Tenth Day Olmmoflolaad 3. lo-
llaeass for the Ala-a Telesales.

New York. November 2’i-The tenth

day of the trial of Roland B. Moli-
neaux. who is scuttled of poisoning
hire. Kate J. Adams. began with the
usual hunt for jurors. The. first tales.
man called for the day was Albert J.
Weisch. who was the Mist taicsman to
be examined. He was opposed to the
death penalty on circumstantial evi-
dence and was excused. to be followed
by John Cohen. who was excuse-d for
the same reason.

Five talesrnen were then examined
and escirsed. three baseline of prejudice
against capital puni’ahrnnt. one on ac-
count. of opposition to circumstantial
evidence when the penalty of crime
was (loath. and the other for defective
knowledge of English.

Charles H. West. superintendent of
a printing house. passed through the
examination for implied and actual
bias; knew none of those interested in
the rinse and knew of no rear-ion why
he could not make a fair. impartial
juror; but in answer to a question
put by Mr. Weeks he said: "My busi—
ness would suffer and cause me more
or less anxiety. but if i took the onto
an a juror, i would simply face my
trouble and do the best i could."

The question of the tnlesrnan's bush
neas anxiety was gone into at some
length. and he was excused, the at-
torneys feeling that anxiety over busi-
ness matters would prevent his giving
undivided attention to'the testimony.
No juror was secrired up to recess.

Cape Town. November 27. afternoon
-—-it is reported that General Methuen
has captured Honey Nest Kloof ten
miles north of Gran Pan, and two mil-
lion rounds of ammunition.

Londom November 27wNone too
soon for the British has come the news
of the improved outlook for them on
both the eastern and western sides of
the South African Republics, as the
constant small reverses were arousing
keen resentment against the author-
ities here. This was evidenced by the
result of the Wandsworth election to
the London county council on Sutur-
dny. when the previous conservative

plurality of 910 was converted into a
liberal plurality of 232. The Conser-
vatives have made the war an issue and
their candidate was a military officer

To General Methucn. it appears, he-
longs the honor of the first real victory
of the present war. as Belmont was the
first battle after which the British ad-
vanced instead of retiring. The fact
that General Methucn was forced to
fight a second pitched hattie near the
scene of the first. shows the Boers
were not demoraliaed at Belmont. but
quickly rallied and with utmost cour-
age met the splendid assault of the Bri-
tish naval brigade at Cras Pan. The
excellent military qualities displayed
by the Boers in these two lights were
no doubt partially derived from the
training of Commandant Albrecht, a
former oflcer of the Austrian army.

Presumably General Methuen has alo
ready resumed his march northward.
lie was last heard from. still nearly
fifty miles from Kimberley. and doubt-
less an action will harm to be fought or

is relieved.

There is some doubt as to what is
meant in the statement that the Boers
are falling back on Warrenton. which
in fifty miles north of Kimberley. un-
less the despatch was intended to fall
into British hands in the hope of mis-
lcndlug General Methucn. The latter
however. is said to be far too cautious
to be caught by such a trick. and. it
is added. it can be confidently unti-
cipatcd that his column will mace
steadily forward in spite of the deter-
mined resistance be will meet with. '

The conclusion must be accepted
however. that the Boers arc deliberate
in their misuse of white flags. (in top
of General Methuen's warning and oth-
er evidence comes the statement of
Correspondent Knight. who has arriv-
ed at Cape Town wounded. He says
