London, October 29.���General Redvers Buller may bo expected at the Cape today. This.will be a very fast voyage, the mail steamers usually arriving jit Capetown on Wednesday of every week at the earliest, but in response to a re-' quest of the war office that sir Donald Currie should secure the'maximum speed, the steamer on which general- Buller sailed was provided with nine extra stokers. As reinforcements will ai'i'ive each day at Capetown general Buller ought to be in a position very soon to send troops to the relief of Mafeking and Kimberley without depreciating the .sti'eiigth of the 'great army corps whieli will march through Cape Colony and tho Orange Free State to Pretoria. Although these ainionncenients are not officially made as to the destination and movement of the.army corps, the troops will be conveyed by rail to De Aar Junction at least. If stations further north are by that time inaccessible, and will thence proceed noith ward by forced marches .to Bloemfouteinunci the Tisinsvaal. Military men regard the hostile attitude of the Fi'ee State as a blessing in disguise, owing to the\"'advantages of the country and diffiulty of defending it against an officer of Bailer's capacity and strength of forces. The Fi'ee State is not tin ideal base for a satisfactory invasion of the Ti'ansvaal, but it will sei've military re- quiremeuts much better than northern Natal.- ' '������ ��� * Meanwhile. genei-al White and Cecil Rhodes are facing the music. The latest Hows at liidiiight, was that general Joubert, with the full strength of the Boer forces in Natal, avjis within ji few miles of general White's position at Ladysmith'. A British recoiiuaisauce iu foi-ce came in contact Avith the enemy, bub failed to draw them for a -'strong position close to Ladysmith, but it seems highly probable; that a gresib bsitble may be pending. The destruction of the bridge over Sunday \"river,'it Avas estimated, would be certain to prevent the Boers bringing big guns to bear sit Ladysmith.. The Boers probably have twice the strength of the British field force in Natal, and possibly the proportion is three to one. From Dundee ugly rumors sire current that tho Boers havo been shooting inhabitants found with arms on them, but offering no resistance. Fortunately these stories have not been confirmed by good authority. - Emperor William's Approachiag Visit. . Ni_w Yoiuc, October SO.-^ Regarding the approaching visit to England of-emperor William, the .London. correspondent of the Tribune says-. \"The German .emperor, hits again become'a picturesque .figure on the European'stage. French Chauvinism * forgives him for having\" intervened\"at the close'of the Dreyfus trial to deprive the verdict of the judges of all moral force, and is now?coaxing him to stay away, from England. Bismarck's Ger-' man partisans are also warning him that it is more r important for him to remain on, close terms with the Czar- 1 than to win popuhirity in England. There is also the old time ^feeling, of jealousy, especially among - the com- mei'cial classes of Germany, which is not easily, erased witli the new trend of the - emperor's policy of friendship for England. His projected' visit to England has become a- matter of high diplomatic importance, and will be preceded-Avith a meeting of the C/.ar, AA'hich will nob lessen the signifiesince of the event. Natually, he is investing these incidents with an atmosphere,of mystery. smd the prominence attached to his movements imparts lustre to liis prestige and personal influence* iii European affairs. ���- - - - - MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 30, 1899. PUBLISHED AT NELSON, BRITISH COLUMBIA. DAILY (BY MAIL) $6 A YEAR; WEEKLY, $2. St. John's Ambulance Society, as auxiliary to the regular military corps. The latter is well equipped, but is perhaps numerically too weak. It was mobilized before the burghei'S were called to arms. When tlie war commenced several rsiil- road trains were made ready, fitted with swing beds and till modern conveniences for alleviating suffering. A field hospital was attached to every commando, and bhe hospital headquarters fixed at Pre- toi-ia, to which place all the burghers within reach of the railroad are sent with the least possible delay. The Avomen of Pretoria and Johannesburg responded nobly to bhe invitation to do volunteer duty in nursing, \"for the.sake of their Lord and their country,\" as. the pathetic,, appeal -read.