'Inew York, Nov. 24. A dispatch ' to the Tribune from London says: Long after midnight an official dis patch was received at the war office bringing news of a battle fought by i Qeneral Methuen at Belmont, with the .Free Staters, the result being a com plete viotory for the Klmberley relief : oolumn.

Manila, Nov. 26. The news which the steamship Brutus brings from Dagupan dispels all doubts that tbe so-called Filipino republic is crumb ling like the house of cards. Aguinaldo is deserted or being abandoned by tbe politicians and the man which a fort night ago was entrenched at Tariac and exercised de facto government over nine-tenths of the people of Lu zon is a fugitive in the mountains, with small hopes of establishing the machine. The army is scattered in the hills on both sides of tbe railroad and widely seperated detachments are within tbe cordon whk-h General Law- ton and General Wheaton have ce mented. The ruling spirit of the cabinet is a prisioner in Manila a white elephant on the bands of the authorities and the small fry are tumbling oyer one another to get to Manila. Three provisional governors have arrived in Manila to request General Otis to install them in their old offices under the new regime. Dr. Luna, a brother of General Luna, and a prom inent Insurrectionist, has arrived here and bis friends and many others are applying to General Otis for perm is sioo to enjoy the luxuries of Manila. The only large force of insurgents known to remain are those in Cavite province at San Mateo and in Sambles mountains, though several seaports have large garrisons. . Aguinaldo began bis retreat with 2000 men under General Gregeria del Pilar. That force was probably brought to its present proportions by deeertion. The lasfdeflnite news as to Aguinaldo's whereabouts is that he sed through Trinidad, east . of Aringay toward Bacombong, escorted by 200 men of the Bulacan battalion which had dwindled from 600 within a week.

( hey An Mqt Kaeoarwced. by tha-.News That Comes From Natal. LONDON. Nov. 26. The position in Natal remains full of perplexities. which the . oet sorship has increased. Although a division and a half have now reached Durban, that place is praotically powerless until , supplied with cavalry and artillery, and until these arrive the situation will un doubtedly remain grave. . , With three beleaguered garrisons In Natal, besides Kimberly and Mafeking and no signs of suooqr in the immedi ate future,, it is no wonder that tbe outlook is regarded as distinctly gloomy and that the most possible is made of General Methuen 's success, suob as it was. , That battle decided nothing, and it seems certain that many experts are of the opinion' that the story of the return of the pursuing cavalry, with out getting in touch with the retreat ing-Boers, indicates that the cavalry discovered in time that if it had gone on it would: soon have been on tbe Pretoria race course with its comrades of the hussars. It will not surprise any one greatly if the Boers are short ly again discovered in an entrenched position near the spot .from which General Methuen had just . evicted 1 them.

Tbe Midskipiu an Wha "Wmm orn TIsMys Believed ta B la i Spain Now. taa wqen, in February last, tbe now wrecked and stranded but then pov erful Spanish cruiser vizcaya paid a visit to New York the naval authorities took the most careful precautions to insure her safety. The Maine, it will be .remembered, had' been blown np a few days before her arrival. The commander of the Vizcaya, Capt. Eu- late, protested against these precau tions, declaring in the strongest terms that he was willing to trust his ship unguarded in this harbor. To the re porters who visited him on the ship be recalled the many years of peace and amity that had existed between the two nations, and then, struck by an inspiration, he ordered to the quar ter-deck a young- midshipman, . and. pointing to him, asked the reporters how two nations could ever be other than friends when each had raised a Farragut. One was already immor talized, he said; the other had yet to how by deeds of valor that the real Farragut blood was in him. Capt. Eulate, becoming enthusiastic as the picturesqueness of the situation developed, went on to explain that his young midshipman was Sanchez Far ragut, who was born in Minorca, off the coast of Spain, whence the great American admiral's progenitors had come. He had no doubt that his yo une sailor was of the real Farragut stock. 'Ine vizcaya sailed away and in the excitement of the war that followed Mr. Midshipman Farragut was all but forgotten. Following the destruction of Admiral Cervera's squadron and the capture of so many prisoners, the few who remembered the Farragut inci dent looked in vain for a line about the fate of young Farragut. Weeks passed and the great naval battle bade fair to pass into history without the mystery being solved, until one who remembered the incident on the deck f the Vizcaya in New York harbor wrote an inquiry to Admiral Cervera at 'the naval academy, Annapolis. ?The incident doubtless interested thi admiral, for Le took pains to make inquiries. The result was that he re plied through the medium of Lieu tenant Commander E. K. Moore, as sistant to .the superintendent of the naval academy, that upon the arrival of. the Vizcaya at Havana, to which port the warship went after leaving "New York, young Farragut was taken ill. Later he was sent to the naval hos pital in Havana,, and the Vizcaya sailed for the Cape Verde islands to join. Ad miral Cervera's squadron and Farra gut was left behind. To the best of the admiral's knowledge and belief, Lieut. Moore wrote, Farragut was sent back to Spain. At all events he did not re join his ship, and consequen tl y was not in the battle of Santiago. X. Y.-Sun. Clark & Falk's flavoriug extracts are fresh and pure. Ask your grocer for them . GROWTH OF FLAX IN INDIA. Tbe Flaunt la Beared Exclusively for the Seed aad Not for Fiber. r,n-nnT,ioTirnl Patterson, at Cal- " - cutta, in a report to the department of state, notes a curious fact about flax growing, reports the St. Louis uiODe Tie wTites: "In answer to an inquiry from a Chicago firm relative to the quantity oi uax prwuutu uv. exported from India, I would say that flax is grown in India exclusively for the seed.' In no part of -the. country is fihe,. -rvroflnpprl- Exneriments have been made for many years with the same result, viz., tnat it is no prom that a plant can be made to yield a fiber because it can be grown in a country. Flax, hemp and china grass are admirable samples of this fact. The' possible area of fiber production of any of these in India is extremely narrow. Hemp yields fiber in Euseia and other countries and cannot be made to produce the narcotic In In dia the very reverse is the case, except in a small portion of the Himalayas, where it yields admirable fiber and no narcotic to speak of. While large areas of flax are .cultivated in almost every part of India and Burmah, it is grown only tor the seed, of which large quan tities are exported, and not for fiber, and there is no flax exported from In dia."
