PLANS OF RELIEF. GREAT SPEECH OPERATON. $50,000 j . . . - r I MR. KLUTTZ'S REPLY TO MR. LINNEY. A Patriotic Speech that Won Much Applause The South Defended By Our Able Congressman. Washington, Feb. 1. Congress man Kluttz, in the House to-dav, delivered a speech in answer to Linney. Mr. Kluttz said: "Mr. Chairman On yesterday, when the House resolved itself into committee of the whole for consid eration of the Indian appropriation hill, my distinguished friend from North Carolina, Mr. . Linney, evidently thought that the House had resolved itself into a Court of Appeals for the consideration of the North Carolina election law, or at least into a forum for the manufacture of campaign speeches for home consumption. In re plying briefly to his diatribe against the people of the South in general, and the good people of North Carolina in particular, I shall add no word of sectional or personal bitterness to this discus sion. "Would to God, sir, that we could let theMead past' bury its dead, anil that we could leave the great questions settled by our great war where they were settled by the dread arbitrament of arms. In a conversation, about the close of the Spanish-Cuban war, which I had with the honored chief mag istrate of this great republic, a man who, while I differ from his politics, I honer as every able patriot and honest American does, he said to me, sir, that the war was worth all that it had cost, if it had done no more than to obliter ate sectionalism and to bring all the people of all sections of this great country into a common un derstanding with each other once more. It was a noble sentiment, sir, nobly expressed, and worthy the chief citizen of this ereat re- rmhlio: and it was a sentiment to which I most ardently responded, .4. t a sell IX Luc lib iu nuitu X UB11CVD that the thinking people of this country, without regard to politics or to sections, most heartily sub scribe. 1 "And yet, sir, when, as my friend from North Carolina said, I foreign soil is drinking up the . 1 t 1 ' I -X.T xl Diooa oi American neroes, iorm ern born, Eastern born, Western born and Southern born, thank God alike, Fitz Lee and Joe Wheeler, along with Lawton and Otis and McArthur hare demon strated that Southern people are loyal to the flag of our fathers and that when it is unfurled they are willing to go as far as the farthest in defence of American rights and American liberties (applause). Yin HT il l XT J 1 vvnen worm ragiey, oi norm Carolina, laid down his life and crimsoned the deck of the ship with his warm life blood, poured out as libation upon the alter of his country's need, and when as vol unteers had been called for, battal ions have come from the savannahs and plains and mountains of the South, and side by side have fought with your boys from East and North and West, in upholding the honor and glory of that flag which I thank God, waves once more over a re-united country (applause). wnen tnese occur- rences are lasmg piace i near a . i r . i . . - -r l note of discord and it comes, I am sorry to say, from two North Carolina Republicans, in coarse, bass note from the Senate wing of the capitol, and in high treble of mountain region of North Carolina a discordant note endeavoring to rekindle fires of sectionalism which, thank God, had almost ex pired, and to re-open again ques tions which ought to remain set tled.' Mr. Kluttz was rapturously ap plauded when he closed. - ALDERMEN NIGHT. Petitions Bead Hog Ordinance Mat ter Deferred Un til Next Meeting A Counter Hog Ordinance.

BRITISH TO ATTEMPT AID FOR LADYSMITH. Boers and British Throwing Shells Great Fire Raging Along the Veldt. SPECIAL TO DALLY SUN. London, Feb. 2. There is every indication of a wholly new move ment on a big scale in progress for the relief of Ladysmith. The War Office jealously guards the secret, but the noticeable activity there day and night for the past week confirms this. A hint of big developments leaked out from high official sourcesl Military experts agree that the surprise is probably a movement of force to relieve Ladysmith by long detour as far as Colenso under General Kitchener by a strong corps, which organization has been kept a close official secret. Modder River, Feb. 1. A great fire has been burning along the veldt since yesterday afternoon. It is two miles in length and ex tends along the plain between Jacobsdal and Koy jes dam.

It is believed that under the cover of smoke some recent rein forcements that have arrived at Magersfentein marched in the direction of Barkly West and Komdodsberg districts. , The British long range artillery left in the front threw shells in the direction of the Boer position. The "Boers were shelled by the British from the west for half au hour in the forenoon, probably to cover the movement referred to. Their shells hit nobody. Boer losses, if any, are unknown.
