The Kngagement at Kooi Laajrte An Infantry Attack by the British Boers Succeed In Getting Away with Their (Jans. London, Nov. 29. Virtually the only fresh news from the front is contained in the dispatches of Gen. Forestier-Walker to the war office.

The cables continue silent presumably, because of Gen. Buller's desire to prevent leakage regarding important movements now being carried on. It seems clear, however, that Lord Methuen is continuing to advance rapidly and thai, finding the railway much damaged, he 'left it behind him. When telegraphic communication is resumed it is quite possible that news may come of four simultaneous battles at Modder river, Arundel, Stormberg and Cole so. As the Boers, according to Gen.

For-estier-Walker's advices, were leaving Kimberley for the south, it is regarded as not impossible that Col. Kekewich is already marching with 2,000 troops to meet Lord Methuen. It is believed that, after the relief of Kimberley, Lord Methuen will proceed to the relief of Mafeking, about which considerable anxiety is still felt. Gatacre occupied Bushman's Hook yesterday with a battalion of infantry. His main body is at Putter's Kraal.

The enemy retired toward Molteno. THE ENGAGEMENT AT BOOI LAAGTK. Orange River, Nov. 29. The British arms have achieved a brilliant victory.

The enemy, strongly entrenched, held a range of hills commanding both sides of the railway at Rooi Laagte, near Gras Pan. Gen. Methuen made a detour and bivouacked for the night at Swink's Pan, tnree miles from the Boer position. At dawn the advance began, the guards forming the reserve. The column debouched on the plain eastward of the Boer kopjes.

The Boer guns opened fire and two batteries of British artillery, posted on each side, shelled the Boers. Finding it impossible to displace the Boers by artillery Methuen resolved upon an infantry attack. A brigade of infantry gallantly stormed the Boer positions in the face of a withering fire and carried hill after hill, the brigade under Col. Money capturing the main position against a terrific fire, but suffering terribly. The Boers were shelled during the final retreat and must have lost heavily, but they succeeded in getting away northward with' their six guns.

SILVER REPUBLICANS. A Meeting; Held and a Porpone Shown to Adhere to the Bryan Democracy State Reports Read. Chicago, Nov. 29. Informal discussion by members of the executive committee of the national silver republican committee and chairmen of the state committees at a meeting held here yesterday developed, as the concensus of purpose, an adherence to the Bryan democracy, "if the right men are nominated." There was no dissent from the opinion that, as the presidential candidate, William J.

Bryan would be "the right man." Most of the session was devoted to hearing reports on the silver republicanism in the various states. Gov. Altgeld was present by invitation and was greeted by a rising salutation. He made a brief address in which he paid a high tribute to the "patriotism and disinterestedness" of the silver republicans. Chairman Johnson, of the executive committee of the democratic national committee, and Samuel B.

Cook, the head of the democratic press bureau, were visitors. Chairman Charles Towne made an address in which he inveighed against the "tendency of the McKlnley administration toward absolutism." Senator Teller, of Colorado, said that the drift of the republican party was away from its original principles and that if he had not quit the party in 1896 he would have had ample cause to do so since then. A committee to report on the best time and place to hold the national convention was appointed, the manner of issuing the call and details of practical organization. The Nebraska Election. Lincoln, Nov.

The Report on the Bill Prepared by Representative Overstreet Silver and Paper Currency to Be Maintained at Parity with Oold.

Washington, Nov. 29. The financial bill prepared by the republican caucus committee which met at Atlantic City last spring was yesterday made public by the comruittee. Its principal features are as follows: The standard unit of value shall be as now, the gold dollar; that all obligations of the government shall be payable In gold, but nothing in the bill shall be construed to affect the present legal tender quality of the silver dollar or minor coins or the paper currency, or the laws making national bank notes receivable and payable for certain public debts and dues and obligations between national banks. The national bank law is also amended and a new division of issue and redemption is established in the treasury department.

The report on the bill has been prepared by Representative Overstreet, of Indianapolis, who introduced the original bill of the monetary commission in 1893. It is pointed out that there can be but one standard at one time and that the convenience of commerce is promoted by the use of different media of exchange, convertible into the standard. The report continues: "When the standard shall be permanently established and all doubt of its stability removed the parity of all our money will be fully recognized and the kind of money in which payments shall be made will rarely, if ever, be the subject of dispute." Mr. Overstreet quotes the pledge of the republican national convention of 1896 that "all our silver and paper currency must be maintained at parity with gold, and we favor all measures designed to maintain inviolable the obligations of the United States and all our money, whether coin or paper, at the presen standard, the standard of the most enlightened nations of the earth." POLYGAMY IN UTAH. Statement by Senator Rawlins with References to Charges Against His State on Account of Roberts Election.

