Lord Roberts sends Force to Rescue

London. April 14.-What gloom there
has been In London during the last few
days has beer chiefly due to the situa-
tion OF Col. Dalgety's forces of colonials
at Wepener and to the fear that down
on the Basutoland border We're to be
re-enacted the tragic scenes attending
the seige OF Aiafeking, Kimberley and
Ladysmith. What Joy is in London to-.
night is chiefly due to the knowledge
that Lord Roberts is sending strong re-
leif to Wepener, and that the colonials
are holding their own and infiicting loss
on the Beors.
The war Office last evening gave out
the following dispatch from Lord Rob-.
erts: 'Bloemfontein. April 13, 1870 p.
M: The enemy's movements south have
been checked. Wepener is till surround
ed. but the little garrison is holding out
well. Troops are being moved to their
assistance. The health OF the troops is
good and the climate perfection
The dispatch Of the; commander-in-
chief is vague. but the British find the
y vagueness OF "Bobs' somewhat reassur-
y Ing. for It is an axiom popularity ac-
cepted that with Roberts and Kitchener
reticence precedes action. Evidently
+ Lord Roberts has been able to so dis
& pose the British troops as to cause the
Boer commandos to substitute policy
OF caution for one OF bold aggressive
ness. n
Late dispatches from Wepener indi-
cate that the fighting there has been
extremely fierce. To the north the
burghers have lost the use Of four of
their guns and have lost another by
capture, four other commandos also
having been put out of action.
They are said to be in such straights
that 1t has become necessary to summon
the little commando at RouXville to
their assistance. Apart from all other
considerations Wepener Is too near the
Basuto border for British comfort and
the uneasiness felt here lest the natives
become entangled is not lessened by the
report that a large force of Basutos is
\ gathered near the border to watch the
{course of events.
