PiABDiBitS, Orange Free State, Wed nesday, Feb. 81 (delayed in transmiiBlon until Buuday). " ' There was desultory firing all day long on both the north and south banks. General French advanced, in a far eas terly .direotlon, near a kopje held by a strong force of Oronje's men, reinforced by a Ladyimith contingent. At the same time General Broadwood's brigade, with battery of horse artillery, took up positions to the left and rear of the same kopje. . . - - The front of the hill was thoroughly searched by a raking flre. Suddenly the Boers bolted from every side toward General French, who headed toward the drift, shelling vigorously. A great number r escaped, but many were killed by shrapnel, about 40 were cap tared. ' 1 - After the kopje was evacuated the position was found to be wonderfully strong naturally, and to form the real key to the position in case of defense against Boer reinforcements advanolug from tbfl east. ' . ' A great deal of forage, provisions and equipment was captured, and the kopje was frequently dotted with bleed, shew ing that many wounded had been re. moved .The Boer method of removing their dead is to tie a couple of reins to the body, which Is thus dragged oft by two horsemen.at full gallop. A British surgeon who visited the Boer lines to tee the wounded found the trenches along the river full of wounded and aaar many dead. The position today Is Practically . the same. The Boers are strengthening their intrenchmcnts around the laager, but the caae is hopeless,-. The capture of the kopje has given the British a splendid position and may prevent a Boer reliev. Ing force from reaching Cronje. ''-." Everybody admires the splendid stand of the burghers; but, from a humanltarl- sn point ot view, it is considered that further resistance on the part of General Cronje will be criminal. Every Shrapnel shell finds a victim, and unless a miracle occura Cronje's force must be wiped out ur oaplured. The former result Is terrible to contemplate; but, although It would require a few davs, it would be easy to accomplUlvVfj;,vVi Pa4Bdcbxbo, Orange Free ? State, Thursday, Feb. S3 (delayed In transmis sion ttntil 8unday).-Artillery shelling continued during the earl part of last night. - AS soon as the last gun was flred the Shropshire!, who had been ' occupy Ing part of the river bed ,: since Sunday, rushed forWsrd, seized an additional 200 yards of near ground and Intrenched freah position before daybreak. - At dawn General Cronje fennd him self docked that amount of space. The Shropshire! had done excellent work under a galling flre since Sunday and they were relieved by the Gordons to day. ; :y;vj:;ifVVij''"i-&'' The Gordons crawled on their stom achs to the trenches and the Bhrepihlres crept ont of then by actually reaching over the Gordons. The shelling today was intermittent. The scene of Ihe last five days' fight Ing Is one of the prettiest plaoes in South Africa. The river at the point where General Cronje is ensconced and fighting for life resembles some parts of the Hudson river, the ground all around sloping toward the stream. General French has sent In 75 "prison. ers. A British patrol eight miles to the west discovered 80 Boers wandering away and corralled them. Already Lord Roberts has captured 400 Boers, while many dead ones have been seen. . The Boer prisoners are all depressed at the present course ot the war and they comment bitterly upon General Cronje's persistence, which they call "murder." - Quantities of cattle, aheep and trek ezen hare been captured while wandering from the Boer laager. . Sixth Day. Faardeberg, Friday, February 23 The British are gradually closlog In upon General Cronje from all sides and mak ing his position more lmpissibl than ever. ) Last night tbe Brlttih artillery poured In several rounds.

Before his death and after giving much thought to the subject, General Lawton had worked out a plan for tbe maintenance of order in the Philippines after the close of actual war. s It had been submitted to General Oils and is, presumably, the plan which will commend itself to the War Department when the time comes to replace the regu lar troops by other forces competent to preserve order.. General Lawton's Idea was to create a fores of native police, whose oScers at first in all grades and finally as condi tions improve in the npper grades alone shall all be Americans. Borne such force as this is now success fully employed - in Cuba by General Wood under the cognomen of : rursl police. Owing to the racial differences among the inhabitants of , the Philip pines, it was General Lawton's idea that there would be no difficulty in securing police who should be proof against dis loyalty in the districts, apart from those of their nativity, to which they might be assigned; ' ' Porto Rican Tariff Bill. . WaBhikotn, Feb, 19 The Bepubli' oans of the House who opposed the Porto Rioan tariff bill, as reported from the Ways and Means Committee, forced the party conference to agree to a modi oation of the bill. As modified, the1 bill will be passed'thls week. Its defeat would have been certain had the modification not been made. The objectors knew the bill could not be passed without their votes, and they made the most of their knowledge. Representative Littleueld, of Maine, whose speech in the Roberts case, placed him the ranks of the best legal orators in Congress, clinched that position by a speech; against the Porto Rican tariff Dill. Like his first effort, his last speech was made as a minority member ot his party, but that did not lessen its effective hess. -Independence of opinion is ad mired by the average man, even when it Is against bis own.
