halted and asked what he wanted.He replied that be had come with the train to remove the killed and wounded.The Boers told him to make his request in writing, and Dr.Bristoecomplied.After waiting for two hours another Boer came and informed Dr.Bristoe that as Gen.Joubert was very far away noanswer to the request could be furnished until to-morrow morning.The Boer said that if Dr.Bristoe would then return with a white flag, he could count on a reply from Gen.Joubert.Dr.Bristoe inquired whether there were many wounded.The Boer replied that he had - heard that there were about seven.He declined to give any information regarding Lt.Winstor Churchill.It has rained all day and is still raîaing.London, Nov.16\u2014A despatch from Pietermaritaburg says a le ter has been received there from Th.Llwyd, Commissioner of Agriculture, dated Ladysmith, November 8th, asserting that ali was well; that the bombardment continued daily, but without damage, and that the residents oecupied canvase during the day time.A CRUSHING BOER DEFEAT.Estcourt, Natal, Nov.16\u201410 am.\u2014A missionary, a native, Lut a reliable man, who arrived here yesterday from Ladysmith, reports that à big fight tcok place there on Friday, November 10.He says the vo- Junteers went out in the early morning and drew the enemy from their position on to s flat, where the regalar troopa under Sir George White out-manœuvred them by outflanking the Boers, administering a crushing defeat an | inflicting great loss.Mo:e than 20) Kaffira, the missionary sayi.were employed by the Boers to bury their dead, and two trains, each drawn by two engines, carried away the wounded.JOUBERTS DEATII DISCREDITED.The rumor of the death of Gen, Joubert is discredited.It is understood that the War Office has news that he is still directing affairs.GENERAL LUCAS MEYER.1t is al:0 rumored from Pjeter.naritzburg, that the Boer losses at Ladysmith on Thursday were heavy and included Gen.Lucas Meyer, who was either killed or wounded.The report as to Gen, Joubert probably arose from the faet that his wife has left the comp at Ladysmith for the Free State.WILI, THE BQERS RETREAT?According to the Pietermaritzburg correspondent of the London Outlook, ram rs ate eurrent in th: Nal Capital that the Boers contemplate a retreat.It is needless, hiwever, to attach importance to such reporte, which are spread in ail probability with a view of luring Gen.White, if possible, to abandon his defensive attitude.Similar ramors are curreut regarding the Doers at Mafeking and are spread industriously by native spies.BOER CENSORSHIP.Special despatches from Lourenzo Marques say that the Transvaal Government is exercising a severe censorship over all war news and will not allow newapopers to leave the country.One correspondent says the Boers are hurrying new commandos to Lidysmith, aod are declaring that the place must fall spa:lily in order t) liberate their forces, so that these may go to meet Gan.Buller\u2019s advance.ARMOURED TRAIN MISFORTUNES.London, Nov.17\u20145 a.m\u2014Misfortune steadfastly pursues British empioyment of armoured trains, the fascination for which has given the Boers their first and Intest victories.On this last occasion the British seemed to have walked into a deliberate trap, with the result that according to the British accounts 90 men are either killed, wounded or missing, OF these the Fusiliers claim 30, and the Durban infantry 40.Tt is believed that à few escaped and that others are prisou- ers in the hands of the Boers.Macy of the wounded were brought back on the locomotive and tender of the armoured train.Capt.Holdare, of the Gordon Highlanders, was attached to the Fusiliers and other officers were with them.The list of casualties is awaited with great anxiety.In time of trouble Lieut.Winstor Churchill has proved himself mure a soldier than a correspondent, and his gallantry is high- 1y praised on all sides.RETURN OF THE TRAIN.the Government officials, the attitude of the people, who consider themselves SIX PAGES.London, Nov.17.\u20145 a.m.\u2014The latest despatches from Estcourt regarding the- armored train engagement say that the armored train engagement say that the train was capsized by an explosion, presumably of dypamite.The engine returned to Estcourt with two dead Fusiliers and the following wounded ing on : t.ie, three non- pr.oe ined oer cé and nine privates, all belomging to the Volunteers.ANOTHER BRUSH.Another Estcourt correspondent says à Boer conti of 300 men came south of Frere on Wednesday, and two companies of mounted troops, Imperigl Ligift-Horse and Natal Carbineers, ei a them eight miles from Estcourt.Boers occupied a strong positiom où à kopie.