At J.' ''incu-z- -
London', April 23. It looks now as if
the four or live thousand Boers who
hurriedly raised Ihe siege t)f Wepener

passage iuto the town, stand little risk
of being caught. . - '

ingly broken and billy, makes the use of
cavalry exceedingly difficult and favors
the rear guard tactics of the Boers, at
which they . have . previously" proved
.themselves adepts.
