the British successfully stormed the

trenches directly opposite the British

At O'Clock this afternoon the bat

ordnance was in constant action. Gen
eral Bat ton led his command TO the
extreme right and Colonel Kitchener
who had taken Wynnes' command,
stOrmed the center. The brigade under
Colonel Northcote attacked Railway

into the mex, while Colonel Kitchener
led his men over Railway hill, meet

The Beers remained in the trenches
from which a terrible cross-fire was
sent during fridays fight. A few Of
them escaped to the next trench and
hoisted a white flag, which they waved
vigorously. Some prisoners were tax

BURNED IN EFFIGY

long cheering thousands kept up an in
cessant roar before the Mansion House,
and all traffic in what is London S
busiest concourse ceased. An elderly
gentleman, with his silk hat on the
back Of his head and his black coat
tails flying in the wind, climbed TO the
top of a big lamp post in the middle
of the street, opposite the Mansion
House, and remained for about an hour
with his legs curled around the post
Waving his hat in one hand and a
flag in the other, he led the tumultuous
cheering for each hero of the war, and
the fierce, hOarse imprecationS against
President Kruger and President Steyn.
PandemOnium reigned.

OnStratiOn had spread TO all quarters
Of the city. and there poured in a
stream of hoodlums and fakirs, laden
down with flags: women, boys and all
sorts and conditions of people. Silk
hats flew into the air and small fights
were of frequent occurrence. The hun
dreds of policemen on the spot had
their hands full. but as long as the
enthusiasm of the crowd was only
confined TO hOrseplay, the officers did
not interfere.

ROBERTS Is MASTER.
Belief That English Reverses Are
Now at An End.

London. March 2.-Spencer Wnkin-
son in the Morning Post says: Lord
Roberts has taken the true measure of
the Beers and has thereby shown his
mastery Of what Napoleon called the
divine part of the art of war
NO doubt the chapter of British re-
verses is now closed. He would be a
bold strategist who could not now offer
TO the BOer leaders q plan OF campaign
promising ultimate success.
LORD Roberts will soon have a force
of 90, 900 men. The Beer commander in
chief can now hope for but little from

have a force of 100000.
An order has reached Woolwich for
the construction Of pa new guns from
three-pOunders to twelve-inch guns.
OF these 40 are to be naval guns. AL
ready $4,000 wOrkmen are employed at
the arsenal and 5000 more will be en-
gagged
These decisions to send out more
troops and to increase the home arma-
ment meet with universal approval.
The Beers seem to have gotten quite
away from around LadySmith without
losing a gun or their baggage. Van
reenan's Pass is only about twenty
miles from Ladysnith. The enemy had
artillery in action Tuesday, and they
utilized probably both railroads in
reTeating, sending the heavy pieces to
Pretoria and the lighter ones into the
Tree State.
Dr.. Leyds says that General Joubert
is assembling $4,000 men at Weinberg,
seventy miles northeast of Bloemfon-
TEN. Colonel AIbrecht. according to a
dispatch from Paardesberg, affirms
that the Beers have 1900 men left.

GERMANY Is WORRIED.
Fears England May Be a Worse
Neighbor Than Ever.

Berlin, March lin parliamentary
circles the concensus of opinion is that
the latest developments will make the
attainment of peace more difficult, and
will render the British, in case they
completely vanquish the Beers, more
overbearing and less pleasant neigh
bOrs than before.
Professor Del Brueck, in "Prussian
Annals, severely rebukeS German
public opinion for ultra-BOeriSm. which
is seriously endangering our friendly
relations with England" He charac-
terizes much of the German argument
hitherto advanced on the subject Of the
campaign as childish, ill-advised and
puerile." He concludes as follows, how
ever:
but the one thing necessary, Ger
many ia to prepare myself"
A well known military writer says:
There cannot be more than 40, 900
Beers in the field, Of whom the maxi
mum left for fighting is $4,000. Prob
ably both opponents are now preparing
for decisive blows"
The Kreuz Zeitung says: THE re-
naming danger for the British is a

STUPID AND INSANE.
Boer Commandments Comment On the
British Tactics.

Paardesberg, Feb. 2S.-Commandant
Albrecht describes the British strategy
up to the battle of Magersfontein as
stupid and almost insane" He says
there were only 1000 men in Mayors
fOntein trenches and that only half Of
these were engaged in actal fighting.
He praises the strategy of Lord Rob-
erts but says that the war is by no
means ended, that there are still 1000
republicans in the field.
General Cronje's surrender. accord
ing TO Albrecht, was due to a blunder
in locking up his men in a hole, in
stead of occupying kOpjes." Com
mandant Wolmarans, however, con-
siden5 it hopeless for the Beers to con-
tinue fighting in the present circum-
stances.
II is understood that some 1000 Beers
are concentrating on the British front.
The British cavalry is in touch with
them to the eastward, and skirmishing
began this morning.
