LONDON, July 17.—The Buller con-
troversy was again raised by sir Ed-
ward Gray (Bart.) liberal, in the house
of commons to-day on the war office
vote. Sir Edward charged the war
office officials with acting unfair-y
toward General Buller and demanded
the publication of further papers.
The war secretary, Mr. Broderick,
opposed further publications, which he
declared could not relieve General
Buller of the responsibiity of su( h
mistakes as the abandonment of the
guns at Colenso and the proposais to
surrender Ladysmith, which, if they
had been listened to, would have pro-
duced a disaster for .which there was
no parallel in British history.
In regard to those proposals, contin,
ued Mr. Broderick, when Genaral Bul-
ler sounded his note of diepalf to
General White he had a hellogram in
his pocket received a fortnight befor
saying that General White had provis-
ions for seventy days and could defend
Ladyamith while the food lasted.
General Butler's rententlon after
Colenso and Spionkov was inevitable
under the circumstances and his ap-
poinment to command Aidershot was
simply a resumption of his former of-
fice. General Buller was "a good
pi ace commander."
luster Sir Edward Gray's proposed
vote of censure of the government for
its treatment of General Buller, was
defeated after much speech making.

Ten Thousand Dollars Offered to Any-
one Who Will Quench the Fire
and Control the Gusher.
--O--
JENNINGS, La., July 17.—The situa-
tion here remains practically unchang-
ed. No further effort will be made to
check the fames at the burning well
until twenty boilers are connected so
as to turn on an immense quantity of
steam. A large supply of sal-ammoniac
has been ordered and will be used on
the fire in connection with the steam
when the test is made.
The sight is unparalleled. Words
can not describe the spectacle It pre-
sents.
Reports that all the other gushers
would be destroyed are not true. They
have been covered with dirt so as to
protect them against the flames should
a high wind come up or should the pipe
on No. 2 burn off.
Ten thousand dollars was offered for
any one who would extinguish the
flames and get control of the gusher.
Smoke can be seen from a distance of
twenty miles and by night the sky is
brightly illuminated for a much greater
distance. Many excursions arrive dally
bringing sightseers. The roar made by
the burning oil can be heard for over
a mile. Ijvery teams are at a premium.
Parties are going out in all conceivat i
ble conveyances.
