LONDON, November 26th

As a result of the attitude taken up by the Daily Chronicle, the Editor, it is alleged, has resigned.

(The wording of this telegram is not very clear, but the above would appear to be the case. As our readers are aware, the Daily Chronicle has strongly opposed the war, and apparently was the journal that charged Sir Allred Milner with having stated that it was his function to destroy the Afrikander power in South Africa.

According to the report in the Japan Her ald, one of the Japanese employés was attend- ing to a centrifugal, waterextincior, in which the clothes are placed in order that the water may be wrung from them, and in attempting foolishly enough, to adjust one of the articles of clothing, he thoughtlessly thrust his right arm into the receptacle, when it was instantly torn from its socket, leaving only about an inch of bone protruding from the shoulder.

RITTI

ITEMS OF NEWS. FROM HOME- PAPERS:

U.S. President Asked to Intorfore, A deputation waited on the United States. President asking him to tender his services as mediator beteen Great Britain and the Trans.: vaal. The deputation represented senators, congressmen, college presidents, justices, and hundreds. of distinguished American citizens and was approved of by the Presidents of the Transvaal and Orange Free States, and by the Premier of Cape Colony. The Petitioners laid stress on the fact that they were not. friends of the Boers but only wanted peace on account of their great abhorence of war. The petition, bowever, was refused as the President, though sympathising with its object, could not see how he could interiere unless first approached by The President, it is reported, has also been asked by Russia, France and Spain to interfere.

Great Britain.

•

After the War. The Continental papers are already consider. ing what their Governments should do after the war is over, and almost unanimously are n opinion that they should demand compensation, should Britain decide to annex any furthur territory,

It is pleasant to find that our neighbours are so assured that our arms will be victorious, but we hardly believe their non-interference has been caused by any good will towards us.

Sound Advice to Belgium.

A Belgian resident in England has written to Antwerp papers cautioning them against their animosity against Great Britain and reminds them that Belgiuin owes her independence to the power she is now reviling.

Sufferings at Sea.

Last August (mid-winter in the Southern hemisphere) while the steamship Teton was on her passage from Wellington N. Z. to London, she struckc a reef off the Straits of Le Maire, but was able to back off, not without, however, having sprung a leak, and as she was making water fast, the Captain decided to abandon the ship. One boat was Jaunched, manned by five men, and was taken in tow. The Captain then changed his mind and refused to launch the other boats, still keeping the one in the water in tow. The weather became dirty and the heavy rolling of the ship necessitated his having to cut the boat adrift. Next morning the boat's crew found themselves deserted, the food consisting of ship's biscuits spoilt by the sea water and the fresh water frozen. They remained in this terrible state for several days, eventually being picked up by the Gifford all very much exhausted. The Tekoa it has since been ascertained, succeeded in making Port Stanley,

THE WAR AND THE GOLD SUPPLY.

"The effect of war in South Africa upon the world's supply of gold is not likely to be seri. ously felt outside of England, if it is felt there The Transvaal has become one of the great gold-producing districts of the world, but the yield of other districts has so rapidly grown in. recent years that the whole Transvaal product could be eliminated without reducing the net gold product per year within the limits of a few years ago. The official figures of the Mim Bureau put the total production of gold in the

world.

in 1897 at $237,504,800 and in 1898 at about $287,000,000. The share of the whole of Africa, mostly Transvaal gold, in 1897,5was $58,306,600, and in 1898 about $80,000,000. The production of the Transvaal district for 1899, down to the close of August, was 3,502,048 compared with 2,697,917 ounces for

ABANDONING, CAPTURED PHILIP-

PINE TOWNS.

The announcement from Washington that the Government has abolished the Philippine censorship gives added. interest to a letter published by the Chicago Record from John T. McCutcheon, its Philippine correspondent, telling what news General Otis has been sup pressing. The most interesting feature of the letter contains news whose publication cannot well aid the natives, because it is the very news that they know best he capture and abandon ment of Philippine towns. Those who consider this policy of abandonment a grievous mistake will be glad to note the announcement that in the present forward movement in Luzon all cap tured towns will be garrisoned and held. "The following partial list," says Mr. McCutcheon. "will show what our troops have done, and will reveal whai a world of unnecessary work they have had to do"

yield for the last four months of the year will be entirely lost in case of war, except so far as September and early October have already afforded a consider able product which has been laid down for *export. If the war is limited to the present calendar year, its effect upon the gold supply will be simply to wipe out a little more than the -normal increase in the Transvaal over last year. If the entire product of the district should be lott for the whole of the year goo (which is not very probable) and other districts should remain stationary in production, the product of the year throughout the world would be about dog The Boer retaliated by charging the ladying "I have found Scott's Emulsion of great $260,000,000 There is no occasion to fear a with destroying his pipe.
