queen with the greatest satisfaction.
While admiring the gallant conduct of
the troops, her majesty Is most deeply
grieved to hear of the heavy losses the
victories have occasioned and greatly
deplores the loss Of SO many valuable

London, Oct. 23.-The war Office an
nounces in the fighting between Glen
coe and Dundee, in Natal, thirty-one
non-commissioned officers and men
We're killed and ISL wounded. A later
dispatch form Sir George Stewart
White says that Sir William Penn Sy-
mons is brighter, but that the doctor
can give no further opinion The
British casualties include besides Gen
eral Symons, who is believed to be
MORALLY wounded, Colonel Beckett,
wounded seriously; Colonel Sherston,
killed; Colonel Adam, wounded seri-
ously; Majors Hammersly and Davi-
son, severely wounded. Some Of the
cavalry are still chasing the Beers to
the eastward.
oAttAo AAeCoO 1SlRht Hours.
The earliest dispatches regarding
this battle conveyed the impression
that the whole affair was over in
couple Of hours, the British artillery
silencing the Boer guns and infantry
and then simply charging right over
the hill. According to the latest ad-
vices, however, the battle lasted eight
hours and nearly seven hours elapsed
before the last Boer gun was put out
Of action. The Irish fusileers and the
Kings rifles meanwhile had advanced
to the assault and were shooting their
way up the hill, driving the Beers
back from shelter to shelter, until the
ANAL rush of the British carried them
to the summit.
Lull in the Firing.
1t was bright, clear morning, which
enabled the operations to be followed
by the chief officers without difficulty.
A curious fact was that several times
lull occurred in the firing on both
sides, the British infantry apparently
taking breathing space in the stiff
climb, and the Beers also holding back
their fire. The magnificent practice
OF the British guns was an immense
help, and the success of the assault
was greatly due thereto. An enormous
quantity of ammunition was expended.
Once the British bayonets showed on
top Of Kopje the Beers retreated and
when on descending the other side they
found a British battery and British
cavalry outflanking them, the retreat
became reut.
News from RhodcsIa.
The first news for a long time from
Rhodesia comes in telegram from
Tuli, dated Oct. 10. The dispatch saws:
Major Prison from Rhodes Drift, with
fifty Beers, passed Pont Drift this
morning, shouting that they would
make the British sit up. Another
body of Beers has crossed the river at
Bains Drift, and is marching on Mac
Loutsie, where the postmaster de-
clares that he thinks he can hold the
Beers ut bay. The garrison is throw
Ing up entertainments.
This shows that the Beers have thus
far achieved nothing in the direction
Of Rhodesia.
