Plunkett, Surprised on Expedition in Somaliland and Over- whelmed by Native Infantry, Only 37 Out of 221 Escaping. S .° LONDON, April 28.—The War Office to-day received from Brig-Gen. fanning, in command of the British forces in Somaliland, a despatch ‘dated twenty miles westward of Galadi, Somaliland, April 18, as follows: ) “{ regret to report that a fiying column, under the command of Col. Bobbe, which left Galadi April 10 to reconnoltre the road to Walwal, had @ most serious check April 17. On the morning of April 17 Col. Cobbe ‘was et Gumburru, forty miles westward of Galadi, and had decided to re- turn to Galadi, owing to the serious difficulty in finding the road to Wal- ‘sval and to the shortness of water. He was about to leave his zareba (pro- tected camp), when firing was heard in the direction of a small party. under the command of Capt. Olivey, which had been sent in a westerly “direction to reconnoitre. At 9.16 in the morning Col. Cobbe despatched Col. Plunkett with 160 en of the Second Battalion of the King’s African Rifles, forty-eight men the Second Sikhs and’ twelve native scouts and two Maxim guns for the ion of Cap. Olivey, if necessary. As a matter of fact, Capt. Olivey d not been engaged. Col, Plunkett, on joining the detachment, continued to push on. At 11.45 Gol. Cobbe heard a heavy fire in the direction taken by Col, Plunkett, and ft about 1 in the afternoon a few fugitives coming in reported that Col, junkett had been defeated with loss. ATTACKED AT CLOSE QUARTERS. “The news has been fully corroborated since and I ‘have to report the fetal loss of Col. Plunkett’s party, with the exception of 37 Yaos who have arrive: here. “The latest information extracted from the fugutives is to the effect that Col. Plunkett pushed on after the enemy's force to the open country seven miles westward of Gumburru, where he was attacked by a very strong force ‘@f mounted troops and the enemy’s infantry, who attacked at close quarters. |“He kept back the enmy until he had no more ammunition, when he formed a square and charged with bayonets in the direction of Col. Cobbes gareba. He moved some distance in this manner, but a great many men, fncluding Ool. Plunkett himself, wore killed or wounded by the pursuing enemy. “At last the enemy’s infantry overwhelmed the square and annihilated fthem all, with the exception of the thirty-seven fugitives above mentioned.” ‘The despatch closes with a list of tho “officers and men missing, and mo doubt killed in action,” namely Col. A. W. V. Plunkett, Capts. Johnston, Stewart, Olivey, Morris and McKinnon, and Lieuts. Gaynor and Bell, ali of the King’s African Rifles; Capt. Vizey, of the Second Sikhs; Capt. Sime, of ¢he Indian medical staff; two white privates, forty-eight men of the Sec- nd Sikhs, and 124 men of the African Rifles. * Two maxim guns were lost. EADY FOR FIGHT. ‘Another despatch from Gen. Manning, who immediately on hearing of the defeat of Col. Plunkett started for Gamburru with 460 men, says fur- ther information reached him from Col. Cobbe to the effect that.the latter swith’220-troops was encamping with plenty of food and supplies and four days’ water, He as about a thousand camels and does not’ think he can withdraw from his position without assistance, because the scrub is thick ‘and the enemy's fdrees seem Ifkely to act on the offensive, {24 Gen. Manning adds: i ' “I maroh again directly and expect to arrive at Gumburru to-morrow at moon. I shall accomplish the extrication of Col. Cobbe with as much trans- port as possible and return to Galadi. I can only carry sufficient water for the march to Gumburru, returning directly. I shall therefore be unable to advance againet the enemy if the latter holds back.” ; : PARLIAMENTARY.
