Lord Roberts last dispatch shows
that the salient points on both wings
of Gen. Botha's position have been
carried in Buffers advance. The
troops occupied Machadodorp. Presi-
dent kruger's most recent capital, on
Tuesday. The Beers evacuated this
place with great precipitation, but
this was probably due to knowledge
OF French's movements.
The British cavalry general had
worked right around the north of the
Boer lines. and was almost opposite
Buffers position and a few miles away
from MIN at Elandsfontein. Thus. UNI
less the Beers had decamped hastily,
they would have found themselves
