Roberts. London, Feb 16.?The news; that Roberts had succeeded in pushing Gen French's force for-j ward and has relieved Kimberley reached the war otlice at 4:02 to* day. The date of Robert's dispatch shows that he has captured the Boer's stronghold at Jacobs* dal also. Robert's movement is one of the military wonders of the world. He only started on the road to Kimberley last Saturday. Roberts is being praised to the skies, Kitchener and French are not forgetten as it is believed the former organized the forces. French's cavalry leaders made a most brilliant dash. The news of the relief comes like a ray of sunshine out of a I l- ? * - " (iri'k ciouu. 1'ublic rejoicings are widespread and unrestrained. It has hten estimated that a hell of common size whose sound would penetrate a distance of throe to five miles on shore, could, if xuhmerjred in the sea, he heard a distance of over 00 miles.

Flying Forces Forced to Face the Music?Facts of the War Hero and There. Jucohdat, Feb 17.-Kelly-Kenny overtook Cronje's rear guard this morning. A battle is now imminent. Cronje had to stop to protect his transportation. Kitchener directs Kelly Kenny's operations. Cape Town, Feb 17.?The Boers at Magersfontein are now completely hemmed in by Methuen's forces at Modder river J Roberts1 men at Klip drift and Macdonald's Highland at Koodoosberg. London, Feb 17.?A Jacobsdal dispatch dated yesterday says af ter Ine Sixth division evacuated .laconsdal Thursday in order to move north the enemy reoccopied the place. The Fifteenth brigade, including the London Imperial Volunteers, attacked and shelled the Boers. The men advancd steadily in splendid order and drove the enemy over the ridires north ward. The volunteers who had scouted to right and left showed veteran-like pluck and steadiness. The Staffordshires made a bayonet charge but the enemy didn't wait. The town was recaptured in three hours. The mounted infantry is pursuing the Boers. London, Feb 17.?A dispatch from Jacobsdal dated last niirht says Cronjo with nine thousand men, all the forces surrounding Kimberly, is in full retreat with Kelly Kenny pursuing. Cronje's forces are traveling light and have n< en compelled to abandon their provision an<l am munition trains which aro tteing picked up by British cavalry. The forces of Kelly-Kenny are harraasing the Boer rear and manv nr'iMinor* am fullinr* ;?-?*.? J I " - " """'"fc the hands of the British. A dispatch from Gen Roberts to the war oflioe says Kelly-Ken ny yesterday captured seventyeight wagons with ?toros and am munition f<?r Cronje's lurce, in eluding two wagon loads of Mausers, eight boxes of shells, ten barrels of explosives und a large quantity of stores all belonging to Cronje's laager, which wus still being shelled by our artillery when Kitchener dispatched his messenger. French's troops were onthusias tically received at Kimberley. The officer* were dined at the club at night. Both column* are bow march ing north probably to effect a junction. The enemy are retiring north. The ninth division under Gen Colesville 's in rear of the sixth division The enemy so far has made no determined stand. Thousands of head of stock have been captured. Modder River, Feb 16.? Gen Cronje with a large force has retreated from the head laager on Modder river towards Bloemfontein. Kelly-Kenny is now at tacking him. Loreneo Marques, Feb 17.?A dispatch received here today from Boer sources states that the British under Buller are attacking Vaal Kranz. The telegram says the Boers are holding their own. London, Feb 17.?With Cronje in full retreat and Gen KellyKenny harassing his rear, hopes run high that a decisive action will occur if it ha* no* already tl been fought. Dispatches from li Jacobadal confirm this belief, saying that L'ronje has been obliged f to outspan, in other words to ti form a laager or camp. This t explains Kelly-Kenny's latest s dispatch referring to the shelling d J of a laager. Gen Tucker, with v ItheSevonth division, is able to t effect t ie projected junction with e the forces of Kelly Kenny, while e the Ninth, under Gen Colville, is j rapidly coming up from the rear, t Kitchener should have sufficient c forcea to decisive y engage Cronje n and prevent him reaching Bhiem d fontein with an effective force, f | Every commandinrr ceneral nlonrr the line of five hundred miles is q now engaged. s t Cronje May be Surrounded. } t London, Feb 20, 3.45 a m ?

The n sole explauutiou of the govern- * ment withholding the good news c is that confirmation and uiore do- h tails are awaited. v The Chieveley correspondent of d The Daily New-, telegraphing ^ yesterday, say a: "We now occupy ? all the hills to the right of Coleu- c so, on thin side of the Tug? lu, in p eluding Hlangwane, which the c Boers evacuated last night (Sun- c day).
