MODDER RIVER, Tuesday, Jan 16.-
There was brisk exchange of shells this
morning, the Beers returning our fire for
the first time in several days. The Brit
1sh intrenchments are being continually
strengthened and extended. The prelim-
mary bridge is almost completed. Heavy
rains have fallen In the hills recently, and
the fords of Reit river are almost irnpas-
sable. 1t is reported 1t will be necessary
to relay the rails over almost the entire
distance from Modder River to Kimber-
ley, the Beers having used the rails and
sleepers in building their fortlfications.
Stories continue to reach camp that the
Free State desires to terminate the war;
The latest report Is that a council was
recently held at Bloemfontein, at which
President Steyn and Gen. Cronje were
present 1t was then stated that unless
the British began the attack by AIN 16
the Free Staters would return home The

Thursday, says:
There was heavy firing today 1t is
believed the Beers are contesting Gen.
Buffers passage Of the Tugela Both
sides were evidently busy, as the firing Is
described as the heaviest yet heard in

The Exchange Telegraphic company has
received the following dispatch, dated
Jan. 16, from Pietermartzburg:
There is no news from the front, but
heavy firing was heard today in the d.
recuon of Frere. 1t is probable that Gen.
Butler Is engaging the enemy. A rumor
is current here that portion of the
British force is near Ladysmith."
DEFEAT OF BoERs.
RENSBERG. Cape Colony, Monday,
Jan 15.-The Beers this morning attempt
ed to rush hill held by a company Of the
Yorkshires and the New Zealanders. but
they were. repulsed at the point Of the
baycnet. The Beers had twenty-one men
killed and about fifty wounded. The hill
commands a tract of country east of the
main position of the Beers, and they de-
termined to make an attempt to seize the
heights. They advanced cautiously di-
recting their fire at a small wall held by
the Yorkshires, and compelling the latter
to keep close under cover. When the
Beers rushed the wall the Yorkshires
fixed bayonets and charged. Just at that
moment Capt. Maddocks, with small
party Of New Zealanders, came p.and the
combined force leaped over the wall and
charged straight for the enemy, who fed,
followed by whitening fire at close
range. The Beers literally tumbled over
each other in their hurry to escape, but
the persistent fire of the British inflicted
a heavy loss. Desultory firing continued
for some time, but the attack was an ut
ter failure, and the Beers retreated to
the shelter Of the small kopjes at the
base of the hill.

NEW PEACE MOVEMENT.


LONDON, Jan. 17.-Even rumors are no
longer telegraphed from Natal. The I'M
preston gathered by the military experts
from this Is that no determinate brow
has been delivered by either side, as IN
such an event there would be no neces-
sity for silence.
The South African conctliation commit
tee quietly formed tn represent the peace
minority, announces itself to the country
and asks Ior the support or the pupnc.
Among the members are Lord and Lady
Coleridge Herbert Spencer, Sir Robert
Threshie Reid, George John Shaw-Le-
feyre, Stephen Gladstone, Countess or
Carlisle Robert Harrison and other no
table persons. Leonard Courtney, Union
ist member of parliament for the Bodmin
division of Cornwall, Is president OF the
committee. This movement should be
distinguished from the stop-the-war
group of extremists, Of which William
7. Stead is the most active member It's
position. as summarized Is TO wait until
some proper opportunity arrives Tor some
peaceful settlement Meanwhile IT Will
gather and distribute correct Information
and sound views. The manifesto aftirms
that "as the war was begun amid mis-
understandings on both sides paclno
settlement Is possible
There Is no indication that such an ar
rangement would be tolerated by any
considerable portion of the public Ma
tional emotion is now In state OF dls-
uuietude over the reverses to British
arms; dissatisfaction with the conduct
of military business is intense. and there
is an almost universal determination to
see the thing through.
FIVE NEW BATTERIES.
The war office has issued information
Of the formation of five new batteries.
Some idea of the army resources TO Dc
drawn upon may be gained from the fact
according to the statement Of a military
expert this morning that an old practice
howitzer at Lydd, in Kent, with which 1t
was impossible to do accurate shooting,
but which has been for some time solely
used to test shells, has been laid under
reouisition for the front. Orders have
been received at Lydd to pack this VEN
erable relic with as much dispatch as
possible for embarlation.
Seventeen more militia battalions Will
be embodied in the course of fortnight
All the regulars are now out or the couh-
try except fourteen infantry battallons
and eleven cavalry battalions. The war
office has placed an order Tor 5z,ooV'VVo
cartridges In cases.
The yeornarry committee announces
that II has accepted 5000 out Of the 10000
men which 1t wishes to raise and still
has q, 900 applicants to be examined. The
Daily Chronicle asserts that the commit
tee was goaded into this statement by the
reports that there was no hope of getting
the full number.
CURIOUS REPORTS.
The war Office has wired to counter
mand the departure from Egypt OF q
number of officers who were previously
ordered to South Africa. The Daliy
