ER AMONG THE DEAD
DEWETS SON IS CAPTURED
English Claim an Important Victory
in Recent Encounters with Follow
ers of Oom Paul Kruger Conflict
ing Reports as to Outcome
LONDON March 1 The war secre
tary Mr Broderlck announced in the
house yesterday that during the last
two days 600 Boers had heen killed
or captured and that 2000 horses and
28000 head of cattle had fallen into
the hands of the British troops The
prisoners include General Dewets son
and the generals secretary
Mania Botha the Boer leader was
killed 0and thirty five dead Boers
were found on the ground Over 100
horses were killed and 6000 head of
cattle were left in our hands Other
small attempts to break out were
made and in two cases succeeded On
the last day 450 Boers with rifles and
horses were captured All the col
umns have not yet reported and the
operations have been wide but over
600 Boers have been either killed or
are prisoners in our hands also 2000
horses 23000 head of cattle 200
wagons 60000 sheep 600 rifles and
50000 rounds of ammunition
In response to an inquiry made by
the government as to the fate of an
escort convoy of empty wagons which
according to a dispatch from Lord
Kitchener made public February 26
was attacked and captured by the
Boers southwest of Klerksdorp Trans
vaal colony February 21 Lord Kitch
ener has cabled the following
Report has just been received that
sixteen officers and 451 men were
taken prisoners Of these one officer
and 105 men have been released Col
Anderson of the Imperial yeomanry
who commanded is still a prisoner
Major Enderby who commanded the
infantry was wounded Hence the de
lay in obtaining definite information
Lord Kitchener says nothing in his
report about the two guns that the
Boers captured from the convoy and
Mr Broderick secretary of state for
war announced in the house of com
mons that the government had no in
formation beyond that contained in
General Kitcheners report
A dispatch from Harrismith also
says that Colonel Rawlingson made
the biggest success of the drive He
completely surrounded a laager of
400 Boers and gave them one hour in
which to decide whether they would
surrender or fight The Boers finding
escape impossible surrendered at dis
cretion and not a shot was fired
A casualty list published gives the
names of 118 men who were wounded
in the convoy affair The list of the
killed has not yet been received
WHAT GERMANY WILL SAVE
Twenty Five Million Marks as Result
of Sugar Convention
BERLIN March 1 The German
government will save 25000000 marks
a year as a result of the convention
agreed upon at the international su
gar congress and set forth by the
metropole of Antwerp In view of
the budget deficit this is no inconsid
erable item Furthermore the gov
ernment has long been wanting to
get rid of the bounty system if it
could do so without giving other
states an advantage The bounties
began when Germany did not export
sugar
They grew without design to inor
dinate proportions through the word
ing of the law which did not antici
pate the improved process of sugar
production The abolition of boun
ties gives general satisfaction
throughout Germany except to the su
gar interests

THE TRIBUTE TO MKINLEY
Impressive Memorial Services in the
House of Representatives
WASHINGTON Feb 2S At noon
yesterday in the great hall of repre
sentatives In the presence of Presi
dent Roosevolt Prince Henry of Prus
sia brother of the German emperor
the members of the cabinet the jus
tices of the supreme court the gen
eral of the army and officers of the
army and navy who have received
the thanks of congress the ambassa
dors and other diplomatic representa
tives of foreign countries the senators
and representatives in congress and a
large number of distinguished guests
Hon John Hay McKinleys secretary
of state pronounced a eulogy upon
his dead chief Four times before na
tional memorial services for presi
dents who have died in office have
been held in this hail two of them
like this in commemoration of chief
magistrates who have fallen by the
hand of assassins George Bancroft
the historian pronounced the eulogy
on Lincoln and Blaine was Garfields
orator It was eminently fitting that
the last public ceremonial of sorrow
for the lamented McKinley should
take place in the foium which had
echoed his voice in the arena where
he had won his spurs By a strange
coincidence this was the twentieth
anniversary of that on which the peer
less Blaine in the same hall deliv
ered his eulogy upon the martyred
Garfield and stranger still the sub
ject of todays memorial service was
the chairman of the committee that
had charge of the arrangements on
that occasion Who then could have
dreamed that the man who escorted
the then president of the United
States and the orator of the day to
their places was destined to be hon
ored like Garfield with the highest
place in the gift of his country was
to meet his sad fate and was himself
to be the next martyred president
above whose open grave the nation
would bow its head
Only one year ago less than five
nays at tne Head or an imposing civic
and military procession McKinley
passed triumphantly along Pennsylva
nia avenue for his second inaugura
tion Six months later the tragedy
occurred at Buffalo and another but
different sort of procession tenderly
bore his body through the streets to
the rotunda of the capitol where the
brief funeral oration was delivered
over his coffin and the tributes of the
nations of the earth about his bier
bespoke the universal sorrow Yes
terday once more with uncovered
head the nation paid its last tribute
of respect and publicly expressed its
living grief

Kitchener May Modify Terms
LONDON Feb 28 The colonial
secretary Mr Chamberlain made an
interesting statement in the house of
commons today to the effect that the
proclamation providing for the banish
ment of the Boer leaders did not pre
clude Lord Kitchener or Lord Milner
from accepting the surrender of the
Boer leaders on modied conditions
Lord Kitchener on his own authority
had already accepted the surrender of
some of the minor leaders on the un

banishment proclamation would not be
enforced

Short Skirts in Favor
The feature of the moment in fash

ing rapidly in popular favor It is un
questionably the fad to have at least
one short walking skirt for morning
wear These are extremely smart
when well made and are really lie
coming most unusual as that Is for
a short skirt To be correct these
skirts must fit closer than ever over
the hips whether made in box pleats
aide pleats or without any pleats at
all and there must always be consid
erable flare around the foot In spite
of the close fitting effect they must
be wide enough to allow the wearer
to walk with perfect comfort The
velveteen short skirts with three
quarter coats to match are the
smartest of any Next come the cor
duroys and are now appearing in
light colored cloths which will be
worn all through the spring It is
said and on good authority that ev

not much change noticeable In the price
paid for bulls veal calves and stags but
still anything at allgood met with ready
sale The demand for feeders of good
quality continued fully equal to the sup

Hogs The downward course of the hg
market continued AH points had fairly
liberal receipts and prices here dropped
otfTlOc Trading was fairly active at the
decline so far as the better weight hogs
were concerned The light stuff however
was a drug on the market and sellers
found it almost Impossible In a good

Sheep There was not a heavy run of
sheep ami Iambs but the demand on the
part of packers did not seem to be of

market was a little slow The better
grades sold at just about steady prices
and ewes of good quality In some cases
were a little stronger Anything on the
common order however whether sheep

quality of the offerings as a whole was
nothing extra which doubtless had con
