the Dally Mall of the Ladysmith bom
bardment November 3 :
"The arrival of the naval brigade on
Monday was most opportune. It would
do you good to FCC the great-chested ,
bcardud , steadfast men amid our army
of boyu. They -lid line service yeser-
day , when they mounted their guns In
record time and silenced a "Long
Tom" at ( i o'clock. "Long Tom" was
tried again , but the bluejackets again
silenced him in the second round.
Wo lost three wounded , Including , un
fortunately , an officer.
"Tho feature of yesterday's fighting
was the great variety of Uoer guns dis
closed. The effect of the eight hours
artillery fight was terrible , though less
deadly than the Infantry combat. An
incessant boom of guns and hiss and
rattle of shells gave a particularly re
morseless Impression and emphasized
the helplessness of man before the
deadly machines which he creates.
This was heightened by the cloudless
sunshine.
"Tho escape of ono man from de
struction by a bursting shell was very
singular. The shell burst near him ,
turning ono side of his bayonet into a
complete corkscrew , a fragment of th's
shell piercing his water bottle on the
other side , the man escaping unhurt.
Some arc disposed to criticise our ar
tillery practice , but It must be remem
bered that the Boers' guns outrange
ours. "

( IB founscl for Venezuela before the
Anglo-Venezuelan arbitration commis
sion , was a passenger On the American
line steamship St. Paul , which arrived
hero today. With him were Mrs. Hai-
rli'on ' and the baby. The passage across
the Atlrntlc was a rather stormy ono
and Mrs. Harrison was sick much of
the time.
Mr. Harripon. who says he is not in
the best of health , declared , however ,
that ho had not missed a meal through
Kicknoas.
"I have enjoyed the trip , " he de
clared. "After leaving Paris I socnt
some little time in Germany and while
ihcre I saw the kaiser. 1 talked wits
him for a short time and found him a
very asrceablc man. When you ask
me what he said , 1 shall have to answer
as I did In Germany when ono of th
roportcni there ahked me that question :
'You will have to ask the kr-laer. ' I
stopped for a short time In London be
fore sailing to this country. The weath
er wr.s thick when 1 was there and I
caught a bad cold in the fog. I at
tended a dinner at the London Chan-
ber of Commerce just before sailing. It
was iirlvatc. No reporters were pres
ent and I made a little sueech. "
Mr. Harrison's atcntlon was called to
the fact that It had been reported hero
that he had a falling out with Mr.
Choate. "Wo are as filendly as ever.
I think he Is a good man for the plnco
and he is doing good work there for

BIG FLEET LEAVES MANILA.
Mont Important Military lUprdltion of
the Autumn Campaign.
MANILA , Nov. C.This evening a
flct of transports and gunboats left Ma
nila for the most Important expedition
of the autumn campaign. Its destina
tion Is supposed to be Dagupan or some
other northern port.
General Whcnton commands with a
brigade1 consisting of the riiirtecntn
infantry , the Thirty-first infantry , two
guns of the Sixth artillery and two
Gnttings. The transports Sheridan ,
Francisco de Reyce and Aztec carry
the trooys , with the gunboat Helena
as escort.
A dispatch boat was sent ahead to
arrange a rendezvous with the Unite 1
States cruiser Charleston and the other
warships that are patrolling the north
coast of Luzon.
The landing will bo made under cov-
01 of the guns of the fleet. It Is as
sumed here that the purpose of the
expedition is to move down the Dag-
upan-Manila railroad toward Tnrlae or
to prevent Anuinaldo's forces making
another base further north.
Dagupan and Apparri are the strong
holds of the insurgents in the nortli
and it is supposed are the points where
most of the filibustering parties land.

