ONE CAUSE OF SLOW PROGRESS AND LOSSES. r. Ch arles Williams, the eailitary rt of the London Morning Leader, throughout the South African campaign has shown himself possessed of information which other critics did not have, let fresh light into the seri- ous quarrels among the British eendats the front Africa, aid in a recent issue of that journal. Field-Marshal Lord Roberts been, and up till a few days was, fering from a bowel complaint which was so serious that Lady Roberts was sent forin a hurry from Bloemfontein. It is a most unfortunate thing ‘that! ewspaper amenities prevent us from | etting forth in so many words the causes of what we venture to call an extraordinary heroism shown by the victor of Kandahar in his endurance of the saddle after having been eperated pon in a most serious manner some years ago for fistula. But, at the age of 68, it might fairly be expected that In Soutna when ! Sal such a lesion would sooner or later tell mn mind as well as upon body. Not that, by any means, we venture to sug- gest any incapacity for the present in the fulfilment of Lord Roberts’ duties. Stull, the delay is most unfortunate, be- cause the troops now in South Africa, or 50,000 of them are very badly pernee elsewhere, as it is thought high- undesirable that Great Britain should be represented in operations against Pekin by an Indian contingent only. We also learn, not wholly with as- tonishment, that Lord Roberts and Lord Kitchener would have parted company before now but that the Chief the Staff in S. Africa is a-special pro- tege of the Prime Minister. Since the Llii, of 7 i | | mucn | ‘ | HARLOTTET OW NP, KSI. | d ay i OMCcers. when Lord Kitchener sacrificed eighteen hundred men at Paardeberg, the relations between the victor of Por, e | rand the victor of Omdurman ~ not been so intimate as is desir- able in connections of this kind; and there have been times when the best- informed people in London have look- ed for Lord Kitchener to be sent home, as Sir W. F. Gatacre was and now Sir He Colville is. Gatacre isa man of war, too much so for the stomachs of certain peop! Colville, who has CK 9 Rg Uganda, is not at all like- nry ily e “9 ly to take the insult lying down, as Sir William ‘Ciandre has done, more par- ticularly as Lord Methuen has not been sent home, as everybody ex- pected he would have ‘been for the terrible mismanagemen at the Modder River and Mag versfontein, cS co not forget the shameful treat- ent meted out to Colonel 5 Gough, of the 9th Lancers, by Lord Methuen, but as an inquiry has been promised into that affair we say no more about it at present. The administrative chaos in S. Africa has probably been reduced by the interview of several days’ dura- tion between Lord Roberts and Sir Redvers Buller, who, in case of Lord Roberts’ incapacity, would de entitled, unless the Cabinet named anothe: General, to succeed to the chief com- mand. Andhe would succeedto n: enviabie post, for scarcely any one would believe, who does not know the n, the bickering and «acrid feeling 25 existed for six months, not so yetween the Chiets as between subordinate English and Indian Staff There, we have blurted it out, and those whe have patience to wait will read in due time something very much worse than anything told of the relations of the General Staff the Crimean war. tnat THE CHINESE PLEA.

Action on these lines by the Chinese authorities would not only justify any of the powers in striving to stop the present hostilities, but would make further operations unnecessary. There are enough of the powers which ; have no desire to grasp Chinese terri- tofy, now represented in the inter- national column, te make its progress without their help hopeless. The gravity of the situation for China isin the fact that it: Govern ment seems unable to give the desired asSurances. The Emperor’s letter, to which President McKinley's is a reply was datedequivalent to July1rg. It does not say a werd about the legations or their European occupants, though the Emperor’s advisors must have known from the Chinese ministers abroad how deep is the anx'e!) the matter: The appeal willrather add to the fear that the reports of the massacre were well founded, that the silence o the Chinese messages on the all-im- portant qvestion is a sign that the worst has happened, and that the ap- peals and protests from Pekin are only for the purpose of giining time ina hope that something up to avert the evil consequ one of the worst of the century's crimes. isa’ ' rn Cuces - OF DON’T SAY UNKIND THINGS.
