The event of Decoration day in Ana
conda was the game of baseball at
Mountain View park, between the Butte
and Anaconda teams. Fully 1000 people
from Anaconda alone were present. A
few came down from Buttes at noon on
the Copper City Limited, and the sur
rounding villages furnished a few adj
mirers of he game. There was but little
betting, owing to the fact that the home
team has SO far been too much for the
visitors. There is also serious complaint
that the members of the Butte team do
not stay in the city long enough to get
acquainted with the people. who claim
that 1t is no more than fair for Zach
visiting ball team to become a part of
naconda during the games here, in
stead OF playing a game and then run
ming away until the next game is called
at the end of two days, as the case may
be.

conda than any other outside point. A
great many went to Butte and several
n the coontry, but the biggest crowd
went to Deer Lodge, the city of flowers,
and the burial place of so many old-tim-
ers. who have relatives living in all parts
of the country, and particularly in Deer
Lodge valley. A few from Anaconda went
down last night and the Copper City
Limited at noon today was oaded to the
yards. while dozens Of teams

ROBERTS MOVES FORWARD
THE MARCH TO PRETORIA HAS
BEGUN.
Question of Transport Difficult One
Fearful Loss Of Horses and Oxen Has
Been Suffered.

LONDON, March 81, AIS a. m.-The
head of the army of Lord Roberts is
now about twenty-one miles north of
Bloemfontein. 1t occupies a cluster of
hills won from the Beers after a stiff
fight in which the British lost two
officers and 100 men. The Beers had
been using the kopjes as a base for
marauding bands that have been beat
ing up the country adjacent to BlOem-
fontein for supplies, driving off cattle
and forcing non-combatant Free-Stat-
ers into their ranks again The enemy
must have been in considerable force,
as Lord Roberts sent 5000 infantry and
5000 cavalry against them.
Lord Roberts progress to Pretoria
will probably consist of such forward
movements, in which Boer positions
will be attacked by portion of the
army advancing rapidly with wheel
transport, the main army coming up
as the railway is prepared. Lord Rob-
erts is stripping the forces in the mi
nor spheres of operations of their wag-
ons and transport animals in order to
hasten the advance. This Is understood
to be the reason why he recalled Lord
Methuen from Barkley West to Kim
berley. Lord Roberts has to have Me-
thuen's transport.
The reason why the hot chase was
not made after Commandant Olivier is
that Lord Roberts did not wish to wear
out the cavalry transport General
French lost 5000 horses in the relief of
Kimberley, and the pursuit of General
Cronje. Lord Roberts lost 5000 trans
port cattle at the Waterfall drift, and
it is estimated that he has lost 1000
other animals since the forward move
ment began on February 10.
The advance beyond Bloemfontein is
through a bare country and the supply
officers foresee an increasing difficulty
in providing for a great army moving
along a single track of railway, even
when the latter is working smoothly
and with ample rolling stock.
The Canadian Mounted Rifles were
part of the force that occupied Ken
hardt yesterday.
The rebellion throughout the north
west districts of Cape Colony is almost
suppressed.
LONDON. March 81, 11:45 a. m.-The
War Office has posted the following dis
patch from Lord Roberts, dated at
BloemfOntein, March 80, evening:
Reports point to the enemy's leaving
Brandfort and proceeding in a norther-
ly direction. The casualties in yester-
days engagement were more numerous
than at first reported.
"Offcers killed, 2; wounded, 8; rank
and file killed, 10 Query 19); wounded,
1885, missing, 3"
