THE SITUATION


London, May General Lord
Roberts is making better prog
ress than any one had dared to
hope and is meeting with success
at all points. The only news of
the actual occupatio on of Winburg
is the incidental reference to it
in the dispatch from Vet river,
describing Gen. Pole Carew's
operations, but as the latest
news of Gen. Hamilton's opera
tions dated Saturday morning,
was that he was then preparing
to force the difficult passage over
Little Vet river on the BlOem-
fontein- Winburg road, there can
be no doubt that the news of the
occupation is correct.
The Beers, following their Gus
tomary practice, had evacuated
their positions on the Vet river
during Saturday night. AS Lord
Roberts, advancing along the
railway, and Gen. Hamilton,
twenty miles to the east, threat
ened the two wings of the Boer
forces, it would not be surpris-
ing to hear that they had also
evacuated Winburg.
I Gen. Hamilton's advance will
prevent the Boer forces in the
direction of Thabanchu joining
their main army near Winburg.
Gen. Rumble on Saturday had
arrived in pursuit of the Beers
seven miles north of Thabanchu
compelling the Beers to retire
in au easterly direction.
A Boer account of the capture
of Brandfort says:
"The federal forces, although
weak in numbers, offered strong
resistance, but they were forced
by the overwhelming numbers
opposed to them to evacuate.
Gen. Hunters progress, al
though slow, is satisfactory. Th'
idea that the relief of Mafekins
is in sight, however, appears Il
have been premature, as th'
Beers in that quarter are still
stoutly resisting the British ad
: vance.
According to a dispatch to th'
Daily Mail from Cape Town,
special EXPEDITION TO the west
ward lef. Kimberley few day
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1900-05-07

ago and will endeavor to relieve
Mafeking, while Gen. Hunter
amp Lord Methuen are operating
on either side of the Vaal river
in conjunction with Lord Roberts
army.
From Lorenzo Marques come
various rumOrs that Col. Plumer
has been reinforced and is again
advancing toward Mafeking.
Another report says that Mafe
king has been relieved and Gen.
Lommer, with 5000 Beers, capt
ured at Fourteen Streams.
Women have been placed in
the government offices in the
Transvaal in order to relieve the
burghers for active service.
Two New South Wales lancers,
who escaped from Waterfall pris-
on, have arrived at Delagoa Bay
after a dangerous journey.
The Volksraad will meet in
Pretoria today. Probably the
sitting will be memorable.
The johannesburg shell facto-
ry has resumed work, with Aus
