Loyal Dutch Protest.

London, March ga news agency
dispatch from Ladysmith. dated March
"a. says that Gen. Roberts proclama-
ton, as 1t is understood. dissatisfies the
loyal Dutch because it is taken TO mean
that Gen. Roberts has morally pledged
himself TO protect on the termination OF
the war the lives and property or
rebels who lay down their arms and re-
turn 10 their homes.
Gen. Roberts proclamation accuses
the Free State government of being
guilty of wanton and unjustifiable in
vasion OF British territory. 1t says that
the British government believes that
the responsibility for this rests wholly
with the people of the Orange Free
State, to. understand that 1t wishes
them no ILL., and so far as Is compatible
with successful conduct Of the war and
the reestablishment Of peace, it is
anxious to preserve them from the evils
brought upon them by che wrongful
action OF their government. The above
passage is probably what the Nata-
liaDs, Kimberleyites and others in
South Africa protest against as being
too lenient.

London. I:45 p. m. March 26.-The
continued lack OF aggressive movement
on the part of the. Britis~ is best ex-
planned in a dispatch from Bloemfon-
Eeln. dated Sunday, March 20. and pub
lished in the second edition of the
Times today. 1t says:
THE conditions existing in the oc-
cupied territory render imperative the
somewhat prolonged halt at Bloem-
fontein. 1t is necessary that the proc
lamation should have time TO make it
self felt. 1t is declared that danger OF
annoyance TO the line of communica-
tion may be apprehended unless the
territory behind the advancing forces
is rendered absolutely secure. The ac-
curacy OF the view is proved by the
fact OF the enemy's breaking up into
isolated groups, such as that which at
tackled the guards officers Friday.
