The number of books called for and supplied was 10,416, a daily average of 400, jthey fired at the retiring horsemen, out a9 not strictly carried out, and many fires were burning far into the night, giving the enemy a splendid opportunity of following their tactics as at Abu Klea, which was to snipe us all night long. A View of the Situation. However, not a shot was fired, and when the moon -ose, flooding the whole land- seape with her soft meilow Nght, nothing but the heavy breathing of the troops und the occasional amorous bray of donkeys and growling of camels broke the stillness. An order arrived at dawn for the com- mander, Maj. Gordon, to cqyer the extreme right flank of the square, and the Melik was steaming along shore to take up her posi- tion. Not being able to land, I climbed up to her aft battery, whence I could view the country around. From this position I com- manded a most comprehensive view of the whole situation. It was a formidable force that faced the desert that morning. Some 22,00) strong; certainly the largest invading army ever seen in the Soudan. But that 1 knew the admirable fire discipline of that force and the capabilities of the Maxims, the sight of the vast dervish host steadily advancing to sive battle would certainly have opened up a vista of uncertainties. From the begin- ning there could bé no doubt how the fight would end. The Khalifa, always vacillating and uncertain up to the last, had decided to take the very course that meant certain destrpction tu his army—and that was to attack us while in square formation. In the old days there was always a pos- sibilay cf fenatics getting into a square if they persistently rushed it. But now, with the superi especially Max- ims, the Khalifa’s tactics were suicidal. Some say that his intention was to attack at night, w: weuld have been a novel arture or the have a dread of figh sunrise. However, fearing thic pos ser Khalifa’s Hres to that we were coming out to attack him, and this is the reason they waited, expec dawn. Probably our searchlights from the new gunboats had more to do in keepirig them quiet during the night than the Sirdar’s pies, for it was afterward ascertained that t least 10,00) of the enemy threw away their weapcnrs and fled back to Omdurman, crying if the English could control the sum surely Allah was with them. The Firing Bexins. Soon little puffs of smoke from the der- vish lines told us the fight had opened as t of dervishes, spies Into the sound broke the stillress as square seemed still askep. Presently 2 blue haze rolied up from our extreme and the blast of a gun seemed to star the whole square into activity. The 324 Field Battery, known as Witlam’s, was first in action, and what splendid action. Shell after shell broke the dogged advance of the Khadifa’s men on our left center, and plouged buge furrows through their re- scrves, massing in a sand hollow in t reer; then the Maxims commenced stem- ming. In a few moments ail our artillery was in action and Maxims at work. The gunboats covering the flanks shelled the advancing herdes. Stil the advance continued, tac Dervishes struggling over the hills of dent and dying. With heads erect and ste it they came on, all seemingly takin yet. T time and dressing by their standards white flags. Just when our infantry getting into acticn—and I took out watch to time the slaughter, whicn I pected to last about ten minutes—a Di, standard, with its fleet of white sail, mov- ed off to our right, and the dervish line shifted with it. The heavy fire from the square lulled for a moment. What were the enemy up to? Surely they were not beaten. There =| my no hurry or confusion about the move- ments, though our guns immediately train- ed upon this retiring force, and, as thoy spread over the hills to our right, the Meiik made some pretty shots, spotting the biack hillside with clusters of white gibbas. On a spur of this hill trending toward the Nile | Maj. Young. with a battery of horse ariil- | lery, supported by the Egyptian valry and camel corps, had taken up pesition, and we3 shelling the enemy's center when the Dervishes sudGenly debouched through a cleft in the hills toward the Nile. Young was compelled to retire, leavi ore of his Mmber.s on the ridge. Too boldiy taking up another position further no: he was compelled, after losing seven horses, to leave two of his guns and retire with the cavalry, who had been making a 53- preme effort to cover the retreat of the camel corps, which, too slow in movement. was now left by the cavalry to fight it out as best they could. The Cool Camel Men. At this moment the gunboat Melik, un ler the command of Maj. Gordon—nephew of the bero of Khartoum—luckily came upon the scene, and I am not exaggerating the importance of the Melik’s arrival by say- ing that she saved the Egyptian camel corps from utter annihilation.

About sixty camel men bit the dust tn the first few volleys, but the searching fire of the Melix made the en>my waver, and soon they commerced to retire, apparently liUe dixconcerted, though the ground was str ed with their @ and avirg 1300 ain upon the fleid. now slowly trudged northward tow black dard, round which from U5tke) to 2),000 white gibbas glistened in the sun.

The eral immediately formed two sides square with flanking Maxims, and toughest infantry fight of the 4: menced. The dervishes steadily advanced with su- preme confidence in their power to destroy the HEgypiian battalions, for thousands of these men confronting us had dealt with Egyptians under Hicks Pacha, but this ume they soon found that they had to do battle with, though similar material as of yore, an article that had been drilled, dis- ciplined and molded into a splendid fig! nting machine by the patience and perseverance of British officers In spite of the excellence of the Egyptian fire the dervishes came on, leaving hills slain and dying in their wake, still cv dent that at close quarters the Egyptia: must fall back. In perfect touch with each other, the Egyptians steadily held their ground. The Sirdar, now seeing the serio: ness of this fresh attack, in answer Macdonald's request for a British regiment at last sent Wauchope to his support with the Scaforths and Lincolns.

The Khalifa’s tactics, after all, were not by any means contemptible. He made a strong frontal attack while he tried te work round our flanks. On his right the British brige appeared te strong for him, so he tried the left, which was composed of Khedival troops, the Sir- dar unwittingly playing into his hands by the rather premature move on to Omdur- man in breaking up the square and placing the Egyptian brigade in the open, giving the dervishes great advantage, which they at once took. However, “all's well that ends well was a lucky day for the combined fo: the Sirdar.
