SMALDEEL N BRITISH HANDS.
BOERS RETIRING ,NORTHwARD AND DE
STROYING BRIDGES

Smaldeel, May 6.-The movement that cu-
minated in the capture Of Winburg and Sn1aldeel
was part Of a great general movement extending
from General Hunter on the west TO General
Rumble on the east. Lord Roberts's adnnira BILE
strategy resulted in placing everywhere five
British TO one Boer Out of what appeared to be
the tnextricable confusion of divisions and bri-
gades order was quickly evolved and the Beers
were compelled TO meet Lord Roberts under un-
favorable conditions.
What is more important is that the British are
now able TO wait. Their front and strong posi-
tions are safe in the knowledge that their flank
ing columns will advance and outiank the
Beers.
Yesterday the Beers held a really strong posi-
ton, from which, earlier in the campaign, they
could only have been forced by hard fighting.
General Hamilton's arrival at Winburg. al
though not directly outfanking the Beers, made
their position extremely uncomfortable. General
Hutton's movement On the left was even more
successful than first ina gineG.
Forty Beers were killed. The march to-day
was short. but General Pole-Carew's division has
marched ffty-eieht miles in four days
General fuckers division is marching the
British left to-day and General MaxwelFs bri-
gade will be able TO cross the river before night
Lord Roberts has been strict in his exarina-
ton Of the farms. with the result of disclosing
the fact that nearly every house is a miniature
arsenal. Mausers, Martins and abundant
rnunition being found If these had not been
discovered the army would be leaving in its
rear the material in men and arms for a danger
Gus movement among tire inhabitants.
All along the railway the culverts wherever Of
any size, have been destroyed. but the engineers
hope TO make \ turning movement in some cases,
and in others they will fill up the gaps. Three Of
the four spans Of the Vet River bridge have
been utterly destroyed. and it VIII be necessary
10 make a temporary line down the river bed,
at the Modder.
Reports have come in this after'-son showing
that more culverts and bridges are being de-
stroyed northward. Among the latter IS one over
the Zaud River
The British arrived at Smaldeel without oppo-
sition The Beers last train left late Saturday
night Their rear guard remains behind kopjes
ten miles distant. There is much railway ma
teriaL forage and corn here 1t is stated that the
Beers are retreating toward Kroonstad.
