LORD ROBERTS.
Rumored that He will Succeed Butler
in Africa.

NEW YORK, December 5.-A dis
patch to the World from London says:
Field Marshal Lord Roberts will be
ordered to Cape Town to take chief
command of all the British forces in
South Africa, according to a rumor pre-
valent tonight, superseding General
Butler. Lord Roberts ranks next to
Lord Wolseley, the COMMANDMENTS
Chief of her majesty's forces, and was
long COMMUNICATIVE Chief in India.
Military experts think General Butler
has enough to do to look after Natal,
while Generals Gatacre, French and
Methuen are operating almost as in
dependent commanders.
There is no more popular or efficient
officer in the British army than Field
Marshal Lord Roberts of Candahar,
popularity called Little Bobs." Frede-
rick Cliegh Roberts, the distinguished
son of a distinguished father, is an old
officer of the Bengal Artillery. In the
mutiny before Delhi, where he was
wounded and had his horse shot under
him, he repeatly distinguished himself,
winning the Victoria Cross. The UNI
beylah and Abyssinian campaigns
brought him more credit and the
Afghan war capped it. His famous
march to Candahar assured his position
in the front rank. India never has had
more able or successful commander
in-chief.
