London Looking for News of NegO-
tiatiOns for Peace.

British Troops Making steady Prog
ress in Their Movement Against
the Invaders-The War Office ST
lent on the South African Situation
LONDON. April 1.-THE latest ad-
vices. received by the War Office from
General Kitchener indicate that the
British troops are making steady prog
Tess in the movement against the Beers
and that the situation in South Afr.ca
is likely 70 become such within a Nv
days or weeks that the burghers WI
be compelled to make overtuTes fer
peace
General Kitchener reports to the War
Office under yesterdays date that his
columns have taken 242 prisoners and
24S rifles since Saturday and that some
burghers have come in and suTrende. ed
The steady increase in the number of
prisoners taken by the British and the
nur~ Der Of arms captured give encour-
agsInent here as it is looked upon as in
dfcatfve of thoroughly demOralized
condition among the burghers-
Although there is no additional infor-
nation concerning the alleged messages
between General Kitchener and General
Botha regarding the ending of hostili-
ties and the inferences in yesterdays
dispatches as to the probability Of ear
Iy overtures from the Boer leaders. the
matter is being generally discussed here
and it is said that surprising announce
ments are likely to emanate from Pre-
toria in the very near future
There seems to be an impression in
London that negotiations are in prog
ress with the Beers for the ending Of
the long, tedious, and costly warfare,
and that the recent budget has caused
a desire in official quarters to put an
end to the war if it is possible to do SO
without making too many sacrifices.
Even III conservative circles, II is be-
Iieved that something should be done
toward attaining this end. While it is
admitted that the burghers are disor-
ganized and scattered, they can cause
annoyance to the British forces and a
heavy expenditure Of English money for
a long time to come. unless something
occurs 10 prevail upon them TO aban-
den an apparently useless fight
The general public is looking to the
War Office for important news, and it
may come at any time, or there may be
disappointment to those who are hop
ing for udings that promise only peace
So far as is known. no promise can be
secured from official quarters that sup
ports the hope OF the cessation Of hos
Titles but the general feeling seems to
be more optimistic than for q long time
past.
