witch almost instantly died.

Beers Have Already Cut on Commu-

Outposts.

LONDON, Oct. l6,-The gradual cutting
of of outlying points at the scene OF hos
tilitieS in South Africa from telegraphic
communication reduced the accurate news
obtainable to a miuimum. Thus far, how
ever, no reliable information has been re-
ceived OF any actual fighting outside OF the
aflair at Kraaipan and occasional exchanges
OF shots at various outposts, There is no lack
OF circumstantial stories regarding fighting
at various points. but these are scarcely
published before they are denied.
The only salient facts in this morn,ug' $
kilograms are that tba Roers have advanced
beyond Newcastle and formed laager near
Dannhauser about twelve miles north OF
Dundee, and that Kimberley is isolated and
probably invested
Kimberley has thus become the immediate
center OF interest. The last message from
Kimberley prior to the cutting of the tele-
graph and the railway by the Beers said
AN the troops at Kimberley are we'll" As
there are 5000 troops there there is little
anxiety for the safety OF the town, especially
as the Boer forces are said to be of only
