LOSSES OF THE BRITISH.
Casualties Among the officers Were
Particularly Heavy.

London, Oct. H.-The war office has is
sued list of casualties in the battle be-
tween Glencoe and Dundee yesterday, re-
ceived from the general commanding in
Natal, Sir George Stewart White, dated
L4adysmth, Oct. q, 4:2O a. m.
In addition to Sir William Penn Sym
MONS who is mortally wounded, two col
onels, three captains and five lieutenants
were killed, and a colonel, three majors,
six captains and ten lleutenants were
wounded.
This heavy loss among the officers was
due, as the latest dispatches from the
front show, to their valiant but insensate
conduct in sticking to the traditions of
the army and refusing to use the cover
of which the men availed themselves in
storming the Boer position on the summit
of the Kopje.
Among the rank and file the Hussars
had seven wounded; the artillery, one kill
ed and three wounded; the Leicestershre
Regiment one wounded; the Kings Rifles.
eleven killed and sixty-eight wounded; the
Irish Fusiliers, fourteen killed and thirty
wounded; the Dublin Fusiliers, four killed
and forty-one wounded, and the Natal po-
lice. two wounded Thirty-one non-com-
nissioned officers and men killed, and 15l
wounded, was the total loss of enlisted
men.
The Outlook publishes dispatch from
Cape Town, dated yesterday, alleging that
the Beers are not likely to make any fur
ther considerable offensive movement. The
correspondent says;
''They are utterly demoralized and the
men refuse 10 take risks. They are grow
ing to distrust the aged Joubert. TIE
mixed mercenaries are proving trouble
some. The artillery is badly handled, ard
the administrative department is revealing
marked defects"
The first news for a long time from Rho
desa comes in telegram from Tuli dat
ed Oct 16. The dispatch says:
Mai. Pilson, from Rhodes Drift, with
fiftv Beers, passed Pont Drift this morn
ing, shouting that they would make the
British sit up Another body Of Poers has
crossed the river at Bains Drift and Is
marching on Macloutsie, where the Iost-
master declares that he thinks he can hol
the Beers at bay. The garrison is throw
ing UP entrenchments."
This shows that the Beers have thus far
achieved nothing in the direction OF Rho
desia.

FOUGHT FOR EIGHT HOURS.
Took Long Struggle to Defeat the
Beers at Glencoe.


London. Oct. 21.-The earliest dispatches
regarding yesterdays 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 up over the
hill. According to the latest advices, how
ever the battle lasted eight hours, and
nearly seven elapsed before the last gun
was put out Of action
The Irish Fusliers and the Kings Rifles
meanwhile had advanced to the assault
and were shooting their way up the hin
driving the Beers back from shelter to
shelter, until the final rush of the British
carried them to the summit.
1t was a bright clear morning, which en-
abled the operations to be followed by the
staff officers without difficulty. A curious
fact was that several mes a lull occurred
in the firing on both sides, the British in
fantry apparently taking breathing space
in the stiff climb and the Beers also hold
ing back their fire.
The magnificent practice Of the British
guns was an immense help and the sue
cess of the assault was greatly due there
to. 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 out
fianking them, the retreat became a route.
The British guns followed, and unlim-
bering from time to time, threw shells
among the flying foe. The latter did not
wait 10 try conclusions with the Hussars
and mounted infantry, who apparently
seldom got near enough to deliver effective
voneys The pursuit was continued until
dusk when the Beers were completely de-
moralized a heavy rain began to fall
late in the afternoon, which naturally i'm
peded artillery work.
it Is a striking coincidence that yester-
day was the second anniversary of a sim
liar feat of British arms in India, when
the Gordon Highlanders stormed Dargai
hights.

GUARDING AGAINST MIAMI.
Governor Asks Ala From Wymnn
and 1t Is Promised.

Atlanta, Oct. 21.-Gov Gambler to-day
called on Surgeon General Wyman OF the
marine hospital service to protect the
towns Of South Georgia against the yellow
fever refugees from Miami, Fla. Accord
ing TO telegraphic reports that reached the
chief executive to-day from Surgeon Cen
Grad Wyman and the Mayor of Savannah,
the fever conditions ct Miami have grown
serious, ard seven new cases were report
cd in the Florida town today.
Gov. Gambler was informed by Mayor
Myers of Savannah that the people Of
Miami were leaving the pace and that 1t
was contemplated running a refugee train
from the infected town to Atlanta.
The danger, according to Gov. Gambler
and the marine hospital authorities, is TO
the unprotected South Georgia towns, at
which the train would stop.
Georgia has no state board of health,
and Gov. Gambler was unable to act. Sur
geon General Wyman replied to the effect
that he would at once direct his officers
a. Miami and other Florida points to see
that no refugees left the train over the
Plant System at any towns in South Geor-
gla.
