London. March 1s-The War Office has re-

shal Lord Roberts. dated Bloemfontein, Sunday,
March IS:
The Guards Brigade returned yesterday from
Norvals Pont. Several burghers have laid
down their arms to General Pole-Carew at
Edenberg and elsewhere.
The officer commanding at Belmont reports
that some deserters have come in with a
Maxim, q nine FOUNDER and another gun An
other ine-pounder has been brought into
Colesberg.
The cavalry brigade has gone to Thaba Nchu
IN order TO reassure the inhabitants Of the dis
trict and to distribute copies of the procama-
ton to the people of the Free State. These
proclamations are being eagerly sought after.
Lord Methuen reached Warrenton on March
16. He was IN time to prevent the deviation
bridge from being completely destroyed and to
secure the pont on the Vaal
The English mail dispatched from here
by rail yesterday, and tomorrow the regular
railway service with Cape Town will be re-
opened
Mafeking reports that all was well on
March 6.
Lord Roberts probably ascertained from Mr.
Frazer, the Mayor of Bloemfontein, before
dispatching General Pole-Carew southwark. that
in all likelihood the railway was clear. The next
move will be to collect at Bloemfontein by rail-
way sufficient stores for the immense army
Lord Roberts will have when the Orange River
forces have Joined him.
This will probably occupy from two to three
weeks. Therefore the next important operations
may be expected in Natal.
The cavalry brigade which Lord Roberts has
sent to Thaba Nehu, thirtyfve miles east of
Bloemfonten is destined cut off some two
thousand Beers who escaping from the
southwark. The Beers reported to have de-
stroyed the railway in the neighborhood Of

General Kitchener's presence at Kimberley
was proof that some large operation was in
progress, and as the arrival Of the Royal Irish
Regiment there st. Patricks Day is men
toned incidentally in the press dispatches there
Is good reason TO believe that Colonel Peakman's
mounted force is the advance guard Of strong
infantry column which has been called up from
Belmont, De Aar and Cape Town. This col
may be confronted with several Boer COM
mandoes in crossing the Vaal at Fourteen
Streams. and It will then be barely g. quarter
Of the way from Kimberley to Mafeking. Gen
eral Roberts has troops 10 spare, and will prob
ably not take the risk Of sending a weak col
umn. especially as Mafeking can be made
base for effective turning movement on
the Boer positions at Witwatersrand Ridge. en-
tirely apart from the urgent necessity for re-
leving the garrison, which has made gallant
defence.
There is q group Of officers serving under

The British officers now in Pretoria have been
removed from the prison where Winston Church
III left them to new quarters in the outskirts Of

his change are not stated but it is evident that
General Roberts's army will have to expose a
