WHIP THE BRITISH. VICTORY FOR BOERS IN THE TRANSVAAL BATTLE. br.

A score or more have been killed, many wounded, urn! Dr. Jameson is a prisoner at J.Jiutmeslmrg. One of the moat impudent acts of aggression ever committed even by British arms has thus met with swift retribution. The details are meager of this inglorious finale of what was intended to be a brilliant piece of bravado, which success might justify but which failure would make a crime. All that is known is the Government messengcra, with dinpatches from London ordering Dr. Jameson to re treat to the Chartered Company's ten tory, reached Dr. Jameson Wednesd.i, morning. He pocketed the Queen's or ders, told the messenger laconically that he would attend to them, gave the command to his troops to saddle, and marched. not on the back track, but on toward Johannesburg. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon he encountered the Boers nt Krugersdorf. Then 1 wns hard fighting until sundown, and t‘> British troops suffered severely. The famous marksmanship of the Boers was no less deadly than in their gallant defense against the same enemy fifteen years ago. Twenty men, including three officer*, were killed, >nd fifty prisoners were taken before Dr. Jameson surrendered. A London dispatch says: The world

will now be overwhelmed with disavowals from everybody concerned except Dr. Jameson. Nobody will be louder In protesting their innocence than the Chartered Company and Cecil Rhodes, but nobody will believe them. Nothing will change the popular conviction that what has happened is simply the overthrow of a bold and reckless plot. The part that failed was the promised uprising of the Uitlanders in Johannesburg. The revolt there was expected to begin the day before Dr. Jameson crossed the frontier. His justification was to be: “The Boers are masDR. C. S. JAMESON, GOVERNOR GENF.RAI. OF MASHONALAND. sacreing our countrymen. Blood is thicker than water. We will march to their rescue.” Even that excuse would be sentimental rather than legal, but it would go in South Africa and it would probably go in England if Germany and other countries did make too much fuss about it. Hence the wires were cut and Dr. Jameson, with 7<X> men, dashed in at the appoint cd time to carry out their part of the plan. The faint-hearted foreigners in Johannesburg failed to begin the rebellion, and Dr. Jameson's rescue expedition be-

came a horde of lawless freebooters, in vading a friendly State. Such is the true aspei t of the situation in the eyes of Englishmen. The British Government has already disavowed everything: so has Cecil Rhodes; so has the Chartered Com pany, through its directors in London. It is by no means certain that the trouble in tho Transvaal is at an end. Britain Thursday night was given the interesting spectacle of the British eolema secretary sending a beseeching appeal to President Kruger that the Joel leniently with the wounded and ot er prisoners. The reason of this is that

great social pressure was brought to bear on Mr. Chnmberlnln to rescue n doaen nfllcere of ths guards, several noblemen’s sons and other young bloods with high connections, who are Included In Dr. Jameson’s force of Invaders.

yond which the advance guard of British trade and British rule may not go with safety to the imperial Government. Twenty years ago English dominion in South Africa extended only to latitude 30 degrees south of the equator. To-day the provisional boundary of the British South African Company’s protectorate is at latitude 10 degrees south. How this hns been accomplished the world knows. Never were irregulars in time of war given freer rein than Rhodes and Jameson and the cape colonists generally have had in the butchery of natives and the seizure of territory. The wur on poor old Lobengula, instigated and directed by this same defeated Jameson, was an unparalleled blot on nineteenth century civilization. The issue to which all the nations oi the earth are gradually awakening - whether the time has not come to forcibly prevent the extension of British doininion—has been precipitated by the rash act of Jameson, a high-handed adventurer of a type more patiently considered in the heydey of piracy than in our own time. It is inconceivable that the secretary for the colonies should not have been able to stop the South African Company’s agent. Private letters prove that the sortie was in contemplation a_inonth ago. Mr. Chamberlain's lamentations are tardy. The predicament of the imperial Gov ernment is extremely awkward. On ths one hand they have to restrain the lust and pugnacity of high-spirited colonists who have never feared to speak of ths slenderness of the ties by which they are bound to the parent State. On the other hand, they face a brave people and tint possibility of European complications. Let no one imagine the Boers will not fight. The English are disposed to discredit their courage, but they showed steadiness and daring at die Drakensberg Pass and on the height of Spitzkop, and in these battles as elsewhere their marvelous riflemen (totted the English calmly and accurately. The feeling o( Africa is with them. In their rebellion they had the sympathy of the Orangs State, and it would not require much ts
