THE WAR IN AFRICA.

Further details Of the battle Of Bel
mont, Cape Colony, show that the
British forces numbered 1000, ard the
Beers 5000 or less. The British loss
was 22O killed, wounded and missing.
General Me,huen reports that he does
not know the Poer loses, but of the
fifty prisoners taken, nineteen are
wounded. 1t is believed that this en-
gagement has opened the road to the
Boer position on the Modder river.
In this battle the flower OF the
British army was engaged. The fact
that such crack regiments as the
Coldstream, Grenadier and Scots
Guards were made to suffer severely by
Boer farmers, called from their homes
to engage in war, shows that the Brit
ish may reasonably expect a pro'ract-
ed struggle.
Gen. Methuen will have 10 light
again before he is able 10 relieve KIM
berley, as large force OF Beers Is
ready TO block bis path short distance
south of that town.
Cecil Rhodes, it is said, keeps big
balloon ready at Kimberley to escape
by that means should it become ne:es-
sary.
Five thousand British troops from
Estcourt surprised the Beers, occupied
their position, but were unable to hold
it, and were forced by the Beers rapid
fire guns to eyacute it. Eighty OF the
Beers were bayOnetted.
Adyices fran Mafeking, under date
of November IS, state that the British
position there is daily growing more
difficult.
There has been more skirmishing in
Natal, but no important battle, The
Beers have still got the British in an
awkward position in that quarter, and
the relief OF General Whites army at
Ladysmith, Natal, seems by no means
near.
President Kruger and other officials
at Pretoria are actively preparing for
possible siege of their capital. The
total Boer army is estimated at $4,000
men, against which the British expect
to Lutl $4,000.
Only four or five hundred persons
remain in Johannesburg, which, before
the war began, had population oil
over one hundred thousand, mostly
outlanders.
1t is reported from Pretorla that
Commandant Albrecht and Lieutenant
Eloff have started Will q thousand fol-
levers, to capture Buluwayo, RhodeSia
United States Consul Macrum at

"The farmer has no wages except as

the power of the trust to fix the price
of what the farmer sells, you place it
in the power of the trust to lower the
wages that the farmer receives for his
work; and.when you place it In the
power of the trusts to raise the price OF

WHEELER AND LEE.

New York, Nov. pa Washington
dispatch to the Herald says
There are good reasons for believing
that President Mckinley will reward
three distinguished volunteer Office"
now In the service by appointing and
retiring them with the rank and pay
of brigadisr generals Of the regular
army. Thss. officers are General JOS
eph Wheeler. General Fitzhugh Lee
and General James Wilson.
The appointments OF Generals Lee
and Wheeler will be pleasing to the
sou.h and wi / doubtless be accepted
generally as another evidence OF the
lPrs.ilent's desire to deal literally with
the s1-Confederlte generals who 10
promptly cam to The natiOns's defense
and thus wipe out all traces OF section
.ll,n growing out OF the Civil War.
The appointments will not be made
until some time in January, when an
other vacancy will occur by the retire
meut of Gen .ral Anderson. BY tbs
time the authorities believe reduction
| in the volunteer command force will be
in order, and it is probable that the
vacancies in the gisde OF brigadi'r
general will be utalEed a, THO chsnn'

between the Tcuton,c and Angio-salon
Races Might Preserve Peace.

London. Dec. !.--Joseph Chamber
land, the secretary OF state of the coli
onics, in n speech at Leicester ycstcr-
day. said IL was especially gratifying
To note the friendly relations existing
between the Anglo-Snxon branches,
that the understanding between the
United States and Great Britain was
indeed n guarantee of the peace Of the
world. IL was of the utmost impor-
tancc, MIR. Cumberland further re-
marked. that Great britain should not
remain isolated in Europe and her nat
ural alliance was with the great Ger.
man empire. They had had difficulties
with Germany, but their interests aud
sentiments were the same, and an un.
derstanding between the Tcutonic and
Anglo-Saxon races might do more than
any combination Of armies to preserve
the peace of the world. A new triplo
alliance between the Tcutonic race and
the two great branches of the Anglo
Saxons would be n potent influence in
the future of the world.
