Yance , Model About Beady. Kilbioh, Deo. Durlnr the past 80 days a petition signed by nearly every lawyer in the western district (composed of 47 counties) has been sent to Senator rntcnara ana sutler, asking them, to use every effort to secure the confirma tion of Judge Ewart. The attorneys say to the petition that the Judge has presided at several terms of court and that hit appointment is entirely accept. able to the bar of the district, This is In itself a great compliment to the Judge and an answer te Senator Butler's oharge that be Is unfit for the place. ,Io fact, there is. curiosity to know- what position the. Senator Will now take in the Senate on this question. Denial Is made most positively of statement,' that there has been made. a deal between Senators Prltchard and Butler by which Judge Ewart It t be dropped on the condition that Butler and the Populists fight the constitutional amendment and that Marshall HoK shall be made Judge. A. telegram" was received by the attor neyt for the corporation commission and the Qovernor from Judge SImonton, which was a reply to the petition to fix a time for hearing amotion for a rehear ing and re-argument. of the tax assess ment oasa, The judje says that he will fix the time, and give the ' railroads an opportunity to make' answer.

The Boers numbered at least 8,000, having been reinforced from the army Investing Kimberley. - -v ,- The British 'found "them strongly In trenched on both banks of the river, also In the broad bed of the -etream, which was pretty dry. They were es pecially strong on the northern - bank which, being heavily lined with thick bushes, formed an ideal position for the Boers. The burghers la possession of thlsvplsce have been for several weeks busily- preparing for today's battle". ;' The fighting wu terrific. It raged for hours, being especially hard In the after noon. The British, however, although In ferior In numbers; showed magnificent gallantrydrove the Boers out of ., their position on the south side of the river, forced them across the stream and then cleared them from the other side,' until they Were driven off at full retreat. This is an enormous gains and opens the road to Kimberley. General Metheun now hu a large force firmly established across the river. " Taylor or Goebel. ...-. .FBAHKroKT. Ky., December 8 At noon tomorrow the State Board of Elec tion Commissioners of - Kentucky will meet meet to canvass the returns from the recent State election and Ao decide whether Goebel Or Taylor to entitled to the certificate of election as Governor. There is not mach probability that the question will be settled tomorrow, and It may be Wednesday or later before a certlfloate to issued. Both tides express confidence, but no one can predict w ItS accuracy the deolslon which will be ar rived at by the board. The certified let urns from the county boards, now on file with the Secretary of Bute, give Taylor a plurality of 2,483, but the Democrats declare that enouch of these votes will be thrown ont, and that Goebel will be awarded the certld cats. .

A serious delay In shipment, however, will result. The wreck Is supposed to have been oaused by a brekea journal.
