(Continued from First Page.) Roberts has advised against any further attempt to relieve Ladysmith. All Brit- ish efforts will now be concentrated on the army of invasion under Roberts and Kitchener to march into the Free State. But this will hardly help White, who has held out for three months, is short of provisions and whose men are dying daily of fever. HE MUST EITHER SURRENDER OR CUT HIS WAY OUT. In the one event he saves his men and shatters British pride; in the other he sacrifices his men but saves what British pride there is left. Great anxiety was removed by the announcement, at 3.26 P. M., that Lord Dundonald’s cavalry forces, which it was feared were isolated by the Boers in the hills in the neighborhood of Acton Homes, are sate on the south bank of the Tugela River. .
