TRAN SVAAL WAR ITEMS.

A dispatch of the 2Sth from South
Africa shows 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 commanders
continue to display astonishing daring
and activity over an immensely wide
field. 1t is questionable whether his
proclamation will have much effect I'M
til Gen. De Wet has been captured
The Beers are likely to regard it as a
sign of weakness and to have a whole
some dread of De Vets vengeance if
they surrender.
Lord Kitchener, according to a dis
patch from Johannesburg, has issued
a proclamation, dated Pretoria, Dec
20, announcing that burghers who
voluntarily surrender will be allowed
to live with their families in the gov
eminent laagers until such time as
guerrilla warfare has sufficiently
abated to admit of their returning in
safety to their homes. The proclama-
ton also promises that all property
and stock brought in at the time of
surrender will be respected and paid
for if requisitioned by the military
authorities.
A special from Cape Town dated the
Goth says Il squadron of Yomanry,
which had been following the Beers
from Brittstown, is reported to have
been entrapped. There were several
casualties, it is said, and the remainder
of the force was captured. Gen. Kitch-
ener has left Naauwpoort and gone
northwards. The rapid concentration
of troops in the disturbed districts
through the personal energy of Gen.
Kitchener has allayed the local I'M
easiness.
A dispatch from London dated the
Goth says that 1900 Dutch residents
have Joined the Beers in the Philips
town district alone. Energetic meas
ures have been taken to stem the in
vasion, but there is unquestionably
danger that parties Of Beers will get
through into parts of the colony and
gradually raise the whole Cape into re-
bellion.
The British war Office has begun the
promised reform of the army in SEN
sational manner. It has demanded the
resignation of Maj. Gen. Sir Henry Col
vile, commanding an infantry bril-
gade, at Giberaltar, and recently COM
nanding the 9th division of the South
Africa field force. Gen. Colville has
refused to resign.
The Beers have been very aggressive
of late. On the 27th 200 Beers attacked
small police post near Bollsburg, but
were driven off. Much damage TO min
ing machinery was done. They also
held up a train three miles west of
Pan, but were again driven off.
