Boer Bullets, However, Did Fearful Execu¬
tion Among the Red Coats.
WAS A DESPERATE
Heavy Losses Were Inflicted
both Sides—British Com¬
mander Wounded.
A special dispatch from the Trans-
veal received at London Friday stated
that after' eight hours of continuous
heavy fighting, Talana Hill was carried
by the Dublin Fusileers and
King’s Rifle's, under cover of a well
served artillery fire by the Thirteenth
and Sixty-ninth batteries. The Boers
who threatened the British rear re "
tired.
The fight was almost an exact coun¬
terpart of that of Majuba Hill,
that the positions of the Boer and
British forces wore reversed.
General Sytnonds was severely, but
not dangerously, wounded.
The Boers got a reverse which may
possibly check nil aggressive action.
The British artillery practice in the
early part of the day decided the bat-
tie. The seiaure of Dundee Hill by
the Boers was a surprise, for although
the pickets had been exchanging shots
a. it was not until a shell
loomed over t.ie town into the camp
tnat their presence was discovered,
en the shells came fast. Tho hill
was positively alive with the
mg Boers, still the British artillery
got to work with magnificent energy

The enemy s guns, so far as the cor-

down too hillside into the valley,
where the battle went on with no

in the action and tho command then
devolved on Major Yule.

ASH BURN, GA.. SATURDAY. OCTOBER 28. 1Si)».
FUNNAGAN MAKES BREAK.
/Multi-Murderer Attempts to Es¬
cape From the Jail at Deca-
tur, Georgia.
Au Atlanta dispatch says: The a 1 -
most forgotten Edward 0. Flaunagan,
the double murderer and the man
around whom has clustered seusatiou
after sensation, created a thrilling
soene in the DeKalb county jail at De¬
catur, Ga., Saturday morning by at-
tempting to escape with tho jailer's lit-
tlo child in his arms.
Since the murderer’s last trial,when
the judge remanded him to prison in-
definitely upon the testimony of phy-
sicians that he was a mental wreck,
Flanagan has remained quietly specimens in jail,
ono of the most abject of
physical decay, and of late he has been
almost entirely forgotten.
In his tittle cell at the DeKalb
county prison ho has lived for months,
au imbecile, and it has been a conjec¬
ture bow long it would be before he
would die in prison.
He has been quiet and inoffensive
and the jailers have ceased to regard
him as dangerous. His attempt Sat-
nrday to escape ivas wholly unlooked
for, and was a surprise to those whose
duty it has been to guard him.
Early in the morning Sheriff Talley
sent Piliard, a negro guard, to Plana-
gan's cell with the prisoner's break-
fast. The sheriff’s little child aceom-
companied the uegro guard.
Pillard opened the door of Plana-
gan's cell and handed him the plnte
contaiuing the breakfast. The pris-
oner seemed to ho in his usual apa-
thetic condition, although he eyed the
little child closely. Mechanically Flan-
piate, agan picked up the knife lying in the
and started to eat his breakfast.
With a sudden hound the murderer
sprang forward, seized tho child in his
arms, and still holding the knife ho
had takeu from his plate, ho leaped
throngh the cell door and darted down
the stairway leading to the sheriff’s
office.
The door opening from the prison
to the jail yard was locked, nud tho
only way for Flanagan to get out was
through the private apartments of the
sheriff, where tho latter resides with
his family.
The sheriff and his wife hoard the
noise as Flanagan ran down tho Blair¬
way and they were ready to intercept
him when he made his appearance in
the jail office.
Sheriff Talley grappled with the
murderer and threw him to the floor,
Mrs. Talley caught up her child and
took tho little one from the arms of
the prisoner. The child was unhurt.
Tho negro guard had quickly follow¬
ed Flanagan down the stairway and
was just in timo to assist the sheriff
in holding the prisoner to the floor
while the knife was wrenched from
his hand. Flanagan was then ordered
back to his coll at the point of a
pistol.
There was much mathod in Flana¬
gan’s madness. Ho evidently took
the child up in his arms when he at¬
tempted to escape in order to keep tho
sheriff from shooting at him, well
knowing that the sheriff would rather
see him get away than run tho risk of
killing his own child. The knife was
also probably taken from tho plate for
the purpose of intimidating any one
who should try to iutereept him in his
flight.

