THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
-GIBSON
Proprietor.
Has Commeoced at Ldymlth-
Forccs Stroetf.
Ladysmith Oct. 30 The bat
tle of Ladysmith has begun. The
Boers opened with artillery fire on
the British camp. After seven
shots were fired the British silenced
the Boer guns. The Boers are ad
vancing on the British left flank.
The loss of Ladysmith would mean
the loss of all northern Natal to
the British. For days the Boers
have been drawing nearer the town
from the northeast and the west.
To the northward the plain is black
with Boers. The battle will evi
dently be a hard one.
The English defending force is
12000 and the Boer investing
force is estimated to be 17000
The English are provided with
better and more artillery than the
Boers with the exception that the
Boers have a few long range gnns
which carry further than any pos
sessed by the English.
The British hope for heavy re
inforcements within a week and
will use every endeavor to hold ont
until that time.
The Boers however know that
reinforcements will soon arrive and
will therefore endeavor to deal a
crushing blow before they arrive.
CASUALTIES IN RHODESIA.
Tulie Oct. 30. The British cas-
ualties iu the encounters at Rhodes
Drift include Captain Blackburn
and two troopers killed and five
missing. The Boers lost twelve
killed.
A DUTCH STORT.
Berlin Oct.- 30. A report is
printed here emanating from
Dutch sources that the English at
Ladysmith have surrendered to the
Boers. The report is not credited.
TWO REGIMENTS MISSING.
London Oct. 30. The wording
of the official account of to-day's
operations at Ladysmith is causing
much anxious comment to-night in
the service clubs.
It is believed the operations
were not successful.
The official "hope that the guns
of the mountain battery may be re-
covered" is thought to rest on a
slender foundation and the anxiety
will not be allayed until the safe
return of the Irish fusileers and the
Gloucestershire regiment which
have disappeared.
It is announced that the regi-
ments went out at 11 p. m. on
Sunday and had not got back at 4
p. m. to-day.
The newspaper dispatches are
being strictly censored and it is
geuerally believed that important
facts are being concealed.

Likes Honolulu.
A letter has been received from
Perry T. Rummage one of the
soldiers boys from Claremore who
is now with his regiment on the
way to the Philippines. The let-
ter was written at Honolulu
Hawaiian Islands oh September
10th. It says in part: "We are
at Honolulu three transports
Sherman Chas. Nelson and Grant
with the Thirty-second and Thirty-
third regiments.
Think we will start in a day or
two for Manila as soon as our
ships are coaled. The natives
coal them by hand and the 'work
is slow.
Honolulu is a fine town. I have
been in St. Louis Kansas City
and Leavenworth Kan. but they
are nothing to compare with it.
The Queen's palace is the finest
building here although many oth-
er public buildings and stores are
magnificent structures. The Stars
and Stripes float oyer all of them.
I had the pleasure today for the
first time of climbing an orange
tree and eating oranges from the
live branches. Bananas cocoa-
nuts dates figs and other fruits
are plentiful here.
This is a wonderful business
place. There are 300 ships in the
harbor waiting to be loaded with
products for the foreign markets.
The other Territory boys are
well and as I write this letter are
enjoying a salt water bath on the
beach. Will write again when we
reach Manila. Claremore Prp-
gress. Commencing Oct. 27 the Santa Fe
will ran through vestibuled sleepers
and chair cars to San Antonio Tex.

SAMOAN NEGOTIATIONS.
. New York Oct. 30. A special
to the Herald from Washington
says:
Some progress is being made in
the negotiations between the three
governments signatory to the Ber-
lin treaty looking to the settlement
of Samoan claims. The character
of the settlement cannot be stated
at this time but it can be said with
authority that the president has
no intention of agreeing to any
proposition whereby the United
States will contribute an equal
share with Germany and Great
Britian to satisfy the claims.
ONE DEAD.
Manila Oct. 30. The trans-
port Glenogle with 26 officers and
