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

London, Oct. 31. 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.