LONDON , Nov. 4. While the wires |
to Lndysmlth arc cut , the optimism of
the war officials yesterday evening In i
refusing to believe that Ladysmith was
completely invested or Coienso cap
tured appears to be justified , as this
morning It was asserted that the rail
road Is still open , though traffic ban
been conducted with the greater cau
tion. What , however , was only a ru
mor yesterday evening may , It Is as
serted , be a reality at any moment , as
Gencial Joubcrt , with a laige force , is
expected to detach a body of several
thousand men and make a dash at the
railroad.
Rumors of all kinds are springing up
here. It is even asserted that General
White lias been compelled to fall back
oi < Pictermaritzburg , leaving his
wounded behind. Probably such ru
mors have their origin in the recollec
tion of the ominous silence which pre
ceded the evacuation of Dundee. But
on the other hand it is asserted that
the conditions arc altered and the
Britisli guns now seem more than
equal to the artillery of the Boers , thus
enhancing the difficulty of any assault
on the British lines.
A Capetown dispatch reports a re
pulse of the Boers by the British yes
terday. While there Is a habit hero to
assume that news of Boer victories
emanating from the continent cannot
be true , because of the censorship , the
faet Is forgotten that foreign govern
ments are fully privileged to send and
receive cipher messages to and from
their representatives in South Africa.
The list of casualties among the non
commissioned officers and men at Far-
quhar's farm shows the Glouccsters
lost thirty killed and fifty-three
wounded ; the Fuslleers lost ten killed
and forty-one wounded and the Tenth
Mountain battery two wounded , before
they surrendered. The captured , who
are given under the head of missing ,
are divided as follows : Gloucester ,
19 officers and 350 men ; Tenth Moun
tain battery , ( i officers and 84 men ; Fu-
sileers not yet reported.
As a matter of fact , the rumors of
the capture of the Hufcsars , the occupa
tion of Dundee and the disaster of
Monday came first from Berlin , from
which city , also , came the first news of
the Jameson raid. So tidings of any
British reverse arc as likely to come
from there as from anywhere. General
White's position Is acknowledged to be
so precarious that the landing of a big
naval brigade to go to his assistance is
being advocated.
While yesterday's rumors of Boer
and British victories are taken hero to
indicate that some serious operations
have been carried out it is generally
recognized that moat of the news at
present is largely surmise and must be
accepted with great caution.
ESTIMATE OF BOER LOSSES.
Most of Them Said to He Duo to Artil
lery 1'lrp.
LONDON , Nov. 4. Belated dispatch
es from the British camp at Ladysmith ,
Natal , add little information regarding
Monday's fight , except the estimates of
the Boor losses which are now said to
be ninety-five killed and 200 wounded ,
mostly victims of artillery sliplls ,
which have done such great havoc that
it is said General Joubert , the Bner
commander In chief has written a let
ter to General White , the British com
mander , protesting against the use of
lyddite. According to all accounts the
presence at Ladysmith of the long
range naval guns and the bglcndld
shooting of the bluejackets have ma
terially improved the position of the
British. A temporary armistice was
declared Monday evening to allow of
the collection of the dead and wound
ed. A dispatch from Klmberley , dated
October 29 , said all the wounded were
"
doing well. Small bodies of" Boers ,
about 400 strong , were then frequently
seen. They apparently came from
Matching , for the purpose either of as
sisting in the attach of Klmberlrv or
to resist the advance of reinforcements.
The absence of water outside the place
causes the Boors to continually move
their ennuis ,

