NEWS, NOTES & CUTTINGS (VIA ENGLAND.)
LONDON, February 9. FEOST AND FRICTION. DREARY WAITING. Ten degrees below freezing point, an icy north-east wind blowing briskly, and no definite news from South 'Africa, except a significantly longcasualty list. Such is the agreeable condition of things in London this morning-, and I don't wonder the public in general, and the press in particular, are beginning to display considerable irritation. That there is plenty of good journalistic "copy" itching to get on the Avires all xhe .world knows, but the censors just now are inexorable, and even Mr Bennett Burleig-h's tricky little "try-ons" ihave failed miserably. At Durban and in Capetown, etc., ithe press is said to know less than (we do in London. Mr Garrett is on the spot again, but even he cannot get much ahead of his rival paper. Evidently all is being done fairly.
