England was shocked today by the an-
nouncementtrom the War Otiice that
in the battle at Ladysmith on londay
the Royal Irish Fusilisrs, the 10th
Hountaia Battery and the Gloucester-
shire Regiment were surrounded by
overwhelming numbers, and after los-
ing heavily were compelled to capitu.
late.
The Beers thus got between 1.500
and 2,000 prisoners and captured ive
screw guns.
General White telegraphs:
“I formed a plan, in the carrying out
efwhich disaster occurred and I alone
_ am responsible. N o blame to the troops
as the position was untenable.”
This loss will greatly cripple General
White and may compel his retirement
from Ladysmith.
_ The War Odicehas notified General
Bullet that extra troops will be for-
warded to make good the losses.
The Boer loss in killed and wounded T
is estimated at between 900 and 1,000.
