JULY 11th', 1901. IRE SHAM FIGHT AT KINGSTON CAMP THE TACTICS OF THE BOERS WERE ADOPTED T0 SOME EXTENT. An Eye-Witness Tells How the Forces were Arranged and flow the Attack Failedâ€"There was one way it conYd have Suceeededâ€"Col. Sam. knows it. (Special to the Watchman-\Varder) The incidents of interest during the second week of the great. divisional military camp were similar in many respects to those of the first. week. Capt. W. S. Hughes. brother of the 0.0. of the 45th Victoria Regiment, commands one of the best companies. Capt. Clyde Caldwell, one of the South African officers is also a mem- ber of the 14th. After the great rain and storm of Saturday night, the men were so wet and overworked that “Divine Service” was dispensed with. The 14th Princess of Wales Rifles witfi their excellent band visited the camp and presented a fine appearance. On Monday the great review before General O’Grady-Haly was carried out. A preliminary practice took place on Saturday when the two brothers, Col. Jack Hughes and Col. Sam. Hughes, each commanded a brigade, Major Sylvester thus com- manded the 45th while Col. Sam. was acting as brigadier, COl. Hodgâ€" ins being ill. On Monday, Col. Montizambert commanded the divis- ion; Col. Hodgins- the 5th and Col. Jack Hughes the 6th brigade. The fields were knee-deep in mud in places, yet the fellows went through the movements with great precision. Among those witnessing the review in carriages were: Hon. Dr. Borden and his daughters; Mrs. Sam Hughes with her daughters Misses Roby and Aleeu; Mrs. W. S. Hughes and Mrs. Fortt, (nee Mia Keenan of Lindsay). This party naturally thought the 45th.did the best of all. Major Hopkins and Capt. J. A. Williamson arranged an excursion for the 45th and 46th regiments among the thousand islands to Alexandria Bay and return for Wednesday. Honors for the 45th. The closing of the Rm al Military College took place on Monday after- noon and had special interest for Lindsay inasmuch as Garnet Hughes came» out first,- winning thd‘ Gover- nor. General's Gold Medal and the Sword of Honor, besides other priz- es. The'firstr three in order Hughes, Cameron and Chipman, each refused a commission in the Imperial army, No. 2 C0415 Victoria. Regiment claim some- credit and honor in two of the three" fiam ed. Hughes commanded‘ No. 2 company when a lad of (175” years, and Cameron in 1900 though resident in London \et was attachul to that company for camp. '1 he Sham Fight On “cdnwday, in preparation for the sham “battle of 'lhursday, (301.1 Sam. Hughes placed Major Neill in command at companies 1,2, and 3 with instructions to post himself anywhere he Wished on Barriefield 4' Tieights, while Major Sylvester should attack him with companies 4, 5 and 6. The attack succeeded admirably at the outset, Major Sylé tester having planned the prelimin- ary well ; but towards the concluâ€" sion it became evident that Major Neill had been more wide,,aw ake than - was expected. His seeming careless outpost defence was designed to mislead the attack and expose .the plans against him. Keeping his main force well under cover and disâ€" tributed, he poured withering volleys into the attack unexpectedly. Capt Henley and Capt. Williamson man- aged their companies admirably, so the colonel said. As should be the case the c‘aSualties of the attack were greater than of the defence .Both Manor Sylvester and Major Neill managed their forces to the entire satisiaction of Col. Sam, who acted as umpire. 'On Thursday the sham battle inâ€" e entire nine regiments volving th‘ took place. The defence force was 40t] Grenville, and 49tn ‘ The defence had to on {{ingétdn from 1!} Sam ~Hughes were en1 tions on the right from -the marine road the The Grand Review advance with Col. Lighthall s 16th Regimen? held the overlooking ridges while Capt. Winslow of the 36th held two isolated mounds on the immediate left. The 40th and the balance of the 46th guarded the distant left. The rules were that any force expos- ed and being fired on at 400 yards Cl‘ loss should at, once halt and cease fire. The attack began near the head of Dead Man’s Bay. Captain fStaples had been giyen orders to ‘keep his men well under cover and not to fire until the enemy were within 200 yards. The reason was that no enemy could advance that would not be exposed for hundreds of yards to the fire from the other Companies, all within 400 yards 0f