COL. KELLY BELIEVED 10 BE THE HERO A Bombay Firm Offered to Supply Umra Khan. STORY OF THE MARCH ————— CALCUTTA, India, April 22.—A dispatch was received at Simla this morning from Sir Robert Low, the commander of the British expedition operating against Umra Khan, confirming the announcement made in these dispatches last night that the Chitral fort had been relieved. The last previous advices received from the front stated that the column command- ed by Col. Kelly, which had been advancing -upon Chitral from Gilgit, after passing over the Shander pass between Gilgit and Chitral, at a height of from 12,000 to 14,- 000 feet above the level of the sea, had ar- rived at a spot fifteen miles from Chitral, and it is therefore supposed that it was Col. Kelly who relieved the British garri- son. Gen. Gatacre’s flying column has reached Dir and the main body is following rapidly. A sensation has been caused in military and other circles by the discovery by Sir Robert Low at Miankalaj of a letter to Umra Khan from a Bombay firm, offering to supply him with every kind of modern weapon and inclosing photographs of quick- firing guns. DR. ROBERTSON RELIEVED. British Troops Succor the Chitral Fortress. As has been already stated in The Star in speaking of this campaign, Chitral is a region on the southern side of the Hindu Kush, into which one of the principal mountain passes opens, leading from the valley of the Oxus to Cashmir and Pesha- wur. Recently Umra Khan, a Pathan rob- ber, raided the country, on the accession of a new ruler, and the British representa- tive, Surgeon Major Robertson, was obliged to shut himself and his few troops in the fortress of Chitral. In passing to his succor, says the New York Herald, a party of Sikh soldiers, under the gallant officer, Captain Ross, was cut to pieces, and two other English officers, Lieuten- ants Edwards and, Fowler, were taken prisoners and only‘ recently relased. Ac- cordingly, three brigades of first-rate troops were collected, amounting in all to 14,000 men, under the command of a most experienced frontier officer, Sir Robert Low, and on April 3 they crossed the In- dian frontier to “‘smasa” Umra Khan and to deliver Dr. Robertson and his slender garrison at Chitral. This has been accomplished. Fighting in the Malakand Pass. The troops made a rapid march to the Malakand pass. The advance guard of the guides had only gone a little way into the pass when the Swatis were found swarm- ing on all sides behind the “sangars,” or stone breastworks, which they had erected at every suitable corner. The pass itself is splendidly adapted for defense, as in many places it is only wide enough for two bull- Ocks to pass each other. However, the British worked their way on step by step. the mountain and machine guns gradually shelling the natives out of their defenses. The Swatis fought pluckily enough, en- couraged by their priests waving flags, but — white garments made them an easy target. At last the struggle culminated at a sharp, narrow bend in the pass, where the natives had fixed their strongest defenses. Then the Gordon Highlanders, the Scot- tish Borderers and the Thirty-seventh Do- gras charged up ithe hill in the face of a heavy fire to dislodge the Swatis. It was a tough job with the bayonet, as the Swats fought hand to hand, but. when the guides executed a flank movement the day was won and the tribesmen fled, leaving the pass in British hands. Eleven men had been killed and thirty-three wounded on the British side, the latter including eight officers, but the native loss was extremely heavy. * The first brigade, being in light marching order, went on beyond the pass into Swat, where they soon encountered 5,000 tribe- men blocking the road. Another smart en- gagement followed. The third brigade ‘be- ing left behind as a base, the first and sccond brigades marched toward the Swat river and succeeded in.bridging the stream near Alakand. A strong hostile force from Upper Swat oe the British under heavy fire during t! operation, but when the bridge was finished the trops pushed rfip- idly ‘across, and the Eleventh Bengal Lancers routed the enemy in dashing style. ; Umra Khan’s Collapse. Dispatches printed in The Star after this showed that Umra Khan’s power was melting from him. Some further fighting took place, but Umra Khan, the “‘Napoleon of the Hindu Kush,” as he is called, was by this time practically subdued and most of his remain- ing followers dispersed and went home. Meanwhile, however, the tribesmen who were engaged in laying siege to the fort of Chitral were pressing the garrison hard, and on April 16, they carried’ the mines within ten yards of the walls. Dr. Rovert- son’s supplies were not expected to last longer than the present month, and ac- cordingly his position was growing more critical every day. Difiiculties of the March. ‘The country which the troops have had to traverse is of extraordinary difficulty. A graphic account of it has recently been given by an English officer, who is per- sonally acquainted with the region. Pic- ture snow-capped mountains of dry brown rock, eight, nine, ten, sixteen, eighteen, twenty and more thousand feet high, not a green thing on them, and below terrible defiles, worn away by the fierce torrents that rave tossed themselves along in these solitudes through the ages. The troops of the invaders, commanded as they were from the all but inaccessible slopes, took their lives in their hands, for the protec- tion of flanking parties was almost out of the question. Nor was gun fire all they had to fear. ‘The mountaineers have raised rock throw- ing to a science. Their forts are protected by immense collections of rock, which are sent hurtling down the shingle slopes with terrific force. All night at intervals, if the men dread being surprised, these rocks are kept crashing down. It is wonderful how effective this simple means of defense and offense is. Strange as it may seem, when nineteenth century troops are coneerned, nothing is more terrifying than these falling rocks. The effects are shocking in the extreme. If men or mules are hit limbs are carried clean away. Of course, apart altogether from the mountaineers, there is nature shakirg down rocks on her own account, by the agency of the wind. ‘Then in the ordinary sense of the term there are no roads. A few carts were got over the Malakand Pass by Sir Robert Low, but they were not able to go further. — St. Aloysius Sunday School. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week the children of St. Aloysius Sun- day school will present the pleasing oper- etta “The Tyrolien Queen,” in Gonzaga College Hall. These plays of St. Aloysius Sunday school children are beginning to be regarded as an annual treat by the Catholic population of the city, and no better test oe the ability with which they are rendered can be produced than the large audiences that always greet the little ones. Most of the parts are taken by children between the ages of ten and fourteen years, while many of the little actors and actresses are even younger. The object of the entertainment is to provide a library for the Sunday school children. —_— Partition of Estate. A bill in equity has been filed by Louise Bowdler and others agairst Julia Bowdler and others for the partition of the estate of the late Louise C. Gowzenbach.