Washington, Nov. 29. Senator Rawlins, of Utah, for the present the sole representative of that state in the senate, furnishes a statement with reference to the charges against his state on account of the election of Mr. Roberts: It is claimed that the Mormon -church by de ceit and fraud brought about the admission of Utah into the union, so that behind statehood lines polygamy might be practiced with impunity. The compact between the state of Utah at the time of her admission and the United States, that polygamous marriages should be forbidden, was to be Irrevocable without the consent of the United States and the people of the state.

Utah, both in her constitution and statutes. has provided for the punish ment of polygamy and all kindred offenses. No complaint has been or can truthfully be made that these laws are not enforced. All the members of the supreme court and seven out of the nine district judges in the state are non-Mor mons and, it is safe to say that the entire judiciary stand ready to enforce these laws. The public prosecutors are mostly non-Mormons and all, I believe, anti-polygamists.

During the past year the state has been raked in sear ch of cases of polygamy with which to feed the new modern sensation, but no complaint has been placed against any man charging him with this offense. So far Utah has sacredly kept the compact. But it is charged that the people of Utah have elected polygamists in that state to offices. This is true in some Instances and It is equally true that the United States, acting by the presi dent with the consent of the senate, has ap pointed polvgamists to office and, under such ap pointments, for almost three years these polygamists have held and are now holding important federal offices in the state of Utah. If this be a violation of the compact both parties have vio lated it, the president on the oms hand and electors of the state on the other.

Now that this question is raised, the moral sentiment of the country Is alarmed. They propose to demand a searching investigation and will be founa rendering full aid to any remedial measure deemed necessary to give assurance to the country that polygamy cannot liye anywhere in the United States or in any place over which they have jurisdiction. Terrific Windstorm In Montana. Minneapolis, Nov. 29.

A special to the Times from Great Falls, says: A terrific windstorm prevailed here all day and resulted in a serious accident on the Great Falls Canada railroad. A work train about a mile this side of Shelby Junction was blown from the track. "Six cars caught fire from the boarding car stove. One man was burned to death. Three others were injured, but it is thought not seriously.

The wind also blew a newsboy from the Neihart train just before it reached the city.

The way to obtain the rrT-oatct amnnrlt nf Railroad Men Lose Their Heads A Wreck Narrowly Averted.

An accident happened in the west end of the Santa Fe yards last evening which nearly resulted seriously to a stockman and all but resulted in a wreck of No. 4, the California flyer due here at 11:45. The switch engine had just completed making up a stock train, but for some reason or other failed to couple it together near the middle. In the meantime the road engine was backed into the head end and the brakeman discovering the train was not together, coupled it up and in doing so backed the rear end of the train so that it did not allow number four and ten lead track to clear. During this time the switch engine had run up the lead after some stone cars and all unaware that the way car on the stock extra did not allow them to clear, proceeded to back down at a goodly rate of Bpeed.

Then happened what could not be helped. There was a crash, a ripping, tearing sound mingled with the sound of es caping steam and then all was quiet, but just for a few seconds. A hasty inventory showed Conductor Reed's way car tilted nearly perpendicularly in the air and partly across the south main lines, one side staved in and the engine with a large hole in her tank out of which the water was pouring. As aoon as the smoke and steam cleared away, the switchmen discov ered a man cooly standing on the front platform of the car. When asked he replied that he was caught there.

It waa found that his overcoat and inside cost were both caught between the engine and way cat. With a little persuasion he was induced to get out of his coats and onto the ground. He had been standing on the lower step of the way car when the engine struck and but for a quick move at the very last second would have fared his coats' fate. In the meantime number four was bowling along at a high rate cf speed some where between Strong City and Ply mouth. Word was at once got to Dispatcher Phillips at the depot, who at once ordered No 4 to take the north main line at Plymouth.

This done it was discovered that a west bound freight train was standing on the same track in front of the yard office all ready to leave. By the quick work of Operator Perrine at the yard office she was flagged down and quickly backed off the line and all danger was over, and with it the excitement. The most excited man was an aged stockman who was standing on the way car platform when the accident happened. Between his laughing and crying he was telling anyone who would listen to him how narrow ly he escaped instant death by jumping over a man's head to the ground. The dis abled way car was quickly righted and business went on as though nothing had happened.

The annual parish meeting for the election of a vestry for the Episcopal church will be held tomorrow morning, immediately after the devotional services, 10:30 o'clock. It is requested that all parishoners be present. There will be a union Thanksgiving service tomorrow in the First Presbyterian church. The Presbyterians and Methodists will take part.

More than any other class of women the large army of women clerks needs to closely watch the health of the organs peculiarly -womanly. For the general health will be disturbed just in proportion as the local health of the delicate, womanly organs is disordered.

