A despatch from London, Wednesday mys:--â€"The Cape Town correspondent of the Daily News says that at a meet- ing of the Dutch at Starkstroom, it was resolved to as]: the Government of the Ca 3 Colony to supply them with arms, jn, igthehevent of a refusal, to apply ,, "Bilgefimng‘e Free State, '2 nu; Th’e oorregpondent adds that a mysâ€" 'terious distribution of Mauser rifles is proceeding at Steynaburg and other Kruger Demands Arbitration and Withdrawal of British Troops. ‘A despatch from London, says:â€"The Eransvaal ultimatum, which is sign- ed! by Mr. F. W. Reitz, Secretarjf of State, concludes with the following four demands: The Lord Mayor, Sir John Voce Moore, in the full robes of office, re- strained the singing and vociferous cheering while he addresaed the col- onial troops, wishing them Godspeed and expressing the interest of the country in their heroic determination 'to assist in asserting Imperial author- Ity in South Africa. Sir John Moore aaidzâ€"“I hope there will not be war, but the necessities of the moment reâ€" quire a demonstration of authority.” An inspiring scene. closed with the singing of the National Anthem, the Lord ‘Mayor leading.

"Third, that all reinforcements of troops which have arrived in South Africa since June 1, 1899, shall be. re- moved from South Africa within a reasonable time, -to be agreed upon with this Government, and with the mutual assurance and guarantee on the part of this Government that no attack upon or hostilities against any portion of the possession‘ot the British Gov- ernment shall be made by this Reâ€" public during the further negotiations within a period of time to be subse- quently agreed upon between the Gov- ernments; and this Government will, en compliance therewith, be prepared to withdraw the armed ourghers of this Republic from the borders: A Similar demonstration took place at Freachchurch street station.

This Government presses for an immediate and affirmative answer to these four questions, and earnestly re- quest Her Majesty’s Government to return an answer before or upon Wednesday, October 11, 1899, not lat- “ than 5 o’clock pam. “IL desires, finrther, to add that, in the unexpected event of; an answer not satisfactory being received by it with- in the interval, it will'withl great re- gret be compelled to regard the action of Her Majesty’s Government as a FORMAL DECLARATION OF WAR and will not hold itself responsible for the consequences thereof, and that, in the event, of any further movement of troops occurring within the above- mentioned time in a nearer direction to our borders, this Government will be compelled to regard that also as a formal declaration of war. LONDONERS CHEER THE AUSTRA- LIANS. A despatch from London says:â€" There is no mistaking the significance 015 the great manifestation combined with warm spirit of Imperial solidar- ity, that occurred in the streets of London on Tuesday morning when the New South Wales Lancers traversed the city to embark for South Afriâ€" ca. Tens of thousands assembled to do homage to the little handful of 501- diers representing the Empire’s 10y- alt‘y. ._ . . a .1 1,,,_ AL From the arrival of the squadron at Waterloo station to the entraining at Fonohurch street station tumultu- ous scenes of wild enthusiasm marked the route traversed. The bands were allowed to play nothing but “Soldiers of the Queen,m "Rule Britannia," “God Save the Queen,” in which the dense crowds joined. It is doubtful if such a. frenzied welcome was ever before witnessed in London. There was an incessant roar of cheers and song unâ€" ‘til the Mansion house, the official resi- dence of the Lord Mayor of London. Was reached. - "Fourth, that Her Majesty's troops which are now on the high seas shall not he landed in any part of South African“ 7‘1? have the honor to be respect- fully yours, He Wants an Immediate Answerâ€"The Transvaal Will Regard a Refusal as a Formal Declaration of Warâ€"Londoners Cheer the Australians.

