London, Jan 16 -The Earl of Rosebery, responding to a toast to nie health this evening st tbe annual banqoet of tbe Wolverbampton Chamber of Commerce, spoke of' tbe greet commercial warfare being wag ed against England." "The chief rivals to be feared,1' aaid bio Lordship, "are America and Germany. Tbe Americans, with their vast and almost incalculable reeooroee, their aoutettesaand enter ur-ee. and their hoge popolatioo, wnich will probably be 100,000,000 in twenty years, together with tbe plao they have adopted for potting accumulated wealth into great co? operation syndicates or trusts for the purpose of oarryiog oo this great commercial warfare, are, perhaps, the moat formidable. "On the other haod, tbe Germans, witb their calculating and oonqoer iag "pirit, and tbe energy witb which they seise and ose tbe best and most economical methods, are but little leee redoubtable than tbe Americans. ?'The Americans, scsroely satisfied with gigaotio individual fortunes, use these by combination to make of oapital a power which, wielded by one or two minds, ia almost irresisti ble ; aod if tbia power is concent rat ed against Oreat Britain io trade warfare it will he a danger we oan not afford to disregard. 4 A trust of many millions might compete with any trade io Englaud, underselling all her products at a considerable loaa This io a poaaible outcome of tbe immediate future. A curious feature, if I may say so without impertinence, seems to be that ia combination with tbe faculty for the acquisition of money there ia a complete contempt for money ex? cept aa a means of making more and for power Theae millionaires of whom wa bear ao much are often men of eimple livee, wboee simple rule is to make enormous accumula? tions io order to acqoire more power "England, in order to withstand international competition, most thor oogbly educate her yooth , and 1 wonld suggest sending batches of yooog men abroad to learn tbe best our rivals know " ? ? ?'

"Stop the War." British Find it Necessary to Extend Martial Law London, Jan 17 ?Tbe "atop the war" committee today passed the following resolution : "Orders wbicb a British officer reports he personally received reveal the adoption by Lord Roberts and Lord Kitchener of a policy having for its aim the extermination of a heroic nationality by starving ite women and children and tbe deliber? ate massacre of unarmed prisoners " The latter clause alludes to Gen Kitchener's alleged secret orders to Oen DeWet's pursuers to take no prisoners Copies of letters from an unarmed British officer containing these and other charges, will be sent by tbe committee to Lord Salisbury and Lord Roberts and others. LORD ROBERTS' APPEAL London, Jan 18 ?Lord Roberts, wbo was entertained privately at dinner last evening by tbe United Sen ice club, the guests including tbe Prince of Wales, the Duke of Yon, tbe Duke of Cambridge and soms 300 officers, has issued from the war office a stirring sppeal to the country for a prompt response to tbe osll for 5,000 yeomaory, whose past, service in South Africa be highly commends to the gratitude of tbe nati 30. Tbe autboritiee continuo to hold a hopuful view regarding tbe South African situation, but they seem to recognize that vigorous measures are neoessary Tbe proclsmation of martial law throughout almost the whole of Cape Oolooy. Lord Kitcb enei'e strong measures against tbe population of tbe republics, tbe placing on reduced ratiooe of tbe wives of the men in the field and similar measures go to show that there is still heavy work ahead British offensive operatione have ceased for the present It ia euppoaed that Lord Kitchener is collecting his strength for a fioal effort to crush or to capture tbe commandoe by a repetition of tbe taotics wbicb caused tbe surrender of Geos Cronje and Prinzloo It is alleged tbat tbe Boers, wbo are concentrating at Carolina and Ermele, are preparing to descend into Nstal. The casualty list issued yesterday shows that the Boers have released 297 Britieb wbo were oaptored at Helvetia aod Belfast The facts regaidfog the capture at Belfast have not yet been allowed to transpire It is aeeerted that more heavy naval guns will be landed at the Cape. Information as to tbe doings of tbe invaders is bard to obtain but it is clesr tbat tbey are getting very little help from the Dutch Twice tbey attempted to capture Bsrkiey Esst, but both times tbey were re poised For three doys tbey oocu pied