LEE WAS ENTITLED 70 VICTORY AT ANTIETAM By Private I mused Wire. London, Aug. 16.—The report of the umpire on the battle Antietnm, Gen eral lank Hamilton, In just out. The reproduction wai by British regular and volunteer troops In the maneuvers <>n Salisbury plain. Sir lank declares that under modern conditions Lee would have won a great victory. General Hamilton says that the bat tles of the American civil war are much neglected by European students. The chief lesson to be gained from the reproduction of the battle of Antietam is that with modern artillery, heavy field guns, howitzers and quick-firing ordnance field guns the position of the defender would be changed. Instead of being forced to withdraw over the Potomac, Lee with these weapons could have secured a sweeping victory* The commander who was Lee’s un derstudy on Salisbury plain, General Allenby, smashed up the enemy’s ad vance and the disposition of his troops were such that they entirely deceived the attacking side. The Lee of to day, in General Hamilton’s Judgment, by vlrtuo of a line of defense filled wltl modern artillery armament can neu trallxe the numerical supremacy which Lee had to face.
