WAITING FOR uETHUEN
Mighty Army of Beers Wait
ing For Methuen at
Spytfontein.

London-Boers are said to be at Spy
tfontein with IL 900 men, we'll intrench-
ed and supported by powerful artillery
with all the ranges measured. 1t is
stated also that the Beers are hurrying
men from Natal. Three thousand are
said to have already reached Spytfon-
ten While this report needs confirma-
ton. it shows the great danger Of Gen.
Methuen's advance, 80 long as the at
tention of Beers is not fully occupied in
Natal. The gravest risk unquestion-
ably is to the long and exposed line of
communications which links Modder
river and Kimberly with De Aar.
1t is clear that Gen. Gatacre is hav
ing good deal of difficulty in the north
OF Cape Colony His main body was at
Potter's kral several days ago and twas
hoped that he would soon join hands
with Gen. French from Naauwpoort and
sweep the invaders before him, but the
whole of this region is ablaze with dis
affection aud revolt. A rising is I'M
minent in Griqualand East.
The Beers have entered Dordrecht and
are advancing to meet the force OF Cat
acre, which 10 still in Potter's kral await
ing reinforeements with the object OF
getting possession Of the railway be-
tween Queenstown and Moltens, and
thus preventing his junction with Gen.
French. This activity of the Beers was
quite unexpected by the British. Gsn.
Gatacres force does not exceed 5000
men. The report that the Beers made
a final attempt on Monday to carry
Ladysmith by storm finds new believers
as does an accompanying statement that
the Beers have abandoned the fight.
Summing up the situation briefly, it
appears that all three of the beleaguer-
ed towns are still safe, that Col. Baden
Powell, Col. Kentwich and Gen. White
all agree in the confident assertion that
they are proof against all and every as
sault and that decisive battles in both
Natal and on the western frontier OF the
Free State are near at hand.
Another dispatch gives reports from
Col. Kekewich, written Dec. 3 and A.,
showing the Beers were increasing iii
numbers around Kimberley. The Boer
advance in the northeastern part OF Cape
Colony Is becoming remarkable. The
local farmers are hocking to the Boer
laagers, the towns people, in many in
stances, welcoming the invaders with
every demonstration Of Joy. The annex
alton of British territory proceeds daily
The reported Boer successes have made
a great impression among the Basutos,
Advices from Pretoria say the govern
ment has allowed two cable messages to
reach Winston Churchill. The mint at
Pretoria is coming hundred thousand
soversigns monthly.
The war Office has been notified that
the British had five killed and % wound
ed in the sortie Kimberley Nov. %, in
cluding three colonial officers.
The announcement is made in spec
ial dispatch from Bloemfontein, dated
Sunday, Dec 3, that President Steyn OF
the Orange Free State has Joined the
Boer forces of the Modder river. His
appearance, the dispatch sayH, caused
great enthusiasm among the Beers.
