surrender of all German military
forces in German Southwest Africa.

| ditionally following the issuance of
Gen. Botha's ultimatum, which ex-
pired at 5 o'clock Thursday evening.
With the exception Of the neces-
sary army of occupation the citizen
army will be brought home as quick
ly as possible.
CATER suppressing the rebellian
against British authority in the I'm
ion of South Africa Gen. Botha took
command Of British operations
against German Southwest Africa
and headed an invasion Of that terri
tory late in February. He captured
Olymbingue May 4, the important
railway junction Of KaribiJ May 6,
and Wind Hoek, capital Of the Ger
man territory, May 13. Martial law
was proclaimed throughout the con-
quered territory.

ca and Cape Colony, extending east
ward to the British sphere Its area
