MOBILIZATION OF
THE ENGLISH TROOPS

LONDON, Oct. 20.-The mobilization is
practically completed and it is said that
more than 80 per cent Of the reserves have
Joined the colors. This is considered emf
nently satisfactory. The speed at which
the army corps has been got together has
excited the admiration of the German
headquarters staff and they have sent a
semi-official message of congratulation
through the British military attache in
Berlin to the service.
The London press regards this as q well
deserved compliment the papers point
ing out that not only have the reservists
responded splendidly but the large ma
iority of those who have reported are
medically fit for service. In several cases
the outgoing regiments contain a prepon-
derance of reservists most of them in
the prime of manhood and men who have
fought in India and in Egypt. 1t is the
aim Of the War Office to send no man to
South Africa unless he has had a least
a years service. The only serious criti-
cism apparently to be made regarding
these thousands destined for the front is
that the reserves are for the most part
ignorant of the mechanism of the maga-
zine rifle Efforts have been made to
overcome this and to give the men prac-
tice with the Lee-Metford, but the time
has been too short to do much. What eff
feet this lack of familiarity with their
own weapons will have upon the accur-
acy of the fire of the British can only be
Judged when the dead and wounded are
gathered from the fields of battle.

BATTLE DESCRIBED BY
A NEWS CORRESPONDENT

LONDON, Oct 2O.-The Daily News
publishes the following dispatch from its
special correspondent:
GLENCOE, Natal, Friday afternoon
The first battle has been fought and the
Beers have sustained a blow which will
give them a serious pause in their ad-
vance southwark In the British camp last
night 1t was the general expectation that
to-day would not pass without some hard
fighting
The enemy had been reported advancing
in force, and this rumor had been con-
firmed by a squadron of hussars which
had been sent out to reconnoiter. When
dawn broke this morning it was discov-
cred that the Beers during the night had
occupied a strong position on Dundee Hill
about three miles east and overlooking
the camp and the town. They had placed
several guns in position.
Almost precisely at o'clock came the
boom of their first gun. and within a few
minutes they had developed a heavy fire.
Their practice was however, poor, and
their shots did no damage. In the mean
time our own guns had taken up the chal-
lenge. 1t soon became apparent that
whatever might be the issue Of the fight
our artillery would not be in fault Our
fire was magnificent. Within fifteen min
utes after our first shot the Beers guns
NtIG Sl4tINGu- Iog ills time lHe GHtUlg
could be seen swarming over the hill out
side of Dundee and making toward the
south. The intention evidently was to
turn our position.
An advance was at once ordered of in
fantry and cavalry. Both moved out, and
soon the battle was raging in the valley
outside Of the town. A hot rife fire was
kept up by our men, no advantage offered
by the nature of the ground being
neglected. The advancing force was ef-
fectually covered by our guns which con-
tinued to play upon the enemy's position.
The fire of the Beers at this point was
decidedly weak 1t seemed as if their in
effective artillery work might have taken
the heart out of them.
Our men continued TO advance steadily
in the face of their fire, and reached the
foot of the hill in fine form. The Beers,
seeing themselves worsted. fell back and
retired toward the east. Our losses have
been heavy, but no details are yet pro-
durable The final dash up the hill was
brilliant affair. The Dublin Fusileers did
fine work. Nothing at this time can be
said Of the enemys losses, but they must
have been very serious.
