COLONEL WILLIAMS" SUCCESSFUL MAHCR. INTERESTING DETAILS. Klerksdorp, I have received the following details regardir.g the march of Colonel Williams's column, which left Klerksdorp on July 27th. On the first day's march 1,200 sheep were captured at Brisfontein. The Boers sniped the column at intervals. On the 28th, at Lieuwfontein, a party of Hauler's -Scouts came in contact with 100 men, whose identity was at first doubtful. On the Scouts ap- proaching nearer they were discovered to be Boers, and ê. fight ensued. The Scouts opened fire, killing three, wounding eight, and capturing one. On the 29th a quantity of grain was destroyed at Drorejekraal, and a number of sheep captured. The Boers maintained contact with the column all <lay on the 30th,Vermaas hovering on the left flank and Visser with the enemy's convoy trekking aheao. On the 31st, near Holfontein. three wagons with Boer families and a number of cattle and r,lieep were taken. Welverdand was reached on the 1st jnst., and here six Boers were captured in a house. A Boer convoy was reported in the vicinity, and the column moved off early. It succeeded in cap- turing three wagons, at Vleiseh Kraal. The Boer <3rivers escaped, however, and endeavoured to ap- prise the convoy of the approach of the British. An exciting time ensued, which resulted in the capture of 31 wagons and carts, 34 prisoners, and 2,500 cattle and sheep. Here the column joined Lord Methuen's force and marched to Taungs, which was reached on the 8th. The prisoners, stock, and other captures were handed over to the authorities here. The return march was then begun. Wolmaranstad, which was entered on the 18th, was found deserted. From this place the New South Wales Mounted Rifles made a forced march of 25 miles, and intercepted a, Boer convoy, the whole of which, consisting of 100 wagons and .carts, thousands of sheep and cattle, with 18 prisoners, and 8,000 rounds of ammunition, was captured. J. Dutoit, formerly telegraph master .at Klerksdorp, was among the prisoners. [All the above captures were at the time re- ported by Lord Kitchener.] TRADE OF THE TRANSVAAL. Pretoria. The value of goods imported for commercial purposes into the Transvaal for the half-year ending June 30th amounted to £ 1.143.192, yielding Customs duties to the amount of £ 168.448. The notice previously issued giving permission to per- sons who had been compelled to leave the country on account of the war to register bonds on fixed property on certain conditions has now been amended so as to include all persons whatsoever, the original conditions still holding good. LOSSES OF THE IRISH REGIMENTS. Saturday's casunlity list shows that in a fight at Jaskraal (Orange River Colony), Lieuten- ant Wallis, 2nd Irish Fusiliers, was killed, and jght men of the same regiment were wounded. In the same fight the 2nd Dublin Fusiliers lost two killed and two wounded, and the 3rd King's Royal Rifles lost one killed and two wounded. In an action near Vryheid Lieutenant Coulter, 5th VictQrian Mounted Infantry, was killed. JBOER LAAGER SURPRISED. Vereeniging. Colonel Garratt's column has surprised another laager near Losberg, midway between here and Frederikstad, capturing a quantity of transport and eight prisoners. Tim Boers left three dead -on the field. Our loss was two killed and two -wounded. JOHANNESBURG AS THE NEW CAPITAL, Pretoria. The Minister of Mines and Native Affairs, the Postmaster-General, and the Directors of Uail- ways and Education are leaving Pretoria in order to establish their head olhees 111 Johannesburg. This action, combined with the fact that Lord Milner's official residence is in Johannesburg is creating alarm among the residents of Pretoria. They fear that the seat of Government is about to be removed. Many arrests have been made here recently. The men arrested are accused of being spies and of rejoining commando, surreptitiously returning and moving about like ordinary citizens and then again joining commandoes. The trial of two of them by court-martial has now begun. DR. LEYDS DEPRESSED. Brussels. Dr. LeydFl while in Paris, had long interviews with M. Delcasse,the French Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Prince Ouroussoff, the Russian Ambassador. Dr. Leyds was charged with the mission of sounding authoritative French and Russian circles in regard to the possibility of Mr. Kruger's being received by the Emperor ol Russia at Compiegne. The replies which lie received fromM.Deicasse and the Russian Ambassador .are said to have been absolutely discouraging, and Dr. Leyds returned to Brussels in a depressed. state of mind. REINFORCEMENTS. A number of telegraph employes have been «pecially enlisted for service in South Africa, and are being prepared at Aldershot. They will eventually join the Royal Engineer Telegraph Bat- talion in the Transvaal. It is intended to augment their numbers by a draft from the School of Mili-, tary Engineering at Chatham. The transport St. Andrew left the Royal Albert Docks on Saturday for the Cape with 12 officers and 492 men, consisting of drafts from the 1st and 6th Dragoons, East and West Kant and Essex Regiments. The vessel also embarked 280 horses. and will call at Queenstown for more.

