London. Dec. 2S.-3 A. M.-The latest
that Lord Kitchener has succeeded in
holding the invading Beers in check.
But he has not yet been successful in
eXpelling them from Cape Colony while
small commands continue to display
astonishing daring and activity over
an immensely wide field.
1t is questionable whether his proc
lamation will have much effect until
Gen. De Wet has been captured. The
Beers are likely to regard it as a sign
of weakness and to have wholesome
dread of De Vets vengeance if they
surrender. The proclamation is ap-
proved by the party at home that ia
