and was hardly expected to join Cen
eral White at Ladysmith until today
His acts We're actuated by sound
judgment, since he soon would have
been surrounded and in a desperate
position. The combined forces at Lady
cmith. now amounting to some 1900
men, viii be amply sufficient to act on
the defensive. A few more victories
like Glencoe and Elandslaagte, how
ever, would leave the British troops
without officers.
British Have Heavy Losses.
While the Beers have failed to take
advantage of their strategic position,
owing to the incompetence or haste of
their leaders, the British have no cause
for congratulations over the results of
the Natal operations. They have suf-
fered heavy losses in men and their
victories have practically gone for
nothing, the whole of northern Natal
being now abandoned to the Beers.
il would have been better to have
concentrated on Ladysmith in the first
instance, but General White ard Cen
eral Symons had to yield to political
exigencies and to the local reluctance
to abandon an inch of territory more
than was necessary. 1t is not expected
that the wounded left at Dundee will
suffer except in being prisoners of war.
The news OF unrest in Basutoland
causes much anxiety
The correspondents who were taken
prisoners in the train at ElandslaaSte
have escaped. They report that they
were well treated by the Beers, and
that in the collecting and assisting of
the wounded, Beers and British. seem
to have been mutually helpful.

The Queens Bitter Regret at the

which she has never before permitted

The British forces in Natal have al
ready lost in killed or wounded nearly
soc men in three days fighting. The
Gordon Highlenders lost only one Off
Ger and five men killed in their famous
attack on Dargai Heights in the Afridi
campaign, while at Elandslaagte they
had four officers killed and nine
wounded. twenty men killed and tlnir-
tythree wounded. The Beers distin-
suished and shoot the officers by rea-
son of their carrying no rifles, their uni
form being the same as that Of the
men.

ton of mounted infantry which pursued
the Beers after the first fight at Glen

pectati0n is now regarded as certain.

over two resolutions, one censuring the
general government and the president,
Attorney General GriggS and ex-Secre-
tary of War AlgeT by name, for their
action on the anti-canteen law, and the
other denouncing the war in the Phil
ippipes. The opposition to the passage
of the resolution denouncing the war
was led by Mrs. Mary H. Hunt of Mas
sachusetts, who lost a son in the Phil
ippines, while the pro-resolution forces
were led by Mrs. Clara Hoffman of Mis-
souri, and Mrs. X. L. Stevenson of Mas
sachusetts. The resolutions were as
follows:
I'VE rejoice that the last year of the
nineteenth century witnessed the first
international peace congress, and hail
the. fact as a glad Omen that during
the century upon which we are just
entering, international arbitration will
be the only recognized method for the
settlement of international complica-
tons.
We deeply deplore the attitude taken
by our nation with respect to the Phil
ippine islands, and since governments
can derive their just powers only from
the consent of the governed, we protest
both against the policy which would
compel foreign people to submit to
the rule of the United States and
against the war through which the
administration is striving to enforce it's
policy.
Against The Cantsen.
I'VE protest against the manifestly
forced and unjust interpretation of the
anti-canteen law, as rendered by Attor-T
ney General Griggs of the United
States, upheld by ex-Secretary OF War
Alger. We urge upon the chief execu-
tive, William Mckinley, of our nation,
as commander-in-chief of our army
and navy an immediate consideration
of the case, which will result in such
action as shall be in accord with the
expressed will Of the people and his

ourselves to renew efforts, through

adequately explained on the theory
that the government suspected that
some great power would be tempted to

sudden blow or carrying out deeply

The quarter from which such an at
