The Social Democratic conference which began at Hanover today promises to be more Important than any party gathering since that held at Erfurt, where the present program was adopted. The questions of theoretical principles and tactics raised by Edward Bernstein In his book, published last March, will be thoroughly discussed if not finally settled.

27." IS NOT A BOER ULTIMATUM. Daily Mail's Correspondent Says Demand for Kemoval of Troops Is Not Strictly Correct. BT ASSOCIATED PRESS.l London, Oct. The Cape Town correspondent of the Daily Mail declares that tho story that a Boer ultimatum demanding the withdrawal of the British troops from the frontiers had been presented is without foundation, but he says the republics have within the last week demanded a declaration of the British intentions In threatening terms. Hostilities in the outlying districts, the correspondent says, are expected this week.

Mr. Hoffmeyr, the Afrikander leader in Cape Colony, said on Friday, according to tho correspondent of the Daily Mail, that but for him the Boers would have begun fighting long ago. The correspondent further says: "The financial position of the Free State is becoming acute and suspension of specie payments is expected scon. The Free State's national bank credit in Cape Town has been stopped. The Orange Raad, in secret session, passed a law empowering the President to use the revenues of the state and to borrow money to conduct the war.

The Cape Bank refused to honor paper from both republics and the Transvaal coin-ago has seriously depreciated, silver not being negotiable even in the Transvaal itself. The Pretoria mint is working day and night minting the gold stolen from the mail train, but Kruger gold has been tested since the mint was opened and therefore the coinage practically consists of expensive tokens." Charters More Transports. The steamers Auranla, Cephalonia, and Catalonia of the Cunard line have been engaged by the government as making six vessels of the Cunard company which have been taken by the government for that service.

Oct. 8. There was a terrible accident at the bullfight at Enghien, which took place today despite the protests of M. VI-rich, President of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, ami the threats of the Humane society people to take the matter into the courts. The bull fight was, nevertheless, given under government sanction and there was an immense audience present.

The blase men and women of the boulevards of Paris were out in full force to feel, if possible, the novelty of a shudder of pleasure at the cruelty of the display. Fate, however, Interfered to stop the horrible spectacle of the wanton disemboweling of helpless horses. Bull Cliarges the Fence. Almost at the start of the fight the most vicious bull made straight for the railing of the arena, which was insufficient to resist his assault and gave way. The bull charged at the helpless people and a wild panic ensued- Two Fatally Injured.

Men and women were trampling over each, other to avoid the charges of the bull. Twelve persons were hurt seriously, two mortally, and numbers of others slightly. The shrieks and cries of the women and the wounded aroused the neighboring gendarmerie, and soldiers and police rushed to the rescue. Bull Finally Captured. The commander had the place occupied in military fashion, while picadores, matadors, and gendarmerie pursued the bull with revolvers and carbines until they finally captured the enraged animal.

The prefect then isuued an order to suspend the fight -AND Jardinieres DEFY COMPETITION. America's Greatest Development In High Art BrioaBrac, Eosian Aurelian Louwelsa Dickens. Manila, Oct. 010:25 a. m.

The advance upon San Francisco de Malabon is continuing. General Schwan's advance guard entered Kosario this morning, meeting with slight resistance. Noveleta, Island of Luzon, Oct. 8, 3:15 p. m.

General Schwan's column, consisting of the Thirteenth Infantry, a battalion of the Fourteenth, two troops of cavalry. Captain Reilly's battery of the Fifth Artillery, and Lowe's scouts, advanced from Bacoor this morning and occupied Cavite Viejo and Noveleta. The American loss was three officers and nine privates wounded, one of the officers being mortally hurt. The loss of the enemy is unknown, but the bodies of three Filipinos were seen. There were two sharp fights near Noveleta.

Lowe's scouts first encountered the enemy near Cavite Viejo and soon put them to flight, continuing their advance. Captain Safford's battalion of the Thirteenth Regiment, with two companies of the Fourteenth and a number of Tagalo scouts. Captain McGrath commanding the troop3 from the Fourth Cavalry and Captain Reilly's battery, came upon the enemy in a strongly Intrenched position oirthe road between Cavite Viejo and Noveleta. A fight lasting half an hour followed, resulting in the enemy's being driven back. The American forces sustained considerable losses in this engagement, the men being shot from trenches and shacks along the road.

