S ane of them maintain there is nothing lefr for General Buller but to resign. The Sr. .Indies Gazette is particularly scathing. Referring to General Buller's rejHirr it says. Never in the history of armies did it happen that genera Is scribbled their confessions of failure and defear, of useless deaths of men and of discredit to the flag in a nianncr which suggests a careful selection from the forced jocularity of the funny man, the slangy chatter of the horsey woman and tiie gabble of (ho the smokingroom late in flic evening." The < flobe decbive.s that "a more pitiable record of indecision in plan and concession in execution we have seldom read," and adds that what little reputation General Buller had left has been scattered to the winds. Practically no developments have been reported so far in today's South African cables. A dispatch from Warrenton, dated Tuesday April 17, says: Finding the Boers busy making new trenches we exploded lyddite shells, following up theso with tho Maxims. j.neir umDuiunce was aiterwara .seen ou the spot.
