ciiurt Ih Still laolntctl
DmtHAv Nov 23 Owing to tho
proximity of tho Boors to Piotorninritz
1mrg it has been necessary to alter tho
defenses of Durban Estcourt is still
silent All accounts point conclusively
to a determined rush of tho Boers tow
ard Piotormurltburg with a very largo
force Seven thousand men with guns
are reported 25 miles from Ilowick
They nrosuid to be under tho personal
command of General Joubert Ycster
days engagement at the Mool river
found tho British almost entirely on tho
defensive A correspondent of tho
Natal Advertiser said a Boer shell fell
within a fow yards of thodotachmontof
their infantry and that the shells did
little or no damage and tho firing con
tinued for half an hour at intervals of
from three to llvo minutes According
to this uccount tho British troops pro
pared with tho utmost promptitude and
advanced under cover wherever possiblo
Thero was but littlo firing tho corre
spondent said but tho enemy possessed
at least ono howitzer with a rango of
five miles and several six pounders
London- Nov 2a Although it is
known that tho situation in Natal is
becoming alarming nothing can bo
learned to allay public anxiety or the
curiosity fult regarding tho disposition
of tho reinforcements recently lauded
at Durban Tho war oflico dispatches
aro confined to a mero recital of a few
casualties at Mooi river which confirms
the reports of skirmishes there but give
no details as to how tho engagements
happened Tho special correspondents
are only permitted to describe Major
General Bartons camp at Mooi river
vaguely as largo or ample
Ono correspondent says that 7000
Boers aro within 25 miles of Ilowick
lalls near Pietorinuritzburg and that
tho inhabitants arc fieeing to tho cap
ital Evidently a considerable force of
tho enemy is now within 30 or -10 miles
of Pietermaritzburg but it is officially
announced from thero that no anxiety
prevails the garrison utairing 1000
men with six guns Gcnoral Joubert s
plan apparently is a daring attempt to
defeat tho British relieving column
from Durban in detail while still at
tempting tho reduction of Ladysmith
A serious attack on Mooi river camp is
now hourly expected with the object of
destroying tho bndgo nt Weston
Should this bo accomplished tho Boers
would be free to turn their attention to
Estcourt while if it failed the enemy
would retire again on Weeuen and re
join the investing forces around Lady-
smith

E 1 Wilcox of Mantonr was in con
sultation with Judge Shims of tho Ind
eral court hero yesterday and saitl that
it was only becausu of his personal in
tercession that the Indians had been
prevented from making an assault on
tho people of Tamn City and Toledo to
avenge themselves for wrongs indicted
by thu Indian agent
Wilcox finally arranged with Judge
Shims to go to Cedar Itupids and thero
file a petition for habeas corpus for tho
release of an Indian girl aged IS eon
lined in the government Indian train
ing school at Toledo for a month Wil
cox returned to his homo assuring thu
officials that ho will ho able to control
tho Indians ns long as tho courts havo
tho controversy in hand
Tho woman in tho ease is
and she is married Her hus
band is When tho train
ing school was established by tho gov
ernment at Toledo Indian Agent W
O Malin mnt out an order for all In
dian children under IN to enroll in tho
school Tho Indians refused and hid
their children Tho girl in question
was taken into nnother county and was
enrolled in a school near Bello Plaiuo
An Indian interpreter was charged
with helping children to escape from
tho reservation and on the trial the state
summoned thi woman in this case as a
witness Wilcox induced her parents
and husband to accompany her into
com tat Tama City Tho interpreter
was discharged but the Indian agmt
and Superintendent G N Nellis of tho
school seized tho girl took her away
from her husband by force and con
veying her to the Indian school build
ing confined her thero She has been
detained thero since tho first oftho
month It is for her release that Wilcox
now seeks a writ of habeas corpus
The husband is nominally tho
plaintiff and tho claim is mado
that tho government has no riuht to
forco tho Indians to go to school and in
this case has no right to detain a mar
ried woman
More than 300 of the Indians havo re
fused to accept their government pay
for more than a year on account of this
controversy with the government and
on account of other complaints one of
which relates to tho opening of roads
through the reservation
