BOER LOSSES WERE
FOUR HUNDRED AT ITALIA

London, Oct. "A dispatch from
Dundee, Natal. to the Times says
| the Boer attack on Fort Italia
proves to have been far bigger en-
gagement than could be gathered
from the from the first reports. The
casualties on both sides indicate the
fierceness of the struggle.
The BOer casualties are now esti-
mated at over four hundred. The
British prisoners saw sixty Beers
buried on farms and assisted in car
rying off seventy five wounded. The
Beers informed the prisoners that
they expected TO find the Fort Italia
garrison only 100 strong. The
burghers lost more men than in any
previous action this year
There seems no doubt, says the
Times correspondent, that the Beers
intended combined invasion of
Natal. east and west 1t is stated
that General de Wet ordered the
burghers in the northeastern part of
Orange River Colony to concentrate
at Taelkop, but up to now the only
result of the movement has been the
isolated invasion ofNatal by a small
commando, which can easily be driv-
en- back.
British officers who were recently
prisoners say that Gen BOthas men
and horses are in good condition,
but the mems clothing is in a poor
state. The British prisoners have
been deprived of nearly everything
they possessed.
The main body of the Beers is still
near the Zululand frontier.
