the heroic stand made by the dccimated bat

General Whites use Of the word "capitulate" In
his first telegram. but now tina, it is known that
the Gloucestcrs and the Fusers fought back
20 the wall against overwhelming odds. and up
held the hest traditions Of the British army. the
tension has been relieved. since there is no
longer ground TO dread that the loss Of life and
men was accompanied by dishonor.
The details to-day show the catastrophe in a
brighter aspect The full battalions were not
engaged. and therefore the list Of prisoners IS
materially reduced
Apart from General Whites statement that
the losses arc very numerous there is nothing
to indicate the extent Of them. except a vague
report to the effect that the soldier who brought
the news to Ladysmith said tho British dead
and wounded we're lying in heaps and that
hundreds needed doctors. This. however Is
hardly BONE ont 10y the long list OF captured
officers. who. presumably. are alive.

view Of the fact that similar official assurances

there is intense anxiety for further news OF
