London, Feb 21 The war office is uu
ablu to substantiate tlio reports or the

prevent tlio public from believing the

mayor of Windsor
lluller's dispatch yesterday la gener
ally regarded ns foreshadowing tlio Junc
ture of his nnd General White's forces
today. Tlio practical relief of Ladysmlth
is retarded as duo more to Robert's
brilliant strategy in drawing off the
Boers than to Buller's numerous as
faults, and the news of a battle botween
Kitchener nnd Cronje, reinforced by a
force drawn from Ladypmlth, is expect
ed to almost pynchronlzo with the an
nouncement that Duller has reached
hisobjectivo point. Tlio accomplish
ment of tlio latter event, howover, is re
garded with greater confldenco than tlio
ability of Kitchener to thoroughly crip
ple Cronjo, for tlio Boor general has
proved himself so clover and daring In
(dipping through the British lines that
even if Roberts quickly occupied Bloom
fontcln, thcro oro fears expressed that
Cronje might still prescrvo tho effec
tiveness of his mobile force.
