Lorenzo Marquez, Nov. 16.—The ‘local newspapers report

“that Ladysmith was subjected to very heavy bombardment all day

“Tuesday and that-at midnight all the cannon on the hills surround-

-ing the town opened fire similtaneously and poured shells from all points. Several buildings were set on fire and could be distinctly seen. The Standard & Diggers News of Johannesburg on Tues- day published official advices confirming the report that 3000 Boers were advancing on Estcourt.

Hon. Mr. Patterson, Dominion minister of customs, is in the city on an inspection of the service... He is much pleased with the appear- ance of the place. This afternoon Mayor Goodeve and J. S. C.--Fraser, president of the board of trade, paid an official call upon him. They pointed out the need for a firstclass federal building here, ~ where the customs, the postoffice and the excise departments could could be properly housed. With such an immense amount of drafts Estcourt, Thursday afternoon.—The Red Cross train ‘again and checks constantly in the mails returned without bringing in any dead or wounded.

Mr. Patterson was much struck with the needs ‘of the city and ¢ declared that he could see better than ever the justice of such a re- quest.

The public reception to be ten- dered W. A. Carlyle on the occasion of his departure for Spain will take place tonight at 8:30 o'clock in the city hall. Mr. Carlyle leaves to- morrow morning by tne Red Moun- tain railway for Spain. The de- monstration this evening will be an important one, and all id of the city are invited to be present. - Mayor Goodeve will preside and will open the meeting. The pleas- ant task of presenting the engrossed address has been entrusted to the

pable hands of W. J. Nelson. Mr. Carlyle is expected to reply and his remarks at the present time will be of great interest. In addition the program includes speeches by J. S.C. Fraser, ‘president of the board of trade, Hon. C. H. Mack- intosh, Hon. T. Mayne Daly, Hec-

London, Friday.—The rumor of the death of Joubert is dis-

dited. Itis d that the war office has news that he is

still directing affairs. It is also rumored from Pietermaritzburg

that the Boer losses at Ladysmith on Thursday were heavy and

_included General Lucas Meyer, wh> was either killed-or wounded.

The report as to Joubert probably arose from the’ fact that his wife has left the Boer camp at Ladysmith for the Free State. ~

NEW RAILROADS FOR CHINA

whose contract with the D government for the construction of the Yukon railway will be well re- membered, has returned to Canada from his recent trip to China. He went out to the Celestial empire in search of a ‘‘concession” or two, and toa reporter last evening he declared that he had been success- ful in his designs.

Speaking of Chinese railroads in general Mr. Mann said:

“The Imperial Chinese railway, owning about 330 miles, one line being from Tien-Tsin to Pekin, 75 miles in length, comprises the whole system except a little road of 12 miles connecting the bar or port with Shanghai. The last road has a curious history.

“Years ago, when it had been completed, the anti-railroad element gave a poor coolie $70 to allow himself to be run over by the hated foreign invention and killed, It should be said that he carried out his part of the strange contract to the fetter. The coolie gave most of the money to his family and with

gov t can do hi to lessen the feeling existing in all parts of Canada against the minister. of public works there will be no ap- peal to the country.

While the date of the meeting of the houses has not been definitely nor formally fixed, ministers have talked the matter over and have come to the conclusion that it shall not be later than Thursday, Jan- uary 2gth or February 1st. In reaching this decision they have been infil d by the repr tions of prominent supporters all over the country, who have become heartily tired of summer sessions.

Several contracts have been awarded for supplying Canadian hay for the use of the troops in South Africa. G. W. McCullough of this city is one of the successful tenderers. The major contract, it appears, goes to W. C. Blooming- dale of Boston, who has the option of shipping from that port if he can-* not conclude his purchases before the close of navigation on the St. Lawrence. A Montreal dispatch says there is much objection in that

a small balance proceeded to ‘paint the town red,’ and when this had been accomplished to his entire sat- isfaction he placed himself on the track and met death according to contract. This accident had the desired effect and the imperial au- thorities had the rails torn up and everything connected with the road in question was taken to the Island of Formoso and piled on the beach, where the debris remains to this