The column then pressed on to Noveleta, which they found deserted and will remain there tomight. Gunboats Land Marines. The marines and naval forces cooperated with the troops. The gunboats Wheeling, Petrel, and Callao lay off the shore near Noveleta and threw shells into that town and Santa Cruz for an hour, preparing the way for tho marines to land. Two battalions, consisting of 4o0 marines, under Colonel Elliott, advanced along the peninsula from Cavite to Noveleta.

The only way was by a narrow road through swamps. A mile beyond the marines' outpost the column was suddenly received with a volley from trenches across the road. A flank movement was executed and the insurgents were driven from the trenches. Wading1. Water Neck Deep.

The marines waded through more rice fields, forded the river in water to their shoulders, and carried tho forts, meeting with feeble resistance, the first encounter having disheartened the enemy. Squads were sent to Noveleta and burned the town and the huts all along the road from which the enemy commenced the firing. There a Junction was formed with the scouts who had been sweeping the swamps and thickets. Thence the marines returned to Cavite thoroughly exhausted. Fight Near San Nicolas.

The sporting event of the autumn was the Grand Prix, which this year was of international interest on account of the entry of the American horse. Sly Fox, ridden by Tod Sloan. The horse and jockey created a sensation before the race, in which, unfortunately, they did not even win a place. The English were betting on Sloan and argued that the Jockey added a good many pounds of value to the horse.

Salisbury and Mr. Balfour were issuing the necessary orders THE- cised Marx and the entire system as severely as any university professor, and demanded a transformation of the party into a social reform organization. The Socialist press was filled for weeks with articles from Bernstein. His chief opponent, Carl Kautsky, TVil-helm Liebknecht, and others at first showed a tendency to read Bernstein out of th party, but the unwisdom of this course was soon recognized, particularly as it became apparent that Bernstein was being supported not only by the Bavarian Socialists under Vollmar but by the respectable element in the north of Germany. Socialists Tired of Waiting.

Thealllances between the Bavarian Badish and Wurtemberg Socialists and the Catholics in the recent and pending elections prove that the southern Socialists are tired of waiting for a sort of political judgment day and want to have a hand in the government now wherever it is possible. The Hanover conference cannot prevent alliances in individual States, but will discuss the policy as a general proposition and probably take some position toward Miller-and's acceptance of a portfolio in the French Cabinet.

Effect of the Creusot Decision. The final decision of Premier AValdeck-Rousseau in the Creusot strike is a chef d'ceuvre of clearness and justice, and, from a socialistic point of view, the greatest victory laboring men have won in twenty years. The Premier's enemies declare that the document signed by Waldeck-Rousseau is the first page of his confession to conversion to socialism. Gives "Workmen More Power. The workmen have won effectively all along the line, and the decision is to have a far-reaching effect on the relations of the capitalists to labor.

The latter in the future can dictate, or at least regulate, the employment In divers branches of industry. There Is great rejoicing among the strikers at Creusot. The leaders are urging them to remain calm and to reward the Cabinet for jhe victory )j jjooa behavior. Schneider must pay the Increase of wages promised; keep the strike agitators In his employ, and allow three men. to be elected, to survey the workrooms.

Avoids Several Hard Points. While cleverly avoiding any discussion over the recognition of the syndicate by Schneider, by declaring the law of 1884 sufficient to ratify its existence, Waldeek-Kousseau said the government would ask tlse Chamber to vote a law regulating the relations anl functions of syndicates on points at Issue between capitallstsand labor-. The Premier also clecide-d in favor of liberty of conscience by prohibiting' the abuse by the master of his workmen. Grosjean victim of Gossips. The restoration to freedom of Orosjean, tfee removal of the seals from his apartments, and the recall of warrant for the arrest of Roget and Quesnay de Beaurepaire prove Berenger to be the victim of a woman's gossiping tongue.

