REPORTED THAT THE BOERS WERE REPULSED Cape Colony [Spzcrat To Tae Examiner.) Lonvoy, Cct. 17.~-The war news is stil] in the region of surmise. There are rumors that the Boers have been repulsed at Mafeking and are attack - ing Vryburg. A Uape Town paper has a despatch from Orange River, stating that the telegraph wires have been cut between Vrysburg and Kimbe:!y audibat the Boers are taking advantage of the presence of a large gathering ofdisloyal farmers at Vrys- burg, celebrating Naetmaal, to attack the town hoping that the farmers wil! assist them against the British. The same despatch says that the British force at Kimberly is confident of its ability to held out, but urges the immediate des ~ patch of a relief force. This question of the possible rising Or farmers in the northern portions of Cape Colony is very important. Tke Daily Mail's correspondent at Coles~ burg has been erquiring regarding the maiter, and on the whole thinks the chances are against arising. Neverthe- less there is serious disloyalty and much anti-British agitation. ia these districts while the Free State Boers threaten an immediate invasion of Colesburg and Ali- wal North. TheDaily Ma‘l’s correspondent asserts that Sir Alfred Milner is worked to death, and that Capetown is surging with bitter resentment at what is called the Schreiner Cabinet's betrayal of Mafeking by its constant refusal to aend a volunteer force to its relief. On Sunday night the streets were filled with angry citizens. It was feared that rioting would occur, and the volunteers were called out.