Venezula has now 9,000 men massed on the Columbian frontier, and invasion appears to be *wtv a Question of days. Mr *Ritchie has called the attention of Birken* head Watch Committee to the number of crimes committed in the borough of which the per- petrators have remained undetected, and sug- gesting some improvement in the police ar- rangements. Among the crimes are the Post Office murder and robbery, and robberies at Woodside Post Office and the co-operative stores.

SATISFACTION PROGUESS. The War Office has issued the following :!espa tcii :— From Lord Kitchener to the Secretary of State for War. Residency, Pretoria, Monday. Since August 26th the columns report If Beers killed, three wounded, 212 prisoners, 12". surrenders, 194 rifles, 27.560 rounds small are 1 ammunition, IJ4 wagons, 1,700 horses, 7.50( e:i!(le. and various other stock. These number,1-, include all separately reported. I In the Eastern Transvaal no change since last report. II the Western, Methuen, Featherstonhaugh, Gilbert Hamilton, Kekewich, and Alenby are operating against Kemp west of Rustenberg, but have not yet been engaged. Elliot's column in the northern sweep from the Thabanciiu line has met but slight opposi- tion. Charles Knox's column continues to scour the country between that line and Orange- River. Lntegnn's commando, about 80 strong, has been driven north of the Orange River by French's column west of Colesberg. The situation elsewhere in Cape Colony is \111 c hall SP(t The total reduction of the Boer forces for the! mouth of August is, therefore, as follows :— Boers killed 1 rUles 718 Hoers wounded 87 Anun'tion,rnds.93,030 I)i-isotioi-s ],)04 1 NV,19()t"4 1.452 Boers surrendered 549 Horses 7.700 —- Cattle 51.500 2.340 Pom-pom captured.. 1 The total number of Boers estimated by Lord fviteheiier to be in the field 011 July 8th was! 13 500. Since that date 3,) I::J have been accounted for. leaving 9,985, but, of course, there may have been additions to the Boer strength from Cape] Colony. MORE NATIVES MURDERED BY BOERR, The following telegram from Sir. W. F. Heiy-j Hutchinson, Governor of Cape Colony, to Mr. Chamberlain has been issued from the Colonial Ollice:- September 1st. Referring to my telegram of August 9th, the magistrate at Prieska reports that on August 28th the Boers captured two unarmed scouts near Haareekloof, and shot them in cold blood. The magistrate at Riversdale reports on August 31st that the Boers burnt two houses near Mueskraal, and severely flogged two col- oured despatch-riders.

CHARGED WITH HIGH TREASON. ARREST OF DR. KRAUSE. Dr.Krause, formerly a member of the Transvaal Government, was arrested 011 Monday night at St. Ermins Hotel. London, and brought before Mr. De Rutzen at Bow Street Police Court the next morning charged under the Fugitive Offenders Act with high treason in the Transvaal.—Mr. Muir, counsel for the prosecution, said he would ash for a remand on giving evidence of arrest.— Inspector Sweeny, of New Scotland Yard, de- posed that on Saturday last a. provisional warrant was issued at that Court for the apprehension of the accused. Shortly after seven o'clock 011 Monday night, accompanied by Sergeant Gxahame and other offi- cers, he saw the prisoner at St. Erinin's Hotel, Westminster, and asked if he was Dr. Krause. He rephed,"Yos." Witness said "I have a warrant for your arrest." The accused said I am a legal man, and I know the law; let me seethe warrant." When the warrant was read, he said eliiii-ge is If I make a statement it will be used against me." He was then conveyed to New Scotland Yard, where he was charged, but made no reply. The documents found on the pri- soner and among his luggage had not yet been ex- amined. Sir George Lewis, on behalf of the accused, asked if there were any depositions against his client in support of the clitti-ge.-Mr. Muir said there was, of course, an information against him ill Cape ColollY, Ilwl the p(}li(e hel'e h:l.(l acted on telegraphic instructions received from that Colony. —Sir George Lewis, applied for bail, but Mr. Muir said there was no power to grant bail in case of high treason, and the prisoner was then rp. manded in custody for a week. TO BE TRIED IN THE TRANSVAAL. The Central News learns that so far the cable- gram intimating that a warrant had been granted in the Transvaal for the arrest of Dr. Krause on a charge of higi) treason is all the information iu the possession of the Crown. The depositions giving the specific indictment are now 011 their way to England, and are expected to be in the hands of the prosecution this week. The case is expected to be proceeded with on Tuesday next, the date to which Dr. Krause has been re- manded but this is not quite certain until the papers arrive in England. It is suggested that the proceedings may be held in camera. If the evi- dence then submitted be held to be sufficient, Dr. Krause will be taken to the Transvaal, there to undergo his trial. COUNTER-PROCLAMATION BY MYBURG. Willowmore. Commandant Myburg, with the main body of the Boer raiders, is believed to be laagered at Lang- kloof, 18 miles from Elliot. Colonel Dalgetty's posts came into contact with the enemy near Val- hock on the 1st inst, but there were no casualties. It is reported that Myburg has issued