London, May '---in the “mum ot (‘ommons ter<itty the usual variety of war questions was asked. The Par- linmentary Secretary for the War or- nce, Mr. George Wyndham, said no further report had been received from Lord Roberta with reterenee to the Room _8prult disaster. .. T'UF. SI’IUN The Government lender in the [louse of Commons, Mr. A. J. Balfour, re- plying to questions regarding the re- ports of the ill-treatment of British prisoners at Pretoria, said Her Ma.. jesty's Government was considering the advisahiiity of further representa- tions on the subject through Wash- ington and through the United States (‘onsui at Pretoria, Mr. Adelbert f Hay, who has charge at British in- tenants in the Transvaal. The Home went into Committee of Supply today on the War Oiiioe vote, and Mr. Walter Runclmnn. Lib. eral. started the debate on the pub- lication of the Spion Kop despatch- es. He declared the Government had disrqrarded every consideration elt. eept publicity. and asserted that the responsibility for the publication rested entirely with politicians. "al. though in this one the Socratnry of War had deliberately attempted to throw the responsibility on the Com- mttnder-itt-t'hlet." The public. Mr. Runclman asserted. had expected the recall ot the cen- sured commanders. as in the case of Gen. Uataere, instead of which _Gen.

In so doing, he said, he resented the grave inninuatlon that the Secre- tary of State for War was guilty or anything dishonorable in requesting Gen. Bullet to rewrite " despatch.
