Saturday morning, having been out for
twenty hours. The defendant received
congratulations from her counsel, but

GENERAL cRONJe,s PROTEST.
He Declares the British Are Violating
the Cseuex-a Convention


the Geneva Convention.
London, Nov 15.-There is no ad-
ditional news regarding the progress
of hostilities in South Africa this
morning except dispatch from Mafe-
king, forwarded by a runner dated
Oct. 81, which says that during the
afternoon General Cronje, the Boer
commander. sent an envoy to Colonel
Baden-Powell, under a flag of truce,
to declare that he did not consider
the Geneva convention authorized the
flag of the Red Cross society to fly
from several buildings at once in the
town, and that in his opinion the en-
ployment of natives against whites
and the use of dynamite mines were
both opposed to the rules of war.
Colonel Baden-Powell replied that
the Geneva convention did not stipu-
late as to the number OF Red Cross
stations permissible, and that the
Beers were only required to respect the
convent, the hospital and the women's
laager, all of which were beyond the
town limits. The British commander
also pointed out that mines were recog-
nized adjuncts of civilized warfare.
and that the defenses of Pretoria were
extensively mined. Moreover, he re-
minded General Cronje that the Beers
had fired upon natives, burned their
kraals and raided their cattle, and
that the natives only defended their
lives and property.
Despite three warnings from Colonel
Baden-Pcwell the Beers continued de-
liberately TO shell the hospital and the
women's lGoger. TIE sending of the
Boer envoy was regarded as a mere
pretext for penetrating the British
lines
