London, Eng.., (By Cable. (ien, Bir Charles Warren, with his British army di vision, originally numbering about 16,000 troops, has been forced to retreat south of the Tugela river, Natal. A dispatch from the head laager, near Ladysmith, states that the British left 1.600 dead on the battlefield Wednesday, the dav of the fighting at Splon kop. The Warren's gomes in an official dispateh from Gen, Bir Redvers Buller, British comm ander-in-chief in Natal, from his headquarters at Bpearman’s Camp. Perhaps the remainder of General Buller's army, which was north of the Tugela, has also retreated, The General's dispatoh says he decided to withdraw “the force’ to the south side. This, taken with adjoining sen- tences, apparently refers only to Warren's division, but is construed in somes quarters in London to mean Buller's entire foree, It is believed in London that if maining troops under Buller have not re- treated already they must do so soon, All or part of General Lyttieton's brigade, it is now known, went to the help of Warren at Spion kop and the reverse Signs indicate that Buller may have risked all his avaliable troops in trying to hold the kop. General Buller, It is stated, will probably try next to force his way to Ladysmith by another route, He has tried the central and western routes, and the only seams to be the one east of ( of Weenen.