- II. Blakeslee, chief repre- sentath'e in the Transvaal for tho St. John's Ambulance Society, Avith doctors Croghan, Lilloop and Mangold, organized classes,'and lessons in nursing and first- aid to the wounded sind other useful instructions were given. Several hundred Avomen regularly attended, and most of them are doubtless now at'.AvOrk. in Pie- torisi and iu the field. RUMOR'S OF INTERVENTION ARE MAFEKINO WILL NOT SURRENDER Bombarded for Three Hours. Capetown,.October 29.���The following dispatch, dated October 23rd, has been received from Mafeking: The enemy began a ''bombardment of Mafeking at 7:40 a. m. today, fit a range of tAvo miles and a hillf, their battery of three Krupp guns throwing seven pound, nine pound,, and twelve ..pound explosive shells. At the outset the firing AA'as erratic, but ultimately the Boers got the range and sent a number of shells into the town. Comparatively little damage aviis done, a eon- A'ent Avhich had been converted into a hospital, being the chief sufferer. This building Avas struck three times. Apparently the Boer ammunition avjis inferior. No casualties Avere sustained by the British, and only one shot Avas returned. This, however, aa'jis so Avell directed jis to disable one of the enemy's guns. After three hours the Boei's .sent an envoy to ask the town to preparo for surrender. Colonel Baden-PoAvell, the British. commander, replied in the negative. The shelling was nob resumed. A. later despatch from Mafeking says the Boers are in-possession of the Avater Avorks and htive cut off the supply. This occasions no anxiety because an ample supply is available in tanks aud wells.\" During a sorties-tills OA-ening the British encountered the enemy three,miles off to the north*. The Boers had apparently been warned and returned the British fire iu an earnest Avay^Avith. a Avell managed machine gun. . Our men had po intention of pressing au attack, they retired ini- medkttely.\" The conduct of our \"men Avas splendid. The loss of the enemy, could not be ascertained. Ladysmith Not Yet Attacked. Ladysmith, October 29.���At 5:25 p.m. everything here remains quiet, and the water supply is being renewed. A number of resident civilians have been ordered to Icjive the town under pcmilty of arrest. Lieutenant Miklejohn, of the Gordon 1 Lighlanders, avIio avjis Avounded at Elandslaagte in the arm, is improving after amputation of the member. Oaphtow.v, October 29.���A dispatch from Ladysjiij,fch dated October 2-or- able to England. The shipping trade is greatly alarmed. The Jinnonncement by Lloyds that ten guineas Avar risk is paid betAveen England and Russian ports created a panic on the exchange. The anti-British tone of the Belgian press is moderating, OAving to several official Avai-nings about the necessity of maintaining cordial relations Avith England. The Sick and Wounded Well Cared Por. London, October 29.���Today's mail brought an interesting dispatch from Pretoria respecting the Boer arrangements for dealing Avith the sick and Avounded. The Ti'ansvaal has the orthodox Red Cross Society and an efficient Boer Contingent Secretly Raised in Holland. Neav Your, October 29.���The London correspondent of the Sun says the British government luis reeeiA-ed positive information that tv contingent numbering .about 1000 lias been secretly raised in Holland to help tho Boers. Wealthy Amsterdam merchants found the money for the equipment.--Over -tAvo -hundred men ai-e already enroute, and the re- raainder Avill folIoAV in small detachments as they can obtain transportation. The rendezvous being Koomatiport, on tho Portuguese frontier, Avhere the commandant has been instructed Avhat to do Avith them. The men tt-iwel as returning Ti'ansA-tial citizens, and it is not believed that the Portuguese government can prevent them from proceeding over tho railway to the frontier. Probably the Bi'itish government has already made some sort of representations to the Dutch government, but the first confirmatory neAvs Avill likely come from Lorenzo Marquez\", Avhich is the chief town on Delagoa bay, in an announcement thatthe Dutch have been prcA-ented from landing. The goA'- ei'iior at Lorenzo Marques** is as zealous as though a salaried Biitish agent, and it is presumed that he acts on instructions from Lisbon. France .Will Not Interfere. ��� Paris, October 29.