LONDON, Oct. 27.—The Field gives prominence to a letter dealing with Lord Durham’s charges against American Jockeys, in which the writer regretfully chronicles the complete Americanizing of Newmarket. After saying that he agrees with Lord Durham, the writer says: “The rank and file of American visitors are unmitigated nuisances. Visit New- market any morning and what do you s Buckboards and buggies in place of English traps; American women with tow-colored hair and the complexion of a French clown; the American jockey and hiz entourage of hangers-on; and, worse than all, a huge sprinkling of unattached American loafers who claim they are friends of the trainers and jockeys, but who in reality are gamblers of the worst type, who have merely sought to find on 'om Tiddler's ground where they will not be interfered with by the police, to whom they sre not known. In fact, Americans during . the resent season have almost dominated Newmarket. It is English money they have come after, and many of them are not very scrupulous how they get it.” o e e WANT A LOW CHURCHMAN. Lord Salisbury Memorialized by the Kensitites. TLONDON, Oct. 27.—The resignation of the Bishop of Exeter, the Right Rev.

An encounter as dramatic as any that marked the battlefields of South Africa may shortly occur at Marseilles. The plan of Joseph Chamberlain, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, to go to Marseilles to meet Mrs. Chamberlain, who is now at Alx-les-Bains. will more than probably be effected about the time Mr. Kruger is ar- riving at the same port on the Dutch steamer Gelderland. = Judging from the tone of French public opinion, the simui- taneous arrival of these two leading fig- ures n the late world drama would afford nrpnrtunltl?fi for demonstrations not too pleasant for Mr. Chamberlain and which might possibly cause international com- plications that would be hard to settle | peaceably. BRITISH CAVALRY AMBUSHED. Fifty Captured b; ioers Near Spring- | fontein. LONDON, Oct. 2I.—A dispatch recelved at the War Office from Lord Roberts, dated Pretoria, Friday, October 26, refer- ring to the fighting of General Barton's column with General Dewet's forces on October 2, says: “The British losses were heavier than at first reported. An additional officer and twelve men were killed and three officers and twenty-five men were wounded. The Boers left twenty-four dead and nineteen wounded on the field and twenty-six Boers were made prisoners. Three Boers who held up their hands in token of surrender and then fired on the British were court- martialed, convicted and sentenced to death, I have confirmed the sentence.” The dispatch also refers to minor affairs in which the troops of General Kitchener and Gencral Methuen were engaged, and a serious incident between Springfontein and Filipolis, Orange River Colony, where fifty cavalrymen were ambushed and cap- tured by the Boers, only seven of the party escaping. Another dispatch from TLord Roberts says: “Barton attacked the ubiquitous Dewet near Frederickstadt. The Boers were scattered in all directions.” SEEKS DIVORCE FOR Z THE PRINCESS ANHALT Mission of Prince Christian of Schles- wig-Holstein, Who Is Now at Berlin.

LSRR Ministers Unwilling to Accept the Word of the Chinese Govern- ment, but Wish to Witness Executions. el Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, WELLINGTON HO- TEL, WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—Further evidence of the desirability of referring the entire Chinese question to arbitration | has been given by the dissension which exists in Peking relative to the punish- | ment of the responsible authors of the Chinese outrages. Remembering the sufferings they under- went during the siege of the legations, some of the Ministers decline to be satis- | fled with the assurances of the Chinese { Government that certain persons haye been punished, but they want to see the | punishments executed or have a represen- | lative on hand to witness them. There is reason to belleve that the President and { Secretary Hay are not in sympathy with | the spirit of vimdictiveness that prevails and they are anxlous to get the punish- ment feature of'the negotiations out of the way as promptly as possible. Thougn the Chinese Government may cause ex- treme punishment to be visited upon a | great many persons guilty of foreign ou:- | rages, it is possible that a power like Ger- many, which suffered the indignity of having its official representative killed, ONDON, Oct. Z.—With the excep- | ther sacrifices. This is the very difficulty which the ad- vocates of arbitration believed could be easily and promptly disposed of by the international court of arbitration of The Hague. Such a body would be absolutely dispassionate. It would have no reason to desire revenge nor would it display par- tiality in the matter. It would make a fair investigation and would fix upon | those whom evidente showed to be re sible the guilt which they had com and would recommend such pun { ishments as would thoroughly fit thel crimes. Negotiations over the punishment | | of the guilty, which are now in progress, | may be indefivitely prolonged by the vin- | dictive spirit being displayed. | Secretary Hay is anxious, however, that | direct negotiations shall be thus employed in an attempt to bring about peace. There | is final recourse always to arbitration, but the Secretary belleves it is in the interest | of diplomacy that the Ministers and Chi- nese Peace Commissioners should first en- | deavor to reach a solution. ted in The Call this morning, Mr.4 !

