DUBLIN. April ALI Dublin, and, i'm
truth, all Ireland, is on the qui vive in an
ticipation of the Queens coming. Crowds
are pouring in from all points, and it is
estimated that the normal population of
Duolin-about 36O.0OO-will by Wednesday
have swollen to 100000. Rooms are at
premium. From every town come throngs
anxious to share in the gayety that now
promises to be unmarried. From Belfast
alone 10000 are expected.
BY the exercise of the greatest possible
tact the government officials have prac-
tically destroyed sectional feeling. and

To brighten Free stater..

LONDON, April 3-The Bloemfontein
correspondent of the Times. Telegram phing
Sunday with reference to the capture of
the convoy, says: 1.-The whole affair was
flash intended to frighten Free Staters
who were desirous of surrendering to Lord
Roberts. When General Colville arrived,
although he was almost destitute of
mounted men and had marched eighteen
miles, he determined TO turn the river,
crossing at some point lower down than
that occupied by the enemy. Accordingly
General Smith-Dorrien's brigade. including
the Canadians, attempted another drift.
which turned the enemy's original posi-
ton. For some reason Lieutenant Colonel
Flints artillery was detached at o'clock
to the right, where il remained for a con-
siderable period. Smelling at 5000 yards
range three of the enemys guns that were
placed I'm the open in the vicinity of Col.
Broadwood's encampment. Consequently
large force of Beers visible on the far
side of the Modder escaped punishment and
retired slowly as our infantry advanced.
Finally our guns took up a position on
rising ground between the two brigades.

the foot of some hills lying between the

the arrival of General Frenchs cavalry.

BUSHMAN'S KOP. April 1.-The Beers
who were hidden i'm the spruit when the
British guns were captured yesterday
were commanded by Reichman. German
American. The Beers retired this morning,
when they discovered the British scouts
leaving two Dutch military attaches. one
of them dangerously wounded, in the
hands OF the British. All the wounded are
doing well. Everyone agrees that but for
Colonel Broadwood's splendid handling of
his troops not a member of the force would
have escaped. The Beers are still holding
the water works and the line of hills be-
hind them.
Following the scouts of General French's
cavalry division TO the scene of battle this
correspondent witnessed one of the most
terrible spectacles of the war Horses lay
stiffened in the various attitudes of sudden
death. and mingled among them were
CHASTITY human bodies. with the wrecks of
wagons and food and forage scattered
wide Everything told of terrible tale of
surprise and carnage.
IL would be impossible to conceive any,
thing more ingenious than the Boer trap,
and the only wonder Is that a single man
escaped On crossing the spruit where the
ground rises Immediately toward a grassy
Knoll, with stony slopes facing the drift,
one came upon an incIosure from which it
was possible to fire over the drift. At this
point the spruit makes circular bend.
while the south embankment, which is pro-
tected by the partly constructed railway
embankment. enabled the enemy to pour i'm
a CALLING fire on both sides as well as
double tier of fire in front. When the con-
voy was first attacked "A scene of frightful
confusion followed. The mules stampeded
and the wagons were overturned. while the
concealed enemy poured I'm a deadly fire.
When the first battery appeared the
Beers seemed undesirous of continuing tho
slaughter and called on the British TO sur
render. At this moment. however, B Bat
terry. which was escaping from the rear of
the convoy under heavy fire. wheeled into
action and began shelling the Boers with
the four remaining guns. The Beers con-
fess that this battery accounted for five
killed and nine wounded OF their losses.
Early IN the afternoon the Beers collected
about the convoy. began removing the guns
and wagons and permitted the collection
of British dead and wounded. Our actual
casualties were less than had been ex-
pected.
Despite this regrettabe incident IL Is
fmpossibIe not 10 admire the gallant man
ner In which the little force was able To
extricste itself from an almost hopeless
position.
