A dispatch j from Bensberg, Cape Calony, says General French baa completely defeated the Boers and occupied Colesborg.1 The general oon tinned to keep the Boers on the move and pressed them closely Sat nxday and Sunday, giving them no time to make a prolonged stand, and when day broke he was within striking -dis- tanoe of the enemy.-.- ' i. ! J Monday night all the cavalry, artillery and infantry, the latter riding in wag ons to increasa .tha general mobility. started upon a -night, march with the bjeot of turning the Boers right. The flank operations were successful. The infantry and field batteries immediately made a feint attack upon the Boer front. and while this was proceeding the cav airy and light artillery got completely around the enemy a right oanK as ar ranged. Tbe crozram worked without hitch. The Boers were "utterly surprised, and finding their retrest threatened, fled in disorder to the eastward, leaving Ooles berg in General French's hands. The success of General French's col mn is confirmed officially, the war office this at ternoon Issuing a d Is paten from Cape Town, Monday, Jan. 1, as follows: . FrenchVOfficlal Keport. French reports at S p. m. today from Coleburir bv heliograph as follows: " 'Leaving at Bensbury, holdtng the enemy in front half of the First Buff oiks and a section of thr Koyai iiorse arti- lerv.

" Our position cut the line of retreat via the road and bridge, borne tnou- sands of Boers with two guns are re- Dorted to tw retiring toward Nerval's Point. All Remington's scouts pro ceeded toward Achtorland yesterday morning. Slight casualties, about three killed and few wounded. Details later.'" . Brief indeoendent meaaa&es from Ttensbnrz filed the evening of Jan. 1 supplemented General French's dispatch but slightlr. According to them the British were etill shelling tbe Boer position at o o'c!ockMondav evening and expected to enter Coles burg today. British Lfoasrs Small. The British losses were three men killed and seven wounded. No officers were killed or wounded. The Boers are supposed to have suffered heavily from the accuracy ox tne rjruisn ariiuery ure. General French's statement that the Boers were using a 14-pounder and Woolwhich ammunition, evidently re fers to one of the British guns captured at Storm berg. The Boers' strength in the engage ment with General: French was esti mated at from 6.000 to 7,000 men. - While the afternoon newspapers are disposed to overrate the brilliancy of General French's success, it will doubt less have a good moral effect, and, if promptly followed up, as seemsV likely from tbe fact that Remington's guides are already advancing on Achterland, it may result in securing Norvalspont bridge, thus gaining an important strategic advantage, as thence General French will probably be able to threaten Bethulie bridge, which is the main line of retreat 1 or the Boers facing General Gataore. Other official dispatches dated Jan. 1 say General Methuen'a position is un changed. . - "-Victory For Pllcher.
