" Commandfr of the Force Laridi. Cape Town. Oct. ai.-JCIeneral Bul ler, commander of British forces in South Africa, arrived this morning on board the transport Iunottnr Cas tle. The transport had an uneventful voyage. October 23d she parsed the transport Nineveh, which is bringing the Xew South Wales contingent. Men on the transports cheered enthusias tically. The first war news was re ceived from the homeward bound steamship Australasian yesterday. She signalled: "Boers defeated three battler?: Symons killed." ilvneral Buller landed at 0 o'clock tlfiK morning. An enormous crowd cheered him wildly while he was driven to the government house. On arriving at that place he received a salute of seventeen guns. The transport Zlbenghla. which sail ed from the Mersey October 2d with field artillery, arrived here today, af ter many breakdowns. It is po5siblethat TUiIler will start for Natal immediately. in or Troops Called Ont. "London, Oct. 31. The war office wired Oeneral Buller that three ex tra battalions and one mountain bat tery, with reserve men. will start for the cape within ten Baxys. These men will fill "the places oZ those who have been killed, wounded or captured. The war office haa" decided to call for permanent t service first class re servo men of the Suffolk. Essex and Derbyshire regiments and Sherwood Foresters. The first battalion of these commands will be immediately mobil ized for service in South Africa. The Nobility ftolncto the War. London. Oct. 31. Even the nephews of the Duke of Abercorn are going to the front with the British troops in South Africa. Parla Newspapers Display Boer Flags Paris. Oct. 31. Offices of newspa pers of Nationalist tendencies dis played flags of the Transvaal and the Orange Free State when news of the British disaster alt Ladysmith was received. England Appalled. London, Oct. 31. The disaster to the British at Ladysniith and the capture of two regiments and a battery after terrible slaughter, has appalled Eng land and demonstrated that the Boers are .good strategists as well as fight ers. Three times . in succession they have deceived the British by retreat ing, and turned what are classed in England as British victories into prac tical reverses. Patriotic Englishmen now pray for deliverance from any more such victories. The effect of today's news to Eng land is crushing, (iloom oppresses the whole population.. There ls.no popular anger or demand for reprisals. Gen eral White's manly assumption of all responsibility checks it, and it is too early to expect reaction against the government. Forebodings of worse to come and anxiety for details from La dysniith are the main features of the public mind at present. All experts agree that the situation of British forces at Ladysmith is pre carious. Its capture or annihilation is by no means Impossible, and such a blow to British prestige might easily have grave conseqiiences elsewhere. Opinions of Two Military Authorities London, Oct. 31. General Wolseley, who wis quartermaster general in the South African campaign in 1879, said in an interview .today that4 with a su perior force marching against Jiim, General AVnite had no option but to take the offensive. Nobody, unless oil the spot, could Justly judge the situation. He" would '.not venture a criticism, though he knew: the coun try well. The public must remember that they, through their political rep resentatives, had placed 10,000 men in the power of 30,000 equally good fighters. ' . ' r-. . 4M, General Chamier, Royal Artillery, -oHtWi- nceiifced White of a serious error ot judgment in ; sending troops c out in the darkness, and said that such a course was dangerous, almost negligent. . " Nothing Known or the Situation. London. Nov. 1, G a. m. Nothing can now be ascertained concerning the sit uation at Ladysniith. Inquiries. at the war office at 2 o'clock this morning elicited the information that nothing had been received there, and the offi cials are as ignorant as the public of the extent of British losses. Anxious inquirers thronged the war office until a late hour, but they could learn uoch iug of the casualties. It is reported, with obvious probability, that the ttle giaph from Ladysmith to Cape Town is interrupted, indicating that Boers have got to the southward and have isolated AVhite. There is reason to be lieve that General Buller left Cape Town for Durban on the Dunottar Cas tle Tuesday night. The News In .London. Dublin, f Oct. 31. The excitement caused here hy the reverse to British arms in South Africa almost amount ed to consternation. Crowds gathered at newspaper offices and business came to a general stop. Among the majority of people sj-mpathy and regret were as sincere as were the previous re joicings over Irish valor displayed at Glencoe. The more extreme Irish na tionalists, however, made no attempt to conceal their delight at the defeat. The Evening Telegraph says: "A big bully triumphant is no lovely spectacle. A big bully beaten is the very acme of disgrace. The feeling of righteous rejoicing at the triumph of the forces of liberty is mingled with regret that Irish soldiers participated in the disaster of the oppressor." The Evening Herald says the dea of England menacing Russia in Man churia or meeting her advance on the Indian frontier is a bit laughable af ter White's message. Fancy opposing ical soldiers with the padded chests of the Gloucestershire regiment. The Dutch Rejoice. Antwerp. Oct. 31. Enthusiasm In Holland and Belgium over the British defeat is uncontrolled. Cries of "Long live the Boers!" were heard in jthe streets when the news was made pub lic. People in cafes, streets and cars embraced and congratulated each other. Catholic Bishop Arnheim has directed prayers throughout Catholic Holland for the success of the Boers. Leyds Permitted to Use ths Cable. , London, Oct. 31. The Marquis of Lansdowne, secretary of state fof war, has granted the request of Dr. -Ley ds, European agent of the Transvaal gov rnment, that he be allowed to cable ro Pretoria asking for details as to Boer losses. COMMENTS OF TIIF. PRESS. All the Papers Freely Admit the Grav ity or the Sltnation. London. Oct. 31. Tho cabinet is summoned to meet tomorrow.

