for sustaining him in so doing.

Flower of the Transvaal, ls bis-
credited.
London, October ill—The Daily

Mail’s correspondent at Glcucoe Camp,
telegrapbing under date of October 17.
evening, says:

“The Boers opposite the camp are
having their numbers strengthened.
and the belief ’prevails that when
strong enough they will seek to reach
Dundee from the southeast.

"A clergyman living at Dannauser,
who has arrived at the camp, states
that he saw a strong commando ap-
proaching Danuauser at 3 o'clock this
afternoon."

Natal again claims a share oi the at-
tention which, during the last few
days, has been focused upon! the be.
iesguered garrison at Matching. The
combined advance oi the Boer forces
on the positions held by the British
general commanding in Natal, Sir

George Stewart White, has already oc-
casioned a sharp affair of outposts.
which possibly has since developed into
a pitched battle. The Boers, according
to the latest information at band, do
not appear to have been driven back.
Perhaps, however, their movements are
only a part of a general plan to isolate
Ladysmith and Glencoe from the south.

The simultaneous Boer movements
from Acton Homes, from the west, and
from Rorkes Drift and Helpmakeer.
from the cast. may indicate a projected
attach upon the railway below Colem-
so.

The movement from the east also
suggests an attack upon the railway
at Waschbank, between Ladysmltb and
Giencucu

Military exports are inclined to the
opinion that the troops at Glencoe are
only a small rear guard left to attract
the force under Commandant General
Joubert, while General White's full
strength is concentrated at Lad smith.
with a view oi attacking the huge
Free State force while General Joubert
ls still forty miles away.

Stories of British successes in tile
Mafeking district are so persistent that
in the absence oi contradiction from
Boer sources, they may be accepted a:-
true in the main. although the alleged
killing of 300 Boers is discredited.
General Cronje’s troops are regarded
as the flower oi the Transvaal forces.
80 decisive fighting has still to occur
on the western border. and if. as was
intimated in last night's despatches.
relief is approaching from Rhodesia,
it will probably not be long delayed.
Apart from their desire to gain an
initial advantage by capturing liste-
kiug and thereby attracting the Dutch
colonists. the object of the Boers in
massing Bechuanaland is due doubtless
to the fact that this splendid stock
country is full of cattle. and as it is
only sparcely settled would give the
Transvaal a route by which to import
arms and munitions by way oi Wal-
ilsch Bay. Damaraland. on the West
African coast.

A despatch from Pretoria asserts
that the Transvaal government has ca-
bled to Joseph Benjamin Robinson.
the millionaire gold mine owner and
chairman oi the Robinson South Airl-
can Banking Company. who Is now in
London, to return to Johannesburg. on
pain oi the conflstication of his prop-
erty. Mr. Robinson characterizes the
alleged threat as ridiculous.
He says he is a British subject. that
the Transvaal government has no right
to demand his return and that hispm
perty has not been and cannot be con-
iterated.
Portugal. according to a dcspatch
from Berlin. has given distinct assur-
ances oi her neutrality. A continuance
oi commerce with the Transvaal. by
way oi Delngoa Bay, is therefore se—
cured.
According to private information re~
ccived here from Bloemfontein capital
0‘! the Free State. President Kruger
telegraphed an account to President
Sleyn, of the affair at Kraaipan. where
the Boers derailed and bombarded the
British armored train. carrying Cap-
tain Nesbitt's party. Mr. Kruger said
that Neshltt and several men were ser-
iously wounded. that no one was killed
and that all the prisoners are well.
According to the same advices, a
Dutch farmer living in one of the bor-
der towns has received a letter from a
friend in the Transvaal referring to
the Mafeklng as "bad business.
The Associated Press learns that the
transports which will convey the army
corps about to start for South Africa.
will go neither to Durban or Cape
Town. both of which are already over-
crowded with refugees. but to Port
Elizabeth. Port Alfred and hat Lon-

New York, October 19~Tbere was a
cloudless blue sky over The Battery at
7 o'clock this morning and a light but
steady northwest breeze was blowing.
The Long Island and Jersey shores of
the upper bay were slightly covered
with base. but the indications were
that the day would be clear and cool-
er, with light to fresh north to north-
westeriy winds.

The steamer Blackbird, flying the
Shamrock's flag, was at her usual
place near the barge office, waiting for
the guests of hlr Thomas Lipton, and
four or five despatcb boats were also
moored in that vicinity, awaiting the
scribes who were to report what was,
they hoped. to ac the last of the series
of races this year for the America's
cup. There was much speculation as
to the result of the Shamrock's-added
ballast and increased waterline. The
old salts aids the water front, howev-
er. adhered t their former statements
that the Columbia had the stuff in her
to beat the green flycr in any and all
sorts of a breeze.

The Blackbird left The Battery
shortly before 8 o'clock. Among
those on board were Abner McKinley,
Jesse Colings. M. l’.. James Craig, Wil-
liam Love. William Murray. William
Gibson, Edward A. Sumner, E. Scott
Watson. Charles A. Meltzer and Paul
Waterlow, Miss Bond. Mrs. ‘ Ronald
Stuart. Judge Littler, Q. C., and John
Plait.

The shore observers of The Associa-
ted Press were alert and weighing the
weather soon after sunrise. Sandy
Hook reported a good northwesterly
breeze and promise of a One race. and
the seven other stations corroborated
it and showed observation varying
from five to ten miles. The sea was
smooth. .

On board the Columbia and the
Shamrock the crews were up with the
sun, and soon afterwards had their
Jiba and staysails up in stops and cov-
ers off their mainsaill. ready to make
sail at a moment's notice. By 8 o’clock
the Shamrock had been taken In tow
by the tug James A. Lawrence and was
heading for the point of the Hook. She
had her mainsail up and was sending a
clubtopsail of small size aloft.

The Columbia, which was then fast
to her buoy. commenced hoisting her
mainsail. Five minutes later the
Shamrock was under sail in the lower
bay. She had mainsail. clubtopsail
and jib set and was trying bcrnew
topmast.

One or two ocean liners going down
the buy early in the morning saluted
the yachts as they passed out to sea.
while around on the waters hovered
the usual flock of fishermen, skimming
about in a lively manner under the
freshenlng breeae.

According to the rules the yachts to

day were set down .for a fifteen mile
run or heat from Sandy Hook Light-
ship and return. and early this morn-
ing the conditions indicate that the
yachts would go before the wind in a
aoutheasteriy direction, with a heat
back, a total distance of thirty miles.
This course would mean musing
straight out to sea. away from either
shore. and with no chance of luky
winds 0! the Jersey or Long island

Some of the old Isbermeu ntvthe

when/ they saw the northwest winds

out and that the weather would proba-
bly be a repetition of that of two
weeks ago.
