Fighting in Store,

pnblics Roi-ted at Colesburg, Cape
Colony, aud at AliwaI North.
London, Nov. 2O.-Thls morning 5
news gives little that alters the com
plexion of the situation. Since the
fight OF Nov. 9 matters, so far as Is
known, have been fairly quiet at Lady
smith. This fight. according to British
reports, was opened at o'clock in the
morning by the Beers, and continued
until II o'clock The Beers, according
to the same reports, were driven back
Rt every point. with a loss estimated
at 500 men, while the British loss was
small.
It is not unlikely that the Beers,
badly Informed as to the nature and
extent Of the British preparations to
advance to the relief OF Ladysmith,
may be hesitating regarding the next
move The situation in Natal Is very
complicated, more especially IL the re-
ports be true that the great Tugela
bridge has been destroyed.
The success OF the next move on
either side will depend more on
strategy than on superir' numbers.
The Beers have three lines OF action
open. They can hold the railway with
the force they have at Ennersdale, fall
ing slowly back before the British ad-
vance and threatening It from Weenen,
or, in the second place, they can ad-
vance from Weenen and try to carry
Estcourt, or. in the third place, they
can advance due south from Weenen
to Weston, cut the railway and blow up
the bridge over the Mooi river. II il
be true that there are 10000 Beers.

Botha. marching south to meet the
British relief force, heavy fighting is

Nothing is known with certainty re-

is laying his plans with the utmost
care. He is busy night and day cut
ting down the baggage to minimum,
and issuing orders with a view of in
surfing that the officers shall be indis-

On Thursday. Nov. 49, a combined
force of Free State and Transvaal
burghers occupied Colesburg, Cape
Colony, without opposition by the resi-
dents and proclaimed the district to be
Free State territory.
A Boer commando from Rouxvllle,
$50 strong, entered Aliwal North, and
hoisted the flag of both republics in the
market square, proclaiming the dis
trict republican territory. The Brit