���Although there.is much hostility to Great Britain shown in the French press, moderate papers - like the Figaro, the Temps and the Debats, \"which reflect the A'iews held sit the Qiuii d'orsay, recognize the sheer folly of French interference ��� Avith Great Britain in the Transvaal and give promise to the exemplary neutral attitude observed by president MeKinley Avhen the petition for mediation avjis presented to him at Washington. The decision of bhe cabinet is stilted here to haA'e been a communication to the continental powers, informing them that the United States will not participate in any interference in the South African conflict, nor take a cour.se hostile to the interests or Avishes of Great Britain. It is stiid on high authority here to represent exactly the course adopted by the French government. Pronounced Idle Fiction. London, October 29.���All rumors that the European poAvers Avill intervene in the Transvaal are idle fiction. France and Russia may luive some ulterior purposes' if convenient opportunity arises for carrying them out, but thei'e Avould be no attempt to ' secure a coalition of the poAvers in favor of peace or enforcement of the principles of the congress at The Hague. France may ultimately purchase Cueta and the Canaries from Spain, or take possession of Morocco, and Russia may',\\ swoop ��� down upon Herat and strengthen her hold upon either Persia or China, but tliese siggressive policies AA'ill be deferred until England is deeply involved in South African affairs, if any attempts be made to take advantage of the war. The arbitration arrangements adopted at the peace congress cannot be applied to the Transvaal war Avithout the consent of England, and no European power,is prepared to affront the British government by suggesting that the names ofthe Orange Free State and the South African Republic Avere in the original list of the poAvers which the Dutch government submitted to.jbhe approval of count Muraviff before: invitations to the peace conference'were sent orit.. This list avjis revised.at'St. Petersburg, and Avhen the Dutch ministers tried, the names of the tAvo Dutch republics in Soutli Africa had been dropped. Russia Avas responsible for the exclusion of these two coiiiinon- Avealths'.from the congress. They were shut out because it was suspected at St. Petersburg that England would not allow themto be classed Avith sovereign states. Russia excluded them from participation iu the proceedings at The Hague, but president Kruger by his ultimatum took the most effective measures for interrupting the natural course of mediation and arbitration. He suddenly' brought the negotiations to an end and rendered Avar unavoidable, and in this Avay allowed no time for the application of these pacific forces Avhich the congress had recommended for a general adoption. When Avar; had once begun it was ' too late for either the Boei-s or .any sympathetic nation to suggest arbitration or mediation; - - - * Arbitration Avould have been equally- futile after the battles of, Manila and' Ssmtia'go,'in the. Spanish-American AA'ar. The suggestion that the American government shall intervene intho interest of- peace is regarded in, diplomatic cii-cles here as & vagary \"as flimsy as Ophelia's dreams.. The British government Avent out of its Avay before and during tho Spanish-American Avar to prevent European intervention in the Cuban question. It is .con tended by public men here that it Avould be a,J shabby return -for this favor, if the American government Avere now\"to thrust its good offices unasked upon Great Britain, and suggest either arbitration or mediation tis ii meiins of restoring peace. No serious attention is paid to rumors that such action is in contemplation in America. It is repeatedly asserted that the Transvaal is prepared to issne lettei-s of marque, their accredited envoy, Dr. Leyds, being fully empowered in that regard, and that arrangements are being made Jit Amster- dam to fit out a SAvift steamer. Tt is believed, hoAvever, that\" \"this projecTThiis\" been abandoned OAving to the vigilance of British ships of Avar in the English channel, which Would make it hopeless for any privateer to get clear JiAvsiy into the opeii sea unobserved. Except sis to Holland, there appeal's to be no popular sympathy Avith the Boers sufficiently strong to induce the sympathizers to run risks. In Normandy it is understood that ti number of officers on the retired list have gone to the Ti'ansvaal, and others are preparing