LONDON, Aug 31--The British forces
in South Africa continue 10 make q vic
torious advance, and General Roberts lat
| est reports indicate that Boer opposition
is decidedly on the wane.
English troops have taken Waterfall
bowen and Watervalonder. and Butler Is
ready to enter Nooitgedacht.
1t is reported by natives that Kruger
and the remnants of the burgher army
have fed to Pilgrims Rest.
General French has found the railway
intact IS far as WateTva1onder. with the
exception of small bridge near the sta
tio2.
The British forces are driving the Fed
eralists eastward. and. it is thought,
should soon be able TO trap and crush what
remains OF the army OF compel them 10
lay down their arms and sue for peace.
1t is apparent that the remaining bur
ghers have rallied around Dom Paul and
that the TransvaaI President is now seek
ing safer place of refuge.
The War Office confidently expects to
hear good news from General Roberts with
in the coming week. According to mill
taTy experts, the Beers are scarcely able
TO put up any formidable opposition and
must soon capituIate or scatter
General Roberts despatch TO the War
Office was sent under date OF Belfast,
August go, and follows:
we have occupied Watervaltoven
and Wateryaloader, and Butler. with
some mounted troops is overlooking
Nooitgedacht- He teIegraphs that the
place Is apparently deserted except by
tne British prisoners, who are passing
up the line westward toward Water
yalOndeT in q continuous stream. No
Beers are visible.
Natives report that Kruger and all
of the commandos left yesterday for
Pilgrims Rest.
French reports the railway intact
as far as Watervalonder, except fer
small bridge cicse TO the station,
which had been destroyed. He found
one OF cur prisoners and a few wound
ed Beers in the hospital.
ROBERTS"
In previous despatch from Genera.
Roberts, dated August %. and also p-b-
hsned by the War Office. he says:
Butler teIegraphs from Helvetia,
four miles north OF Machadadorp that
only few of the enemy were left
there this morning.
The flank movement of French and
PoleCarew, from Belfast on the Ly-
denburg Road, added TO the advance of
DundonaId's mounted troops in their
front, caused the Beers to abandon
what is & very strong position
The country thus being cleared of
the enemy. our troops moved eastward.
The South African Light Horse. after
some little opposition, entered Water
Talboven and drove the scattered rem
nant OF the enemy through the town
"Freneh's cavalry has reached Wa
tervalondeT, having met with little op-
position. DuadonaId, with Strathco-
mas Horse, is still operating in the
east, not far from Nooitgedacht.
The progress OF the troops is much
retarded by a wet mist and the diff
cult nature Of the country.

NEW YORK, AIg. S1.-Ex- Senator Muir
ply said today that the anti-CoIer and
anti-RiIl forces in the Democratic State
of the $50 delegates He intimated that
there would be some surprises when the
delegates lined up at Saratoga. While con-
hdent that they viii have safe working g
majority on every proposition, Messrs-
Croker and Murphy are watching their op-
ponents carefully. They have made no
presentation in the selection OF candidates
because Hugh Mclaughlin has not yet in
dicated his preference for Governor. The
Kings county leader is the man who really
controls the situation, because he holds
the balance OF power, with his sixty-three
delegates.
Mclaughlin is TO return to Brooklyn
next week from Jamesport and until then
the Democratic leaders Will do little in the
way Of selecting candidates for the Sara
toga convention
The Kings county leader is opposed to
the nomination Of Mr.. Coler for Governor.
but having. as he believes. insured the
defeat of the comptroller he is averse. it
and the upstate Democrats to extremes
Word has been received from Jamesport
that Mr.. Mclaughlin favors compromise
with Hill and his followers. Tammany
men say that this does not please Messrs.
Croker and Murphy Tammany is to a
certain extent committed to the support
OF w F. Mackey for Governor He has
fJI1CT
Kings county leaders and is not regarded
as a strong candidate in other parts of the
State. Protests against the nomination Of
Mackey, it is said. are pouring into the
Murphy headquarters and at the same time
number OF prominent Democrats whose
names have been mentioned have refused
TO consider any offer of a nomination for
Governor
IN this situation. John B. StanchfieId is
again looming up as possible candidate
He is Hill man. but he is popular up
the State. and his present strength is
largely due 10 the facs that he refused
10 be the candidate of faction.
The continued silence OF Mr. Hill causes
Messrs. Croker and Murphy some concern.
They know that he is a man who IS al
ways ready TO spring new trick al an
unexpected momsnt, said Tammany man
this morning They have not forgotten
the surprise he gave them at the State
committee meeting in Saratoga and they
suspect that he is planning another for
the convention.
The friends Of Mr. Hill are greatly dis
pleased with the Tammany men. The COM
ing of members of the National Commit
tee 10 open a branch headquarters In this
city, it is said, has not dissipated this
feeling. The National Committeeman
have ignored the State headquarters in
the st. James Building. while they have
been in conference with Messrs. Croker
and Murphy.
The policy announced by Mr. CoIer's |
friends adds something to the disturbed |
OF the situation. They insist |
that his name is TO go before the con- |
vention TO be voted for, and that it will |
not be withdrawn until he is beaten on a |
roll call. Messrs Croker and Murphy do |
not fear stampede because they have !
their delegates well in hand, but they re- |
alize that the presentation of the name of |
the comptroller is going to create DEM |
in the convention.

CUYABO OCCUPIED.

Americana Begin General Advance on
tho Country south Of Manila.
MANILA. Jan. 3.-The first movement
Of a general southern advance occurred
during the morning when two bat
talions of the Thirty-ninth infantry
landed and occupied Cuyabo, on the
south side of Laguna de Bay. Two
Americans were killed and four were
wounded. Twenty-four Of the enemy's
Aead were found in one house. One
hundred and fifty prisoners and four g.

ton of the troops from the cascoes.
which vas made under the enemy's
thrapnel fire. The enemy evacuated
the place before the charging Ameri-
cans, retreating to Santa Rosa, to
which town they were pursued.
Heavy fighting occurred along the
road to Santa Rosa, which was occu-
pied, the insurgents retreating south
toward Singulen. The Americans
burned the country between and around
Cuyabo. ~
More Troops to Guard Manila.
The gunboat returned to Calambo for
reinforcements and thence came to Ma
nila to fetch ammunition. She re-
Gently captured two of the enemy's
steam launches, one under the fire of
artillery at Calam DO, and also four cas-
Goes loaded with rice.
Other regiments are mobilizing at
San Pedro Macati and Pasig, prepara-
tory to continuing NE southern ad-
vance.
Sundays capture of bombs involved
the seizure of documents inculpating a
number Of Filipinos who intended to
rise against the Americans. Papers
were also found showing distribution
of the city into districts and careful
assignment of leaders and followers.
The precautions taken by the Ameri-
cans on Saturday, it is now evident,
alone prevented an uprising. The pro-
vost marshal has requested that two
more regiments be detailed for the pro-
lection of Manila. Three thousand
troons ara now actual1y IN the city