JEFfRIES WINS THE FIGHT.
Clmmplnn .TeRiltK mid Hnllor Minrkoy
Meet IB HlriR In I'lnk of Condition.
NEW YORK , Nov. 4. [ Special to
the World-Herald.J There was a
breathless Interval then a big brnsa
gong clanged out the signal for the
opening of hostilities. The champions
looked the picture of physical condi
tion , and subsequent events substan
tiated It. But what Is tlic use of going
over the battle * by rounds. So far as
the boxing contest Is concerned , It
was n burlesque on modern gladltorlal
work , n rough and tumble , typical bar
room Jlght , In which only biting and
kicking was barred. An edifying spec
tacle for modern civilization.
There was no boxing from gong to
end. They came together like a. couple
of mad bu'ls , and thcic ivas nothing
but pulling nrtl hauling and mauling
until the finish. The only wonderful
feature about the affair was the mar
velous endurance of the two big brutes.
Sharkey is a demon , and had he the
bulk of the boilermaker the rowdy
proceedings would have speedily ter
minated.
Sharkey is one of the pluckiest and
most resolute and aggressive. He was
after Jeffries every minute of the
bloody time. There was no let up. W
was rush and grunt and clash , a bruis
ing of flesh and a crunching of bones ,
nothing elae. Sharkcy's left ear was
hanging to the side of his head , while
.leffrien' expansive nose was flattened
llkn an Ethiopian.
Both took enough punishment to
kill n dozen men , and in the twenty-
second and twenty-third Jeffries sim
ply hammered the sailor's face into a
pulp and his right uppcrcuts were
somthlng terrific , and the human frame ,
must needs be of cast Iron to have
withstood them. lie staggered about
the ring like a drunken man , the gong
alone saving him. The last was a repe
tition.
This time Sharkcy's ralvation came
In the shape of a lost glove , Jeffries'
left flying across the ring after a vi
cious straight punch on the sailor's
jaw. Sharkey staggered blindly at Jef
fries , while Slier was endeavoring to
adjust the mitt. Realizing what this
meant Jeffries broke away from Siler
and swung his right good and hard on
Sharkey's blooming ear and Siler
rushed between the struggling giants ,
separating them finally and with an
emphatic gesture gave the battle to
Jeffries.
Thus'another great fighter , after a
fashion , had tasted the bitterness of
defeat , and this time it was the bull
dog Sharkey , who merited all he got.
He was battered to a standstill , and
Jim Jeffries can rightfully claim the
mastery of all fighters , big and little ,
great and small , scientific and rough
and tumble.

Although Mr. Hobart is resting eas

RINEHART'S INDIAN PICTURES.
In the summer of 1S98 the Govern
ment Indian Bureau invited all tribes
of Indians in this country to send dele
gates to an Indian Congress , and they
gathered from far and near with their
ponies and tepees and gaudiest trap
pings in the Exposition Grounds at
Omaha. Never before had there been
and never again will there be such a
gathering. There were about five hun
dred of them , some partly civilized , but
the greater portion picturesque IK
original savagery. Strange as it may
seem at this late day many of the In
dians declared that before coming to
Omaha they had no Idea what multi
tudes of white men there were or how
hopeless It was to try to stand against
them. This was probably the last time
that so complete and spectacular a
view of the North American Indian
will be possible and those who had the
privilege of witnessing it are to bo
counted fortunate. At the time of the
Indian Congress a prominent pho
tographer obtained permission to take
the photographs of the most noted
chiefs present and succeeded In obtain
ing a collection which never will bo
equaled. Mr. Rinehart , the photograph
er , copyrighted all these pictures and
placed in a few art stores some hand-
colored proofs which , notwithstanding
their high price , sold at once , and these
Indian pictures have become the fad of
the year. The Chicago Great Western
Railway has succeeded at largo expense
In obtaining from Mr. Rinehart the
privilege of reproducing the best four
of these pictures , Chiefs "Wolf Robe , "
"Louison , " "Hollow Horn Bear , " and
"Hattlo Tom , " and have Incorporated
them In an art calendar for 1900 , which
Is pronounced the most artistic produc
tion yet attempted. The heads are
6x8 inches , one on sheet , wonderfully
reproduced in all their original colors ,
and when framed make most striking
and effective pictures , particularly
suited for holiday gifts. Owing to the
expense but a very small edition has
been issued. They will be sent , how
ever , while the supply lasts to any per
son sending 25 cents in stamps or silver
to cover the loyalty charges and the
expense of packing pnd mailing to F.