to go, all carrying commissions iu tho Boer Jinny, given through Dr. Leyds*. The arrangement in each case is for each officer to pay his oavu transport tation as-far as Koomentfar, but are to receive pay on taking duty. These men are actuated purely by professional in-* terest, and doubtless would jis readily liave accepted commissions in the British army, if they could have been obtained. It is Ayorbhy of note that the Italian govei'iniient has not issued si declaration of neutrality, smd the purchase of mules' by British agents continues unchecked, on the ground that they are not contraband. In the Vatican no attempt has been made - to hide the sympathy for England. It is understood, moreoA*er, that the Catholic prelates of .South Africa haA'e been instructed to give no moral support to the Transvaal or Orange Free State, because in both these countries the fsiithful have always been under the bann, Avhile in England and the colonies there is no cause for complaint. THREE WAYS, EITHER OF WHICH Would be Satisfactory to Canada. Nkw' Y��bk. October 29.���Sir Louis Davies, Canadian minister of marine and 'fisheries, arrived here yesterday-on the Cunaid line .steamer Campania. HW Avent to-England three weeks ago to lay before tho imperial government Canada's views on the Alaskan boundary question. With him Avent the under secretary of state, Joseph Pope, and the chief astronomer, W. F. King, avIio surveyed tho line for Canada. When seen on the pier yesterday sir Louis said: \"I cannot speak at\" length-about the Avork accomplished in England, as it is confidential. As; has been published, a temporary tir- rangement has been agreed upon,, and in so far as it .will-'prevent local -friction- it is satisfactory. The modus vivendi does not, hoAveyer, foreshadoAV Avhat the permanent solution of the dispute Avill be. It is absolutely necessary for us to coihe tofsome understanding,-for., we have large interests there, and the situation Avas becoming intolerable. The joint high commission AA'ill ai*riiiige the conditions on Avhich the question can be settled. Canada AA'ants only Avhat arbitration Avill give.us. We are not grasping or seeking concessions. What Ave want is out- rights.\". ���-.-. .Sir Louis added'that both lord Salisbury and -Mr. Chamberlain had.told him they Avere determined to have' the question settled amicably, and he said they scouted tlie idea of any other means being used but die most friendly ones. \"I may \"say,\" added sir Louis, \"that the Canadian government entertains similar- feelings. We haye three propositions to make, Avliieh are: Unconditional arbitration of ;the Avhole dispute; arbitration ou similar terms to the Venezulan arbitration; or arbibration on the basis that if the United Stabes shall keep Dyea and Skaguay, it Avill concede Pyramid harbor and adjacent territory to Canada, thus giving us a harbor on the Lynn canal. Lord Salisbury is ready to adopt either of these propositions. I cannot say how soon the matter Avill be settled, but I hsive no .doubt that the time is not f;ir distant.\" ceived a chorus of praise, came about in the'following Avay: Tho director general of the army medical department, having in view the probability of tliere beimr sevei-al lines of communication, thought it Avould be desirable to haA'e consulting .surgeons of large experience Avith each force. These surgeons Avould be especially useful in cases Avhere the question of major operations might arise, and Avould relieve the already busy ordinary surgeons of great anxiety and lesponsibility. The marquis of Lansdowne, the secretary of state for Avar, agreed that the emergency-aviis one of Avhich the leading civilian surgeons might be notified. He therefore asked the advice of professor ���McCorniick, avIio immediately proffeied his \"ownservices, Avhich are of the most valuable nature. His experience Avith surgery in the field is unrivalled in this country, and specially equipped surgeons Avill accompany him. During the Franco- Prussian Avar many leading German civilian surgeons gswe tlieir services to the army in a consulting capacity. The same was true of the Russian surgeons dining the Russo-Turkish Avar. SARDINIAN SAILS AT NOON TODAY With the Canadian Contingent. Private advices received iu Nelson yesterday Avere to the effect that the Ctma- dism contingent AA'ere to sail on the Sardinian from Quebec City ab noon today, instead of at noon on Tuesday.

