Lord Wolseley's speech in the house

duct Of the South African war, since lie
will start next week on his mission as q
special ambassador to announce the
death of Queen Victoria When the
Duke of Bedford was moved to make
critical remarks on the military admin
istration. Lord Wolseley. took part in
the debate with the air of candid
friend who was forced to say some thing
against his will. This debate exposed
him to an unexpected attack from Lord
1-ansdowne, and Lord Wolseleys came out
as some of the British generals did from
ed in self-defense to return to the sub
charges. He has been consulting with
Lord RosebeTy and other friends ara
may cause the government much annoy
ance-
At the outbreak of the war the intel
Iigence department was held responsible
for miscalculations regarding the Bosr
resources, but the reports now in print
prove that it was not at fault Lords
Wolseley and Lansdowne and Mr.. Cha M
berIain and the entire cabinet we-e
caught in a Boer ambuscade and should
be held jointly responsible for lack OF
judgment in Understanding the ma gni-
tude of the military operations in South
Africa. Neither Lord WolseIey nor Lori
LanSdowne wishes to be the Scapegcat.
