Thaba Nehu, May 13.—The eighth division, with its front ex- tending 30 miles, was yesterday moving forward.

General Brabant’s main force, with Campbell’s brigade of guards and General Boies’ brigade, have cleared the country, The Boers are splitting up and retiring n the direction of Clocoland. Losses Heavier Than Reported London, May 14.—3!12 p. m.— The war office has received the fol- lowing dispatch from Lord Roberts: “‘Kroonstad, May 13.—There were more casualties in the cavalry division on May 10 than reported by me. I have been unable to get an exact account of what occurred, as the commanding officer, Captain Elsworthy, was killed and two offi- cers were wounded at the same time and have been sent to the rear. But it would appear that a party of our men, going to a kraal on which a white flag was flying, was sud- denly attacked by a large number of the enemy. Two officers, Cap- tain Haigh, of the Sixth Dragoons, . and Lieutenant Wilkinson, of the Australian horse, were made pris- oners and twenty-one men are still unaccounted for, Some of them may have turned up, as the cavalry da iderable di May 10, and men reported missing have been rejoining during the last few days.” The above dispatch refers to losses sustained by the Inniskillings May 10, as detailed in the dis- patches of the Associated Press. The troopers were fired on while ynsaddling their horses, having ap- proached the kraal unsuspiciously, while a white flag was flying from it. - —_—_——__—_—. Sandon Fire Fund.
