2. Gen. Sir Herbert Kitchener, with the
Khalifa Abdullah's black standard, cap
tured in battle, entered Oinburman, the
capital of Mahdism. at 4 o'clock this af
ternoon, at the head of his Anglo-
Egyptian army, after routing the
Dervishes and dealing a death-blow to
Mahdism,
Roughly, the Anglo-Egyptian losses
were 200. Thousands of the Dervishes
were killed or wounded.
At dawn today the Anglo-Egyptian
cavalry, patrolling toward Omdiirman
iiscovered the Dervishes advancing to
the attack In battle array, chanting war
songs. Their front consisted of infantry
and cavalry, stretched out three or four
miles, Countless banners fluttered over
their masses and copper and brass drums
resounded through tho serried ranks of
the savage warriors, who advanced
unwaveringly, with all their old-time
ardor. -
At 7.80 a. m. the enemy crowded the
ridges above the Anglo-Egyptian camp
and advanced Bteadlly in enveloping for
mation. General Kitchener's artillery
opened fire at 7.40, which was answered
by the Dervish riflemen.
Their attack developod on General
Kitchener's left; and In accordance with
their traditional tactics, thoy swept
down the hillside with the design of
rushing the flank. But the withering fire
maintained for fifteen minutes by all the