Were it not for the delay that arbitration would cause due to the | investigation that would have to be Insti- | tuted there is no doubt that the adminis tration would urge this method of solu tion after a reasonable opportunity had | been given to effect a settlement by nego- | tiation. Minister Wu 1is satisfied that China would be glad to accept such a method of reaching a-settlement, but the | Chinese Commissioners cannot advance a proposition of this character. They must rather await its submission to them. Through Special Commissioner Rockhill, Secretary Hay received confirmation of | the sulcide of Yu Hsien, reported to the State Department vesterday by Minister Wu. Minister Conger has advised Secre tary Hay that he has been assured by tho | Chinese "Commissioners, who have hear: | from the imperial court, t there is no | intention to remove the viceroys of the | southern provinces. No positive assurances have been re- celved by Secretary Hay that the imperial court will return to Peking. The depart- ment has been informed on several recent occasions that the court would return, but this Information was subsequently de- nied. The department Is not certain of | the intentions of the court, but in well- informed diplomatic circles it is not be- lleved that the Emperor and Empress Dowager will return so long as the pow- ers retain such large forces in Peking. - URGING Ten Powers Represented in the Ne- gotiations at Peking. Spectal Cable to The Call and New York Her- ald. Copyright, 1300, by the Herald Pub- lishing Company. PEKING, Oct. 27.—Prince Ching and T4 Hung Chang have separately urged the Emperor to return to the capital, but no decision has yet been made. They insist also on severe punishment of the guilty Ministers. The Emperor asks for their names, which the foreign Ministers will furnish. Negotiations for a general preliminary convention will soon begin. Ten powers are now represented here. The Russian Minister and staff have returned, having failed to induce the other powers to aban- don the city, although the United States followed the Russian lead by reducing its garrigon, which in the view of some was already weak, and thereby, according to the sarue opinion, encouraged the Boxers in_the interior.

FOR TWEN TY YEARS Captain Blake Has Made a Daily Trip to Mt. Vernon. THE CAPTAIN TE ] Captain Blake of Steamer McAlester. Captain L. L. Blake of the steamer | McAlester, is one of the best known cap- tains on Chesapeake Bay. The steamer McAlester is the only boat that is al- lowed by Congress to stop at Mt. Ver- ton. For twenty years Captain Blake has been making a daily trip to Mt. Vernon. In a recent letter written from Wash- ington, D. C.. to The Peruna Medicine Co., Columbus, Ohio, he says: “l can cheerfully recom- mend your Peruna for rheumatism, and it is also remedy.”’ Captain L. L. Blake. Much that is called rheumatism is in reality myalgia. Myalgla is an affec- tion of the larger muscles, especiaily those In the small of the back, produc- ing pain, stiffness, cramp, and frequent- Iy _distress on the slightest movement. When the muscles of the small of the back are involved it is generally called lumbago. If the large muscles of the arms or legs are the seat of the affection it is generally then called muscular rheumatism. They are one and all the same affection, however. The month of October brings cool days and cooler nights. The daily perspira tion of the hot months is gradually and sometimes suddenly discontinued. ~This produces an acid condition of the blood which the kidneys are not alwa abl to correct. By stimulating the mucous membranes of the whole body the accu- mulations of acid in the blood can be drained away. This could be done with LLS SOME THINGS HE KNOWS OF PERUNA. At the -ggmnh of cool weather Peru- na should be taken to invigorate the mucous membranes against the labill ty of catarrh, and to stimulat them to carry away the effete gy matter dammed up in the system, which found its way out through the skin in hot weather. A bottle of Peruna taken in time is worth its weight in gold to any one duriag the month of October, ly to those who are liable to so-called muscular rheumatism.
