Captain Slocum especially condemns the
failure of the British to make proper re-
connaissance before advancing. He says
apparently Butler believed he had only
small force to encounter and would
have no difficulty In brushing 1t aside.
Failure to make proper reconnaissance
he gives also, as The cause OF the disas-
ters sustained by the British at Ma
gersfontein and Stormberg. At Ma
sersfontein General Wauchope advanced
at night with his brigade in quarter
column. to capture a position. No at

snoved forward four deep, stumbling over
distractions. when suddenly a search
light was turned upon them and they
became the target for the enemy's rifles
and guns which decimated their ranks.

tions of the British since the pursuit Of
General Cronje has not been received by
She war department, but. officers Of the
service are satisfied the disasters which
have overtaken the British have taught
them a lesson which they are applying
in their present operations.
Captain Slocum is probably with the
troops which have surrounded General
Cronje, leaving General Buffers opera
tions to be reported upon by officers in
whom he can place confidence.
Great regret is expressed by the de-
rartment that the British declined to
permit four officers to witness the South

then be possible to distribute them
among the operating forces.
