Led by Treacherous Guide
Against an |mpreg-
nah|e Position.
HEAVY BRITISH LOSSES
London Shocked by the News
of this New Disaster.

London, Dec. ll.-Latcr details of
the defeat of Gatacre show, that but
for the magn iicent work of the Brit
iSh artillery the disaster would have
been far more extensive, as the inces-
SAINT fire of the Boer shells into the
midst of the rcpused infantry would
ultimately have led to great disorder.
1t only escaped developing into a com
pletc route through the efficient work
of the batteries and artillery which
effectively covered the retreat, thus
drawing away a portion of the Beers
CALLING fire.
Apparently the British were set to
do an impossible task, through the
treachery of guides, after a trying
march.
The troops had been under arms for
sixteen hours and then attacked the
wrong part Of the Bocr position, on
a hill that was well nigh impreg-
nable.
The Burghcrs numbered SIX thou
sand instead of twenty-five hundred,
as the spies reported.
There is little in the story to mitl'
cate the intense humiliation occa'
stoned by the repulsc, which was AT
almost exact counterpart of the battle
at NichOlSOnS Neck.

skirmiSh. The Americans had no
