General Dcwet has issued a proc lamation, in Cape ColoDy, declaring that the British have ignored and disregarded the rules of civilized warfare. He accuses the English o f capturing doctors and ambulances and deporting them in order to de prive the wounded Boers of medical assistance, and charges them with the arming of Kafirs to he employed against the Boers. Ugly charges have been made re garding the tieatment of Boer wom en and children by the British. Old mothers and women have been rav ished and that even the wives and children and the property of prison ers of war and dead burghers have not been respected. In many in stances both both mother and father have been taken, the bouse left un protected and all left to their fate, an easy prey to savages. Stop« th e C ou gh and W o r k s ofT the C old .