NO TIME ISTOBELOST IN MAKING The City a Proposition. President Shaughnessy of the Cariadiaii Pacific Railway Company proposes to give the people of Nelson an early ou- portunity of saying Avhether or not they are desirous tluit Nelson shall be made a divisional point on the Canadian Pacific company's railway system. The raihvay company is prepared to get to Avork at once, and superintendent Marpole Avill return to Nelson sometime during next Aveek and submit the raihvay company's proposition to the city council. Although no details have yet been published, it is stated that the company proposes to make very heavy expenditures in Nelson. The present yard is to be remodelled, and the frame buildings which do duty at present are to be replaced by substantial structures. As the company will endeavor to havo all the new buildings aboi-e ordinary high Avater it will be necessary to move the depot and freight shed in closer to the high gtound on Vernon street, beloAv Raihvay sti-eet, and iu order to get a little more room, one part of the railway company's request a\\ ill be that the people of Nelson psiss a byltiw condemning the blind ends of Vernon, Baker, Victoria and Slocan streets and turning the same over to the company.

The only coinp reached without strife aud wrangling eompai'ed to which the discussion in Canada has been mere child's play. The grant in Tasmania was reduced, .and iu some of the othei- colonies the proposal to aid.Britain was antagonized more bitterly by men of. English .origin than in Canada by men of Fj-encli origin. Canada is doing nobly, and as the boys, English and French, Protestant and Catholic, go to the front, united for the honor of their own dear conutry, and defence of tlie great British empire, they will leave behind them a people oue in the prayers for their diifety, and in the hope... of British victory early nnd.complete. Losses Heavier Than at Alma. London, October 29.���Tlie large number of Bi'itish ..officers killed in the battles which have already taken place in Natjil luis brought out strenuous protests from many quarters against the ancieut cusr torn of Bi'itish officers in refusing\"'to-take, cover when under fire. From -figures at Gleneoe it is apparent that one out of every four killed was an officer, whereas the organization exists upon the principle that to every 25 men there Is one officer. It is evident tluit is the .same ratio of morality is kept up the British forces will become seriously under-officered. Among enlisted men at Gleneoe the proportion of killed to wounded was 30 to 156, while ten ������ officers- were killed to 22 officers-wounded. The difference in the percentage leads to tlie conclusion that many of the officers were hit more than once and kept on leading their men after the first wound. The proportion of the casualties, as a whole, has caused-a thrill of horror and sympathy throughout Great Britain, for the people now begin to reali/.e what a fight with a civilized enemy means. Old soldiers point out that at the Alma, one of the bloodiest battles in Gi'eat Britain's annals, the casualties totaled only 6 per cent, whereas, in. the Boer engagements, they have considerably exceeded that figure. ^-__^_M-n_B*--a_�� p__.��^_a_^-M_-^_-_--B-__ The Tremont Hotel N|AL0flE _ TRECILLUS PROPRIETORS ag< .C=>.C=>.l.

Byers was settled Siitui'diiy afternoon. In this ejise George A. Bigelow sued Hamilton Byei-s foi- several months' wages as manager of the Goat Jliver Lumber Company and also for the balance of the purchase 'price of the mill. His claims, all told, amounted to .$1505. Tlie defendant put in a counter claim amounting to $1958.75. By the terms of the settlement, both the action jind the counter-claim wei'e dismissed without cost and without prejudice. The plaintiff, Bigelow, also admitted, and agreed to admit in any other action which nuiy be bi'ought, that tlie bill of sale referred to in tlie pleadings was given to the defendant as security only, and avjis always so treated by both parties ; that Hamilton Byers avjis never at any time a partner or interested iti the Goat River Lumber Company. The defendant .consented and tlie plaintiff agreed to place in the hands of a trustee all logs sind lumber on the prenrises of the Goat River Lumber Company at Creston, Avho shall sell the same and apply the pi'oceeds in settlement of the claims against the company for*wages.
