Whole \%.T«ilable Strcagtli of British BwipiretoBe Flnne Tnto 8ontli Afric* --MobiliMtion Will Take Five Week* --First Plan of Campaign Abandoned. England is aroused indeed. All her re­ serves, a strong force of yeomanry, oth­ er mounted volunteers, all her available colonial troops, and a strong division of militia are ordered to the seat of war. Field Marshal Lord Roberts will go as commander-in-chief, and Gen. Lord Kitchener, of Khartoum fame, will ac­ company him as second in command. These startling orders have been issued by the war office. They mean that al­ most the whole strength of the British empire will be flung into Sttuth Africa. The mobilization of the troops 'n^Lbe pushed with the greatest possible #Jed< and the fastest ships from the Bijjrash merchant marine will be used to hurry the forces to the Cape. It is calculated that these re-enforcements will begin to reach South Africa in about five weeks. Meantime the original campaign will be abandoned, and a general policy of mark time will be adopted by the commanders of the forces now in the field. The news of Great Britain's tremen­ dous preparations may spur the Boers into serious aggression before the fresh British troops arrive, but thus far they have shown no desire to attack intrench­ ed forces, while the British disasters have been caused by just that' thing. Besieged Towns Must Wait. All the indications now point to the be­ ginning of a great campaign late in Jan­ uary. fvIeMuliuie LadysKi;th, Iviciberley and Mafeking must wait. Their situa­ tion is perilous, but according to all ac­ counts there is n© serious danger that famine will be added to their other suf­ ferings. The chief interest in the new campaign centers in the Government's decisiorf^tC use as volunteer forces the yeomanry and militia. For active service the yeo­ manry should supply a useful contingent. They, as the London Telegraph edito­ rially Bays, "like the rest of the volun­ teers, are drawn from the great middle snd lower middle classes in England, Scotland and Wales. They may not pos­ sess the mechanical perfection of drill •f the regulars, but there are no better cross-conntry riders in the world than the British yeoman." Section D of the reserve, which has been called out, consists of men who have BALLOON SEARCH LKJHT USED BY THE BRITISH. CIIBBAL KITCHENER. completed the term of their original en­ listment and w^o engage to serve an ad­ ditional four years. The militia are the same class of men as the regulars, and are in camp a month annually. These, together with the re­ serves, number 113,000 men. Their chief lack is officers. The yeomanry, the back­ bone of which is young farmers, are well officered, often by men retired from the regular cavalry, who, marrying young, settle on their country estates. They number 10,207. All are well mounted on their own horses. In the militia are 14,734 artillerymen and 1,864 engineers. Of the militia only 14,000 are over 35 years of age. Similar numbers are aged 30 and 35, and the re­ mainder are under 30. Over 32,000 are agricultural laborers, 13,0(K) miners, and 10,000 artisans. The volunteer infantry contains some regiments that are consid­ ered the equal of any of the regular regi­ ments. It also includes the best shots, bnt their average shooting is lower than that of the regulars. The Government indicates the number of volunteers that will be permitted to serve, but Lord Rob­ erts' grand army will probably reach a Uital of rather over 180,000 of all arms. PANIC IN STOCKS. Third Serious Defeat of British in Afri­ ca Sends Values Crashing; Down, The third defeat of the British in the Transvaal made a second panic on the stock exchanges Monday. Twice within a week securities in England and the United States suffered severely. Mon­ day values receded as precipitously and almost as far as in the slump of the pre­ vious week, when the industrials were (Hie shining mark of the professionals and their backers, who were tforking for "a December drop to make room for the January rise."

