Signs of Greatly Increased Boer Activity
In Natal.
LONDON. Nov. I3.-There are signs of
greatly increased Boer activity in Natal
and along the western frontier. All
the dispatches tend to show that the
British are holding out ably. Colonel
Baden-Powell reports that all was we'll
at Mafeking on Nov. +. Ladysmith's
latest date is Nov. 8. While nothing
adverse is heard from the latter point
and confidence is felt in General
Whites ability-previous experience
having shown that the Boer artillery is
not very efective-it is borne in mind
to be proved that acquisition of artillery,
which has destroyed the former mobil-
ity Of the British forces, has also :.
Failed to Give Them Any Advantage.
On the contrary the reverse is the case.
1t is held here that if the Beers had not
been hampered by the transport Of
heavy guns and their rescue from tight
places General Joubert might ere this
have been in Pietermaritzburg. Unless
the Boer heavy artillery justifies itself
by reducing Ladysmith it will again
hamper him in the eventual retreat
from Natal when General Butler sends
the relieving force. 1t is believed that
the BoeI retreat will he made over the
Drakensburg range into the Sou]spans-
burg district, where every preparation
for provisioning and maintaining the
Beers is said to have been made for the
last stand and where it will be difficult
to 0islUlye them.
