New York World Cablegram-Special Tele-
gram )-The Boer efforts to incite the Ba-
suto chiefs to fight against the British have
so far proved a failure and In fact the
British officials have much difficulty in re-
strainlng the blacks from attacking the Free
State.
The British forces have been withdrawn
from Stormberg Junction south to Queens
town. also a junction town on the East Len
don railroad running to Aliwalnorth, on
the Free State border
While this movement has alarmed the in
habltants and has produced a bad effect
locally, 1t was absolutely necessary from a
strategic point Of view. as the troops were
not numerically strong enough to oppose
the Free State forces, which have seized
Allwalnorth and are moving south down
the railroad =
Officials here are quite confident of the
ability of General White to hold out at Lady
smith until General Buffers army is ready
for work.
Everything here and elsewhere through
the Cape indicates a fierce and bloody strug-
gle with the two republics. All opinions
agree that the Beers will fight to the end
and it Is believed the imperial government
is not less determined.

Beers Had Friendly Advice.

Copyright, 1893, by Press Publishing Coz
LONDON, Nov. 6.-(New York World Ca
blegram-Special Telegram Lord Charles
Beresford, member of Parliament, in a
speech last night said that he regarded with
great apprehension what might be the atti-
tude of the blacks toward the vanquished,
when the British had conquered the Beers,
that he had already said and must repeat
that in view Of such contingency the gov
ernment was not even now sending out suf-
ficent troops to South Africa.
Probably when the government calculated
what was necessary for the campaign it did
not reckon upon SO early an accidental cap
ture of two battalions or of the possible ac-
cessions Of Cape Dutch to the Boer side or
OF the possible action of the natives or with
regard to the possibility of European die
tation.
He did not himself believe that the Beers
would have ventured to go to war against
the united forces and the resources of the
British empire unless they had received
some friendly advice, quite unofiicially, OF
course, that they would fare better If they
fought than if they did not fight and that
by lighting they would afford some ground
for certain ether countries to interpose in
the way of arbitration.
