British Determination Strengthened
 London, March 1.-The war secre- tary, MT. Brodrick, when asked in the House of Commons to-day what steps had been taken, in view of the success of the Boers against General Methuen, to send Lord Kitchener achievements, said that 5000 yeomanry would be i'm mediately embarked, with large drafts of cavalry and infantry. Lord Kitch- ener would be given all the assistance he asked for.
 The reports from the continent that the defeat of General Methuen was fol- lowed up by another fight, also fayora- ble to the Boers, occasion some anxiety owing to the absence of news from Gen. eral Grenfells column of 1900 men, which left Klerksdorp to join General Methuen. It is thought that possibly General Delarey may have attacked Grenfell.
 Expressions of steadfastness have to- day succeeded those of humiliation which were universally heard here yes terday on the publication of the news of General Methuen's disaster. There is little disposition to minimize the in- cident, but everywhere is heard and read the determination to maintain the tradition that blows serve to strength en and stiffen British resolution.
 Lord Rosebery struck the popular note to- day in speech before the Glas- gow students. He admitted that it was heartbreaking after all the expenditure of life, time and money but added:
 Tt will not dishearten us. We have got to see this thing through We must take the blows which fortune deals us with equanimity, showing our selves worthy of better fortune
 Lord Rosebery expressed the hope that more prosperous times were In store, and that in the future Cit would be our proud memory that when our country passed through the storm we did not for moment finch and were not for an instant dismayed"

 i The sad news of the suicide of Cap tain Frederick Striby at the block. SS2 | State street, near Humphrey street, announced in our yesterdays issue, was
