LONDON , Juno 19. The St. James Gazette
this afternoon claims to have received from
an absolutely reliable source at Pretoria ,
capital of tlio Transvaal , the plan ot cam
paign which will bo followed by General
JoUbert , crninjaiider-ln-chlef of the Boers ,
In the event of war between the Transvaal
and Great Britain. General Joubort's force ,
It appears , will consist of 20,000 men armed
with Mauser rifles , In addition to forty-six
qulck-llrlng guns nnd 1.000 artillerymen ,
most of them drawn from the German and
Dutch armies. With these troops and help
expected from thn Orange- Free State , Jou-
bert expects to take the offcnulvs Immedi
ately after the declaration of war , enter the
Grange Kreo State nnd march on Klmberley ,
thu Drltlsh diamond mining center In West
Grlqualand , which forms four of the seventy
divisions of Cape Colony. Klmberloy Is
about 100 miles northwest of lllocmfontcln.
In Ills march on Klmberley Joubert will nso
the railroad as far ns available , expects to
capture the town with slight loss and blow
up the Do Beers diamond mine. Simulta
neously , It Is added , trie railroad from Cape-
town to Bulawayo will bo destroyed by
Doer sympathizers nnd agents In Gape Col
ony , who will destroy the Port Elizabeth-
Pretoria line south of Illoemfoiitcln , to pre
vent British troops from using It.
Finally , Immediately after Klmborley IB
captured , General Joubert will advance
on Capetown , the capital of Capo Col
ony , through the western provinces where
the Dutch predominate and arc expected to
Join the Boers. Joubort calculates that ho
will bo master of Capetown n fortnight after
the declaration of war and that ho will then
Ijo able to dictate terms of peace.

WASHINGTON , June 19. The occurrences
on the bridge of the Brooklyn during the
battle of July 3 having been the subject of
ft controversy In the newspapers , the Navy
department recently undertook an Invention-
tlon of the various nllcg.il Ions. Lieutenant
Commnndor Hodgson nnd Lieutenant Com
mander Hcllncr , who hnve figured In the
Controversy , were Mtli called on for ex
planations of the utterance.1) attributed to
them , and the latter was directed to report
for examination on this point to Captain
Chadwlck nt Uoston. The department has
now given out for publication Captain Chad-
wick's report on the matter. It Is not yet
determined whether or not the answer of
Lieutenant Commander Hellner will be
made public nt this time. Captain Chid-
wick's report Is as follows :
UNITED STATES STEAMSHIP NEW
YORK , BOSTON , Mnss. , June 17. 1S9D. To
the Secretary of the Navy : In obedience to
your order of June 2 I hnvo to repirt the
following as the statement of Lleutonnnt
Commnnder Hodgson ns the conversation bf-
twcen Hear Admiral Schley nnd himself
during the action of July 3 , 18U8. He stntes
as folrows :
"As we wcro approaching the Spanish
ships I heard Admiral Schley say port or
starboard several time ? to Captain Cook Sn
the conning tower , the admiral being on
the plntform surrounding the conning tower.
I had been on the bridge nbove and wns
Just coming down to report the position of
the ships when I heard the admiral nay ,
'hard a-port. ' The Maria Teresa was then
hauling abaft our port beam. The Brroklyn
was heading about northeast. 1 told the
admiral , or at least suggested to him , that
the Texas was very close on our starboard
hand , nnd that turning to starboard would
bring us close to her. I don't know thnt
I used the word 'collision. ' I did not cay
'you mean starboard. ' I Intended him to
uudorstnnd there wns danger of running
Into thu Texas. He said : 'All right , ' or
words to that effect I cannot repeat
verbatim.
"When I knew he was going to turn to
starboard I suggested backing the starboard
engine In order to make n smaller circle ,
nnd give the Texas a wider berth , but he do.
elded ngnlnst that , ns decreasing the ' ppced
of the turn. He did not say , thnt I 'know
of : 'Wo nre near enough to them ( the
Spaniards ) already. ' The only thing I gath
ered from what he said was that If we
turned to port wo should get BO close that
wo should expose ourselves to torpedo nt-
tacks. I oupposed ho meant torpedo boats ,
and replied to him that I had not Been
them. "
ii'n Denial In
Lieutenant Commander Hodgson otatcs
that he did not Intend to convey In his
note of denial , sent at the request of
Admiral Schrey and published In the Well
ington Post , the Idea that no such colloquy
took place ,
He states regarding this , as follows :
"Admiral Schley wrote me enclosing nn
editorial frrm 11 XVw Vnrlr minor nf .Tiinn
1 , asking mo to write a denial of what ho
phrased "an oft-repeated calumny. " Ho
snys he has no recollection cf any such
conversation. I wrote a lengthy letter of
explanation , giving my recollection of tlio
conversation ns near ns possible.
"Admiral Schley wrote me Baying 'There
Is much In your letter which I should netlike
like to use , ns It would provoke assault
upon you" which I would not llko to happen.
What I want to show Is that.-the dialogue
did not occur. '
"I then wrote n denial of the colloquy ,
certainly not Intending to say that no such
coll'oquy occurred , but that It did not occur
ns printed. At the same time I sent with
this an explanatory letter explaining to
Admiral Schley that the letter of denial
was n denial ot the dlaloguo as It appenred
In print nnd thnt I had told the correspond
ent of the paper that the substance of thfl
i conversation was correct. In writing the
letter I wished to refute the fact of nny
controversy occurring at a critical stage of
I the battle. It , the letter , was a denial ot
] the 'words as they stood In the published
article , a denial of their literal corrcct-
j ness and not a denial of the substanlal
} correctness of the Btntcment.
i Lieutenant Commander Hodgson nttaches
his signature as a voucher of the nccurncy
with which the foregoing Is given. Very
respectfully , F. B. CHADWICK ,
Captain , United States Nnvy.

