The dispatches from South Africa have

with any degree of precision. Three or

BRiToNs WANT THE NEWS.
Great Indignation at the "Doctor

Great Indignation at the "Doctor-
ing'' of Reports.
There is great indignation in London
because of the method of the War De-
partment in "doctoring" official reports
of the fighting in Natal. Field Mar
shal Lord Wolseley, who has given out
only meager information, calling it "a
summary of the situation" is coming in
for condemnation on all sides. It is like
ly that strenuous public demand will be
made for a return to the earlier meth
DDS, when reports from the commanders
in the field are given out in full as soon
as received.
The new practice has only tended 70
increase the tension, as it appears to be
the policy to withhold bad news The
public, however, feels that it sgould be
better TO know of reverses at once II
is realized that the Gov ernment controls
all telegraphic cOmmur ication with South
Africa, and that press dispatches are
sadly mutilated. Official dispatches, it is
argued, should therefore be made public
as quickly and as fully as the interests
of the country viii permit.

Huehn's Hall was crammed to the
doors when Dowie and his band appear
cd on the stage, and the moment he at
tempted to speak the hostile demonstra-
ton commenced His every word was
met with cat calls, jeers and slurring re-
marks. The din became so deafening
that Dowie sought refuge behind the
scenes. The noise continued until 10
O'Clock, when Dowie left the building by
a rear entrance. The mob, armed with
clubs, stones and mud, followed, and an
exciting chase ensued. Dowle, surround
ed by his allies, ran three blocks to where
an electric car was in waiting. He was
struck several times and his clothes were
besmeared with mud. The ear on which
the fugitive took refuge was besieged for
several minutes, all the windows in it
broken and the passengers, in addition to
the Dowie party, were thrown into panic.
