HORROR And DESOLATION
SCENES THAT GREETED RELIEF
COLUMN ENTERING KUMASSI.

LONDON, July 29-Advices just receiv-
ed here say that Col. Wilcox, the COM
mander of the relief column In Ashanti
describes his entrance into Kumassf, July
is, as presenting a scene of horror and
desolation, burned huts and putrtd bod
les being visible on all sides.
He adds that the native soldiers were
too weak to stand, and the British officers
thanked God for the relief, as a few days
longer would have seen the end.
Col. Wilcox left the garrison well sup
piled with food and ammunition.
FUMSU, July 23-The Kumassi relief
column has just arrived here from Ku-
massi, where 1t left July II, bringing the
old garrison-about twenty fairly fit men,
seventy broken-down invalids. and some
women and children, in a pitiful condi-
ton The success of Col. Wilcox was
due to his choice of route not suspect
ed by the Ashantis, who had concentrated
in thousands along the eastern route,
but in much smaller number along the
western route, via Picci, where Col. Will
cox advanced. AS 1t was. the Ashantis
were active, and the roads knee deep in
mud.
Col. Wilcox took a couple Of villages
by bayonet charge Beyond Ekwanda he
found the tribesmen in a strong position
behind stockades. It was large war
camp, with the chief command of the
Ashanti army, estimated at 1900 men.
After heavy fire on both sides for near
ly an hour Col Wilcox ordered bay
onet charge and the troops rushed the
thick BUSH cheering vigorously The
Ashantis did not wait FOR the bayonets,
but fed in confusion.
The casualties of Col. WILCOX were two
officers wounded, two natives killed and
seventeen wounded.
On finding Kumassi in such terrible con-
dition, Col. Wilcox, after cutting bush
and burning the bodies, placed the whole
force upon half rations, an arrangement
cheerfully borne. No opposition was met
