LOSS OF THE BRITISH.
South Africa Has Cost Almost as Much
as Waterloo General Gatacre's
Disaster.

South Africa Has Cost Almost ms Much
as Waterloo General Gatacre's
Disaster.
London, CBy Cable. 1T Is just two months
since the Transvaal ultimatum was deliver I'd
to Great Britain. Nine engagements have
been fought and the British losses reported
are!
Killed, $685.
Wounded, 2,027.
Captured and missing 1877.
This is two-thirds OF the total British loss
at the Battle of Waterloo.
The Daily Mail says the Stormberg defeat
was not General Gatacre's fault but the
fault of the administration Mt home; that he
had Inferior numbers, and was shy OF an
adequate cavalry force.
1t is now announced that the Sixth division
OF the British Army is under pro npt sailing
orders The Seventh and Eighth divisions
will certainly be required AS consequence
OF Gatacre's defeat and the consequent de-
lay in the advance movement
The loss OF the battle will have a bad
political effect In Cape Colony, but worse
will be the impression produced in the
Orange Free State.
There was good reason to hope that the
Free Staters were losing heart and growing
sick of the war, but with the arrival Of 600
British prisoners at Bloemfontein British
anticipations will be disappointed and Pres-
dent Steyn and his men will be confirmed In
their resistance.
The War Ofllce had news from the front,
but decided not to make it public. As good
news is never kept back, the natural infer
ence is that II is not encouraging for the
Britons. The latter are already pretty glum
over Gatacre's defeat. and just this emer-
gency announcement is made. as in similar
and previous occasions:
Zone Of the two cables to Cape Town is
broken"
This story Of the breaking OF the cables is
getting so old that 1t looks much like another
form Of censorship.
London will probably have to go without
much news for several days
Even the full story Of Gatacres defeat Is
untold and au air of mystery clings about
his retreat.