The woman when brought face to face with Grosjean admitted that she was given to exaggeration. The woman invented the dinner of February the 22d at Grosjean's house and enlisted the sympathy of Melcot, who, in turn, secured Bertol and Graivil, and the new was invented and published in the Etoile. Among other proofs against Grosjean brought into the High Court was a confectioner's receipt for another dinner when lie had supplied the pastry. Saved by Pastry Cook. Had he had the other dinner, Grosjean argued, he would have had the other pastry bill, and in this way he proved beyond doubt that the Etoile story was the fabrication of a gossiping woman.

Under the circumstances it was an extraordinary spectacle to see a French magistrate trying to prove his innocence of conspiracy against the republic by means of a pastry bill. Grosjean also asserted Judge Bertulus' ieter is mixed up in the affair, and Bertulus is his natural enemy. As for Melcot, he says, Mme. Mercier had refused to receive Mme. Melcot on her re-option days and consequently Mme.

PRINCE GEORGE NOT TO WED. a. force of men Is busily engaged In completing the improvements at "Westminster. The most important news from south Africa, comes from Mafeking. where twice on Saturday the British camp was aroused, the men stood to their arms, guns were limbered, arid patrols were dispatched in the direction of the border.

hostilities have occurred yet, but the enemy has moved practically to the border, eight miles from Mafeking, in force estimated at least 0,000, comprising five commandoes. The garrisoning and fortifying of the town are practically completed. The streets are barricaded, and a perfect system of mines has been laid. Two armored trains have arrived at Mafe- consisting of three bulletproof cars, the first of which carries a searchlight, while the sides of the other cars are loopholed. Each train is complete in itself, and carries its own provisions.

Experiments with lyddite in the mines prove that It is an ex- tremcly powerful explosive. Boers Hot to Attack. Colonel Robert Stevenson Smyth Baden-Powell, commanding the Fifth Dragoon Guards, has issued a notice that the Boers who are massed on the Natal and Bechu-analand frontiers have orders not to fire until the British begin, and that the town is well prepared for eventualities, but, as the Boers may shell the place, every endeavor should be made to safeguard the women and children. An armored train was inspected at Kim-berley Saturday. A signal station has been erected, with a conning tower at the top, 150 feet above the tracks.

Communication by telephone is had with a central office, and signals are given to the troops by flag. By this means maneuvers were successfully conducted Saturday. The troops number 3,000. including the bicycle corps. A train was also successfully tested at Mafeking.

It patrolled to the north and practiced firing at targets. Boer Camp Near Kimberley. A dispatch from Kimberley to the Cape Atgus says that 3,000 Boers are encamped midway between Boshof and Kimberley. Tliey are well armed and great religious fervor Is shown in the camp. The Boers, however, are chafing under the delay.

They patrol the border nightly and have been ordered not to permit a British uniform to approach the frontier. A special order was gazetted on Saturday announcing what British residents would be allowed to remain in the Transvaal and under what conditions. Bombay, Oct. 8.

-THE GiRL WITH THE AUBURN HAIR" 9th week. 'William IV Indom Famous Blacltstone Stars together with a few pretty women, but not many. The band had played the Toreador air In "Carmen," the matatiorcs, like great tropical insects, in pink, green, and gold, had flitted over the arena trailing their purple mantles in front of an excited bull, the picador had tried his first thrust, when suddenly the bull made a wild rush for an exit Just beneath where the President was sitting, leaped clear over both barriers separating the arena from the public, and scrambled over the backs of half a dozen spectators. Continuing his mad rush, he trampled a blue bloused peasant lifeless, broke the legs of two elegantly dressed Parisiennes, crumbled up a moving picture man and his apparatus into a confused mass, passed through the partition of the wooden stand as if it had been so much cardboard, and like a flash disappeared. Outside the arena the bull played havoo with the motor cars and bicycles ranged in a neighboring field, and after breaking both forelegs over a wire fence and tossing an old peasant woman, fell to the ground in a vegetable garden and was there dispatched by a gendarme.

The corrida was then brought to a close; gendarmes invaded the arena and bundled out the protesting matadores, while the public stamped and shouted for more bulls. But the stamping made the rickety stands shake so dangerously that at last the people thought it wiser to go away. The management must have cleared about but it is not probable that there will be any more Spanish bull fights near Pari3 in the immediate future. ts 1 i l. port.