by burning at the stake, the other by

The London war office Sunday after-
noon published a dispatch to the sec¬
retary of state for war, the Marquis of
Landsdowne, from tho general com¬
manding in Natal, Sir George Stewart
White, regarding an engagement at
Elaudslaagte Saturday between Gleu-
coc and Ladysmith, when the British
under Gen. French routed the Trans¬
vaal forces uudor Gen. Jan M. II.
Rock, second in command in the
Transvaal army, who was hiuisolf cap¬
tured and wounded, nud has since
died.
An armored train with the men of
tho Manchester regiment appeared otl
tho left at Ladysmith ut daybreak Sat¬
urday, in support of the Johannesburg
Imperial Light Uorso Guards and tho
Natal field aitillory with the object of
reopening communication at Elans-
lnngte. Tho artillery took up a posi¬
tion above the town and shelled a rail¬
way station from which the lloors ran
out, and the British mounted infantry
entering tho place, released tho Eng¬
lish prisoners. The Boers, number¬
ing l,fiOO men, with their guns, occu¬
pied a commanding position. They
poured such a well-directed fire on
the British and their scouts wero so
active that tho British forces steadily
retired until reinforcements arrived,
when the mounted infantry was scut
to drive the Boers south of tho bridge
to the right. jgf
A large force of mounted cavalry in
tho meanwhile swept over tho plaiu
and up tho hill on the right. The
Lancers met with a heavy fusilndo
while on the left. A British battery
opened with good effect. The British
infantry who had debarked from the
railway train in tho interim, advanced
steadily over the plain and up the
rooky ridge previously cleared by (he
cavalry. The Boev artillery dropped
shrapnel into the advancing columns,
but the British filially scaled the hill,
whence they overlooked tho broad val¬
ley to three rocky hills forming tho
Boers’ position, their camp being in
the center.
The British infantry formed for tho
attack in extended order behind the
brow of a hill, the Devonshire!, on the
left with four companies of the Mau-
cbosters and somo of the Gordons on
the right.
At about r, p. in. the infantry ad¬
vanced through the vul oy ns steadily
ns on field day. Half way down the
slope they met. n terrific infantry nud
artillery fire. The men foil rapidly,and
the wounded were carried to the rear.
But in spite of the steady work of the
Boor gum, and the sharjisho,iters con¬
cealed behind the rocks, the increas¬
ing fire of the advancing British in¬
fantry gradually gained the upper
hand, and the Maneliesters and Gor¬
dons, edging toward the right, otrtilanking gained
fhe top of the ridge, thus
the enemy’s left,
At f! the bugles sounded tho
"charge,” and the British swept ahead,
Fhe Boers fought to tbo last, only
attempting to escape whsn further
fighting was hopeless,
Tlie Boer losses were very consider-
able, including a number of wounded
»»d utiwrmnded prisoners. Among
the former are General .Tan Kook and

Joubert. One goods train with sup¬

Chaucttllor of 1110 I’iXohoipio.v Sir
Miohael H.iokfc-Bouoh made 11 ninto*
Tuotit on tho question of tho oxpoudi-
turn entiiilod by the Tniusvnftl war.
Ho Haiti tho expenditure for the year
had been inereaned by the RMpplomon-
lary vote to a total of £121,605,000,
but bo addod the revenue had In-
creased and ho expected tlioro would
be an incrodBe of £5,000,000 over bi«
estimate of tho revenue. This would
bo a considerable contribution toward
the unforeseen expenditure, and would
leave about £7,000,000 to be provided.
He thought there would bo no addi¬
tion to the fixed debt, but that tho
mon oy should be raised by a tempo¬
rary addition to the floating debt.
Tho ohanoellor of the exchequer
therefore asked for power to raise
£8,000,000 by treasury hills. The
whole question of repayment and the
question of fresh taxation is to be left
over to the next financial year.
Hir Michael also pointed out that
the present war differed from previous
onetv and that the o«ti;..aioe had been
more carefully drawn np. No one
could foresee what the total would bn,
but the British troops bad met with
brilliant success and tho colonies were
loyal. Although there might be souio-
thing in dispatches giving cause for
anxiety, yet. he saw no reason to antio-
ipate that the campaign would not be
brought to u successful conclusion
within the period for which the esti¬
mates wero framed.

to hear part of the cost. Tho Trans¬
vaal, he continued was rich with its
gold fields. There had boon eom-
plaints from those interested in tho
gold fields Unit there had been oxees-
sivo taxation, but he beleivod from the
best information, that tinder a pure
and honest government, it would be
perfectly possible for tlie Transvaal to
hear not. only tho ordinary expenses of
the government and of providing for
tho maintenance of pence and order
within its territory, hut also to pro¬
vide a reasonable sum towards the ex¬
penses of tbo war, with a reduction at
the same timo of the taxation of tho
gold fields.
Continuing,Hir Michael Hicks-Beach
said:
“If these uutioipaUoua are not ful¬
filled and tho sum borrowed prove* to
he but part of tho total coat of the
war, wo shall appeal to your patriot¬
ism next April. We believe that those
w ho have supported us in tbo prosecu¬
tion of this work will not fail us when
it comes to pay the hill. If fresh tax¬
ation worn introduced now it might
prolong the debate and produce a di¬
vision which might, be entirely misun¬
derstood abroad. I shall not take auy
course which will promote a division
or prevent ns from presenting a united
front in this orisie,”
Hir Henry Campbell-Beiifirmau, tbe
leader of the opposition, agreed that
this was not the proper time to discuie
the financial question.
T ho proposal of Hit Michael-HiokB
