LONDON, February %, 4:30 a. H.
From John O'Groats to Lands End
there has been cheering to-day for the
Queen and a universal singing of the
national anthem. This, with mutual
congratulations, is the Briton's way oil
celebrating the most cheerful day Of
| the war.
Already he is taking stock Of the
situation and measuring the future
There is no disposition to over-esti-
mate the success. The government
entertains no delusion. AS announc-
ed in the House of Commons, 10000
additional troops will Immediately GO
! out and the effective will be kept
near 100000. Lord Roberts has done
more than to capture 1000 Beers and
| a few guns. He Is within striking
distance of one of the Boer capitals
and is master of a large district OF the
Free State. He has given shock to
Boer confidence and immeasurably
restored the spirit of his own troops
In capturing Cronje he has taken a
leader whose presence alone was
worth thousands to the Boer couse.
The best opinion here is that the
| Transvaalers are certain to continue
the fight with undiminished valor, but
it is not so certain about the Free
Skaters.
The morning papers without excep-
tion comment on the achievement of
the Boer leader and men in holding off
fer ten days force of from six to eight
times as large as its own. British
opinion is far more generous in vic
tory than in defeat.
Sir Redvers Butler is having hard
time in Natal. 1t is evident now, after
a fortnight's fighting, that he was mis-
led when he wired that there was only
weak rear guard between him and
Ladysmith. Apparently some Of the
hardest fighting of the war took place
at the end of the last week, as an ar
mistice was agreed upon to allow at
tendance upon the wounded and burial
CT the dead. Both sides must have lost
heavily.
At any moment, however, news may
come of Gen. Buffers success. Friday
will begin the fourth month of he
siege of the garrison which is seem
ingly in a position where it Is unable
to do anything to help Gen. Butler.

InniskiIIings Met Terrible Fire

When They Tried to Rush the
Beers ct Peters Hill.
COLENSO, Sunday. February 25.-In
the attempt of the Inniskillings Friday
evening to rush the Boer position on
Pieters Hill, the Beer fire was so terri
BILE when the infantry emerged from
the cover of the trees that almost every
man in the leading half Of the rcgi-
ment fell wounded. The advance line
of the British reached donga in front
CT the first Boer trench which was not
apparent until they were actually IN 1T.
The Beers retired to the crest and then
returned on tieheT flank of the Innfs-
killings, enflading the captured donga
with terrible cross fire.
Finding it impossible to advance or
to hold the position, the British fell
back and entrenched themselves half
way UP the hill.
The Beers maintained heavy fire.
In the course of the night the Dub
lin fusilierS and the Connaughts ar.
irving to support the Inniskillings an
other determined attempt was made to
take the Boer positions. This also
| failed. A heavy fire occurred through
| out the night.
The Inniskillings lost fourteen out Of
seventeen officers killed and wounded
and about 250 non-commissioned Off.
GERS and men killed and wounded.
Gen. Lyttletons brigade relieved
| Gen. Harris brigade in the morning
and the artillery duel was continued
yesterday Saturday though no great
| damage was done.
To-day and armistice was agreed up.
| on to enable both sides to collect theil
dead and wounded.
The Beers admit having had very
heavy losses but they scout the idea
| that the British will compel them tc
| raise the seige of Ladysmith.

Late yesterday afternoon the inter-

upon by the parties. The will is adj

directed to exercise his duties as cura-

peal, and the entire matter is compro-
missed.
The contestant was Cornelia Camp

test was based upon the claim that de-

OF the Defunct Refunding Commit
tee-UnusuaI Reticence.
The members of the Council Re-
funding Committee, who assembled
Monday night early for post mortem
discussion, appear very reticent con-
corning what transpired at the meet
ing.
The Intelligencer said yesterday that
one member stated that it will be nee,
essary to lay a special levy of 81 cents
to cover the $4,000 of compromise
bonds. the alternative being the rat
.fication of another ordinance which it
was proposed to submit to the voters.
A Register reporter yesterday made
an effort to learn who made the sug-
gestion that special levy of 81 cents
be laid. All the members vi the COM
mittee were seen, and the nearest ap-
proach to an admission came from Mr..
Chew, who said: Il was not the only
one"
ut will require levy of SO cents
