THE BRITISH MAY RETIRE. Thejr Troops Fell Back on Ladymlth in Perlect Order. Ilr Aaaoclntrd I'rcae lo tlie Jonrnnl. London, Oct. 31. Mr. Stovens, tho ship la very severe, tlio only conclusion A British Confession. Tho battle at Ladysmith, which de spite tho rather heavy losses, must bo regarded rather as an ostenedod reeon noissanco or skirmish than a battlo, seems to make llttlo change in tho act ual liosition. It is diesappointing to tho Britisli public, asi again ravelling tae tlcal skill of iiu unexpectedly high order on the side of the Boers. In addition to tlio possession of a num ber of heavy guns, tho transport ot which causes wonderment hero, they havo avllablo marvelous ability. Unless commanded by skillful Kuropean olllccrs, it is hardly considered piobablo that Boer farmers would havo assumed n feigned position, as theyj evidently did, in front of tlie right column with tbe intention of retreating from it to their real lino of defense nnd of inducing tho Britisli to attack over a fire-swept tone. Tho speciat dispatches describing tho engagement again fail to confirm Gen eral White's official account that tho Boers wero pushed back several miles. ncn it is considered that tlio censor warcorrcsiionilent of tbe Daily Mail, de scribing the engagement at I-ndysmitli, pays: By 10 o'clock tho Britisli had driven :itMtiitiiivwwmwyTfvrnfyyrfffvyvyrtywvimivvrrwmj CLOTHING HOSIERY RUBBERS EHATS Almost anything you want will be found at j a" THE NEW YORK RACKET YARNS CORSETS ; SHOES :OVERCOATS : BOOTS E UNDERWEAR Lowest cash prices for best: quality of goods.

Mrs. Huron Is tho widow of General Hasten, formerly chief signal ollicerof the army, who died about 10 years ago, and is a sister of John It. Mc Lean, democratic candidate for governor of Ohio. Mrs Huron has no children, and slnco hor husband's death has niailo her homo with her mother. She Is n woman of largo means, about -10 years of age, and popular in tho beet society circles of Washington. Tho date for tho wedding has not been fixed. The admiral's llrst wife died in 1872. fiho was tho daughter of an ox-governor ot Vermont. Ouo child from that mar riage, a son, is now living nt Now York.

Preparations to call out tho second army, corps taken in conjiiuclon with tho extraordinary naval activity, hns again aroused tho belief that tho government bus reason to anticipate Kuropean hostility. Still It Is doubtful whether tho second corps will bo actually called out. That development depends on two circum stances s First, tho attitude of Euroonn nations as evinced bythotlrst furious Ilrltish revorse. Second, uj on tho Judgment of Gen oral Duller, Who llmiing conditions not favorable as expected, may demnnd moro troops.
