Further Particulars of the Routing of
the Matabele Forces.
CAPE Town, Nov. "A special to the
Associated Press, through Reuters Tele-
graph Company, reports King Lobengula
flying north. When last reported by ma
tive runners he was trying to rally his
troops in the vicinity of Shangale River
and the Kwelo, about 100 miles from Bull
uwayo, and 140 miles west of Fort Carter.
He seems, from the dispatches to have
fallen into complete trap. His further
flight north toward the Zambesi River is
blocked, while the Tsetse fly country is
in his rear and Fort Salisbury on his
right flank. while on his right the Brit
ish columns are advancing. 1t is eX-
pected he will be compelled to surrender
in few days. During the march toward
the Kwelo River the British saw Rumer-
Gus bodies of Mataheles, but they always
retreated.
On the night of October Goth Major
Forbes sent a body of scouts in the direc-
ton of the headquarters of the strongest
Matabele regiment. They found the enc
my's troops in large force, apparently
prepared to make desperate resistance.
When informed of this Major Forbes
sent forward force OF 100 troopers. Sup
ported by two rapid firing guns, they felt
LD6lF way W NIIIlu d SuOIG us
tance OF the kraal, placed their guns in q
commanding position and then charged.
To the astonishment Of the troopers,
they found not single soul in the kraal
and the Matabeles in full flight in the dis
tance.
On October 23d a small body of British
under Captain White were guarding LOT
of prisoners and were attacked by the
Matabeles. The latter were repulsed
after sharp engagement, in which sew
eral were killed. The British lost NUM-
Der, including Captain Gudett.
After the British columns crossed the
Shangale River they were constantly
surrounded by the Matabeles, who feared,
however, to attack.
On October 3lst the Matabeles, 5000
strong, made furious attack on the Brit !.
ish from several sides at once. They
showed admirable discipline and the
greatest bravery. The British reserved
their fire until the Matabeles were at
close range, then opened on them with
Martini rifles aud the Maxim rapid-tire
guns. The Matabeles came on deperately
for time, but could not withstand the
fearful slaughter, and finally broke and
fled, leaving 900 killed and wounded on
the field, carrying with them hundreds OF
other wounded, beside those able to stag
ger away i'll the retreat, many of whom
have since died.
The BRUSH loss was only Two kllleu
and six wounded. From there to Bulu-
mayo the British found their way unob-
structed, the AIatabeles evidently being
too disheartened to attempt further re-
sistance.