Lieutenant Commander.
BOLD ROBBERY IN QUAKER CITY
Employes of Trolley Line Held Up nnd
the Company Suf Looted of
Four TIioiiNiind Dollarw.
PHILADELPHIA , Juno 19. A gang of
masked robbers , probably ten In mumber ,
early this morning raided the receiving ofilco
of the Falrmount Park Transportation com
pany at Bolmount , In Falrmount park , and
after holding up the revolver and five otiior
employes of the raUway , blew open the safe ,
securing J4.000 , the company's roepts ( for
two days.
Frank Leavan , receiver , Frank Watson
and Henry B. Whitehouse , conductors ; James
Cavanaugh , fireman of the power houeo ,
Philip Eaves , electrician , and William
Cadmus , laborer , were bound hand and foot
with wlro. In addition to the men who actu
ally committed the robbery others operated
miles away from the scene by destroying
telegraph and telephone wires connecting
with the trolley company's main offle.
The Falrmount Park Transportation com
pany operates various lines of trolley cars
through the park , for pleasure rides. The
traffic being unusually heavy on Saturdays
and Sundays , the robbers evidently decided
upon this morning as being a guod time to
make a big haul. The men above named
were all In the olllco when the burglars
made their appearance. Each Intruder was
armed with two revolvers and they took
the employes completely by surprise , It was
the work of n few moments for the robbers
to pinion the workmen , who were rolled over
to ono aide cf the room , with their faces
to the wall. Ten minutes later the safe bad
been cracked and the gang disappeared.
The entire city detective force Is on the
case , but the cracksmen loll no clue.
Frank Leavan , the night receiver , one of
the men gagged and bound by the robbers ,
told this story of hie experience :
"While I was standing at the office door
I heard footsteps In the rear. Turning , I
saw two men with masks on their faces ,
They had two big revolvers and ran me Into
the conductors' rcom and tied my hands and
feet with wire and laid mo on the floor
with my face to the wall. In the conduc
tors' riom I s w Whltohouse was also be
ing bound and gagged.
"When we were laid on the floor a man
was detailed to guard us. In n few rnln-
utea in came another victim , whom I think
was Watson , a conductor , and ha went
through the same thing. Then two more
came In and were 'bound. The burglars
worked quietly. It only took them ten
minutes to blow the safe.
"The guards frequently threatened to
shcpt ua if we made the last outcry or mo
tion. I think they must have had a wagon
to take a way the caah , because It was very
heavy to get away with.
"Shortly after the money was taken our
guards left. Finally Phillip Eaves , the elec
trician , got hlmeelf unloosened and he then
unloosened us.
"I tried to reach the city hall by wire , but
the wires of both telephones had been cut
and I had to run In the pitch dark to the
Belmout jmrnpli g atatloH , tvhere 1 gave the
alarm nnd they Informed the detectives. "
Potcr Duffert nnd Charles Smith , who say
they live In Newark , N. J. , nnd Albert Leeds
of Philadelphia were arrested In Fnlrmount
park on suspicion of being connected with
the robbery.

