The Situation In Natal.

London, Jan. 20.-News OF heavy
fighting north of the Tugela river is ex-
pected any hour. 1t is the general i'm
preston that series of engagements
| will have to be fought by B1ller's forces
before Ladysmith can be relieved, and
| the result of the battle is not expected
10 be determined in one days fighting.
Butler has apparently been waiting
for Warren to carry out bis turning
movement on the Beers right before
attacking their centre, north of Pot
gieters drift. The success of Dundon-
AIDS cavalry near Acton Homes on
Wednesday indicates that Warren's
fanking operations should have been
so far completed as to allow Butler to
attack yesterday or today.
A dispatch from Spearmsn's camp
dated yesterday says that General
Warren's division started early that
day on the march to Ladysmith. This
may be premature, but it il argued that
Warren is in position to cut of the
Beers lines of communication between
Ladysmith and the Orange Free State.
some fear is expressed that Butler may
be walking into Boer trap. This sp-
prehension is based on the fact that
the Beers, though in force near the
Tugela, offered no serious opposition
to either Warren or Butler while
these generals we're transporting their
troops to the north bank. The report
that the Beers have evacuated Colenso
and withdrawn north of the river tends
TO confirm the opinion that they are
seeking to draw Butler on north OF the
river to the place at which they want
to strike him. It is asserted that there
are 5000 Beers concentrated 10 north
ern Natal. Buffers force now north of
the Tugels is estimated at between o.
900 and $4,000 men.

LCOIreepOnuence OF the Ate1anuTl6 Gaxette.
Washington, January 20.
In the Senate next week the financial
bill will again have the right of way
at each days session after the routine
and morning business is disposed o..
The republicans do not show any dis
position to take part in the discussion
Their policy is to let the opposition do
the talking, though Messrs. Allsop
aud Burrows will, in all probability,
make speeches. The Philippine quet
tiOn will be the absorbing topic during
the morning hour. Mr.. Turner, OF
Washington, will speak on it Monday,
and Mr.. Bacon, of Georgia, will speak
on his resolution next Wednesday.
On Tuesday Mr.. McEnery, of Louisiaua,
will discuss the Pritchard resolutions
relating to the proposed amendment TO
the constitution OF North Carolina. The
argent deficiency bill which came over
from the House will be promptly passed.
Mr.. Roberts of Utah will be expelled
from his seat in the House next week
on the ground Of his polygat0ous rela-
tiOns. The report OF the committee
that has been investigating his right to
seat will be presented by Chairman
Tayler on Tuesday, and it being Ques-
ton of the highest privilege, will take
precedence over all other business. Mr..
Roberts will be heard in his own be-
half and will probably occupy almost
day with his speech. The minority re.
port waspresented 10 the House today.

It is possible that the House Can
SEA up qualifications of membership
outside OF the pale of constitutional re-
quireEents and the requirements of
State and federal law. They argue that
the exclusion of Mr.. Roberts would es.
tablish precedent which may come
back to plague Congress and which will
be particularly dangerous in the hands
OF an arbitrary and fiercely partisan ma
jority. The proposition of the mino.i.
" is that Roberts be admitted to take
his seat on his prima facie right as evil
denced by his credentials, and then, if
the House shall see fit, to expel him.

cuted the case against Brigham II. Ro-
berts, today received kilograms inform

SATURDAY EVENING. JAN. 20. 1900

GERMANY will not be satisfied with
the release of her merchant ships seized
by British cruisers, but demands there
for not only satisfaction, but compensa'
ton. The truth of the proverb that no
enemy is to be despised, is now realized
by England, and she regrets that
she forgot that truth when she COM
menced her unprovoked and unneces-
ssry war upon what she supposed was
a poor and weak republic in South Al
RIGA. She also doubtless now recog-
nizes the fact that when war commences,
there is no telling what nations it may
involve.

THE WAR IN AFRICA.

General Buller's British army in Ma.
tai approached to closer quarters with
the Beers yesterday, and parts Of the
two armies are now almost near
enough to exchange rifle shots. The
British are in q long semi-circle facing
Sproen Kop, about five miles north Of
the Tugels, which is believed to be the
main Boer position west of Coenso.
General Warren has advanced five
miles on the Beers right flank and
General Lyttleton has moved two miles
nearer to their front from the south.
These movements ere taken to ind.
cate that ss soon as Wsrren's turning
movement Is completed Lyttleton will
attack from the south, probably SUP
ported by General Hildysrd's brigade.
But it ia suggested that perhaps Gen
eral Clery, who Is believed to be south
of Colenso, may attack the Boer posi-.
ton there, as many burghers have per
hsps been drawn from Colenso to rein
force the westward positions, leaving
COlenso less strongly protected.
The British ara said to be 10 entire
ignorance of the Boer plans. The talk
in General Buffers camp is that the
Beers must be trying some ruse, as
their practical surrender of the river to
the British at Potgieter's Drift seems
inexplicable on any other theory.
A dispatch from Modder river, Cape
Colony, states that General Methueu,
the British commander there, is now
in robust health" He personally d.
rected another recon noissapce.