He says:â€"â€"_. 50,000 REFUGEES IN WANT. In response to a long despatch from Sir Alfred Milner, Governor of the Cape Colony, and British High Comâ€" missioner in South Africa, setting forth the sufferings of the refugees from the Transvaal and the Orange Free State, Sir John Voce Moore, Lord May- or of London, has opened a. fund at the Mansion house for their relief. He appeals for subscriptions through the press» It is estimated that nearly 50,- 000 refugees are already at various places in Cape Colony and Nata}, and hundreds are still arriving daily, "The'weather is cold, with heavy rains and hailstorms. This pleases the Boers, as it helps on the grass for their horses.” INVASION 0F NA'TAL. A despatch from Bennett Burleigh to the London Daily Telegraph from Ladysmith, Natal, says that acclumn of Boers, numbering 3,000 men, is now at the Tugela river, inside the Natal border. Others are at Middledale farm, below Tintwa mountain. A despatch from Durban dated Thursday, 8 o’clock a.m., announces that the Boers seized Albertina station and dem ded the keys, which were delivered 0 them by the stationmasâ€" ter, who reached Ladysmith o‘n atrol- law. The excitement at Ladysmith is increasing and the troops are ready to act at a mome‘nt’ noice. a wide area. 1‘th general’s headquar- ters and the artillery camp are half a mile from Sundspruit Station, and about 10 miles from the border. In addition'to the Boer commandees a Hollander corps and an Irish corps are here; each is about 250 strong. There are two German corps, one of hhe latter, under Col. Schiel, being at the Klip river, near the Orange Free State border. The frontier is care- fully patrollpd, but by special orders "The arrangements of the camps and commissariat are rough and ready. There is little drill or discipline as un- derstood in European anmies,but the general result is quite satisfactory, each man or small mass looking after his or its own affairs. Whon the burghers first arrived there was com- f-usion owing to the delay{ in the ar- rival of the commissariat, but now there is an abundance of food and equipment. The only defect is the want of good water. “The Whole of the Pretoria comâ€" mands shifted their position to-day, and got nearer drinkable water and berttgg' grass. GREAT BRITAIN’S REPLY. Right Hon. Wm. St. Johnâ€"Brodrick, Underâ€"Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, announced in a. speech at Guildford on Tuesday night that the Government has made the only pos- sible reply to the Transvaal, namely, that- ” We are not prepared to discuss such terms." Judging from the Telegraph’s deâ€" spvatch, the Boer move apparently aims at cutting off the British northern gar- risons. They will probably be joined southward of Ladysmith by a column which is believed to be advancing from the Buffalo river.

I A despatch from Kimberley states that the artillery stationed there has vbeen out practising atadummy force |'at a range of from 2,530 to 2,900 yards. !The p‘raotice,which was witnessedvbyx 1 many spectators, among them a large § number of ladies, showed excellent re- jsults. Trees have been felled and ' cleared away in order to give the ar- ltillerymena good field for their fire. According to the same (le'spatoh, de< ifenoee have been erected in all direc- itions, and the garrison declare that 3 they are "quite ready to meet the tor- 5when he puts his head above the 1 kopje." rumour that Newcastle has been oc- cupied by the Boers is without con- firmation. » ' ' BRITISH FORCE 0N NATAL BORDER. The situation in Natal need acuse no undue alarm. r The force in the vicin- ity of Glencoe is sufficient to stop any serious invasion. It consists of five battalions of infantry, viz., the lat Leicester, 2nd Royal Dublin Fusiliers, lst Liverpool. 