There Is sttH BO nnthonl.lc news from Mafeklng, but all reports tenrl to confirm the belief that Colonel P.adon-t'owcll Is holding his own, nnd no credit la given to the VIIRIIC rumor (Imt flng of trtico had displayed.

Tho country la not favorable for Iloor tucttca, nnrt it will be very difficult for them to avoid the exposure of their (InnltH to attack by a vigorous nnd mobile enemy already occupying useful positions. That la, supposing they reiilly moan to fight nnd not merely to attempt to draw General White farther out with a view of suroundlng him.

Ge7ieral White has a largo body of excellent cavalry, which be put to good uro. The Daily Telegraph's correspondent nt fjiidysinlth says no newspaper representatives are allowed to proceed I'rom there either to Bostera Station or Acton Ilomr-a, and adds that General Joubert's forces are moving against Glencoo and Hesters Station on the Harrysmlth-Lynch line. According to the same authority sonic volunteers, who had just come into Uulvsmith from Besters Station and Acton Homes before the dispatch wus sent, reported that 300 Boers tried ineffectually to cut off small parties of British troops, but the Natal men were too wary to bo caught, and retired firing. The enemy, as usual, hid themselves behind piles of rocks and In gullies, but were unable to advance. They used cannon against the British riflemen, who, nevertheless, maintained a stout resistance.

Tho liring was very heavy. The country about Acton Homes being more open, tho British mounted volunteers there are retiring upon Dewdrop. Two thousand Boers were engaged at Acton Homes and rather fewer at Besters It is reported that the enemy there is hemmed in and suffering so- veruly. The Daily Telegraph, commenting on tho foregoing- from its correspondent, (jays it is difficult to understand the references to Glencoe and Besters Station, except on the theory that Commandant General Jouhert is dividing his forces. The Times' Lobatsl correspondent, telegraphing under date of Oct.

18, says: The Doers were around us all day yesterday and brought up the line in several places between Pltsani and MafekiiiK. were attacked and defeated by a party of our men from Mafekliig. Thirty Boers were killed during tho night. Another lot broke up thu line a milo north of Lobatsi, cutting tho wires. The station master and nil of us hero set to work and have just restored communication.

Tho Cupo Town correspondent of The Times, under date of Tuesday, says: All is well at Kimberley, though communication is almost entirely cut. There is no means of learning anything that happens north of tho Orango river unless perhaps by way of Rhodesia and Beira. The Daily News' Ladysmith correspondent, telegraphing on Tuesday, says he learns that the discontent In Swaziland Is taking a form hostile to the Boers, who. quitted Bremersdorf precipitately. According to this correspondent the Boors dread Swnzl rising nnd most of the Dutch settlers in that country nre preparing to leave, having already sent their wives and families Into tho Transvaal, An official note published at Ladysmith says: A Free State commando on Tuesday commenced actual hostilities.

The Free State has thus taken upon itself tho responsibility of beginning war and cannot hereafter posa us tho injured party, The British forces came Into contact with the enemy in the nighborhood of Acton Homes and Beaters Station, about 16 miles out. Tho foregoing about exhausts tho actual war news this morning, The worst features of the situation are re- gordeil to bo the probability of native risings, which, whether ou behalf of or against the Boers, are certain to produce serious complications, besides danger to the few hundred whites in these districts, The havoc the Boors are making with tho railway and telegraph lines will seriously Impede the movements of General Sir ftodvers's Puller's army corps. There are conflicting reports as to whether the Boors have or have not occupied Helpmukoar. According to the best ucouuts the rumor that they have done so Is untrue, but If the Boers have succeeded In this niQnoeu- ver they are completely around the right Sir George Stewart White's position, and will be able either to attack him at an udvuntuge or to move down into Natal behind Jilro. The Daily News points this out and seems to think that If the Boers loop thoir way through territory or liustuolurd the natives ought to be permitted to exact respect for theirowu territory.

THE STUDENTS' CELEBRATION Thousand ttiulomrnilimton nlMntoMlriiltn In it t'ltrmlo In Wtnt'li Mint.v Orlirlnnl ntnl NovtV Arc New Haven, Oct. Arthur Twining Hartley, the first layman chosen president of Ynlo during Its two centuries of colleglatn life, wns yesterday nftornoon Inducted into ofHcc. His Inauguration took place In the presence of the moat representative body 1 American educators and university men gathered since the Inauguration of President Kllot, of Harvard.

The guests Included the moat cosmopolltai assembly which, perhaps, over mot at an American Inauguration. Pour distinct groups marched separately In the stately parade to Mattel! Chapel, met at its floors and filled It to overflowing Business men, members of city, state nnd national government, college alumni and under graduates, with the official representatives of other universities, completed the list. President lladlcy really took his seat as Yale's chief executive on commencement day last June. He has since directed the affairs of the Institution and had laid, in general, the plans for his own inauguration. At his wish the Latin oration, pronounced at every previous Inauguration, was omitted not a conventional classic phrase was uttered, but a grand chorus ot 100 voices of Yale under graduates, accompanied by a symphony orchestra of 50 pieces, was introduced into the inauguration program.

Simplicity marked the exercises from beginning to close. The march to tha chupel, the chorus, the simple words of ARTHUR TWINING HADLBY. Rev. Dr. Joseph Twicliell, admin taring the inauguration oath, the congratulatory address ot welcome by Professor George P.

