
taceous ocean forms a part, if any, of
the vast oceans of to-day.
A Dewey Story.
Admiral Dewey was always a strict
disciplinarian, and1 occasionally in
flicts punishment in curious ways.
Once while in a foreign port he sudden
ly ordered the heaviest tackle to be
gotten out of the hold without delay.
After two hours' work his order was
carried out, and he then directed that
a large chew of tobacco which had been
thrown under one of the guns be
hoisted overboard. Never again on
that cruise was such an unpardonable
offense committed. .
Secret Order.
It is stated that there are in the
United States over 50 distinct secret
orders, with over 70,000 lodges, and
5,500.000 members.
No Flies on Tills Man.
Benjamin Berdell, a wandering clock
repairer, is death on flies. Three years
ago, when at Kahway, N. J., during a
storm he was picking cherries, when
;he tree was struck by lightning. Ber
lell received a severe shock. It trans
formed him into an electric man. Any
ne who shakes hands with him now
receives a severe shock. By pressing
the blades of a knife between his
thumb and finger during a storm, he
charges the metal so strongly that
ieavy weights can be lifted. When
flies alight upon him they drop dead.
When he is in a dark room sparks flash
from his flesh and his eyes shine like
incandescent lights. Whenever a
storm approaches Berdell becomes
highly charged with electricity, and it
is dangerous to touch him. He says
that he feels no inconvenience except
that he will not go near a moving loco
motive for fear of being drawn against
it and killed. N. Y. Press.
