Tells of the First Victory of British Over
tho Beers.


London, Jan. Io-General Butler to
day cabled the war Office that Dundon
aids command Of mounted troopers on
the 18th engaged the Beers. The Beers
lost field corpet and twenty killed and
wounded besides fifteen captured. The
British loss he states at two privates
and one lieutenant killed aud one private
wounded.
A rumor on stock exchange today to
the effect that Ladysmith had been re.
lieved and General Warren had been
killed lacks confirmation either at the
war Office or by press dispatches. The
English are feeling confidence in Buffers
position. His entire force should now be
on the north side of the Tugela and a
battle should be fought today.
