As Lord IlobertH, advancing along the
railway, and General Hamilton, twenty
rnilea to the enst, threatened the two

surprising to hear that they had also
evacuated Wlnhurg. General Hamilton's
advance will prevent the Boer forces in
uie direction of 'Ihabanehu joining their
main army near Winbnrg. General
Itundle on Saturday had arrived' in pur
suit of the Boors several miles north of
tho Thnbanchu, compelling the Boers to
retire in un easterly direction. A Boer
account of tho capture of Brandfort says :
"Tho Federal forces, although weak iu
numbers, offered strong resiatance, but
they were forced by the overwhelming
force opposed to them to evacuate the

Washington, May 5. A special from
Springfield, 0., Bays:
W. S. Thomas, chairman of the Dem
ocratic state central committee, states
that John K. McLean has deserted his
brother-in-law, Admiral Dewey, aod
jumped into the front seat of Jiryan'e
band wagon. McLean hue authorized
thu state convention, and has abandoned
all thought oi having tie time when it
will best suit Dewey's interests. Chair
man Thomas Btated further that there
was no possible room for misconstrue
lion of McLean's action, declaring that
it meant that tho Dewey candidacy,
which haB fallen flat the country over,
is to be gradua'ly abandoned. The plan
is to let the people gradually forget the
matter.

at Windsorton by Barton's brigade,
with whom is General Hunter, com
manding the division. The Boors have
evacuated Windsorton and Kildam.
They are trekking northward and are
fighting for all thoy are worth. Barton
is hanging on to their rear and shield

midnight, but at that hour the war
office Btated that no further intelligence
had been received of Hunter's column,

come during the night.
A dispatch from Thabanchu, dated
May 4, Bays the situation is practically
unchanged, the Boers holding their
position and sending occasional shells
into the British camp. From the top of
Thabanchu Hill one can eee over the
Boer camp. The country, through which
a number of Boers are trekking, is ex
ceedingly difficult. It is learned that
the Boers are trying to draw supplies
from the Ladybrand district. The
Seventeenth brigade has moved four
miles south, presumably to assist Gen
eral Brabant if necessary.
A dispatch from Aliwal North, dated
May 5, says :
"Three hundred captured cattle and
horses were brought in last night. The
wounded are being gradually moved
here from Hafeteng."
A dispatch from Cape Town says:
"The general feeling here, iu which
official circles participate, is that Lord
Roberta' advance toward Pretoria will
be rapid. The Boer prisoners do not
anticipate that any effective resistance
will be encountered."
Anxiety is felt regarding the fate of
Mr. Begbie, who has been arrested in
connection with the blowing up of the
shell factory. Consul Hay ia watching
the accused man's interests.
ltocr Lfft 13 Dead un Field.
Waisrenton, Suuday, May 0. Yes
terday General Barton drove from 2000
to 3000 Boers from hilly positions at
Rooidan, where they awaited them.
They retreated after stiff fighting, leaving
a number of dead on the field. The
British casualties were Blight. General
Barton is still pursuing.
Windsorton and Klip Dam have been
evacuated. General Paget's brigade ia
attacking the Boer position at Warren-ton.
The engagement yesterday was severe,
and lasted from 9 in the morning until 4
in the afternoon. More than once the
British infantry were obliged to engage
tho Boers at close quarters, and the
Boers only retired when their retreat
was nearly cut off. The British losses
were five killed and twenty-five wounded,
mostly Welsh Fusiliers. The British
took a batch of prisoners, including the
Swedish ambulance, which they allowed
to return. The Boers in their hurry left
thirteen dead.
Today General Paget made a strong
demonstration against the Boer position,
east of the ridge, thereby preventing
Boer reinforcements going to assist iu
checking General Barton's advance.