Sutherland but tbey cleared out on tbe approach of a British column Smsll scattered parties are reported ss operating io various parts of tbe Geres district. Appsrently tbe invsdere abandon ed tbe idea of attacking Clan William on finding that tbe town was well defended A commando of 1,000 has been aotive in tbe Richmond die trim but there the Boers have eecor ed only 100 Dutch recruits Gen Kitebener telegraphing from Pretoria under date of Wednesday, Jsn 16, says tbe concentration of 3 000 Boers st Carolina, Transvaal, is reported. He adds that Colville's mobile column was engaged near Vantoodes Hoek Tbe Boers were driveu awaw -vith heavy loss Three hundred Boers entered Aber deen yesterday, looted the stores aod retired on tbe arrival of a hundred British infantry THIS IS REGONCENTRATION. Pretoria, Jan 16.?Boer families and their stook are bsiog systematically brought io to oonveoioot centres from a!i over the country Tbey are kept in oaojps end fed. Those who surrender voluntarily are supplied with full rations aod tboso whose husbands are still io the field are provided for on a ruduo?d scale, which is raised, when the husbands surrender, to a full allow* anoe Every opportunity is offered to tbo refugees to work for pay and for special privileges. Prominent burghers who havo surrendered are allowed to visit tho camps in order to ascertain the facts as to tbe treatment ATTACK BY THE HUERS. Sandertoo, Wednesday, Jan 16 ? Colville's mobile column, marohing (rom New Denmark to Vlaklaagte, was attaoked by 1,000 Boers, divided into two foroes. Ono foroo made a determine i attempt oo the baggago and the other on tho cavalry constituting the rasr guard. The cavalry wero compellod to retire until protected by four companies of nflus, bidden behind the ridge, who were watting with bayohots. The Beers then made a syredy retreat, leaving several dead and wounded from tli?> heavy British fire. Eventually both attacks were repuls ed. the Boers losing heavily. Tbo British wero Q ?t an o to rursuo ihe Boers owing tu tbo necessity of p oteoung their baggage. The casual* tieflwere oos killed and 15 wounded Hubbard'a Cotton Letter. New York, Jan. 17.?Liverpool surprised every one by declining on the publication of Neill's estimate, which be reiterates, of the crop Our market felt eure, from the starting out of Liverpool yesterday, that they would advance further and tbe strength at the olose last evening was due to tbe covering of a laige line of short cotton on tbat theory. Ouieide oporators, in view of the io creasing congestion of goods, are gradually selling out their holding?. In some few instances they sell short, though not generally. The comment tbst holds an advance of nearly 100 per cent as compared with two years ago is more frequently beard than tbe argument of supply On the other hand, we will soon run against the heavy movement of last February, which is a strong faotor for tbe maiutainance of present prices. The south showed little weakness, quotations beiug firmly held in the iuterior. Hubbard Bros. & Co. Site of tbe Naval Station Washington, January 17?In pursuance of Secretary Long's in struotions to proceed with the pur chase of the land recommended by the naval board as a site for the new Charleston naval station Admiral Endicott, chief of the bureau of yards and docks, has entered into correspondence with the owners of the land as a preliminary step to the actual acquirement of tbe site Ad miral Endicott will probably detail an officer shortly to proceed to Charleston to look after the business incident to the purohsse, but mean ? while the preliminary proceedings sre to be carried on by correspond enoe.

A Baby'* Birth is very much like the blossom? ing of a flower. Its beauty and perfection depends entirely upon tbe care bestowed upon its parent. Expectant mothers should have tbe tendtrest care. They should be spared all worry and anxiety. Tney should eat plenty of good nourishing food and take gentle exercises. This will go a long way toward preserv? ing their health and their beauty as well as that of the little one to come. But to be absolutely sure of a short and painless labor they should use Mother's Friend regularly during the raontha of gesta? tion. This ia a simple liniment, which is to be applied externally. It gives strength and vigor to the muse lea and prevents all of the discomforts of preg? nancy, which women used to think were absolutely neceaaarv.