orders that all Colonials in arms taken after the 15th inst. are to be shot. According to later information Myburg and the Free Stater, Fourie, with 200 men, are near the eastern border, and detachments are raiding Elliot and searching houses for supplies. A local patrol engaged and checked Theron 12 miles south-east of Meiringspoort and 20 miles north- east of Oudtshoorn. Prisoners report that the enemy are 100 strong, and have 300 horses for Scheepers. WAR ONLY JUST BEGINNING. Pretoria. Colonel Vandeleur was killed when in the act of making his way to the armoured van to direct the defence. This gallant officer, whose loss is greatly deplored by all ranks, had succeeded in reaching the platform connecting the two car- riages. Seeing the danger to which two German women and a nurse in the second carriage were exposed, he cried out to them, Lie down." At this very moment n. bullet struck him in the chest, and he pitched forward dead. When all was over the Boers set to work to rob both living and dead. They took whatever struck their fancy from the men's kits, and as much of the stores as they could carry a way on their pack horses. They also tool' £ 1.000 in treasure. In order to cover their retreat, the Boers destroyed the railway line on either side of the spot where the derailed train lay. they left one of them said, "We came to hill, and not to get supplies. This war is only just beginning." ANOTHER MISHAP NEAR UNIONDALE. Willowmere. A patrol from Oudtshoorn, consisting of 25 men under Captain Wallis, was surprised while cross- ing a drift near Meiringspoort. Only Captain Wallis and two others returned. The remainder are missing. Captain Wallis estimates the strength of the Boers at 120. Uniondale. Thirteen men of the Oudtshoorn patrol and an j intelligence officer have been released, and have arrived here. Three were killed and four wounded. while the remainder surrendered.

LONDON CORRESPONDENCE. J The promoters of the Bill for making a light tramway through Epping Forest were so I aJannedhY the local opposition it called forth that they consented to stop short by several miles of I the Forest. There is it. lurking suspicion in the minds of the objectors, however, that the pro- moters have acted only 011 the principle that the half loaf' is better than no bread, and that when the tramway is made to its agreed upon terminus the company will begin to stimulate an agitation for carrying the line through the Forest. It will be very unfortunate if anything is done to de-j troy the beauty of this noble expanse of wood- and. The residents who have succeeded so far nay be trusted to watch the other side of the question, for the amenity of the Forest is mixed j up with the value of their own property, and the latter is, no doubt, the main consideration Anew way of obtaining Divorce Court costs has been revealed. A gentleman of'some position in Society had been co-respondent in a. divorce case, and the case was dismissed as against him. After the hearing, a heavy bill came in to him from the firm of solicitors who had conducted his case. He declined to pay, on the ground that the items were insufficiently described and the charges excessive, and he said that he intended to have 11 he bill taxed by the taxing master. Tlie solicitors promptlv delivered another bill, in which was set out the items at great length. The most striking item was "Attending you, when you admitted," out the items at great length. The most striking item was "Attending you, when you admitted," etc. Upon this the bill was promptly paid, and there was 110 appeal to the taxing master. If the items in the bill had become known in Court, I the consequences might have been distinctly un- pleasant. One by one the spots associated with the literary fife and creations of the great novelist are vanish- ing from our midst, and nowhere is this more evident than in the region of Bloomsbury and its v vii outskirts. The old Bell Inn in Holborn, in the rpiaint gallerised coachyard of which Dickens ;mce gave theatrical performances, was demolished two or three years ago to make way for a more up- to-date hut less attractive house. Tavistock House, where he lived for nearly ten years, has been levelled to the ground. Kingsgate Street, associated with memories of Sarah Gamp, is doomed. The housebreakers are now busy pulling down the old Holborn Workhouse in Gray's Inn lload, where it has long lingered as a reminder of the days of Oliver Twist, whose would-be trainer in evil, Fagin, had his den in Saffron Hill. English chivalry rose in fury at the mere rumour of wrong done to the ladies in the Gen- eral Post Office, and it is with gladness we are able to announce that the rights of woman have- it least at St. Martin's-le-Grand—been vin- dicated. It was said that the ladies' ilressing-rooms were closed until eleven J'clock in the morning for the quite in- adequate reason that their male colleagues' I dressing rooms were closed for the same period in order to avoid unnecessary loiter- ing. NQiy everyone should know that a woman sompclled to take off her hat without the subse- quent assistance of a looking-glass is too ill- tempered to speak to, and quite incapable of transacting telegraphic pusiness without smash- ing the