Or Aaaoelatrd l'reaa In tha Journal
London, July lil. Lord Itoberts ro-
poats to tho war pfllco, under dato of
Pretoria, July 12, as follews:
"Tho enemy, having failed in tholi
attack upon our right rear, ns men
tioned in my tolegrnm of July 0, marion
detormontlonod attack upon , our right
flank, today, and, I regret to say, suc
ceeded in capturing Nltrnl'a Neck.which
was garrisoned by a squadron of tho
Scots Guards, with two guns of n bat
tory of tho Koyal Artillery and flo
companies of tho Lincolnshire ltegl
ment.
Tho enemy attacked In superior nutn
bors ut dawn, and, selling tho hills com
manding tlio Nok, brought a heavy gun
flro to bear upon tho small garrison.
Nltral's Nek Is about 18 miles from hero,
near where the rood crosses tboCrocodllo
River. It was held by us In order to
maintain road and telegraphic coinmun
Icntlou'wlth Hustonborg.
"Tho fighting laBtcd, uioroor lees,
throughout tho dny, and immodiatoty on
receiving Information this evening of tbo
onotny'a strength, I dispatched relnforco
ments from hero under Colonel Qodfro,
of tl o King's Own Scotcli Bordorers.
Before, however, they renched tho spot,
tho garrison had been overpowered, tho
guns and tho greater portion of the
squadron of tho Grays had beon cap
tured, owing to tho horses boing shet:
also about ninety men of tho Lincoln
shire Hegiment. A list of tho casualties
has not beon recolved, but I think they
uro heavy.
Detail nro now nt band regarding tlio
(! stor to tho Lincolnshire Itcalment.
Wednesday. It appears that Hvo com
panies wero ordored to proceed nnd hold
tho pass through Magnlosburg. In tho
neighborhood of Daspoort Fort. Thoy
arrived at tho pass in tho aftornoon,
whore throo companies, with two guns,
took up a position nnd camped for tho
night, leaving two companies on n plain
south of the pass.
Tho eastern hill was rugged, rocky and
Inaccessible, but further east apparently
npproaclmblo from tho main rldgo. At
daybreak yostordaynll (he Boers apear-
od on thoeastoru kopje ami opened n I
heavy lire. Ccnfuslon oiibiied. Tlio
Colonel ordored tho men to tnku up a
kopjo w est of tho gap, From th Is point
a hot fire ensued during tho entire day.
Tho guns under tho escort of the
Scots, placed In advuuco from tho main
body, wore captured, nf tern stout resis
tance. Nearly every man was killed
ot wounded. A maxim gun was brought
Into action early in tho day. Tho lire
was too hot and tho men were llually '
forced to retire. A sergeant, aided by '
(oven volunteers, saved tlio gnu. There '
was a continuous flro all along tho lino, i
tempt to surround or recapture Pretoria,
with so much success that In tho region
which was supposed to bo pacified, and
in which no attack was expected, thoy
succeeiiea in Indicting a serious dofeat
and capturing two guns nnd somo 200
men.
It is evident that General Botha has
considernblo force, seeing that ho Is nblo
to press Lord Boborta' lines nt hnlf a
dozon points around Pretoria, from tho
Springs to tho eouthost of tho city
northward to Mlddleburg nnd Dnrdo
poort and thonco southward to Nltral's
Nek nnd Krugersdorf.
Lord Roberts omits to glvo tho iinmo
of tho commander concerned, giving rlso
to tlio belief thnt worso remains to bo
told. Even If tlio mishap bo not more
gravo than his Information at prcsont
Implies, It proves thnt tho situation Is
still serious, nnd that there Is no possi
bility of nny troops being spared from
South Africa for China, but on tho con
trary, it will still take n long tlmo to
clenr tho country of tho Boors.