PIIIST TO USI3 MOVAIIliB TYPE.
Corcnnd Originated the Practice of
KfnKliiK It uf Metiil.
Corea was the first of all peoples to origi
nate movable metal type , relates Harper's
Magazine. For1 hundreds of years the coun
try nnd the king had been under the domina
tion of the Buddhist'priesthood and the land
was' suffering tlie extremes of sa'eerdatallsrn ;
Every third son must by law 'become ' a
monk In other words , an unproductive mem
ber of society ; the killing of a cow was a
greater crime than the killing of a man.
The people's houses were being seized for the
erection of worse than useless monasteries.
At last the general Yl T'a-Jo , whom a dot
ard king had sent upon the insane mission
of Invading China , turned to his so.'dlors and
said : "Shall wo return to the capital and
apply ourselves to the cleansing of the un
speakable corruption of our country ? " He
was applauded to the echo and , like Julius
Caesar , but with better purpose , he recrossed
the Yalu , Corea's Rubicon , marched back
upon the capital and sealed the death war
rant of sacerdotalism.
No sooner had the new dynasty been
founded In 1492 than literature received a
new Impetus through the revival ot Con
fucianism and the study of the ancient clas
sics. The monasteries , which had become
thu repositories of the scholarship of the
land , were filled with the unintelligible Jargon
gen Ot buddhism , and literature was al
most wholly confined to its ritual. But now
schools were being established , books were
being demanded and students were calling
Impatiently for the time-honored classics.
Thus It was that In the rolgn of King T'a-
jong a fount of metal type was cast , the
first the world had ever seen. The art of
xylography had existed for centuries and cloy
type had also beeu used In Japan , but Corea
was the first to discern the need of the
more permanent and durable form of metal
type , and go well did It carry out Its
plan that the typo then cast has come down
to the present day practically unimpaired.
Each type was built on thu principle of the
arch , being cyllndrlcally concave on the
under side. The purpose of this was to se
cure a firmer hold upon the bed of bees
wax which constituted the "form , " technic
ally so called. A shallow tray was filled
with wax nnd the type , after being firmly

MORGAN GIVES HIS IDEAS

At the regular monthly meeting of tlio
Omaha Ministerial union Monday Ilev ,
Mr. Morgan of the First lUptlst church rend
a paper on the work which ho believed to
bo before the Christian churches and min
isters of this ilny. The paper gave evidence
of having been carefully prepared , and was
listened to nltonthcly. for from the stnrt
the other ministers realized something of In-
Iciest was to be said.
Mr. Morgan held that there were subjects
of every day Inipornnco upon " 'inch the
minister might preach nnd from which he
might draw eome practical lessons. Ho be
lieved sociological questions were limply ,
and particularly ( he trusts which Just now
nro attracting the attention of evcrjbody.
Sanitary and political questions h < 5 thought
tlioutd bo taken up In their turn and treated
In a comm n sense way.
Religiously he voiced n fcai that unless
thcrovas an nwakonlug In Protestantism It
would be uvcrpowored by tlia Romnu Cath
olic church. He said iha latter church was
ever vigilant und never plopped hi Ita work
trying to disorganize Protestantism. Ho
called upon the ministers to take up this
fight.

