" reports from London TO the effect
that Lord Kitchener is dead are true,
England has suffered loss probably
equally as tremendous as that which

Roberts, the late brilliant military
leader and statesman.

day expressed his oFinion as to the
effects on Great Britain Of the report
ed death OF the famous English war
secretary for the United Kingdom
ConsIl Gordon. however, states that
in his mind the report Of Kitchener's
death Is a curious one.
What was he doing at sea aboard
the Hampshire was the question
asked by the consul when informed
By representative OF the Star,BuIle-
tin OF the contents OF the overnight
despatch The consul had not read
the morning papers That is the
question which bothers me-" he con.
tfnued. Also, what was the Hamp-
shire doing near the Orkney islands
They are to the north of Scotland and
you cold not very well say they are
IN the North sea s
The consul bdinitted he could not
understand the report.
but II il Is true that he is dead. 8
he said. ''hisedeath will be tremend--
Gus loss to England"
Consul Gordon hsd received no of
ficlal communications regarding the
reported death OF Kitchener up to
press time today. He informed the
Star-BElIetin this morning that ii is
likely nc will receive no details II is
