E LONDON, Nov. 3o.-The disaster at
pewetsdorp has sent thrill of alarm
through Great Britain. The censorship
continues SO strict that there Is no. hope
OF arriving at a clear conception OF the
actual position OF affairs in South Afrl-
ca. For instance independent, accounts
OF the subsequent proceedings and the
re-capture OF Dewetsdorp give ample
details. not omitting to announce the
capture OF the two Boer wagons and a
quantity OF loot; but there Is not ths
slightest mention of the surrender Of
four hundred British troops and two
guns which were not even disabled In
asmuch as the Beers were able to use
them against the British relief forces
The ubiquitous DeWet seems again
to have gotten away and so far, there
I Is no news that the captured British
have been liberated. tst .f
Taking into consideration the enig-
imatical military situation north OF the
Orange river. tho smouldering rebellion
In Cape Colony, the rumors that France
has promised Mr.. Kruger topress ar
bitration on England, II he Is able to
obtain the support OF Germany, and
that Lord Kitchener after NIL is not TO
be given the chief command in South
Africa, the British government will
meet .theSnes purlsamcntsnextswpele'at {
an exceedingly Inopportune moment.
! No attempt Is made TO conceal the
extreme Irritation made by the adop-
ton OF n resolution OF sympathy with
Mr.. Kruger by the French chamber Of
deputies.
The morning papers are unanimous In
declaring that no intervention OF nny
kind will be allowed to change British
policy.
The Morning Post reviewing the sltu-
alton says:
"Thc surrender Mt Dcwetsdorp looks
still worse In the light OF the suggcs-
tion that probably half the towns We
have gnrrsonrd In the territories OF the
republics are in no better situations to
resist attack"
The Standard describes the disaster
