A good sized audience attended the
production of Sydney Grundy’s “Sow-
ing the Wind” at Hoyt’s Theatre last
night. The author has produced a high
class melodrama which while not as
delicate as it might be, aflords many
suggestions that can be considered with
moral profit. While the play is open
to criticism the company. cannot be
improved upon. The Rosamond Of Miss
Meta Maynard was of a high order, and
the passages between Rosamond, Lord
Petworth and Mr. Brabazon were ex-
ceptionally fine. Marshall Stedman as,
Ned Annesley could not have been im-
proved upon and his really fine acting
was well received by the audience. The
batchelor, Mr. Watkins, as portrayed.
by J. Edwin Brown, was above criti-
cism and his acting in the last scene
when he discovers that he had been ’the
cause of his old friends sorrow, was
pathetic as well as grand. James Ed-
dy’s Sir Richard Cursitor, Miss Alethea
Luse’s Hon. Mrs. Fretwell. Miss Mary
Churchill’s Maud Fretwell and Mrs.
Casey’s Bridget, were all exceedingly
well rendered. '
At the first meeting of the new city
council held last night ‘Mayor Lee was
present with all of the members. A

resulted in placing of councilmen in
the following order:' Hatch, Ferris.
Weed, Kendall, Hutchinson, and
Pearson. After Organiz “tion the May-
or’s message was read and then the
bu§iness meeting commenced. A com~
municatiou from Ferris Morehouse Of-
~fering to perform the duties of engineer
for $5 per day was read and placed on
file after which Joseph R. Taylor was
many assistant. The Office of engineer
was next voted upon and. resulted in
3 votes for Waldo C. Briggs and 3 for
C. N. Wood. Mayor Lee broke the tie
by voting for Mr. Briggs. Mr. Briggs
was also elected street commissioner at
the same salary as last year. Charles
F. Hallock and Robert M. Wilcox were
appointed board of relief and B, J.
Qutbill elected fire marshal. The elec~
tion of health officer was postponed un-
til the nbxt meetingx E. V. .Baker was
elected chief engineer of the fire de-
partment and D. W. Hartord and