Fishor, dean of the divinity school, the prayer and benediction by Dr. Timothy Dwight the retiring president, and the reception of the now president in the ari school filled out the program. Three thousand Yale under graduates and receiit graduates united last night in a parade in honor of President Hadley. The hit of the procession was the train of the "Hadley Transportation company." It consisted of a locomotive and threo cars, each of the latter 1(i I'oet long and seven feet high, lighted from within with lanterns. The locomotive moved on wheels, and was fitted with a boiler, which emitted steam at every stop, and continuously rang a clanging bell as a warning of its approach.

The baggage car contained an excellent likeness ot Senator Channeoy M. Depew lu the act of throwing out a trunk marked T. Yale." The baggage car and each of the two passenger coaches wore carried by two of he college "sweeps." The whole train formed a tableau 90 foot long. The locomotive burned cotton waste and waa equipped with a headlight. The windows of the passenger coaches contained excellent portraits of prominent professors and graduates.

With the cars were 20 seniors carrying regulation railroad lanterns and dressed In gnrli of brakemen. Considering fact that much of President Hadley's reputation as an economist is Jaeed on his work on railroad transportation, the railroad tableau was especially appropriate. What pleased the visitors roost, and also the graduates of long standing, the transparency carried by the divinity school students. It was a faithful representation of the old Say- n'ook meeting house, where the 11 ministers met who founded Yale college nearly 200 years ago. The scientific students carried as a symbol of their study a huge blast furnace of sheet iron and cardboard, minted a dull red to represent the lery heat that at every stop sent lunios bljjh into the air, The furnace was 16 feet high.

The art students a number of transparencies illustrative of their study. The campus was brilliantly illuminated, each room In the quadrangle ng lighted, Hundreds of Chinese ian- iiung in featoous and fancy designs around the campus and in the wchways of the several halls. Great quantities of red Are blazed. Every man in the procession led a flaming torch, Each man also was garbed in academic gown and mor- board of regulation cut, hut of (JJs- inguishlng hues, Transparencies lu plenty were at the distance of every few feet, jnost of them being humorous.

In tho course or his nddirsa ho said: "We arc face lo fnco with moral responsibilities In HIM far but, they carry with them material opportunities In commomi and trade from tho Philippines and Slam on the south of and Siberia on tho north Hint few people In America, appreciate.

Our ability to protect our nnd growing markets in China dnpemlH largely on tho result of our Philippine policy. If we fail at Manila wo may fail at Peking. If wo are not strong at Manila we shall weaken at Toklo, Peking, Seoul and Bangkok.

When Ucwoy aail- ed into Manila bay and destroyed tho Spanish (loot ho made America unquestionably the permanent power of the Pacific. But we arc now on trial. Wo cannot maintain that position except by an early anil sueconsfiil solution oC the Philippine problem." Tile Chinese minister, Wu Ting Fang, delivered nn Intorosllng ail- dress, in the course of which he Miild: "1 take this opportunity to nay, by way of general answer to tho pro- ceding speakers who have referred to tho open door In my country, that China always favors the open door. China opeiiH her doors to tho peoples and tho trade of every country, without distinction as to race or color." When Minister VVu Ting Fang concluded his arldrcHs tho delegates applauded him tor several minutes. The minister gracloUHly acknowledged the tribute by risine; and bowing.

At tho conclusion of Minister Wa Ting Fang's address Mr. Foord. of Now York, secretary of the American Asiatic nsnociatkm, presented a roKolution citing In its preamble that, the exports ot American manufactures lo China are growing in vnlno and in volume with a rapidity unexampled in any other market; that no other nmrkct In tho world offers sucli vast and varied opportunities for tho further increase of American exports; that these opportunities aro absolutely dependent on the maintenance of ccjuallly of commercial privilege, which treaties made with the United Slates secure throughout the whole of tho Chinese empire, and that certain foreign powers HROIH to show a disposition to, restrict that market to the advantage of their own citizens and tho exclusion of others by the creation of spheres of influence, and that It is lOBolvod as the judgment of the representatives of American industry and commerce engaged in Ilio China trade, here assembled as delegates to tho international commercial congress, that an emphatic duelaraliou lia made by the government of tho United States of its intention to protect to its fullest, extent, the rights which its: citizens enjoy under exiting treaties to pursue fliolr trade in the Chlnosu empire. Tho resolution was unanimously adopted. Colonel Boll, United States consul at Sidney, N.

S. in a brief address said thai wo must keep open tho doors for China If wo can oxpuct China to keep open doors for ns. That is tho only right way. The Chinese minister, rising to a point of privilege, spoke as follows: "1 wish to answer one of tho speakers here who made tho remark, 'It is very lino to say that it la not just to exclude the Chinese from America, but China has inhabitants, and if tho exclusion law Is repealed will not those come to I "I am very glad the ciuostlou was asked, so on to give mo tho opportunity of answering, Tho Chinese that' come hero come only from two provinces in Canton, You never see a northern Chinaman hero. No men from Shanghai, Cor instance, except in the diplomatic corps.

"These two provinces have only a population of about a million, so that oven should all come, which is manifestly absurd, it would not bo very Borlous. Tho total number of China- men in America now Is about 100,000. Why did those people come? Thirty yours ago, when you were constructing your western railroads, you sent agents to China and bogged tho laborers to come here. Of course others followed thoir example later, Hut had you not done this I do not boliovo thoro would have beou any Chinese laborers hero today, "These men do not rob you. They work day and night and make faithful servants, I admit that they want to make few dollars and go home, but is not that just what you Americans who come to China want? 1 bellava that to get this trade of China it Ii worth while to repeal this objectionable statute." lf AllowM Time, New York, Oct.
