practices Many of them are men General Cronje and Army Surrender His GALLANTLY FOUGHT AGAINST OVERWHELMING ODDS iA Brave Struggle for Ten Days Against the British Force Under Field Marshal -The Number of Boers Captured Is About lour Thousand General Duller Still Unable to Reach Ladysmith After ten days of heroic defense Pgainst overwhelming odds General Cronje at daylight yesterday morning made an unconditional surrender to Field Igwrshal Roberts Commander-In-Chief of the BrltiBh Army The Boer army under Cronje to the number us reported of about 4000 men was Included in the surrender At the time of the relief of Kimberley about twelve days ago General Cronje found his position at Magers-fontein north of the Modder River where the British under General Methuen had several times been severely repulsed could no longer be held as he was surrounded by a greatly superior force He accordingly marched eastward with his army towards the Orange Free State border but was hotly pursued and his escape cut off by the enemy He then took up a new position in the bed of the Modder River at a point near Paardeberg where the high banks of the water course afforded shelter and enabled his men to burrow for protection against shell Are In this situation for ten days the Boers were continually fired upon by a great number of British field guns which Shelled the camp from every side but successfully resisted all infantry attacks inflicting heavy losses on the British The number of the British force Is not known but Is estimated to be upwards of 30000 men The Boer loss is not known and that of the British has been but partially reported It Is believed that thousands of men must have escaped to the Orange Free State from the time the Boer retreat from Magersfonteln began as It Is supposed that he had at least 8000 troops with him at Magers-fontein main object In his gallant resistance to the forces under Roberts seems to have been to delay the British advance upon Bloemfontein the capital of the Orange Free State where it Is supposed the Boers have been concentrating from all points and preparing fortifications for a desperate defense Meanwhile General Buller has been Buffering heavy losses In persistent efforts to reach Ladysmith but with only Blight gains In position The Boers are in strong force on high hills and ridges south of the town where their field guns are able to do good service While the surrender of Cronje and his men Is a hard blow to the Boers It is in a measure offset by the heavy losses of the It Is probable also that the Boers have nearly as many prisoners ull told as the British There Is great rejoicing In England over the surrender of Cronje but it Is realized that the war Is far 'from over and that every advance of the British must be at the expense of great bloodshed General Cronje has been treated by General Roberts with distinguished consideration and has been sent In a special car with a military escort to Cape Town where he will be held as a prisoner of war Few field guns were captured with Cronje and it is a mystery what disposition he made of the formidable artillery he had with him at Magersfonteln In the fighting at Paardeberg on Sunday the 18th Instant the British lost 721 men surrender was on the anniversary of the battle of Majuba Hill which occurred nineteen years ago the British suffered a mortifying defeat at the hands of the Boers It Is estimated that the Boer strength is still from 00000 to 70000 men TELEGRAPH The Uganda Railway telegraph line reached the Nile at Rlppon Falls February 18th and was