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, and lst Manchester Regiment, the two last named being on their road to this point. ‘ To these must be added the 5th Lancers and 18th Hussars, together with two field batteries and the 10th Mogntain Battery. Over and above these there is a force of abdut 509 volunteers. It will thus be seen that some 6,500 men, with eigh'teen guns. are available to deal with any Boer incursions . It may be difficudt to stop them destroying the line between Glenooe and the frontier. as it would not be prudent to push the Nolrval’s Point, on the Cape Colony- siqe of the Orange river. ‘ n Every‘ precautiom has been taken. at Male‘king against attack. and all the stneets are barricaded with waggcms. The Boers intend to shell the town be- fore delivering their attack. They are gaid to possesg 12 guqs. Evgry max} “So far as I am aware, the Boers possess thirty Maxims, but the Brit- ish need not fear the Boer artillery, which; has always proved a source of weakness rather than strength to the burghbra." ,A Cape Town despatch‘ reports that the Boers are now attacking Mafeking, but says that) they have beem repulsed several times. It is admitted that if the Boers make astrong attack on Vryburg‘. south of Mafeking, it cannot be withstood. ’ .An Edinburgh paper, the Scotsman, of Friday morning asserts that a battle has been engaged between General Sir George Stewart White, commanding the forces in Natal, and the Boers who entered Natal by the way of Van- Reenan’s pvass. General \Vhltie, the Scotsman says, is very sanguine of the success of the British movement. The foregoing report is considered to be correct, as late Thursday night, the War Office bad news of a British adâ€" vance from Ladysmith, and was hourly expecting further intelligence. \VRECKED AN ARMOURED TRAIN. BOERS HAVE THIRTY MAXIMS, A des‘patch from London says:â€" Hiram Stevens Maxim, chief engineer and director of the Maximâ€"Nordenfeldt Guns and Ammunition Company, Limited, in the course of an interview on Friday said; '1 he B;ers wrecked an armoured Brit. ish train north of Vryburg and than shelled. it. The train was en route from Cape Town to Mafeking. The Borers must have had acculaLe mfommaâ€" tion. of we intended movements 'of the train. Two sevenâ€"poundyer guns. which were: on the train. and; which were in- bemted to strengthen the defences at Maffitjzking, were captured by the Boers. All the. men in charge of the train, with the exception of, the engine drive/r, were captured, but no details as to casualtle‘s have been received, although one report states that fifteen soldiers were killed. The. Boers remind me Of the. people of the SouLhern States of the Amen- can Union. They are excellent marks- men, and as good fighters as can be found anywhere in the world. How- The fact that another train, having on baard. 300 women and' children, Isa flu‘gees from Mafeking, was due Ito pass Vryburg- abuot the time of the dis- aster, led to the surmise that this was the: train\ that had been) derailed. Late telegrams, however, announced that this train» had pass-end the BtOBI‘ camps and arrived at Kimberley in safety, the wrecked, train bamg the one traâ€" velling in the other direction with the gums. as stated. AfLer warmly approving armoured trains and pointing out how useful they had been to the: Americans _in the Philippines, he W§n§ on td say :‘ in Mafezking is caFrying a rifle, and; UN military authorities are confident they: will be able to repel the attack. but they lack the forrce necessary to follow the Boer retreat. The town’ 15 fairly quiet. Three Boer spies have been arrested. in the town. Some traders at Zerust with Whom, storekeepers here had contracted for large shipments of ammunition have refused to execute the orders, it hav- ing been reported to them the supplles were intended for Beers. ’ Railway communication to the southâ€" ward is practically at the mercy of the Boers, over 200 miles of the line baing‘ within easy striking distance of enterprising commandoes. Sad scenes occurred. at the railway statiom upon the departure of women and1 children by train. It is thought even shcmldl the, main line be blown up at any Point the damage can be repaired within a few hours. ' The London Daily Mail’s Sydney da- spatch snye:â€""'l'he Victorian Parlia- ment on Thursday, on motion of Sir Georgt Turner, Premier, voted a credit of £30,030 for the purpose of sending the Victorian eontingent to the Transâ€" vaal.

