Masext, Basutoland, April 21, (evening) —Four Boer guns have been hard at work all day on Colonel Dalgety’s position. asthe British guns have replied at inter- vals. The Boers are divided into three divi- sions,—two being in positions to repel the relief columns, the dietant roar of whose artillery is audible. General Brabant’s relief force is report~ ed to be today in the neighborhood of Bt -hman’s Kop, twenty miles from Wep~ en Mavseru, April 22, (Sunday)—General Brabant’s advance guard reached Bush man’s Kop last evening. OPINION IN LONDON. Lonpox, April 23, 5a. m.—lIt is quite probable that by this time General Rundle has fought a decisive battle with the Boers. He intrenched himself on Satur-~ day to await the arrival of General Camp- bell with the 16th brigade. That commander arrived on Saturday evening, and news may therefore be ex- pected at any moment. Still it is imposeible to ascertain the positicn of affairs at Bloemfotein or to leatn when the long expected advance northward will begin. The despatches are in conflict regarding be state of preparations. For instance, the Bloemfontein correspondent of the Chronicle eaye that the troops have been supplied with wiater clothing and that the Modder River has fallen sufficiently to permit the cavalry tocross. The Stand- ard’s report says almost the exact opposite, The present indications,however, point to atill further day. BOGUS AMBULANCE CORPS.