Three Alarms of Fire Turned In -Tiro Steamers on the Wharves Cotton Platform Goes Sailing: Stores Flood ed and Goods Badly Damaged Saw mills Suffer Scrlou Loss Tldelllzhef Than During: August Hurricane 'Newbern, N. C, Oct. 31. Special.-- The heaviest storm in years prevail ed Monday night. The tide is two feet higher than in August. All 'mer chants sustained heavy loss. The es timated loss to Newbern is fifty thou sand dollars. The damage to saw mills is ten thousand. Heavy loss of lumber and logs reported. Two warehouses, with heavy storage of lime, caught . fire, but the firemen ex tinguished it in a few hours. Two steamboats were washed on the docks. Water up in (Middle street to Front. The government ship yard at Union Point is covered several feet, deep, with heavy loss of building mate rial. The large cotton platform on Craven street, laden with .cotton, floated into the imiddle of the street making it impassible. , V Wind and tide are favorable, and its is supposed that the steamer Neuse has floated. Capt. Dixon of the Susie, was drowned at Jacksonville while at tempting to reach the steamer with ai small boat. The following report of the storm is copied from the Newburn Journal: The storm which set in early yester day, continued to increase all day, at dark the wind was blowing with great violence and sheets of rain were fall-' ing. ' About 8. o'clock it was reported around the streets that the tide waa rising-dangerously high. . It (had been high all the afternoon, but it was not until after dark that it began to back up on the docks and into the streets.- A visit towards the docks showed that the tide-was indeed up. On Cra ven street the water covered the side walk above the cotton exchange and a little further along it was knee deep. On the docks the water was several feet in depth. On Middle street the water was within four doors of South Front street: Union Point and East Front street Were all afloat. Early in the evening the water waa up in the electric light house and the lights were gone, adding darkness to ' the other evils. The belts were taken1 off in time to save them; as were those at Meadow's mill. Horses were taken from the stables in this vicin ity and brought up town. , Shortly after ten o'clock an alarm of fire was turned in from box 56.' The lime in Cutler's warehouse be low South Front street had set fire to the building, and the firemen work ed waist deep. Numerous drays were carrying out goods from the building and for several hours a stream was turned on at times as the fire broke out among the heated lime barrels. Shortly after this fire was 'under way, word came that the lime on the Eastern Carolina iDispatch. dock was' ablaze. A horse and wagon Went down to the foot of Craven street and laid a line of hose. The water was well up on the horse's side in the street and work was done under the greatest difficulty. A gang of men on the dock were employed in rolling the barrels of lime into the river and about 50 barrels were dis posed of in this way. . . - Shortly before midnight a general fire alarm was turned in: Crowds of men gathered on Middle street, pre pared to do what they could to save property. A boat was used to reach the -stores below and the tide wns well up on the floors, causing, large losses of flour and other perishable - goods. The wind blew wry hard at. mid nigh!, shutters ! were being . carried away, breaking glass Avas, falling around and it was perilous to be out in the streets. ' ' - " ' ' Of course no word has come up from below, only surmise could be made of how the people at Ocracoke and Ports mouth were faring. The tide was two feet higher than during the-August hurricane. 'The same height below would carry off the towns and leave little to tell the tale. But it may not be as bad there in proportion. Terrible Night at Wrlshtsvllle. The following is copied from y ester- , day's Wilmington Star: A telephone mesasge at 4 o'clock this 'morning from Mr. J. H.

'The tide was alarmingly high,- sweeping over the turnpike, and the water in his yard was seven to eight feet in depth.
