BIS CASUALITY LIST EXPECTED Scene of Fighting Was Near Pre toria—Londoners Are Wildly Excited Over the News. A London special says: Lord Kitch ener reports that after severe fighting at Nooitgedacht, General Clement’s forces were compelled to retire by Commandant Delarey, with a force of 2,500 men. Four British officers were killed. The casualities were not re ported. Lord Kitchener’s official dispatch to the war office is as follows: “Pretoria, December 13.-Clement’s force at Nooitgedacht, on the Magelis burg, was attacked at dawn today by Delarey, reinforced by Beyer’s com mando from Warmbath, making a force estimated at 2,500. Though the first attack was repulsed, the Boers managed to get atop of the Magalies burg, which was held by four compa nies of the Northumberland Fusiliers, and were thus able to command Clem ent’s camp. H 8 retired on Hekpoort and took up a position on a hill iu the center of the valley. “The casualties have not been com pletely reported, but the fighting was very severe, and I deeply regret that Colonel Legg, of the Twentieth Hus sars and Captains Mcßean, Murdock and Atkins were killed. Reinforce ments have left here." Lord Kitchener also report* that the Boers made an attack and were re pulsed at Lichtenberg, and that Gen eral Letmeer was killed. Attacks up on Bethelhem and Yrede were also re pulsed, the Boers losing ten killed and fourteen wounded. Vdyheld was at tacked December 11th. Sniping con tinued when the message was dis patched. The scene of the fight is ominously close to Pretoria. Nooitgedacht is only twenty-two miles northwest of Preto ria. It is reported that General Knox, co-operating with the British column at Beddersburg, has stopped General Dewet and that a battle is proceeding. The report adds that many of General Dewet’s followers have been captured. The scenes at the war office Friday recall those witnessed in the early stages of the war. A constant stream of excited and anxious people filled the lobbies. Theabseuce of the namee of any of the officers of the Northum berland Fusiliers in General Kitche ner’s dispatch leads to the forebodiug that the four companies of the fusiliers mentioned are in the bauds of the Boers. The war office officials evidently ex pect a heavy casualty list, but they are hopeful from the fact that the dis patch does not mention the capture of ffie Northumberlands, that §*ch a great catastrophe hab' been escaped. Orders were issued at Aldershot, Malta and other military centers to dispatch all available mounted infan cy to South Africa. BOTHA ON THE MARCH. General Lewis Botha is reported tc be twenty miles from Sanderton with fifteen hundred men and one gun. He has called a meeting of the burghers. BATTLE UNDER WAT. A dispatch from Johannesburg, un der date of December 14, 3:25 p. m., says: The battle still continues in the hills a few miles from Krugersdrop. General Clements has asked for rein forcements and mounted men under General French have already gone. There has been many casualties on both sides. It is estimated that the Boers number 2,800. BRITISH EXPECTING ATTACK. Advices fromLourenzo Marques are to the effect that the British troops at Koomatipport are standing to arms in the expectancy of an attack by a Boer force of fifteen hundred, which is in that vioinity. It is believed to be the intention of this force to make a dash upon the town. The situation is re garded as serious. A foroe of 150 infantry, a squadron of cavalry-and two guns were dispatch* ed to the frontier Friday. TIME FOR VOTE FIXED, UsT-l’auncefote Treaty Before Congrem To Be Disposed of At Once. A Washington special says: Just before adjourning late Monday after noon the senate gave its consent to the fixing of a definite time to vote upon the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. Sen ators Money and Mason had occupied the time of the executive session in making speeches upon the treaty, and when Mr. Mason, who was the last sneaker, conclndc-d, Senator Lodge, renewed his request to take a vote next Thursday. No voice was raised iu opposition and the unanimous agreement v. as recoided. TREATY A STEMBLINtt BLOCK Little I s rcspect of Ship Subsidy or Canal Bill Passing at Pres ent Session of Congress. A Washington special says: There is little prospect that the llanna-Pnyue ship subsidy bill and the Nicaragua canal bill will pass ut this session of congress. The amendment cf tha Hay-Fauuca fote treaty has put a damper on the canal bill so far as the administration is concerned, and it was semi-officially announced Friday that Mr. McKinley will oppose any effort to pass the canal bill until u satisfactory arrangement is made with Great Britain. With the strong opposition of the administration forces in the senate the canal bill will go over despite the en treaties of Senator Morgan. The shipping bill will be talked to death, and strange as it may seem, this will be done by Republican senators. Six or eight senators who bear enmity to Senator Hanna have agreed to fight the shipping bill, and they will talk on it until March 4. Senator Pettigrew is determined to defeat the bill, and if necessary he will adopt the dilatory tactics to delay ac tion when the regular appropriation bills reach the senate. They will take precedence over the shipping and canal bills, and the lat ter will be sidetracked indefinitely, being discussed only at intervals. The Republicans who will oppose the shipping bill are the personal friends of former Senator Matt Quay, of Pennsylvania, who has inspired them to kill Hanna’s pet rueasuro be cause the Ohio boss desert id Quay at a critical point in his conte )t for a sen ate seat, his vote throwing Quay out. Hauna made mauy enemies by this vote. GEORGIA TO EXHIBIT. State Will Be Represented Both at BafTalo and Charleston Expositions. Georgia will have an exhibit at the Buffalo and Charleston expositions. The display that was on exhibition at the Cotton States and International exposition in Atlanta in 1895, aud which has been on exhibition on the third floor of the capitol since theD, will be sent to these two cities. It is proposed under the bill of Senator Howell, which passed tho house of representatives Friday morn ing, that this exhibition be transport ed and displayed at Buffalo aDd later at Charleston. As under the constitution no appro priation can be made for this purpose, the state is relieved of all liability in transporting and arranging sail ex hibit. The exhibit will be in charge of a commission of three, one to be named by the governor and the commissioner of agriculture and state geologist to constitute the other two. JAMES SAY AN .VS LIBERALITY Assures Handsonio Approprlallon For the Georgia Technological School. President Lyman Hall, of the Geor gia Technological school, has announc ed that Mr. James Swann, of New York, formerly of Atlanta, will give the Tech 820,000. This rich gift is made to enable the Tech to get the 816,000 provisional appropriation made by the legislature fc~ a textile equipment and electrical building, which was not to be availa ble until 825,000 was raised by private subscription. This fund has been raised, or, at least promised. Five thousand dol lars has been promised from various sources aud Mr. Swanu’s contribution completes the fund.
