While the rumors of the relief of Kimberley current on the stook exchange today may be pre mature in their literal senge, there seems no doubt that the pressure on the garrison has been much lightened by General Methuen's successes and the actual relief of the place is likely to be a fact very soon. A clew to . the urgent reasons which dictated General Methuen's hurried march may be found in Governor Milner's hint to the relief committee at Cape Town to prepare for the reception of 10,000 refugees, and indicating that the garrison must have had reasons to fear the reduction of Kimberley by starvation and disease. The most recent news from Kimber ley and Mafeking are acting in concert with General Methuen, for at the time the battle was raging at Gras Pan, both Colonel Kekewlch and Colonel Baden Powell made sorties and assailed the beleaguers. The result, from Pretoria: Colonel Kekewick inflicted conslder ' able loss on the Boers, two shells kil ling nine and wounding 17 in a group. It is reported that General Methuen resumed his northwest oourse in order to form a junction with the Kimberley forces Saturday or Sunday.

The chair man of the populist, democrat and sil ver republican county central com mi t fcRA have each called committee meet ing to be held in this city December 16. It is understood that the object of the meeting so early is to agree on . some nlan of running a fusion or union tuket next spring. Some populists favor inviting the middle-of-the-road-ere to join the combination, an J hold one set of primaries and one conven tion to nominate one ticket on one platform. Two year ago the populists, rinmno.rats and silver republican nom inated a fusion ticket and elected about half of the county officers, and a silver republican to the legislature. Trouble Ahead. Chicago, Dec 1. A special to the Tribune from Washington says that inquiry among the foreign representa tives develops the fact that the "open door" policy of the administration has received a check from European powers They were asked for written assurances that in case of a partion of China they would maintain an "open door" policy in their respective sphere of influence, "If we do," they answer, "i,llvthere also be an open door in the Philip pines?" . This has placed the adminis tration in a quandry and it is said because promises of an open door policy in the Philippines cannot be given at the present time.

BRITONS SUFFERED SEVERELY Casualties at Modder River Over Four Hundred London, Dec. 3. The war office has received the following from General Forestier Walker: "Cape Town, Dec. 1. General Gat- acre reports no change in the situa tion. General Frenih made a recon noissance from Naauwpoort to Ros- mead. - The troops returned today. "General Metheun's flesh wound is slight.' - He is remaining at Modder river for the reconstruction of bridges. Am reinforcing him with Highlanders and cavalry corps. Horse artillery, the Canadian regiment Australian contingents and three battalions of infantry hare moved to the De Aar and Belmont line." As surmised, the British dead and wounded at the hard-fought b&ttle of Modder river number hundreds. The war department today gave out tne information that the total number of casualties was 452, and the number killed, 72. From' General Forester-Walker's dispatch it is proved that all reports of Metheun's advance after the battle of Modder river were premature, though with the railroad working, he should not be long in constructing temporary bridges. His enforced delay doubtless rill be of considerable service in giving his hard-pushed columd needed rest, and in allowing the arrival of reinforcements which he must be sore ly in need of, after three such fights, placing hors de combat upwards of a thousand men out of less than 7000.

New York, Dec. 3 The World to day published the following interview with Senator Mark Hanna: "If anybody thinks I am out of active politics, let him wait till a fight starts up and see if I will be. ' I have never yet shirked a duty of this kind. ' Do you think a man like me. who has gone so far in this thing called politics, and who has worked so faithfully for his party, would crawl but just before an other nnHnnal campaign when respon sibilties ii -v.- vrown heaviest and every leader is In honor bound to do all he can. do for the cause? Does any body suppose T would put myself before the country on 6uch a proposition? ' "Now, I'll tell you about this .chair manship of the national republican committee. You see I am not a mem ber of that committee; I am simply chairman of it. - My term will not ex pire until after I have called the na tional convention of republicans In 1900 When that convention meets 1 shall haye to be there as chairman of the national committee and make my re port. Then the convention will proceed with its .business. After this is accom plished the national committee will be selected by the delegates from the various states. . This committee will then meet to elect a chairman. I simply ask you, who can speak for me at this early date and say I am out of politic? and have declined to accept another term as chairman of that com mittee? It is simply folloy if a man declines a thing before the possibility of his Accepting or . declining it has arisen.

Richardson Chosen for Democratic Leader and Henderson bv the Republicans. Washington, Dec. 3. The demo crats of the house of representatives, at their caucus held in the house, se lected James D, Richardson, of Ten nessee, as their candidate for speaker, after a spirited contest, which lasted through six ballots. This carries with It the democratic leadership on the floor. Richardson has served 14 years in the house, and is the oldest demo cratic member, in point of se-vice except McRae, of Arkansas. The candidates against Kicbardson were De Armond of Missouri. Bankhead of Alabama and Solzer of New York linpresentaiive Hay. of Virginia, was elected chairman of the caucus by vote of 77 to 62 ca$t for McRae of Ark ansas. It has been cus'.omary for th oldest member in roint of service to preside oyer the caucus, and the seleo tijn of Uay, who has served one tvrm wa- of unusual honor. The name of Flortou of Ohio was also presented fo presiding officer, but was withdrawn The caucus of the republican mem bers of the house last night was a cut' and-dried affair. The selection of candidate for speaker by the party in power is usually a very animated af fair; but months ago ail the other candidates who entered the field after the retirement of Speaker Read aban doned the contest, leaving General David -B. Henderson, of Iowa, the un opposed candidate. His nomination was therefore a foregone conclusion, and be was nominated by acclamation The officers of the last house, except Colonel Russell, the sergeant-at-arms, were renominated without opposition Colonel Russell was not a candidate for re-election, and Colonel Henry A. Casson, of Wisconsin, was nominated In his stead. : Many a Lover Has turned with disgust from an other wise lovable girl with an offensive breath.

ANOTHER BLOODY BATTLE. Boers Mow the British Down While At tempting , to Cross a Bridge. London, Dec. 4. The Daily Chron icle publishes the following dispatch, dated Wednesday morning, from its correspondent at the Modder river camp: " ' The severest engagement our col umn has yet had and probably the severest-of ;he whole campaign, was fought yesterday on the banks of the Modder river-." '-TBe"battk was" waged fiercely for nearly 14 hours. The ene my occupied a strongly entrenched position, their front extending five miles along the bank of the stream. They were well supplied with artillery and fought desperately. "The battle started at daybreak, our guns shelling the Boers' left. . - The en emy; replied with artillery, Hotchkiss and Maxims, and the artillery duel lasted some hours. Then there was a brief lull in the enemy's operations, of which we immediately took advantage. The infantry advanded across the plain towards the river in two brigades. The guards on the right were met by an awful bail of bullets from the ene my's sharpshooters, posted close to the river on the opposite bank. Ours had no cover and were simply mowed down. It seemed impossible to live through the terrible fire, but the brave fellows did not retreat an inch. The Boer fire was horribly accurate, and they most have numbered at least 10,000. The Scots guards advanced 600 yards before they were fired on. Then they had to lie down to escape the deadly fusilade which lasted without intermission throughout the day. The Highlanders made several attempts to force a passage of the river, but they were exposed to such a murderous, en filading fire that they had to retire after they had suffered terribly. Sub-. sequently a party of the' guards got over and held their own for hours against a vastly superior force. "The British guns kept up a heavy fire all day and fearful havoc was wrought on the Boer positions, the en emy r-eing forced' to fly from their en trenchments. Night put an end to the terrible bloodshed. The infantry brigade was dreadfully cut up. The Boers retreated at night, taking their guns with them, and we are now occu pying their positions. The enemy's loss was tremendous." Don't Risk Vour Life.
