SOUTH AFRICAN WAR.
Situation in the Light of the Latest
News from the Battlefields
in the Transvaal.

London, Dec. 6.-Information from
the seat of war in South Africa is not
of character to encourage the
friends of the British. Anxiety is in
creasing and orders have been issued
for another division of troops to be
got in readiness at Aldershot. Gen.
Cronje, in his report of the Modder
river fight, says that the engagement
commenced at six o'clock in the morn
ing and lasted till seven in the even
ing, when the British retired fully de-
feated. The number of Boer killed
and wounded was small. The bonn
bardment of Ladysmith continues I'M
abated. The report that Gen. Joubert
has been killed is untrue.
London, Dec. 7.-Dispatches in Lon
don say that the Boer artillery COM
manding Ladysmith continues to bonn
bard the city daily. A number of the
British guns have been silenced. Gen.
Cronje's force continue to shell Ma
feking at intervals and expects soon
to reduce the town. The Boer forces
south of Kimberley are making the ad-
vance of Gen Methuen very difficult.
London. Dec. S.-With Gen. Butler
not far from Colenso, Gen. Methuen
again in the saddle and President Steyn,
of the Orange Free State, at the head
of the Modder river commando, there
seems to be sufficient promise of excit-
ing events in South Africa. Serious bat
ties are looked for in the vicinity of
Ladysmith and to the south of Kimber-
ley.
London, Dec g. - Advices received
here say that 5000 Beers were almost
within rife range of the British army
under Lord Methuen. With the extraor-
linary mobility they have exhibited
from the beginning Of the war, they are
seeking to surround Methuen, block the
advance of further reenforcements and
strike without giving more time for
rest and preparation.

Washington, Dec. 6.-Attorney Gen

The love of law ana the sense OF obe-
dience and submission to the lawfully con-
stituted judicial tribunals are embedded
IN the hearts Of our people, and any viola-
ton of these sentiments and disregard Of,
their obligations justly arouses public con-
domination. The president repeats what he
said in his inaugural address of March 4.
1897: The constitutional authorities must
be cheerfully and vigorously upheld.
Lynchings must not be tolerated in great
and civilized country like the United
States. Courts, not mobs, must execute the
penalties Of the laws. The preservation of
public order, the right of discussion, the
integrity of courts and the orderly admins
tration Of justice must continue forever
the rock of safety upon which our govern:
ment securely rests"

Presented to this congress are great OPP

increases the weight Of our obligations to

sensitive of them as we contemplate the

Methuen Reinforced.
London, Dec. 11.-While so far as the
actual British advance is concerned this
mornings dispatches show little
change. in the situation, the authorities
anticipate from the announcements that
howitzers and cavalry have reached
Gen. Methuen, and that Gen. Butler has
received the heavy artillery for which
he was waiting, that the advance will
no longer be delayed. News of i'm
portant battles by both generals is ex-
pected soon.
The fact that Gen. Butler has Or
dered 200 stretcher bearers from PETER
maritzburg to assist the regular ambu-
lance corps indicates that he antici-
pates sharp fighting.
The latest pigeon from Ladysmith
furnished Gen. Butler with an impor-
tant map sent by Gen. White, presum-
ably showing the disposition of the
Boer forces and the vulnerable points.
The engineers at Frere camp have