Heads were broken, several Transvaal and Irish flags were destroyed, and many arrests made. Maud Gonne, the so- called "Irish Joan of Arc," and James I Connolly, the Irish republican, drove in a wagonette to the place appointed for the meeting, which was attended by a large crowd. Mr. Connolly fried to speak, but was prevented by the police, he wagon­ ette then made a tour of the street, the crowd rapidly increasing, cheering for the Boers, singing "God Save Ireland" ',4-acd "We'll hang Joe Chamberlain on a sour apple tree," and using insulting ex­ pressions against the queen, the empire and the army.' As the wagonette was passing Dublin Castle Miss Gonne waved the Transvaal flag defiantly, and it was promptly jerk­ ed from her hand by police who stopped the vehicle. Attended by police, the .wag­ onette was driven to the rooms of the Irish Transvaal committee* Michael Davitt, William Redmond and J. O'Brien were in waiting there. These men made speeches to the audience of about sixty, after which Maud Gonne and Mr. Con­ nolly drove off with the : intention of holding open-air meetings, but the police arrested Mr. Connolly. During the meeting Michael Davitt said: "All ,Irishmen rejoice in the tri­ umphs of the Boers. No power in Eu­ rope would now fear Great Britain, ex­ cept, perhaps, the prince of Monaco." Mr. Redmond said: "Mr. Chamberlain deserves not doctors, but executioners." Ultimately a resolution, proposed by Mr. Davitt, was carried denouncing the war and calling upon the powers, partic- ulffrly the United States, to take steps to insure the independence of the Boer re­ public. HOUSE PASSES CURRENCY BILL. Vote Is 190 to 150, Eight Democrats Favoring the Measure. The debate on the currency bill was concluded Saturday, and Monday the House passed the bill by a vote of 190 yeas t'o 150 nays. The following Demo­ crats voted for the bill: Clayton of New York, Denny of Maryland, Driggs of New York, Fitzgerald of New York, Rup- pert of New York, Scudder of New York, Thayer of Massachusetts and Wilson of New York. If passed without material amendments the House bill will provide for the posi­ tive recognition of the gold dollar as the sole unit and standard of value; for the redemption of all government obligations, including silver dollars, which are merely metallic promises to pay, in gold coin; for the payment of all time obligations or government bonds in the same coin; for the abolition of the tax on bank circu­ lation and for the issuance by the na­ tional banks of notes up to the par value of the bonds deposited as security. This is the bill in a nutshell, t^e various re­ maining features being of minor impor­ tance. The Senate will not discuss the House measure. It experts to proceed with the consideration of its own bill after the holiday recess, and as that differs mate­ rially from the alternative bill a confer­ ence will eventually have to reconcile the two chambers and prepare a compromise measure. KEVIEWSCONDUCTOFTHEARMY '•'* 8. N.,U. No. 52 r-rsi ^ um PTION .•'•m the Rockefeller party and the Gotham syndicate found too late that too much pressure has been utilized. The markets slumped beyond their control. The arti­ ficial scare was made a reality by the battleB in the Transvaal. London, instead •f buying here on the breaks, ,was com­ pelled to liquidate, and London's liquida­ tion became inductive. Houses with foreign connections were forced io relinquish stocks that had been carried to thi time the English began to sell. The pressure spread until it was reported that the Rockefeller party, the Whitney syndicate and the Flower com­ bine were forced to yield in their pet properties. Banks Refused to advance more money and brokers bccame insist­ ent in the matter of margins. Computed at Monday's level, the losses in the value of stocks 1 and bonds amounts to more than all the gold ever taken out of the Transvaal. | Continued liquidation it Wall street caused the suspension of wo large trad­ ing houses--the Produce Exchange Trust Company and Henry Allen & Co., bank­ ers and brokers, both in Now York City.

A special from Washington says that Inspector General Breckinridge's annual report to the general commanding is this year, as formerly, a searching review of the conduct of the army and an expert criticism of its organisation of .the most interesting and valuable character. It is an unusually voluminous docu­ ment, with many excellent photographic illustrations, and will prove entertaining and instructive not only to officers in the service but to legislators who will be call­ ed upon to consider needed reforms in the service. It is notable that nearly all the inspector general's suggestions were adopted by Secretary Root in his recom­ mendations to Congressl (chooZS Johns Hopkins is to have a graduate students' club. • Dartmouth College has-twenty-four stu­ dents from Chicago.