With irregularities there will come pains in the head, the back or side, nausea and general misery. The happiness of the future life of the wife and mother may be entirely ruined by neglect of the health at this critical period. Women confined in offices, shut out from necessary exercise will find a faithful friend in Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It so regulates the womanly functions and so strengthens the delicate organs that pain from these causes will be absolutely done away with and future health be perfectly assured.

There is no opium, cocaine or otner narcotic in "Favorite Prescription." Neither does it contain alcohol, whisky or other intoxicant. i was so weak I did not have breath to walk across mv room." writes Miss Isfoell Miller, of New Providence, Calloway Ky. My periods occurred too often and the hemorrhage would be prolonged and the loss of blood very excessive. I also had spells which the doctor said were fainting- fits. I could not tell when they were coming on but they left me very weak.

My stomach would cramp until I could not straighten. This would last for several hours. I did not rain strength from one monthly period to another; was very weak and nervous all the time. I was advised by a kind friend to try Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which I did and before I had taken two bottles of it I could work an day.

I took in all six bottles of the Favorite Prescription and about five bottles of Dr. Pierce's Pellets. I used no other medicine. I have never had a return of this trouble since, and never can praise Dr. Pierce's medicines enough, jar I know they saved my life.

Coats, Nov. 29. The M. E. foreign missionary fund of this circuit has just received $70 that was stolen from it in December last year.

A tramp begged 81 from the pastor of the M. E. church here. He watched the minister get the money and that night, while the minister was filling an appointment, the tramp broke into the house, went to the. place where he saw the minister get the dollar a few hours before and took $70.

Rev. F. B. Lawrence, pastor at Sawyer, which is in this circuit, received a letter recently with $70 inclosed, telling the circumstances of the occasion. The letter says the writer could not rest nights on account of the theft and asks that it be received back.

Representative DeArmond has laid before members of the Missouri delegation a plan whereby the Missouri democracy may duplicate its pioneering effort which made the great issue of 1896.

He wants Missouri to introduce what he believes is to be the great issue of 1900. That issue is anti-expansion. Mr. DeAr-mond advocates an early convention and a declaration of a carefully and clearly defined position on this issue by Missouri. He is confident that other states will follow, and that the -national democratic convention will adopt the Missouri platform on anti-expansion, just as occurred with the free silver in 1896.

INTERNAL BEVESUE BCBEAU REPORT. Washington, Nov.

29. Commissioner George W. Wilson, of the internal rev enue bureau, in his report to the secre tary of the treasury of the operations of his office for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1899, shows that the receipts from all sources aggregated an increase over the preceding year of $72,617,000, and an increase of $3,484,573 over the estimates the commissioner made one year ago. During the last year officers of the internal revenue seized 2,190 illicit stills and in the discharge of their duty one officer was killed and three wounded. Seven hundred and eleven persons were arrested in connection with illicit distilling which, the commissioner says, is rather on the increase in certain sections of the country.

The commissioner reccommends amendments to the war revenue act providing that estates in this country of persons residing abroad at the time of their death shall be taxed the same as the estates of persons residing in this country. Several other amendments to the law regarding the act on legacies are suggested. It is also recommended that agricultural fairs be exempt from payment of revenue tax. The commission makes many recommendations in regard to the distillation of spirits. THE YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK.

Washington, Nov. 29. Acting Superintendent Brown, of the Yellowstone national park, in his annual report to Secretary Hitchcock announces a total of 9,579 visitors to the park during the year. He recommends the appropriation of $300,000 for projected improvements, including many new roads and bridges. Legislation is recommended to make the forest reserve bordsring on the southern limits a part of the park.

It is believed the antelope in the park have increased within the last two years; bears are increasing and constantly breaking into buildings; deer are increasing; elk are rapidly increasing and now number from 85,000 to 60,000, but scouts report that about 5,000 died during the winter. There are probably 50 or more buffalo in. the park. Coyotes are far too numerous and poisoning them will be tried. The report says that as a game preserve the park is probably the greatest in the world.

i A STREET DUEL. A Megoat Plttabarfrn Flrei His Bevolve at a Policeman and Starts mm Exciting Fight. Pittsburgh, Nov. 29. An ex (siting street duel on Wylie avenue ester day between Policeman Forbes and Wilson Yancy (colored) resulted in the officer being wounded four times, from the effects of which he will probably die.

Forbes, who has been one of the city's pluckiest policemen, had arrested Yancy on two different occasions, the negro going to the workhouse each time. The last sentence expired Monday and Yancy returned to his old haunts. The story of the duel is to the effect that Forbes and Yancy met on the street and passed some remarks. When the policeman had turned to leave the negro pulled a 32-caliber revolver and put a bullet in his shoulder and this started the duel. -enator Hay ward's Condition Serious.
