D?TOH FARMERS
IN CAPE RISING.
A Gloomy Summary From
British View.
London, Nov 25 -The position
in Natal remains full of perplexities
which the censorship has increased
Although a division and a naif have
cow reached Durban tha?. placo is
practically powerless until supplied
with cavalry and artillery, and until
there arrive the situation wiii an
doubted!}* regain grave vvlih
three beleaguered garrisons N -.'a:
beside Kimberly and Mafeking und
no s"?tis o? succor ir; th?- immedi .:; .
fortune, it is no conder thot the oaf
look, is regard* J as distinctly g?
tonight, and that tbe most possible is
mad:4 of Gen Mathuen?a success,
st:ch as it was Teat battle decided
the story of the return of the pursu?
ing cavalry without getting in tench
with the retreating Boers, indicates
that the cavalry discovered id time
that it it had gone on it wei:ld soon
have been on the Pretoria race course
with its comrades of the Hussars
It will not surprise any one greatly
if the Boers 3re shortly again diso>v
ered in aa entrenched position near
the spot from which Gen Methuen
bas just evicted them
From co other point can even a
semblance of success bo reported
Mafeking is apparently in worse
plight than the Britishers have hither
to cared to admit and it is difficult te
see how it can be relieved for some
time to come While the (fnciai
dispatch from ircm the Boer head
laager out side Ladysmith, da?ed
Nov. 26, showed that the town was
etiii flying the Union Jack Friday,
the cheerful tone of .the message and
the evident anticipation of ike
speedy reduction cf Ladysmith is
not calculated to cheer anxious rela?
tives.
The reported silence of the Brit
?sh guns also again arouses tears of a
shotage of ammunition, and the fact
that the Boers have just placed in po
6ttion another siege gun shows that
tbey have not yet done their worst
A Cape Town dispatch received at a
tate hour tonight reports that tbe
enemy havo blown OD a railway bridge
between Rosmead Jaoctioo ced Mid
dlebarg. with the object of preventing j
ac advance from Port Elizabeth. This
was effected by a small comaarjdo, |
which, it is stated, remains io the
neighborhood Thc affect of blowing
up this bridge will tend to isolate
Naauwpoort, which was recently
reoccupied by the British and mast
delay tbe advance cf the troops just
arrived at Port Elizabeth.
Tbe gravest pr~s from Cape Town
today comes from the northern part of
the colony where, it is now evident,
numbers of Dutch faro)crs have risen
and joined the invading Free S'ate
forces it: the Herschell acd Barkly
East district?.
. A dispatch from Qaesnftown, Cape
Coioi.y, Gen. Gataere's headquarters,
announces that- "iofcr hundred colonial j
rebels, including an ex-maoi-trate ol !
Barkly East, have joined the en^my," i
at the latter place and that thc whole'
force is reported to be marchi^ oo
Dordrecht, whence it can operate ard
possibly intercept Gen Gatacre's ad
vance to reoccupy Srormberg Ju? ct>oo, i
a strategic point from which Gen.
?atacre can get io direct touch, through
the railroad, with Gen. French at
Naauwpoort and thus wirb the British
base at Da Aar
Another dispatch says <bat refugees
arriving from Qaeeosrown assert tbat
Lady grey bas been occupied hy the
Colonial farcoero and that it is feared
that there i- a eeoeral movement ia
favor of the Boers.

thuen'e advance has been received,
and the absence ol officia! detr's
regarding Iiis losses creates trie
greatest suspense, especialiy since
the publication of heavy sacriticf-s

alarm, however, is felt as to his
position, despite the evidence that
the B~e*"? intend to contest every
I foo't of the W8" It was known
j in the absence of sufficient cav
j be would be compelled to adv

j night or early dawn attacks. *
! events seem to have justified
; Boers being- decidedly aver6<
j darkness for their operations
j The fact that in the Gras

rounds proves the desperate nf
j of the fight and there is ??ttie d
j that the casualties wore heavy,
I is now known that no guns i

Meanwhile the news frota N :t

British point of view The de

that the ll ers aro re?, i ring, t :? ri t

Among minor items of news ii
j^rumor that President Kruger

j anxiety.
j Five hundred Boers attacked Kui

J the Boers were finally beaten
I with a loss of 30 killed and
j wounded. The British iost one kiii
! and one wounded The Boers su
I deniy disappeared, f >r some reasi
unknown to the British.
Despite the brighter outlook toda
the Times s in its review of tl
situation voices the anxiety felt at
says :
"The activity the Boers display
points separated by hundreds
miles, their ability to invest sever
towns, their readiness to offer batt
at Belmont and again at Gras Pa
j their widespread operations south
Orange river and their boid ar
j offensive action in Natai, -?em I
indicate numbers far ?H exceed of ot
estimation It is ciear that the mil
tary requirements were at first grea
ly underestimated, and that a sixt
division ought immediately to fc
or^oared for debarkation."
This, coming from the hither*
optimistic Times, is significant