Cecil Rhodél’ Resignation Accepted and
His Successor Named—Tho Story of
,The Roleaso'of Dr. Jameson
Officially Denied.
LONDON, Jan. 7. —Del’ayed. dispatches
from Jolunnesburg are arriving here to‘
day.
On Tuesday" last ’there was intense; ex-
citement there,-the people hurrying into
townfrom the mines and suburbs. ,
The central committee constituted itself
a provisional gOvernment for the town"
and announced that ample provision would
be made to defend it against any body of
Boers. .
The provisional government was estab-_
lished in the .Consolidated Goldfields
building, and three maxim guns were
placed in advantageous positions about it.
The new g0ver‘nment then sent an ultl‘
matum to the government of President
Kruger, who proposed a conference at
Pretoria on the following day, Wednes-
day. . . .
The committee hesitated to go to Pre-
toria without a safe conduct.
’ Dr. Jameson at that time was hourly
expected at Johannesburg. Crowds of
eople surrounded the Consolidated Gold-
fields building. and the Viall‘k of recruiting
was in full swing. Numbers of people
Soft the town during the night in bands
of 50 each. . '
Later'the committee sent the following
communication to Sir Hercules Robinson,
the governor of Cape Colony:
"We have absolute information that a
large body of Boers has been commanded
to immediately attack Johannesburg and
shoot on sight all who haVO been concern-
ed in the agitation. Affairs 'are now so
critical that we ask you to intervene to
protect the lives of citizens who have long
agitated legally their rights.”
' The Capture of Jameson.
It is learned that after Wednesday’s
fight Dr. Jameson’s column, originally
about 700 men, moved southward, fight-
ing hard all the way throughout the night
and eventually reached Vlakvontein, six
miles from Johannesburg, on Thursday
morning, when the column was complete.
ly surrounded by a force Of 4,800 Boers.
In spite of this DIV. Jameson’s followers
fought stubbornly until noon, when all
their cartridges were exhausted. In addi-
tion, they had not tasted food for 24 hours
and were worn out with fatigue. But the
white flag was not hoisted by Dr, Jame-
scn’s orders. , _ »
It is known that Dr. Jameson expected
2,000' uitlanders to join him at Krugers-
dOrp. .
The Dutch press is jubilant at this low-
ering of British prestige and advocates
the incOrporation ‘of Rhodesia with the
Transvaal republic. '
Rhodes’ Resignation Accepted. -.
Dispatches received from Cape Town
say that the resignation of Cecilthodes
as prime minister of the Cape Colony has
been accepted, by Governor Sir Hercules
Robinson, and Sir Gordon'Sprig‘g, treas-.
urer of the Cape government, has been ap-
pointed in his place. '
Sir J. Gordon Spri'gg was colonial .seo-
, retary and premier of Cape Colony from
1878 to 1881, treasurer from 1,884 to 1886,
premier and treasiirer from 1886 to 1890
and treasurer from 1890 on. He was born
in 1830.
TheMorning Post, commenting on Em-
peror William’s message, says that Great
Britain 'must- strengthen herself without
delay and then proceeds to make detailed
suggestions for increases in the army and
navy.
The Chronicle says that Mr. Chamber-
ly dissociated the government from any
shadow Of complicity with Dr. Jameson.
The correspondents in Berlin of The
Morning Post and The Daily News tele<
graph that Germans are now less unani-
mous in their approval of EmperOr Wil-
liam’s message. -
e The Times says that Mr. Chamberlain’s
statement that Great Britain Would ad-
here to the convention of 1884 was con-.
else and adequate and will receive the
hearty and undivided support of the peo-
ple of Great Britain, who are prepared to
defend their just'clalms and repel preten;
sions inconsistent therewith, no matter
from how exalted a. quarter they may
come. Great Britain cannot for a moment
admit that Germany has any locus standi
in the matter. The paper adds: “We are
exhorted in the German press to secure
our position in the world by conclliating
.those who can do us the most injury.
When we need that kind of advice, We
shall probably seek it in quarters possess-
ing greater claims to our confidence and
respect. Our~ rapprochement wOuld not
be with Germany, but with powers which
she regards not wholly without apprehen-
sion.” ,
A dispatch received from Pretoria says
that Dr. Jameson, who has been a prison-
er there, has been set at liberty. No de-
tails are given. , .
The governor of Natal, Sir Walter
Francis Hely—Hutchinson, K. C. M. G.,
telegraphs upon Boer authority that 130,
of Dr. Jameson‘s followers were killed and
that 37 were wounded. On the Boer side,
it is added, only 3 were killed and 5
Wounded.
, The statement cabled to the United
States by a news agency that Dr, Jameson
had been. released from custody at Pro.
toria, Transvaal, is officially stated to be
without foundation in fact. ‘
BERLIN, Jan. 6.-—-Emp‘eror William, at
noon today, received Dr. W. J. Leyds, the

A Fatal
Accident Caused by Ice In the
Luke Elmer Workings. ' “
SHAMOKIN, Pa. ,' Jan. 7. —While four“
Workman were being lowered into the new.
shaft of the Luke Fidlermine today'the
“billy" fell upon them. - They wars in-
stantly killed. , - v -
The victims were
phen Merritt, Patrick Lynch and Peter
Bobert. . . .
Ten men wore engaged in sinking the
new shaft and were hoisted to the top to
eat their meal. An hour later the two
Merritts, Lynch and Bobsrt stepped into
the shaft bucket and Were being lowered
into theWorkings, but When the bucket
had descended about 800 feet, Engineer
Bowan noticed a jarring of the rope and
immediately stopped the machinery. , The
~workmen on top found that thelbuoket
was no longer attached to the Wire rope,
and they rigged another bucket and were
slowlylowerejd to the bottom of the shaft,
where they found the other bucket splin-
tered and the mangled and bleeding re-
mains Of. their four ill fated. comrades
dcattered over the rocky floor. All Were'
cad. '
‘met their sudden death was guided in- ith
upward and downward journeys by big
orcsspleces and arms known as the “hilly”
and weighing half a ton. The wire rope
passed through—this “billy, ” and it is sup-
the workmen Were eating their meal.
“billy” was caught by it, and the bucket
had descended several hundred feet before
the heavy Weight caused the ice to give
way'and allowed the “hilly” to fall upon
the men who were in the bucket. It isnot
thought that they were aware of their
danger. ‘ . .
This colliery has been idle since Oct. 8,
1894, when the mine was set on fire by a
careless workman and six lives were lost,
four Of the bodies not being recovered for
nearly a year. Bobert, who was killed
today, was a brother of one of the victims
of the former disaster. "
