A Camel Squad Follows Flee
ing Leader
Landon, September 6—The war
office received thisevenu.g the fol
lowing dispatch dated at Ouiilui
tnau yeste'day from the sirdar,
General Sir Herbert Kitchener:
“This morning the British and
Egyptian H igs were hoisted with
due ceremony upon the walla of
the Sferaya (the palace) in Kha -
toum.
“All the British wounded have
left for 4b«diu in barges towed by
steamers. I saw them before leav
ing. They were all doing well and
Were comfortable.
“The cavilry sent in pursuit ol
the khalifa were compelled to
abandon the attempt,owing to the
exhaustion of the horses, bpi 1
have ordered camel squads to con
tinue the pursuit.
The latest accounts of the cap*
ture of Gmdurm n add but little
to those received yesterday. All
agree as to the brilliancy of the
cavalry chaige of the Twenty-first
Lancers.
Tins was the great feature of the
battle. Eveiy man who tell in ihe
charge was immediately hacked to
pieces by the fanatical dervis ies,
yet the Lancers reiuriued us coolly
as if on parade.
Oi.ecorporal, covered with blood
aud reeling in his saddle, was
ordered t> fall wilt. He waved his
bent lance and shouted:
“Never!”
When Lieutenant Grenfell was
missed, L eutenant M mtrnorency,
with a few comrades, made a most
gallant attempt to recover the
bjdv aud held the enemy at bay
with revolvers. They secured the
body acid then lo«t it again as the
horse on which it was placed
shied.
Thete was another otemorable
incidiut while MacDonald’s Black
brigade was cautiously crossing

The derv shea reformed and
with ru-enlorcements made a des

corps, believing they had it. at
their mercy, ihe corps retired
steadily without confusion. ,
MacDonu.d’s brigade, assisted
by tLe guubvu'H, came to the