\u2018I'he Carbineers worked around on their right and drove the enemy back, whereupon the Imperial Light Horse opened a brisk fire at a medium range, killing seven.One map of the Imperial Light Horse was wounded.REINFORCEMENTS AT ESTCOURT The West Yorkshire Regiment (the Prince of Wales\u2019 Own), commanded by Colonel Kitchener, brother of Lord Kitchener of Khartoum, has arrived at Estcourt from Durban.The troops there sleep in their boots, the utmost vigilance is maintained and it is ru- moved that some important movement is imminent.DIVIDED OPINION.According to a special despatch from Lourenzo Marques, General Lucia Meyer has gone to ria for his bealtb.Moreover, a difference of opinion exists ai the commanders.The Boer Military Council wants the army moved elsewhere, but General Juubert insists that Ladysmith must fall first.The postal authorities at Durban open and inspect ali letters from Delalagos Bay.THE WAR UNPOPULAR.\u2018The Cape Town correspondent of the Standard says be has heard from an old resident, who has just left the Orange Free State, that the war is bound to England, is very half-hearted, that dissatisfaction and disobedience are spreading in the ranks of the Free State troops, and that the burghers would welcome any pretext to return to their homes.BLAKE WOUNDED.Durban, Nov.13.\u2014The Pretoria Volkstern announces that Blake, the American Colonel of the Jrish-Boer Brigade, and Vanden, the Commandant of the .Johannesburg Police, gave been \u2018wounded.A HEAVY BOMBARDMENT.Lourenzo Marqu@®, Delagoa Bay, Nov.18\u2014A local newspaper reports that Ladysmith was subjected to a very heavy bombardment all day Tuesday, and that at midnight ali the can- nou on the hills surrounding Lhe town opened fire simultaneously, poring in shells from ail points of te compase.Several buildings afire, the newspaper asserted, could be distinctly seen from the hills.A NOBLE FIGHT, Durban, Nov.16.\u2014 The Natal Merœury describing the engagement says : \u201cThe enemy apparenlly opened ire with a Maxim and two nine-pounders, gettimg ths range accurately.The fire was s) severe that L2lexraph wires and poles were destroyed.Their guns were posted on a kopje covered with brushwood and their sharp shooters were hidden behind boulders.The Dublins and volunteers fighting an unequal batile drove the enemy back, but the flerceness of the rifle and big gun fire was too much for the brave little party which was weakened at the outset by the overturning of trucks hurting several.Lieut.Churchill's bravery and coolness were magnificent.Fa couraged by him all worked like heroes in clearing the truck to enable the engine and tender to pass\u201d A BRAVE ACT.Later details show that a heavy rain and mist compelled a cessation of firing.Lieut.Churchill bravely carried the wounded to the tender under fire.While the Boers were destroying very unpopular there, that, apartifrom the train their scouts pushed in and exchanged shots with the British pic- kets 2 few miles from Estcourt.It appears that the Boers were in ambush.As soon as the train had passed up they emerged from cover and dislodged the sleeper bolts.WOUNDED AND MISSING.L London, Nov.16.\u2014Special despatches from Estcourt estimate the wounded and missing of the armored train contingent at from 100 to 150.The missing include Capt.Haldane.Jt is hoped that some escaped over the veldt and will return to Estcourt in a few days.THE ATTACK ON THE TRAIN.Estcourt, Natal, Nov.15.\u2014An armor ed train having on board a half company of Durban volunteers and a half company of Dublin Fusiliers, steamed to Chieveley early this morning.On its return it was shelled by the artil- Jery of the Boers placed in four positions.Two trucks in front of the engine left the rails and toppled over.While the train was thus helpless the Durhans and Dublin faced the Boers in skirmishing order and the Boers poured shot and shell into the crippled train.The detailed wagons were, with greab dilieulty, removed, and the line was cleared.\u2018The engine and tender steamed back.BRAVE MEN.During the juncture, Lieut.Winston Churchill, of the 4th Hussars, newspaper correspondent of the London Moring Post, and New York World, dis- nlaved much courage as also did the driver and fireman.It is feared the Publias and Durbans fared badly.A Red Cross party has gone out.Note\u2014The foregoing is the same affair to which the special despatch from Pietermaritzurg refers.THE TRACK TORE UP.Durban, Natal, Nov.16\u2014The Natal Advertiser has a despatch from Est court which says : part of the armored train was overturned by the Boers, tearing up the rails, the British alighted and exchanged volleys with the Boers.The enginc-driver, when the rails were replaced, seeing the situation was hopeless, steamed back to Estcourt with a few of the Dublins and fifteen of the Durbans, including Captain Wylie, who was wounded on the tender The fate of the remainder of the Durbans and Dublins, and Lieutenant Churchill is unknown.TWENTY - THREF MISSING.Exteourt, Nov.16.\u2014Seven of the Durbans have pist come in, making 23 missing.Only 15 of the Dublins have returned, GUN DISABLED.The naval seven-pounder, which was in

