BOER GENERAL REFUSES TO
LEAD TROOPS AND RESIGNS.
Action of ommandant In South Afri-
ca Brings Bitter Reply.


London, Sept. 22.-Brigadier General
Christian Frederick Beyers command
ant general of the Union of South At
rica's defense forces, has resigned his
post because of his dsapproval Of the
action of Great Britain in. sending
commanders (forces of Boer troops) to
conquer German southwest Africa.
The official press bureau last night
gave out the letter of resignation of
General Beyers and the reply of Gen
finance and defense of the South Az
rican Union.
General Beyers reminds General
SHUTS that in August he disapproved
of the sending of commanders to con-
quer German southwest Africa, and
expresses surprise that parliament
confirmed the resolution of the gov
eminent to conquer the German terri
tory without any provocation to the
Union by the Germans. He insists that
a majority of the Dutch people in the
Union disapprove of the crossing of
the German frontier. The letter said
in part:
1T is said this war is being waged
agains the barbarity of the Germans.
have forgiven but not forgotten all
the barbarities perpetrated on our
country during the South African
war"
Beyers Severely Criticized.
General SHUTS in his reply says that
all the plans for operations against
German southwest Africa were made
in consultation with General Beyers
and that his suggestions were largely
carried out
Your bitter attack on Great Brit
ain" General SHUTS continues, mot
only is entirely baseless. but most UNI
justiflable, coming, as ii does, in the
midst of n great war.
"Your reference to barbarous acts
during the South African war cannot
justify the criminal devastation of
Belgium and can only be calculated to
SOW hatred and division among the
people of South Africa"
