Taken by Roberts Troops In all Mny
Reach 5000.
London, Feb. 2S.-The war office this
morning received the following dispatch
from General Butler, announcing that
the Beers main POSITIONS at Peters Hill
was captured yesterday, and sixty pris-
oners taken:
Headquarters Hlandwani, February
2S.-5 a. m.-Finding that the passage
of Langewacht's Spruit was command
ed by strong intrenchments, l recon-
noitered for another passage of the Tu-
gela. One was found for me below the
cataract by Colonel Sandbach, Royal
Engineers, on February %. We COM
menced making the approach thereto,
and on February rs, finding that could
make the passage practicable, crossed
the guns and baggage back to the
south side of the Tugela, took up the
pontoon bridge on Monday night, and
relaid it at the new site, which is Just
below the point marked cataract
During all this time the troops had
been scattered, crouching under hasti-
ly constructed small stone shelters,
and exposed to CALLING shell and rifle
ire, and throughout they maintained
the most excellent spirits.
Tuesday General Barton, with two
battalions of the Sixth brigade and the
Dublin Fusiliiers, crept about mile
and a half down the banks Of the river
and assembled an almost precipice cliff
of about 500 feet, assaulted and carried
the top of Peters HILL This hill, to a
certain extent turned the enemy's left,
and the Fourth brigade, under Colonel
Norcott, and the Eleventh brigade I'M
der Colonel Kitchener commanding, the
whole under command of General War
rem, assailed the enemy's position,
which was magnificently carried by the
South Lancashire regiment about sun
set. We took about sixty prisoners and
scattered the enemy in all directions.
There seems to be still considerable
body of them left on and under Bull
Wanasmountain.
They certainly are much less than they
They certainly are much less than they
would have been were it not for the ad-
hiiaple HiaHHel III winch lne artillery
was served, especially the guns manned
by the Royal Naval force and the Ma
tai Naval volunteers"
1t is the generally accepted belief that
General Butler is determined to reach
General White this time, and though
the stages are disappointingly slow, the
people confidently await the news of
the relief of those 5000 besieged troops
General Buffers report shows that
there is urgent need of Lord Roberts
exerting every effort to still further
draw off the Beers from Natal to the
Free State. That he will do So and
quite likely is already doing so, by
upon Bloemfontein, is regard |
ed as almost certain by the military |
critics here.

That self contained statesman
who charges that Bryan and his
followers are traitors to their coun>
try, because they oppose the an>
nexation of Philippines. is staying
at home these days and is talking
from cover. He intimates that
those who oppose the policy of the
administration, if they become too
outspoken, may have to be treated
as if they were traitors. Now. if it
comes to that point that gentleman
and the government itself will have
undertaken a job greater than it
has ever tackled. There is not a
very wide difference between the
number OF votes between the two
candidates in the last election and
we believe there is less now. A
mighty big job Of discipling would
be on the hands of the administra-
ton and of Senator Davis, whom
we believe is the gentleman who
wants to undertake the job.

spectacle Of multitudes of idle
workmen wandering through this
