PROCLAMATION BY KITCHENER.
The Conditions oRered to Boers Who
VIII Surrender.

LONDON, Dec. pa despatch from
Pretoria says that on December 20 Gen

which he stated that all burghers who
surrendered would be allowed TO live in
Government laagers until the cessation

LONDON. Dec 27--Accor ding to the
latest reports from the scene cf warfare
in South Africa. the British have over
taken the Boer invaders OF Cape Colony,
and there is prospect of desperate
and perhaps decisive battle between them
For some time General De Wet and his
army have eleded all of General Kitehe-
ner's men, but the British, it appears.
have at last succeeded in drawing a
Gordon of troops around the willy burgh-
ers
General Kitchener in a telegram to the
War Office reports that Generals Knox,
Barker. P1lehsr. and White are engaging
General De Vets force, which is holding
a position near Leuwkop. It is cid. how
ever. that De Wet hopes TO break through
the British lines again and proceed south
ward
General Kitchener also reports that in
Cape Colony the eastern column of the
Beers has apparently been headed OF By
the Britis.sy1roops in the neIghborhood Of
Rietpoort spruit.
The western Boer column has gone to
the north and is being pursued by two
strong British commands.
Under today's date General Kitchener
telegraphs the War of1ce as follows:
Yesterday 200 Beers attacked the
police post at Boksburg They were
driven on by the police
AT O'Clock this morning the enc
my attacked Utrecht, but were forced
10 retire.
.another party Of Beers held Up q
train near Pan, but were driven of
t.The pursuit CT the Boer forces in
KITCHENER.
The feeling IN London over the South
African situation is considerably better
Now that the British have overtaken the
elusive burghers. it is believed that they
can be forced into decisive engagement
before many days, unless. through some
clever move. De Wet manages 10 again
break through his opponents lines and
disappear into some other part of the
country, necessitating another long pur-
suit
Military experts here expect TO hear i'm
portant news from the front within a few
days. and it is understood that the War
once is confidently looking for gratifying
reports from General Kitchener.
The Cape Colony Dutch do not seem to
be as much in sympathy with the invad-
ing burghers as reported and the feeling
of alarm over a general uprising IN the
Colony appears to have subsided.
