BOERS FOOLED THE BRITISH.
GOT AWAY IN GOOD ORDER,
Beers Abandon Their Positions Only
to Take Up Stronger Ones in other
PIaces--They Slipped Away From
French-Wounded Are Returning.

London, May 1.-The latest news from
the Orange Free State indicates that,
though the Beers have vacated Thaban-
chu, they have only done so in order to
occupy stronger positions.
On Sunday, April 20, General Dewet
made an effort to turn French's eastern
flank, which was only foiled by the cav
airy after vigorous maneuvers. The Beers
hold the ridges to the eastward, whence
they will probably fall back when the
pressure of superior numbers increases.
The British casualties sustained during
the Thabanchu fighting were slight.
General French's object, now that all
chances of catching the main body of the
burghers has disappeared, is to harass
the Beers and prevent any well-orgauized
retreat.

Ottawa, Ont, April 30.-Although two
days have passed since the confiagration
which practically wiped the city of Hull
out of existence and devastated large
part of the city of Ottawa, there is yea
no means of knowing the exact amount
OF the loss or the insurance. The total
loss is still conservatively placed at about
Sl5,000,O00. E. B. Eddy is still the heav-
lest loser in property, and has only $780,
600 insurance. One estimate gives the in
surance loss as follows: In the British
companies, $2,5OO,OOO. American CON-
panies, 81 100000 total, $5,000,000. 1t
will be some days, however before any
accurate figures can be had.