the position. As the enemy advancâ€" ed, volleys from the unseen defenders‘ xx ere poured into them. Smokelessl powder being used, the defence could not be located. Major Neill on the right kept his companies so well un-‘ der cover that after blowing the“ enemy to pieces a dozen times, and: they heedless of the rules continuing to advance, simply let them word! on, and, when at five paces arrested? the whole lot. I So with Capts. Staples and Wil- liamson. They lay low, letting the companies on their rear on the heights and on their flank blaze into the enemy, who despite the rules,‘ persisted in not being put out of ac- tion though fired on by five times their number for from 800 to 250 yards. Finally when the thrice-slaugh- tered enemy came within about 130 yards Capts. Staples and Williamson poured in three volleys that in ad- tual warefare would have wiped out as many regiments as the enemy had companies. The umpire evidently, not seeing the field, and not knowing that the three companies of the en- ‘emy had been annihilated four or five times, and supposing there were three regiments instead of three companies only, suggested that Capt; Staples could not have held the posit- tion. “by half as many Scandinav- ian Boers entirely unsupported, held an infinitely weaker position against thousands of Britain's best soldiers backed up by artillery at Magersâ€" fontein until annihilated while at Modder riVer and in scores of other places in South Africa, positions not nearly so strong were held against greatly superior numbers successfully. Therew were five rifles covering every avenue of advance for every rifle advancing on that position at Dead Man's Bay. The defence, save a few decoys were under perfect vover “I; while the adVance was open to both front and flank fires. Had there b 10,000 men in attack on that pd' tion instead of only about 60 they would haVe been wiped out of exis- tence..\1aj0r SylVester and Col. Light hall of the 16th gave valuable as sistence in the main defence, while Major \eill, on the west side 01 Dead Man' 5 Bay, near the head and Capts Staples and .Williamson in the quar- :' ries displayed great shrewdness. Lt. Patterson in command of the right .hali of the Woodville Highlanders “"‘AAAAAAAAAA gave a fine account of himself. When the attack failed to halt and be "kilâ€" led“ according $9 the rules, Lt. Pat- terson lay under cover; on the south west of the quarry and as the enemy came around the bend of the bay is the open, he poured in volley after? volley at 125 yards. ' The main force of the attack mere~ ‘ly made a feint on the centre and left of the position. They evident- ]y planned to turn the right of the defence and then press home the . attack . The volunteers all speak in the highest terms of the value: of the two sham battles, some declaring that they learned more in those two days than in all the rest of the camp But the. 45th, Victorias, following their colonel's policy do not believg‘ in having the enemy to know every- thing about their deience. The company officers as well as Majors Sylvester and Neill trapped the en- emy beautifully, by reserving their fire under perfect cover to within 150 to 120. yards, the defence on higher positions covering the enemy. AS was pro-supposed and in fact, preâ€" understood, the attack failed. There is just one way, Col. Sam. says, that the position could be taken, and he would not state it. Perhaps he is waiting for another year. On Parade Thursday night; Major Kent, May- "or of Kingston and his wife gave an i“At Home” in the Kingston Annou- ries in honor of the volunteers. The young ofiicers of the 45th turned out in goodly numbers and seemed to ‘have won their way with the fair maids of Kingston. On Friday a ifmarch out”-through‘ Kingston took place. As’Col.

As Minis- ter of Agriculture, he was sure that -the yield would be nearer 30 bushels than 25, which would mean 60, 000, - 000 bushels raised in the province. With regard to the additional lab- or required to handle the crop, he had formerly Estimated it would reâ€" quire 15,000 men, but now he thought it would be quite 20,000 that would be required, and that would only mean one extra man to each two farmers. The reports from the Northwest Territories are. equally good.- The wheat in many cases is headed and no damage is reported, from any cause. It is expected harvest will commence about Aug 10.
