Beers STILL MOVING NORTH
GENERAL HUNTER IN PURSUIT
Beers Evacuated WiDdsOrtOn and
kIipdam-Mr. Begbie's, the Amer
icnn, Fate Being Watched by Hay
-Rumor of Anti-Dutch Plot.

Warrenton, May 6.-1he Naal river
has been successfully crossed at Wind
sorton by Bartons brigade with whom is
General Hunter, commanding the dlVl-
sion. The Beers have evacuated Wind
sorton and Klipdam. They are trekklng
northward an dare fighting for all they
are worth. Barton is hanging on to
their rear and shelling them vigorously.
Judging from the clouds of dust, the
retreating Beers must be in vary large
numbers.
London, May G.-London has been
confidently expecting to have news OF the
relief of Mafeking.
A dispatch from Thabanchu, dated May
4, says the situation is practically UNI
changed, the Beers holding their posl.lon
and sending occasional shells into the
British camp. From the top of Thaban-
chu hill one can see over the Boer camp.
The country, through which a number OF
Beers are trekking, is exceedingly dlf-
ficult 1t is learned that the Beers are
trying to draw supplies from the Lady
bradn district.
Inc Seventeenth brigade was moved
four miles south, presumably to assist
General Brabant if necessary.
\ dispatch from Aliwalnorth says:
Three hundred captured cattle and
horses were brought in last night. Inc
wounded are being gradually moved here
from Mafeteng."
A dispatch from Cape Town says:
"The general feeling here, in which Of
fetal circles participate, is that Lord
Roberts advance toward Pretoria will be
rapid. The Boer prisoners do not an
ticipate that any effective resistance will
be encountered"
Anxiety is felt regarding the fate of
Mr.. Begbie, who has been arrested III
connection with the blowing up of the
shell factory, Secretary Hay is watch
ing the accused mans interests.
Roberts Force Is Moving.
London, May 6.-Roberts is evidently
losing no time in following up the sub
stantial advantage gained by the occu-
patton of Brandfort, and his whole force
is apparently moving on Windburg. The
place mentioned in Lord Roberts dispatch
to the war office this morning as Neal
Welkot" cannot be found on the maps:
and it is likely that it is a cable error,
and is near Vetkop, in which General Ian
Hamilton seems to be, midway between
Houtnek and Windburg, and has thus got
between Windburg and General Olivier
command from Wepener, which Is occu-
pvinp Thaba Patchoa.
Between Thabanchu, Ladybrand, and
the country is rough and suit
ed for the Beers tactics, so the DrLlsh
are liable to be considerably harassed
before they capture the stronghold.
Experts u.ner as to whether Lord
Roberts is bound towards krOonstaadt
or in the direction of Bethulem. The
latter place is the terminus OF the line
Joining with the naval railroad at Van
Reenans pass and the capture OF that
place would probably compel the Beers
to leave the Drakenburg range and thus
open the way for General Buffers adj
vance. The British will have to recross
the bridge over the Vet before the rail
road between Brandfort and Windburg
becomes available.
