A tele gram from Ladysmlth, Natal, says that the Orange Free Stats troops have occupied and closed Bothas pass, on the Free State border, and that Com mandant AUrlche, chief of the Free State artillery, Is proceeding In the di rection of Klmberley with a consider able force of artillery.

The latest news received from Jo hannesburg Indicates that the last rush of Europeans to leave (he town has occurred. They crowded the trains like sardines, occupying every possible Inch on the trucks. There is consider' able anxiety with regard to the few Who remain behind, as communication seems to be cut off.

The British steamer Lalpoora, now in the transport service, arrived at Durban, Natal, with field artillery, a hospital corps and commissary stores from India. The troops were promptly disembarked and sent by train up the country. The Natal authorities have en nounced that no more mall will oe dispatched to the Transvaal until further notice.

Montagus White, consul general tot the South African republic, tele graphed President Kruger, urging him to make a personal appeal to Lord Gallsbury, dwelling upon the iniquity of the war, and proposing a scheme as basis of further negotiations. He said he was momentarily eipeotlng to tear that the Transvaal government was sending an ultimatum to Great Britain, declaring the dispatch of troops a casus belli, In which event he would be compelled to close his offices.

Tbe Terrible Meanee of Democratic Vic tory "Support of Jadge Mash Is Based Epoa My Daelre to Sao Present Pros parous Tlmee Coatlnoe. Ex-Governor Charles Foster, one ot the war horses ot the Republican party In Ohio has been living quietly at bis home In Fostorla for some time. The McLeanltes, in their desperate efforts to manufacture disaffection to Judge Nash within his own party, have circu lated stories to the effect that ex-Governor Foster Intended to bolt the Re publican ticket The lie was so ab surd that no one took the trouble to contradict It Mr. Foster's personal friendB, however, have been Indignant because of the McLean lies, and have so expressed themselves. Last week Mr. Foster was In Columbus, and said in an interview: "I have desired to make a statement for some time, and perhaps today is the best time for it "I desired the nomination of Judge Nash on personal grounds, but also on higher grounds. I believed that through him the factional differences of the Republican party in Ohio will be greatly modified. I know the man, and I feel free to make the statement that, as governor of Ohio, he will know no faction In the distribution of patronage. ' All will be treated consid erately and properly. Judge Nash as governor will not be controlled by any man or by any faction. He will be a Republican all the time, as he always has been. "My support of Judge Nash Is also based upon my desire to see the pres ent prosperous times continue. "A Democratic victory in Ohio this fall with the principles of the Zanes ville convention written on the banner of the Democracy, would lead to the same disastrous results which followed the national election of 1892. Tie eyes of the nation are turned to Ohio. A Democratic victory In Ohio this fall would be a repudiation of President McKlnley's policy and a national dis aster. "While capital stands ready at this time to Invest In any promising enter prise, the moment that it becomes known that the state of Ohio has failed to endorse the president capital will be alarmed. "A Democratic victory this fall would tie up the business of the country im mediately, and capital will lis in hid ing until after the election of 1900, and perhaps longer, Just as surely as It did in 1S95 and 1896. Thousands of ester prises that would be undertaken with Judge Tvash as governor will be aban doned In the event ot a Democratlo victory." Utah Tragedy. Salt Lake, Oct 4. F. J.
