EXCITEMENT AT PUEBLO. frequent .Hurderous Assaults Upon Women and Girls. Pueblo, Colo., Cvt. 8. This city is in great excitement over n series of murderous assaults upon - women and girls. From what can be learned they seem to have been committed by the same iierson, a .Negro or a very dark white man with his face black' oned. Last night Mrs. J. P. Hen. derson was a victim, being half killed with a club while alone in her home, the assailant having induced her to admit him by protending he had a telegram. He stole a revolver when he departed. Later, a girl in a fam ily named Hamilton was terribly choked by a man who had forced his way in. He left on the bed where the girl had been sleeping, the same re volver stolen at the other place. Mrs. Hickey, who was struck down while riding a bicycle two nights ago is still at the point of death with a frac tured skull and can give no clear ac count of what occurred. Two very voting girls have recently leen victims of aseAtilts of the most atrocious des cription. In another case a egro who seized a young lady on the porch of her home, was chased two blocks by a young man who came out, but escaped. The police have been unable to get any definite infor mation. Keport comes late tonight of another case, which is now being investigated. INSPECTION IS FAULTY. Engineering Expert! Report on Condition of Brooklyn Bridge. New York, Oct. 8. District attor ney Philbin has made public the re port of fcuwin Duryea and Joseph Maycr.the special engineering experts appointed by him to look into the condition of the Brooklyn bridge after the breaking of several suspender rods and suspender bands July 24 last. These experts were appointed to make this report with a view to pre senting tjie matter to the grand jury, if it shoiild lie found that the bridge department had been negligent. The experts found that the inspection of the structure, as maintained by the bridge department is faulty, but that the bridge is now practically as strong as when completed. One trouble is that the moving loads which cross the bridge have increased so rapidly that tho structure must be strength ened. The accident of July 24 is found to have been due to the 'wind pressure blowing against the plat form cars, causing a pressure trans verse to the bridge, thus causing tho rods to bend. Had careful inspection been maintained, the bending and breaking would have been prevented The experts maintain that tho in spection of tho brigde should bo done by engineers, and not by mechanics, as at present. They find that the safety of tho bridge can bo increased by remedying the certain defects in the design. They hasten to say, how ever, that they do not criticise tho designer, and call attention to the fact that since his structure was de signed, great advancement has been made in such work. Rev. McCammith Exonerated. Carbondale, III,, Oct, 8. The coro ners' jury summoned to inquire into the killing of John 0.

Diuwlng the military situation in South Afrioa, the I.(hm1oii corrtMpoiident of the Tribune says: Colonel Kekewieh's foteewasur prised by Commandant Delurvy, a was suspected by military men, when the earliest bulletins bearing the marks of clre revkiou by the war ortice were imblished. While this engagement supplies fresh proof that routing U either a lost art or eke in effectual against theotealthy atrmoach of mobile and crafty foes like the Beers, the veterans are satisfied with the line fighting form displayed by Colonel Kekewich'a command. They auert that the British army had grown stale while only half employed in watching railways and moving arrow stretches of empty country, wh're Boera eluded pursuit and would not stand, but it it attain on its mettle when tliere is real lighting. "Colonel Kekewioh i regard! by oiith Africans as a vigilant o Ulcer, with a narrow mind ami a laek of rloxibility While he defended Kim If rly successfully it was Cecil Ithodea who recruited the volunteer force of Colonials and imparted courage to the opIe of the town. Colonel Kekewioh did not get on well with Mr. Rhodes, who was the real defend er of-Kimborly. There is a story that when General French entered Kim berly, Colonel Kekewkh asked him to put Rhodes under arrest, but was laughed at. He bus been one of Lord Kitchener's trusted lieutenants us an experienced officer, who thorough ly understands Boer tactics." MAMMOTH DRYDOCK.

KRUGER GROWING WEAKER. Only Held Up By His Interne Hatred ol Great Britain. The Hague, Oct. 7. A. D. W. Wol marans, one of the Boer envoys who has been visiting Mr. Kruger, found the mental condition pf the ex-Presi dent of the lrnnsvaal to be by no means satisfactory. Mr. Kruger is slowly growing weaker, physically and mentally. His slowness in reaching a decision on important questions is found to be a serious hindrance to those work ing in Europe in behalf of the Boer cause. At tho slightest question re. garding lus health, Mr. Kruger ex hibits intense irritation and ve hemently denies that anything is wrong. The approach of winter causes anxiety, as Mr. Kruger refuses to leave Holland. According to remark made by a prominent Boer, the ex-presidonts' condition would long since have been much worse if hatred of Great Britaiin did not nerve him to continue. New Chief of Ordnance.