the Boer forces.The report needs confirmation, but many people believe it to be well founded, as the General's death is said to have ocrugied on November 8th, when the Boer riflemen were understood to he within 1,500 yards of Ladysmith, Severe fighting between (he British and the Boer forces the same day has since been reported and it is regarded in some quarters as quite passible that General Joubert, always noted for his personal courage and coolness, may have dangerously exposed himself in\u2019 a personal pocunnais- sance of the British positton.| Even General Joubert'y most bitter enemies admit that he rought squarely and fairly and his action when Gen.Symons died in expressing his sympathy elevated him to the high regard of ail soldiers.It is claimed that the death of Joubert would be likely to lead to the adoption by the Boers of bolder and more active tactics as he had considerable difficulty in restraining his hot-headed followesw.The driblets of news brings infor- matian that Ladysmith was still undergoing on Sunday bombardment from six forty pounders.The British naval guns were silent.The Boers therefore have got more heavy guns into position, while either the British ammunition has given out or the British gunners are simply reserving their fire in view of the poor practice made by the besiegers.- The reports that the Boers have penetrated southward from Cnlenso to Chicvuly, where they are said to have cut the railroad, shows that they are adopling a proper strategic plan to impede the advance of the British re living force.Perhaps ti ay turn ont be

spent the night at Southampton.They were housed at the Hamburg-American Cos expense, while awaiting the arrival of the Kaiser Friederich.Four of the passengers wero left at Dover and ove of these, à Man named Duplace, will prabably be dead before to-morraw as a result of his terrible experience in the English channel.Mr.Duplace has been for twenty years German Consul at San Juan de Porto

nurse the Consul, declining the opportunity ta continue her journey to Germany.Mr.Duplace was suffering from anemia, and the shock of the exposure aggravated the complaint to such an extent that the

permanent adjustment of the Alaskan boundary question.WW can be stated positively that there has bren absolutely no exchanges on this subject between the two Governments since the return to this country of British ambassador, Lord Pauncefote.The modus vivendi, which was adopted to define temporarily the respective rights of the parties, is working satisfactorily and there is said to be no reason just now for pressing forward towards a solution of the permanent boundary issue.The Federal administration has about convinced itself that there is little chance of securing the approval of the Senate to any permanent treaty defining the boundary line which at the same time would secure the adbersion of Canada and it is feared that even a moderate proposition looking towards a compromise

contract No.2, Moisic to Esquimaux Point.Jn the first section, Mail carriers are paid thirty to thirty-five dollars per trip.Jet us put it at the highest figure.First ond List Leip require only two men, S130 \u2018The four other Liips to carey all the wail matter would require an uo afr men for each Îrip, tol ' he carried ii - some indicious managed to get part of \u201c tail matter held over in Cobos Post Offiee Lil the opening of avigation and this is what 1x pro- reel do be done again this winter.That this is done to specially favor the party in question is evident as | FHK CHRONICLE, QUEBEC.FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1899.|A isa AA EE SIENS LS AS va r ye mir a \u2014 Bl a > AGE - 5-CENTS-5 SMOKING and CHEWING.Save the Coupons in the Packages.NO.22 31.my ofier to carry all the mail matter for the coast at the same figure and without any restriction whatever hay never been accepted.My tender is still in the hands of the Post Office Inspector, Quebce.\u2018The less mail carried the more dollars for the contractor aud to benefit one, thousands suffer.it is a down right shame and in any other part of Canada would not bz tolera However { will say no more for the present as I find I have taken more of your .valuable space than I had at first intended, but I may return to this subject again later on if névescary.! remain, Yours truly, NAP.A.COMEAU.\u2014\u2014 Mr.Robt.Crowe, of Truro, N.S., the well-known representative of the New Glasgow Milling Co., writes: \u201cKumfort Headache Powders work like a charm with me.I heartily recommend thesh to all sufferers from Headache\u2014_\u2014 THF POLICE CAST THEIR NET And Make a Large Haul \u2014 ers Gathered in, At a late hour on Wednesday evening Captain Pennee, accompanied by Detectives, Walsh _and Fleury, of the Cit;
