Is the only report to hand. "
The War ofllce has also received the fol
lowing from General Buller : *
"CAPETOWN , Friday , Nov. 10. 10:20 :
p. m. The following message has been re
ceived from Colonel Kekewlch :
" 'KIMBERLEY , Monday , Nov. 6. TJie
wounded are progressing satisfactorily. Two
unarmed natives have been shot by the
Boer ? at Alexander's Fonteln. The con
servancy post to the south of the KImberley
reservoirs bos been missing since November
4. It ls _ supposed to. have .been captured by
the Boers. Browne of Bcaconsfleld , having
ridden beyond the barriers vesterday , Is
missing. It Is supposed ho waa captured.
The situation otherwise Is unchanged. ' ' , '
The last Infantry battalions under orders
for South Africa left England today and the
last of the Hussars sailed today , leaving the
Household regiment the only cavalry to be
despatched , and last , but by no means least ,
the First battery of the Howitzer artillery
has started. Great things are expected of
the Howitzer battery , of which there are
only three In the British army. These flve-
Inch breechloaders are claimed to be ot a
superior character and are expected to bo
particularly serviceable In removing the
Boers from the hills.
The entire absence ot news Is having Its
effect on the nerves of the country and the
references In the censored dispatches to
heavy losses heightens the anxiety. It la
pointed out that the absence ot serious news
In such dispatches that have been received
from General White proves nothing , as the
general Is not likely to send by pigeon any
thing unpleasant or Indicative of anxiety ,
carriers being so liable to fall Into the hands
of the Boers.
There are signs that the greater part ot
the Boers are concentrating between Lady-
smith and Colensd , but the stories are so
contradictory that It Is Impossible to assert
this positively. If trueIt Is pointed out that
while It cuts off Ladymnlth the risk to the
Boers la also great , for It will give General
White a great chance to Intercept their re
treat when Lord Mothucn's division advances
from the southward , unices In the meanwhile
General Joubert succeeds In crushing the beleaguered -
leaguered garrison. That the latter Is com
pleting preparations for a series of desperate
attacka on General White's position Is not
doubted , and heavy fighting may be heard
from at any moment.
General White's forces , It Is asserted , muiit
bo enduring a dally ordeal which will hardly
Improve their fighting efficiency , and the
danger of the shortness of ammunition looms
up largely. On tbo development ot the sit
uation at Ladysmlth In the Immediate future -
turo depends perhaps the duration of the
war. It Is pointed out that If General Whlto
can maintain hlo position until November 25
or 2G the British authorities will be fully sat
isfied that all danger In Natal will be over.
Should ho be compelled to abandon bis guns
and stores and retire with heavy losses
southward , where ho will meet the Boors In
possession of the Tugeln , It Is impossible to
predict what may happen ,
On tbo other hand , the critics say , should
the position at Ladysmlth not bo materially
changed until November 28 , It Is predicted
that the majority of the Boer forces will be
caught bctwev'n tvio British force * and com
pelled to retreat over the difficult Tlntwa
pass , or Llvcrshook , after abandoning their
guns.

LONDON , Nov. 11. Europe ! n now BROS
with rumors bt diplomatic activity and al
liances that may bo effected. As a result ,
the relations of the European powers seem
to bo rapidly assuming a now phase. This ,
doubtlres , la not a little duo to the fact
that In nearly nil the recent International
negotiations the United States has been n
factor. Judging from Lord Salisbury's In
ference , this can bo partly attributed to the
evident determination of the government to
work harmoniously with Great Britain , a
policy which , judging from the continental
proto , Is obnoxious to the majority of the
peoples. The forthcoming visit of Emperor
William to Queen Victoria Is regarded ne
capping the climax ot British diplomatic
success , and the feeling of tatlsfnctlon at
thls'statu ot affairs Is not In the slightest
degree marred by any feeling of Jealousy
oVcr the emperor's recent meeting at Pots
dam. The statement that Count von Buclow
will accompany Emperor William to Eng
land Is taken to be nn Indication that his
majesty docs not mean to glvo the nntl-
Brltlsh press any opportunity of belittling
his visit on the score that It Is merely nn
. But
obligatory one on his grandmother.
whllo the emperor undoubtedly Intends to
ofnclally emphasize the friendship of Ger
many for Great Britain , It Is scarcely likely ,
us eomo of the'optimistic declare , that Im
portant treaties looking toward n closer al
liance will 'be ' the Immediate consequence of
the Imperial Jaunt. It is pointed out that
all which could be done In this direction
seems already accomplished , and several
diplomats have expressed the opinion to
representatives of the Associated Press that
than waa expected and
this was far more
> that International feeling was not' yet rlpo
I for any more than n formal bond between
the two nations , which three years ago were
on the verge of hostilities.
The advance to the relief of General
Whlto can hardly start for a fortnight , and ,
In the meantime , whatever happens at
Ladysmtth , little news Is likely to reach
London. The lull gives the opportunity for
a discussion ot Great Britain's political and
military position. It Is beginning to bo
asked whether , looking at the present expe
rience , the British army la equal to the na
tional needs. Lieutenant Colonel ' Slr Wolfe
Barry of the engineer and railroad' volunteer
staff , corps , says : "In military matters
Great Britain Is trading with insufficient
capital. She ought to add 100,000 men to ,
her army. "

