London. May ia British column
5000 strong has arrived at Vryburg,
100 miles from Mafeking. 1t reached
there Thursday, and though har-
rassed by the Beers, is pushing swift
VrybCrg, at Taungs, it Gen. Hunters
main body, moving slowly and con-
tending with considerable forces. The
pick of his mounted men are 5000
who are going without wheeled trans
port and at q rate that may possibly
bring them to Mafeking on Monday
or Tuesday next.
Lord Roberts narrative closes with
Thursday evening, but he continued
his march yesterday toward Kroon-
stad. twenty miles distant, and by
this time he must know whether the
Beers intend to fight. Mr.. Winston
Churchill says there were only 1000
Beers who opposed the British at
Zand river. Another estimate is that
6.OOO Beers with six guns made a
rear guard action while many other
thousands with conveys retired with
out firing a shot. President Steyn
and a council of the leaders Of sew
eral thousand Free Staters in the
Ladybrand and Ficksburg district de-
termined to submit to the men the
question Of
Continuing the War
or not at a great open air meeting.
The fighting men decided to fight on.
Steyn, who appears to be in active
command, began to advance toward
the British and came into contact on
Thursday with Campbell's brigade
and Brabant's horse twenty miles
northeast of Thaba N'Chu. A smart
engagement ensued with no positive
success on either side except that
the Boer advance was stopped.
Gen. Rumble disposed 10000 infan-
try along a twenty-mile front in such
q way as to bar a Boer advance to-
ward Lord Roberts communications.
With the exception of Brabant's colon
ials. Gen. Rumble has no horsemeD.
The cavalry are all with Lord Rob-
erts' advance.
According to a Pretoria telegram
Gen. Butler is moving from Eland-
slaagte in the direction of Helpmakar
and the British vanguard engaged a
Boer patrol Of Italians on Thursday.
Twelve Italians are reported as rout-
ing fifty British. The dispatch alse
says that British reconnoitering
parties have invaded the Transvaal
near Fourteen Streams, and that the
scouts on both sides met frequently.
with varying results.

Present Board.
Chicago, May 13.-The entire board
Of bishops Of the Methodist church
was declared effective yesterday by

recommendation to the general con-
ference was adopted fayoring their

the conference to-day and will ask
that the election be postponed from
Monday to Tuesday to enable the
committee to take action on other
matters pertaining to the bishopric

matters is the question concerning
the colored bishops, On which sharp
fight is anticipated. 1t required four
hours in a stormy secret session to
reach the conclusion on the retention
of the bishops, and at times there was
danger of as many as four losing
their positions on the grounds Of in
efficiency.
