BATTLE LIKELY TODAY.
Critics In London Expect Big
Fighting.
THE B0ERs WERE ENTRENCHING.
Butler Reported Them as Getting Ready
to pight--He Was Smelling the Enc

LONDON, Jan. Ia a. m.-Military
critics III utilization with the war office
consider that the expected battle, along
the wide arc south and west Of Lady
smith, can hardly be delayed beyond
today From Durham it is reported
that fighting has already begun. The
war office issued the following:
From Butler, Spearman's Camp,

and Lyttleton ) brigade are across the
Tugela at Potgeiter's Drift. The
enemy's position is being bop1barded
by us.
".Five miles higher up Warren has
crossed the FLYER by pontoon 50 yards
long. He hopes his force will by even

river to his right front. The enemy IS
busily engaged entrenching.
"From Roberts, Cape Town, Jan. Is:
'Gatacre reports that 300 men of all
ranks have been moved from Bushman's
Hoeck to Hoperberg, and the Seventy
fourth field battery and one company OF
mounted infantry from Sterkstroom to
Bushman's Hoeck. Otherwise there is
no change
General Buffers forces, engaged in
the fianking operations across the Tu-
gela, are some $4,000 or a. 600 bayonets,
1890 horses and 40 guns. The dispo-
sition of his other $4,000 or 20, 900 men
is not known, although the assumption
is that the whole army will be III action

arrives.
Three weeks ago General Butler had
0,000 men. Considerable reinforce
ments have since reached him, giving
him probably $4,000 men and so guns
all told.
Estimates of how many men and guns
the Beers have to oppose him are mere
guess work. In not replying to General
Lyttleton's shells, they are using the
tactics that proved SO successful in the
battles of Magersfontein and Celenso-
lying low III their trenches and thus
hoping to conceal their precise position
until the infantry advance.
General Buffers warning about the
misuse of the white flag by the Beers
in his proclamation to the troops is con-
sidered rather broad hint to give no
quarter. His phrase, There will be no
turning back, is played upon edltori-
ally by the morning papers as presaging
cheerful announcements.
Lord Methuen lies behind his works
at Modder river. 1t is estimated that
his forces will nave to be nearly or quite
doubled before he can relieve Kimberley.

MOUNT ALICE, near Potgieter's Drift,
Natal, Monday, Jan. 15-General Butler
has issued spirited appeal and instrue-
ton to the forces, beginning:
1--WE are going to the relief of our
comrades in Ladysmith. There will be
no turning back. u
The order proceeds to advise the men,
when they charge, regarding the condi-
tons under which they should receive
the surrender of any of the enemy it
also warns them that the Beers are
treacherous in the use of the white flag.

Tsin to the tune of $4OO, 900 in

amount being now in the treasury

have secured their part of the loot,
too. And this gives to the Chin
ese an excellent defense to the
claims of the powers for indem-
nifty. No declaration of war was
ever made, and China remained a
friendly power. All the powers are
therefore liable to the Chinese claim
Of indemnity. But Judge Lynch
