Belief Expressed That Lndysmith
VIII Soon he Relieved.

London, Jan. 23.-Gen. Butler reports
from Spearman's Camp one officer and five
men killed. three officers and seventy-five
result of yesterdays fighting.
Though there is considerable anxiety as
to the immediate result of Gen. Buffers
dash at Ladysmith which later develop
ments indicate was undertaken independ-
emily of Field Marshal Lord Roberts, the
war office has now come to the conclu-
sion that the relief of Ladysmith is only
a matter of a shore time.
According TO the war Office officials
ideas, a dash to the relief of Kimberley
will quickly follow the relief of Lady
smith. and then will follow a long spell
of organization, and perhaps three or
four months will elapse before the col
umn or columns will have the transpor-
tation service in shape to advance with
the certainty of meeting with no serious
reverses.
The latter conditions are held by the
authorities to be absolutely essential be-
fore any forward movement toward the
invasion of the Transvaal is begun, hence
there is small probability of the war end
ing inside of six months.
The widow of Gen. Wauchope, in an
open letter, hotly denies the stories that
the General in any way criticised Gen.
Methuen.
Lord Wolseley has also issued a denial
of the report that the war Office is in pos
session of a letter from Gen. Wauchope,
written the night before the battle of
Magersfontein saying that it would be
the last letter he would write, as he had
been asked to perform an impossible task,
and he had either to obey orders or sur