instrument. However, the Post Ofiice ladies have their way without a strike. The free- dom of the looking-glass is theirs, and altogether the deputy comptroller has exercised a commend- ible leniency. # An ingenious fraud been developed in con- nection with the recent Patriotic Fete of tho Naval and Military Exhibition at the Crysta Palace. One of the ingenious ways of raising money for the funds of the Soldiers' and Sailors Families' Association was by issuing medals sold at a substantial profit. Of the shilling medals, by the way, 30,000 have already been sold. Buy as many of these half-crown gilt medals as you can. But no one should be duped into pur- chasing so-called Crystal Palace Jubilee Medals, purporting to be of real gold. None such an issued to the public, and those igold medals whicl: have been struck have been to the direct ordet of individuals applying for them to the committee of the Patriotic Fete. An individual dressed as a clergyman has apparently purchased a quantity of the half-crown gilt medals and has victimised several ladies in the West End by selling these I medals to them as genuine gold replicas for sums varying from three to five guineas. # The War Office has found an inventor who is constructing a flying machine, and it will adopt it if it comes up to his confident expectations. He is combining in this aerial vessel the principles of the balloon, the screw propeller, and the aero- plane. Three men must be carried, and the machine must be able to remain in the air for a period equal to two days. Dr. Barton, of Beck- enham, whose design it is, has told an inter- viewer that he proposes to use a balloon, divided into airtight compartments but he contemplates the production of a power of flota- tion and flight independently of the globe of in- flated silk, which latter he hopes ultimately to discard. If he should be successful the desired revolution in navigation of the air will possibly have been achieved. We have heard a good deal recently of contrivances for flying under control, and none of them have given satisfactory results. In this country we are usually the last to encourage novel notions that do not appear to be of immediate utility, and of obvious urgency as well, and perhaps we ought to congratulate the { War Office on showing so much practical interest in this matter. I The shareholders in Allsopp and Sons have had an unpleasant meeting, and have wisely re- signed themselves to the inevitable. They had to face a loss of £ 1.670,000, a sum quite sufficient tj excuse all the indignation to which they gave utterance. How was waste on such a scale pos- sible, unless the management was gravely at fault? The' committee of investigation found, we are told, that half n. million had been laid out in the purchase of breweries, though the com- pany's own brewery at Burton W¡8.S working only to the extent of two-thirds of its capacity. To everybody outside the administrative circle that was responsible for these invest- ments such rashness seems inexplic- nhle. Some risks must be taicen by all great con- cerns in maintaining or spreading business, and the brewing firms grow largely by the acquisition of licensed houses. But the operations as a whole rarely issue in heavy losses, and in this instance the depreciation would certainly appear to be on a scale wholly inconsistent with the exercise of any judgment at all. The extensive reduction of capital proposed by the present board, and adopted by the shareholders, was really the sole course that could be judiciously pursued. Owners of preference stock are asked to make the least sacrifice, and they will hardly stand in the way of the only feasible solution ef the difficulty. The news that the famous steeple of St. Bride's, Fleet Street, is unsafe and needs im- mediate attention will be received with dismay by all lovers of old Loudon. St. Bride's steeple ili one of the most beautiful of Wren's works, and is a familiar feature in the landscape of London. The stone of which it is built is re- markable for its whiteness. The steeple is one of the highest in London, but it is not so per- fect as Wren made it, owing to its having been damaged in a storm, and the part by which it was shortened not having been rebuilt. The church has memorable literary associations. Milton once lodged in its churchyard, and a tablet to Richardson was placed in the church not many years ago. The church also contains the burial place of Richard Lovelace, who .ang — Stone walls do not prison make, Nor iron bars a cage Minds innocent and quiet take That for a hermitage. The literary associations 07 the church ate maintained to this day, for the present rector is none other than the Rev. E. C. llawkins.the father of Anthony Hope, and the brother of Lord Bramp- ton (Mr. justice Hawkins).

The South-eastern District manoeuvres have commenced at Arundel, under the command of Maior-General Hallam Parr. of voluntitry helpers joined the Vicar of Stanningley, near Leeds, in the task of improving the churchyard by their own labour. They gradually deserted him, however, when the novelty of the occupation wore off, and the vicar was left to go on with the work alone. He has manfully stuck to it, and during last week handled pick and shovel daily like a,