Chicago Correspondence: TOCKS, because of excitement in Lon­ don oh account of British reverses, slumped to such an extent during the week as to bring on a semi-panic. An army of traders has been forced to liq­ uidate its holdings. Prices for a number of the leading stocks have touched the lowest points of the year. The selling was induced to some extent by fear of gold shipments. After a week of much apparent heavi­ ness wheat at the close of the session Saturday was only %c a bushel lower than it was the Saturday previous, but the situation does not appear promising for any immediate or near-by advance in price, stocks in sight being adequate and prospects for future supplies more en­ couraging to consumers than to growers. The problem connected with the future value of corn is hotly debated by the spec­ ulators who make a specialty of dealing in that commodity. Estimates of the last crop generally agree in a generous total of about 2,000,000,000 bushels, and there is further concurrence in an opinion that such quantity is an ample provision for all possible requirements.' If farm­ ers, however, in view of the small re­ serves of old corn, heavy export demand, great interior demand for feeding and uncertainty of the crop to follow, con­ clude to hold off the market any consid­ erable proportion of their grain, the ample crop might be made to appear inade­ quate. Prices now ruling are moderately low, but not so enticingly cheap as to attract buyers prepared tp crib and hold in the country any unusual quantity, and it is questionable if, in the present tem­ per of the speculative community, any considerable addition to commercial stocks in sight would be posible without some material concession in price. The natural conclusion from such prein ises is that the course of the market will follow the indications of the growers' intentions to accept current prices or to keep back supplies of any magnitude un til they can make some calculation v garding the prospects for another crop. Receipts meantime are small, without any decided prospect of material enlarge­ ment', and with exporters still in the marr ket for considerable quantities. LIEUTENANT BRUMBY~DEAD. Dewey's Flag Officer at the Battle of Manila Passes Away. Lieut. Thomas M. Brumby, flag secre­ tary to Admiral Dewey, who had been ill with typhoid fever, died at Garfield hos­ pital in Washington Sunday evening. Lieut. Brumby went out to the Asiatic station with the admiral and re­ mained there until both returned to the United States sev­ eral months ago. In his capacity as flag lieutenant to the admiral Lieut. Brumby was with his chief practically all the time, and acted as his personal representative in many matters of detail. The lieutenant's illness dated from about Nov. 27, the first symptom being nothing more than a cold, which, how ever, failed to yield to treatment, and soon afterward he went to the Garfield hospital. The officer's aged mother is living in Marietta, Ga. His father, who is dead, wus a colonel of the Fourteenth Georgia regiment in the Confederate army. Lieut. Brumby was 44 years old and unma'^d. In his report of the battle of Manila Admiral Dewey spoke in very complimentary terms of the services and gallantry of his flag lieutenant and rec­ ommended that he be advanced on the list of lieutenants. The lieutenant's death is the third among the officers as­ sociated with Dewey at the battle of Ma­ nila. The others were Capt. Gridley and mmandcr Wood. Lieut. Brumby was presented a sword by the Legislature of Georgia Oct. 26. He remained in Georgia some days after that and returned to Washington about the middle of November. i WAR NEAR AN END. % ACTS GENTLY ON THE KIDNEYS, LIVER AND BOWELS CtEANSES THE $YSTEM The Aetres* Was Pef-d. A few weeks ago a pretty little Paris­ ian gctress was appearing at a theater in Geneva. On the last night of the play a tall, well-dressed man sent In hi» card and asked permission to thank her personally for the pleasure that her performance had given him. He enter­ tained her at supper, and asked per­ mission to see her off at the station on the following day. He arrived with his groom, who was carrying a tremendous bouquet of flowers. He told her that he had telegraphed to his brother, who wa9 in Paris, and who bad influence both with the press and the theatrical managers, and that he would meet her on her arrival in Paris. To the astonishment of the actress all this turned out to be true,and she found j a magnificent carriage at the station. A fine dinner followed. The girl was I dumb with astonishment. Her host | told her that it was all for the sake of | his brother, whom he loved dearly, and he spoke pathetically of the beautiful bouquet she carried, and which was made up of the flowers culled in the garden of the old homestead. She offered him the bouquet instantly, and he accepted it with a thousand thanks. Now she has found out why she was treated so well.

A correspondent of the London Times at Pretoria describes graphically how the Boer army was "commandeered," and the account bears out his assertion that the method is "free from all tram­ mels, of red tape." The leading principle is that every male old enough to carry a gun must come out to flglit when called upon, and that every article in the country, to wnonisoever it may belong, if only it can be made to subserve some warlike purpose, can be requisitioned, or "com­ mandeered," to use tJie Boer phrase, at a moment's notice. Horses are simply annexed from their stables or taken out of the shafts in the streets; the saddlers* and the provision merchants' stores are gutted. Their horses, luggage and all are packed like sardines into the trains and sent off to the front, where, on arriving, they somehow sort themselves out again. Never was there quite so wonderful' an army in its way; old farmers, boys from school, members of the Raad, clerks in the government offices, shop­ keepers, lawyers and what not are all swept into the "net of the "commando."