A’ despa'toh‘ from Vrybu‘rg, Cape Col- ony. sayszâ€"A hospital train that start- ed for Maribagu. 59 miles south of Ma.- feking. has just returned afteri an adâ€" ventimrorus journey. It had! reached a curve cm a‘ culvert 703' yards south of Maribago, and had 'jvqut slackened speed, when it was observed that the rails ahead had been upturned. .The brakes were applied, but the engine passed on to one rail partly raised and was derailed. The occupants immedi~ atgly righ‘ted the engine. ' “The railway service northward to Warrenton, 44 miles hence: wh‘ere the line crosses the Vaal river and; enters the Transvaal, has been suspended. Two passenger trains and a freight train went through here to-day. .The latter carried a thousand bags of meal consigned to the Transvaal Governâ€" ment from Cape Town. (When the train arrived at‘ Vryburg, the officials refused to deliver the meal. The Boers threatened to take it, but th'ey were too late.” 4' ‘ The despatch adds that 4,000 men are now available for the defence ofi, Kim- berley. The people are calm and can- fident. There is an unconfirmed rumour that- the Imperial forces intercepteafi a body of Transvaal Boers who were attemptâ€" ing to join the Boer [forces at Modder river, and that a heavy engagement occurred at Spytsfontein Station, south] of Kimberley. It is learned that previous to the starting of the train Maribogo tele- phoned Vryburg asking that the train be! sent mp, as all was quite safe. The operator at Vryburg recognized the voice as that of an European store clerk. In view of the subsequent re- port that the Boers were removing the rails it 1s believed the Boers compelled the clerk to speak through the tele- phone. v - At the same time it was osbseIVed‘ that: a party of Boers- were galloping into line east of the railway. but on t‘hg Cape Colony side of the border. Someâ€"of the pérsons on the train say thgy saw a cannon pointed a}: the train: The train ran back to Vryburg at full speed, the engine flying a. white flag with! a. red, cross. Picks! and shovels were seen lying about, andl the Boers apparently had been disturbed while removing the rails. Beginning next Friday, six trans- ports will leave Somthlamlpton daily. This means the despatch of over 50,- OO-J troops in six days. It would be beyond the power of any other Europ- a-an‘ oomngry, for the troops will carry with them everything necessary for a lengthy campaign. ‘ Wau- 0flice Wmns mas From Canadian ~ Cannon-s. ‘ A despatch from Ottawa says :â€"The Department of Agriculture has re; ceived a cable message frum the High Commissioner for Canada, intimating that' the War Office asks for tenders, required immediately for 850,000 pounds of compressed corned beef and mutton, chiefly in six pound tins, but twoâ€"pound and other sizes may}n be of- fered. It must be u‘nexcepitionable, quality guaranteed and date of can- ning stated. Prices should be quoted for delivefiy _at Woolwich and Cape Town, stating the earliest date for supply in each case. The nearest. Boer command’ro Vry- burg is a laagar north of Schweizer- remek, 20 miles distant and two miles inside the Transvaal. The commander sent a measage to the Vryburg rail- way station that if the deliVery of three waggon loads of meal and two Waggon loads of sugar received. a week ago Were refused, the Boers would send 600 men to take them. This morning all the goods at the station, were made up in two special trucks. A despamh from London says:â€" W'hen the ammy corps reaches South Africa the British troops there will number over 70,030 men. Many weeks will elapse, however, before this large force 'Ls at thelfront. “as not only the troops b-ut va-st quantities of stores must be conveyed acmss the Sea and then over a hundred miles into a country which will be, generally speaking, destitute of the necessaries of life. ‘ The war is expected to last until April, and it is expected; that it will cust200,000,000. The Government will ask Parliament to vote immediately a credit for $50,030,000 01‘ $75,000,000. BOERS‘ AFTER. CECIL RHODES. A despatch ‘10 the London Daily Mail from Game Town Sunday evenâ€" in'g says thalt the Boers have cut the railway at Belmont, 56 miles south of Kimberley, and also at a. point 12 miles to .the southward of Kimberley. The strong defending forpe at Mod- del‘ bridge, "which: is 24 miles south‘ of Kimberley, and between the places where the line is cut, is likely to be attapked. The Boers have seized the railway station at Spyfontein, which is near Kimberley, and fortified it with earthâ€" works. The object of their energetic operation is believed to be the cap- ture of Mr. Cecil Rhodes. The Mail’s cmrrespondent at Kimber- ley, telegraphing under date of Sat- urday, sayszâ€" ‘ .[r‘ is est'Lmated; that 35,000 Boers are now in the field, but little reliance can be placed on these figures, as there are said to be 24,000 now within the bor- ders Otf Natal.