LONDON , Nov. 11. ( New .York World

LONDON , Nov. 11. ( Now York Cablegram
Special Telegram. ) Among the Guard of-
flcora who leave tonight for the scene of war
Is the Honorable Gerald Ward , aged 22 , son
ot the countess of Dudley. He married
Lady Evelyn Crlchton , aged 21 , on Tuesday
last. Some criticism has been Indulged In
because the parents of both sides permitted
this marriage before the war , but the truth
Is the young people decided the question
for themselves , being desperately attached
to each other.
Among other departures Is Lord Howard
DoWalden , who had leave for a week to
attend his father's funeral Wednesday ; Lady
Evelyn Crlchton also has two brothers at oren
on the way to the front. The marqula ot
Duffcrln has three s6ns on the Transvaal
border and In Natal. The marquis of Tully
Bardlne , heir of the duke of Athol , who mar
ried a most-beautiful girl , Mire Hamsay , two
months since , loaves with the Guards. The
three Tecks , brothers of the duchess of York ,
are already In South Africa. Lord Talbot ,
only brother and heir to the duke of Norfolk ,
whcso sister died yjestcrday , has gone with
the Nineteenth Hussars. Two eons , next
holrs to Lord St. Clalr , ot the oldest
baronetcy in Scotland , are there as well , as
are the two sons of the war secretary , the
marquis of Lansdown , while the duchess ot
Buccleuch has two 'eons and a son-in-law at
the front. The carl of Longford , married
Wednosdny to tho" daughter of the earl of
Jerspy , sails today for Capetown. The duke of
Statbaiis , brother and' he'lr , Is In Klmberloy.
The duchess of Roxburgh has two sons with
White's force at Ladysmlth. The duke of
Portland hasi a brjthcrtln Mnfeklng ; whllo

there Is hardly an aristocratic family with

tributes to him the responsibility for the
killing of wounded dervishes. He says that
on the previous campaign General Kitchener
had Issued orders to the .Egyptian eoldlory
that tbo wounded were to be spared. Ho
refrained from Issuing any such Injunction
before Omdurman , and the Egyptians took
his silence as a license to kill the wounded.
Lieutenant Churchill also censures him for
his Inadequate arrangements for British
wounded. Ho cut down that branch of the
expedition to the lowest possible limits , re
sulting In great unnecessary suffering and
pc slble less of Ufa among the wounded.
General Kitchener , saya Lieutenant
Churchill , regards a wounded man ns a
nuisance , because ho encnmboiH an expedi
tion without giving any value In return.
The book on the whole Is icmarkable , not
only for Its matured judgment , Its graphic
descriptive power and literary force , but also
for Its courage and contempt for conven
tional Idc-ns , In which young Lieutenant
Churchill so strikingly resembles bin bril
liant father.

Another revolutionary movement Is ex
pected nt any tmo | In this section of tbo
tropics , nnd ns a result the entire popu
lation of the town Is on the alert. No ono
Is allowed to discuss politics openly hnd the

quiet.
The old Island trouble haa again arisen
and a fight Is looked for between tliu liberal
and conservative parties , The town Is
guarded by the police force , and soldiers are
expected at any time. Both factions seem to
have agreed upon Bocas Del Torp as thu
main battleground , and the foreign resi
dents fear that n flro will bo started by one
or the other sides.
The government hen required all resi
dents to place a light before their doors
every night to provide against attacks In
the darkness ,
All thu principal leaders of the liberal
party hnvo departed from Bocas , which Indl-
catoa that tbo fighting will begin shortly.
Martial law Is expected and the foreigners
are icady to cloae up their establishments
and hoist the flag of their nation ut the
first outbreak.

minister will not Interfere In any way. On
the other hand there probably will bo no ob
