BRITISH Loss VERY HEAVY.
Details of Disaster to Lincolnshire
Regiment Creep In.
TWO THIRDS OF MEN MISSING.
Attack of Beers at Daspoortfort on
Wednesday n Mastery Efrort-EngIish
Expend An Ammunition and Then
Wait assault with Bayonets.

Pretoria, July 16.-Col. Mahon, re-
) took all the position held by the Beers
in the neighborhood of Reitfontein.
A number of Boer dead were found.
; The British casualties were trifling.
; Details are now at hand regarding
the disaster to the Lincolnshire regi-
ment on Wednesday. 1t appears that
five companies were ordered Tuesday
to proceed and hold the pass through
Magalesburg in the neighborhood Of
Daspoortfort. They arrived at the
pass in the afternoon, where three
companies with two guns took up a
position and camped for the night,
leaving two companies on a plain
south of the pass. The eastern hill
was rugged, rocky and inaccessible,
but further east apparently approach
able from the main ridge. At day
break yesterday the Beers appeared on
the eastern kopje and opened heavy
fire. Confusion ensued. The colonel
ordered the men to take up a position
on a kopje west of the gap.
Under Hot Fire All Day.
From this point hot fire ensued
during the entire day. Two guns, un-
der the escort of the Scots Greys,
placed in advance of tho main body,
were captured after stout resistance
Nearly every man was killed or
wounded. A Maxim gun was brought
into action early in the day. The fire
was too hot, and the men were finally
forced to retire. A sergeant, aided by
seven volunteers, saved the gun. There
was a continuous fire all along the
lime, the Lincolnshire regiment men
vigorously replying. About o'clock
in the afternoon the Beers appeared to
the left of the position occupied by the
British. An officer and fifteen men at
tempted to charge them. Fourteen men
were killed or wounded as a result OF
the charge. Three companies were
practically surrounded, but they kept
up steady fire unwaveringly until to-
ward nightfall, when their ammuni-
ton had been expended.
Waiting with Fixed Bayonets.
The latest arrival from the scene
says that at the moment of his escape
the men were taking a good position
under cover and with fixed bayonets
were awaiting the approach of the
Beers. 1t is understood upon good
authority that the Beers have en-
ployed armed natives. Two OF the ma
itives leaped from cover, when a small
party from the Lincolnshire regiment
stepped up and demanded their sur
render. A soldier stepped forward and
shot both Of the natives dead. One
officer, who succeeded in making his
escape, had an encounter with an
armed native. 1t is feared that the
losses of the natives were numerous
About thirty of the British struggled
back to camp today. According to all
accounts great force is being assem-
bled to prevent further progress of the
Beers. Commandant Grobler, who
commanded the federals at Nitral
Mex, had four guns.

RATHER FIGHT THAN WORK

From the Philadelphia Times.
There has been only one serious trou.
BILE in Cuba since the United States Gov
ernment interviewed and by it's army and
navy won freedom Tor the oppressed
people of that ong-fated island, and that
one trouble is the Incidence and thrift
lessness of those who have bt en- fighting
for independence. The more substantial
people of Cuba have been so utterly i'm
poverished by the war that they are un-
able to retrieve their fortunes by restor-
ing their properties to fruitfulness; but
the one thing that has been visible in
every part OF the island since the inde-
pendence Of its people has been attained
is the unwillingness of those who fought
for Liberty to go to work and to join
in organizing any government that does
not give preference and fortune to them
selves.
The only way that the rebellious
people of Cuba could be thoroughly re-
conciled wou'n be to give them plenty
TO eat and nothing to do. Even then
they would be likely to cause trouble
once in while, but as eng as they are
expected to take care of themselves and
their government, with the protecting
aid OF the United Siates, thev are likely
10 be very formidable disturbing ele-
nients among the people of Cuba.
