London, Jan. This mornings news
from Cape Town is again unsatisfac-

at MaImesbury and would have been
proclaimed in other districts, but that
the cabinet meeting called Saturday
was unable to agree as to its advisa-
bility. The vagueness of the informa-
ton concerning the movements and
position of the invaders has sent a
fresh cold fit over the cOlonists, and
Cape Town calls loudly for strong rein
forcements from England, on the
ground that the greater part Of Lord
Kitchener,s available force is employed
in protecting the lines of communion
ton and the Rand mines, the latter eX-
landing for a distance of fifty miles.
It is asserted by one Cape Town cor
respondent that unless the forces IN
Cape Colony are increased a most unde-
sirable state of affairs may result. as
the success in arms of the invaders,
however slight. might be the signal for