Mr. Morgan made a strong pica for the
theater , not as the piny house Is gonernlty
understood , but for the better Ideal , that
which Its true friends hope It to be. He do-
clnral thnt If belter people gave their sup
port to the leglllmate theater It would become -
come n power tor good.
Finally ho rpokr for a federation of
churches , nnd thought It a mlstnko that any
organization should have withdrawn from
the Chlstlan Knde.nnr society because Us
work was along the line of church unity.
Mr. Morgan .1 theater and church unity
propositions More vigorously attacked by
some of the ministers , but the discussion did
not take on the nx-ope one might expect from
the subjects treated In the paper.

HOT FOOTRACE ON SUNDAY
Snitpoctcil Thief Sctn Lively I'noe for
Olllcer KlHxaiic , Wlioxe Hovolvcr
HfiltN the Fugitive.
The usual Sunday afternoon'crowd which
loiters about North Ninth street was treated
to an unusual bit of excitement yesterday.
There was a throng around the patrol call
box at the corner of Ninth street and Capitol
tel avenue , where Officer Klssano was bun
dling an arrested we man Into the patrol
wagon. As the vehicle started away' and the
policeman turned to resume patrollng his
beat he caught sight of a man In the crowd
for whom he had sought a year or more for
larceny.
There are evidences that the suspect tried
to disguise himself and when he perceived
that he was discovered he turned and ran
with the officer In hot pursuit. The suspect
Is a tall , lean man and he tried strategy.
Between two buildings on the opposite sldc >
of the street there was a passageway wide
enough to allow him to slip through , but
too narrow to admit the broader figure of the
olllcer. Through this opening the suspect
darted. The porlcciuan dashed around be
hind the building and before the crowd had
time to follow , the suspect again appeared
on the street , having run around the other
side , but the officer was close on bis trail.
Then ensued a footpace up the middle of
the street and when the policeman observed
that ho could not gain he drew hits pistol
and fired a chot Into the air. The suspect
didn't check his epeed. and sn another shot
was fired , this time BO low that the runner
could hear thu bullet whiz past his cars.
It had the deelred effect. The man stopped
and was arrested.
The name he gave at the station Is Jacob
Schwartz. The offense he Is said to have
committed Is the larceny ot u valuable watch
and | 10 from a North Platte man named
Henry Potter , who came to BUO the sights of
the exposition and fell Into Schwartz * com
pany. Potter eays that his oowly found
friend got him Intoxicated and escorting him
to a dark pface beneath the Douglas street

KINGSTON. Jamaica , June 10. The ril-
Ish steamer Brookllne , Captain List , Haiti-
more , for Port Antonio , Jamaica , which ar
rived hero today , brought n ofllcor and
three men of the British steamer Klliclwolcl ,
Captain llenshaw , Philadelphia for Port An
tonio , who were picked up eighteen hours
after they dud left the Ulhchvuld , then In
Kront distress , to sonk assistance. The
Broukllno promptly u-turncd to the point
whom the Kthplwold was Inborlng when lh
boat put oft and made 11 careful search for
tlio steamer. No traces of 1' were found ,
and It Is feared that the llthelwold has
foundered.

Mary Kramer , fonnorty of Lincoln , came
to the polU-e stntlon Monday nnd reported
that some person had stolen her purse con
taining ? U5.
When n j'tati falls headlong from
toof , wo think otilv of the h.izarxloui
character of hid employment.
11 iloca not occur to us that
thousands of men at sen or on
land uic hourly climhinj ; to
dizzy heights without n fear
ntul without n fall , nnd Hint
the real danger is not in the
employment but in the
weakrning of the nerves
nnd giving way of the mus-
.clcs. Th't ' danger is just
ns great to the man on
the sidewalk or in the
office ns to the man
on t1io roof. When
tin ; aiumncli and the
organs of digestion
nnd nutrition nre dis
eased the blood becomes impoverished ,
and nerves and muscles grow weak for
lack of nutrition. More fatal diseases
probably begin with " weak stomach "
than with any other cnuse. The first
symptom of disordered stomach calls for
prompt use of Dr. I'icrce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. It is a vegetable medi
cine , absolutely non-alcoholic nud non-
narcotic , and isuucquakd for the strength
it gives to blood , nerves and muscles.
