London (By Cable) When it be-
came known last week that peace over
frres had been made by agents of the
Afrikanders and rejected by his Maj
csty's government, Britons again began
to count the cost of the war. To help
them they had this statement on British
casualties, issued by the War Office and
covering the entire period Of the war
mp to the end of December, 1901:

As to the financial end OF the war and
the prospective increasing burdens for
taxpayers to bear the general view is
best expressed by this editorial utter
snce in the Daily Graphic, made in
commenting upon the table of casual
ties:
The enormous bill which the United
Kingdom has already paid to sustain her
prestige and her honor in South Africa
will not, it is obvious, complete the dis
bursements necessary to bring the war to
a conclusion. Taking the period from
the commencement of the military op-
erations until March 81 next, we find
that the total amount ear-marked for
war purposes in South Africa reaches
fI5o,oooooo, and, as it is possible that
an additional foooo,ooo will be annexed
by the Chancellor of the Exchequer
from the anticipated surplus for the pur-
pose OF tiding war expenditure over TN
I'll the new fiscal year, may put down
xI6o 100000 as the total amount which
will have been paid olt by March 81,
