We approve the conduct of the senators and the fifteen Republican congressmen of Ohio who stood for Repub lican principles, favor the encouragement of the American merchant ma rine, the executive and legislative opposition to threatening combina tions of capital that seek to restrict ouioetition and stifle independent producers; ivites the largest employ ment ot laoor, out insists mai narm fui monopoly shall be prevented.''

Gen. Lonl Roberts Expects to Enmesh the lioers 111 His Latest I'lans. HIS 1UG FORCE READY Decisive Op rations Have Evidently Begun ami Advance Will 1'robablv Iroeeed. The Predicted Occupation of Pretoria Mill Far In the Distance and lioers Active. Accra, Gold C oast April 2.. A more hopeful view of the situation at Coouiussie now generally prevails. Loudon. April 5. An official list of British losses at Wepener from April 1 to April IN shows: Killed, three officers aud 18 men: wounded, It offi cers and S0 'men. Loudon, April 2."". The reports that the siege of Wepener had l-en pract ieally raised were apparently prema ture. TL? lier attack ujmui Col. Lialgety's northern ixtsitkm as described from Maseru, was probably a final attemtit to rush the garrison before securing a safe retreat, and as Col. Iialget.y successfully repulsed the attack, little further anxiety is felt on liis account. Iird Kolerts has now spread a net with some 4o,ooo or more nu n and l"o guns, covering the whole western semi-circle around Wepener. While lien. Hamilton has occupied the water works, practically without op position. The 7th division, under Gen. Tucker, assisted by naval guns, has made a demonstration from Karee Siding, the ISoers showing some opposition. At the same time a brigade moved out from ;ien to take up a position on a range of hills at (ieiinaadenale. north ot the Modder. The waterworks were found undamaged, with the exception of the removal of the sliding valves of thue pumping engines. The Boers now can only escape without risking an encounter, northward of Ladybrand, and the chance of a successful outcome of the plans of Ixrd Uoberts depends on whether the Hritish troops can reach Thalia N'Chu and La.lyhrand before the retreating commandoes from DeWets dorp and Wepener. All the corresiHindeuts report I hat the roads are in a terrible condition, which accounts for the slow progress of the Hritish columns aud. if the Iliers are as well Informed of the Iirltish plans as they hitherto have been, they an.' likely again to escape. It is now within three weeks of the date predicted for the occupation of Pretoria, and, although the present operations, as suggested in some quarters, may be the beginning of the main advance, it is not certain that they will not entail a further halt at Iiloemfoutein. KORKUTS IISIATCHES AlMut Wepener. London. April 23. -The war office issues the following from Lord Uoberts: Uloenifonteiu. April 24. vieuerals Brabant and Hart yesterday turned the position occupied by the enemy, who tried to prevent their moving northward, and got into heliograph communication with Col. Dalgetti, commandant of the besieged garrison at Wepener, who reported all well. Gen. Brabant has three wounded, one missing. Three were wounded on the previous day. The l?order regiment had seven wounded. At 11 p. m.. yesterday lira bant ami Hart were eight miles south of Wepener. The 11th division, under Gen. Pole-Carew and Geu. French's two brigades of cavalry reached Tweede Celuk yester day afternoon without having met serious opposition. Heliograph communication has teeu established with Geu. Uundle. A patrol of the 7th Dragoons, under Lieut. Jenkins, which was reiorted missing yesterday has rejoined Gen. French's camp with the exception of Conoral Taylor aud Pri vate Cook, who are believed to be wounded and prisoners. Mounted infantry yesterday under Gen. Ian Hamilton occupied the water works at Saunas I'ost. As the enemyare holding the neighboring hills in some strength, the !th division consisting of Gen. Smith-Dorriens and Gen. MacDonald's brigades, has been dispatched to supiHrt Hamilton. Gen. Maxwell's brigade, formerly (Jen. Chermsides. of the 7th division, "yesterday moved eastward and seized the hills covering the wagon bridge over the Modder river at Kranz Kraal, an important communication much used by the Koer during the last three weeks. Our only casualty was Private Brum. New South Wales Mounted Uiiies. taken prisoner. Ketuse to Take Cheer. London. April 25. The Mafeklng correspondent of The Times gives a gloomy account of the depression due to the probability of the siege lasting until the end of May. and says: "It is hard to accept Col. Uaden-1 owell's efforts to cheer the people by optimistic predictions, iu the absence of any sign of release." Sad Straits at 1 a .'eking. I.omlon. April -..". Lady Sarah Wilson, in a dispatch to The Daily Mail from Mafokiug. dated Sunday, April !. says: "Our bread is now made entirely of oats and is fall of husks. This causes much illness. There are many C.iscs of nerrous prostration and mal:iri:i3 typhoid aninn the irarrison. The news of the ehe-k to the relieving colninn is a terrible disappointment.

Operation on Great Scale. London. April 25 Winston Chnrchill wires from Walk erst room as follows: "Combined operations on a jrreat scale are now iu progress, and ili-n. Rundle's force is still containing the Boer position before I e wet's dorp. MISS BAltTO.N TALKS Itl Cross Oeceptlon- In the Trans vaal Severely Condemned. Washington, April 25. "If the reports be true, these men have practiced gross deception; broken a pledge and violated a confidence which they sought. The humane world will not hold them guiltless." This was the declaration of Miss Clara Barton respecting the reported action of the ambulance corps from Chicago in casting away their Ued Cross emblems as soon as they arived on the held of war in South Africa and taking up arms in the Boer cause. Miss Barton called upon Secretary of State Hay yesterday and explained her connection with this ambulance corps. She was accompanied by Ir. Uubltell. who is familiar with all the circumstances of the case. It appears from her statement that Miss Barton, as president of the American Bed Cross, was waited upon some time ago by Mr. Judd of Holyoke, Masn., who told of the intention of the Irish societies of Chicago to send out an ambulance corps to the Transvaal. It was pointed out to her that the British side in the war had received all the outside help, and she was asked to give the outgoing expedition credentials and the Ued Cross flag. After consideration Miss Barton gave Mr. Judd a letter of a general character, asking right-of-way and good treatment for the expedition, as long as the members lived up to the rules of the Geneva convention. Care was aken to include this imIoriant Mmiiation in the letter. Previously. Miss Barton had learned that each individual composing the party had made oath separately before a notary that he was going out to South Africa to work under the Ued Cross and in the ambulance service. To confirm this impression. Miss Barton was consulted, as was Ir. Hublx-ll. re speetiitg the character of supplies to be taken to South Africa, the uantlties ot" medicine and the number of stretchers necessary for the party. Tliere were attotir "hS men in the expedition when it left New York, a proper numtcr for an ambulance corps. But when this party was swelled at LislHn by about 1."o men who had preceded them, suspicion was aroused as to the true character of the men. There was still an indisposition on the part of the Ued Cross people iu this country to believe the tirst rej rts of the breach of faith on the part of thin expedition, but doubt on that point has leii removed by the receipt of Consul Hay's cablegram continuing the news dispatches. It is not felt that the Ued Cross of America has lH-n to blame in this matter or that it can be held responsible for the actions of a party organized as was this one, entirely oufsfde of the society's own .uppea red to le a laudable enter prise be dielmed. though it is improbable that any more expeditions of the kind will receive countenance.
