British reinforcements in an r event cannot reach Parban before the end of next waek. . The news that Colenso has been evac uated is arousing fear that trie Conti nental etatements of the second serious defeat of General White may prove true. It ii a significant fact that the war office does not say when Colenso was evacuat The statement which emanated Thurs day from Or. Leyde, diplomatic repre sentative of the Transvaal, who is locat ed at Brussels, that the Boers had oc cupied Colenso was possibly tree. There is much apprehension that the war office is suppressing bad news. TERRIBLE ARTILLERY DUEL. Boers Open Fire on Ladysmith, and the British Respond Warmly. Lauysmith, Nov. , 10 a. m.

R. J. and J. J. Jennings Acquitted in the United States Court at Portland. K. J.aod.J. J. Jc'ioiog?; operating mining property in the Bohemia district known as the Helen eroup, were ac quitted in the I"; i:ed Slates district court yesterday of the charge of resisting an attempt to make a survey thereon. C. M. Collier, claiming to be a United States depaty mineral surveyor, was the complainicg witness. Judge Bellinger, in passing upon the caee, held lhat it waa necessary in order to make a sur vey of mineral claims thus being litigat ed, and in the peaceable, and, to all in tents, lawful pjieesion of a parly, to ob tain an order of the court in whiih the case was pending for trial of litlo there to. It appeared :n tLe hearing that Jen nings brothers have been iu the peace1 able possession of the Helena group for over three years, expendihg during that time the turn of (25,000 in running drifts and I uildiog a stamp mill. A man named Werner raised the claim of prior location, and sent C. M. Collier to make the survey, without procuring any order from the court to have the same done. Jennings object! to anv survey, claimiug the legal title to the property. Collier left til', cams before the United States grand jury in Portland and had Jennings t ro'.heia indicted for ordering him to desi-t. The court's acquital was upon the ground that the surveyor had no order Iron the tribunal at Roseburg, where the case o.' ownership was pend ing to perform the work, which placed Collier in the I igh: of a trespaEeer. It also appeared during the period of three years the Jennings had possession and were improving the mine, had been ccg nizant of the fact, but had not made ad' verse claims until Ihe properly bt gan to deve'op valuable leads.
