SOUTH AFRICAN AFFAIRS.
MURDER OF AN OVERSEER. HEIR HARDIE^DECLARATION. PIETERMARITZBURG, May 18. Walter, an overseer at Mbitze, in Zululand, has been murdered. Saunders is caring for the feeding of Bainbaata’s women folk and children. Kulo’s rebels are advancing on Nkandhla. Bambaata, with an impi, has started to join Sigananda in the Nkandhla forest. LONDON, May 18. Keir Hardie, writing to a Zululand correspondent at Edinburg, says that nobody believes there has been any native rising. Everyone knows that it is a butchery of unarmed natives. It is remarkable to think that a Liberal Government sits supinely by and allows it to occur. Apparently without a word of protest, deeds are now being done that make one ashamed to belong to a race capable of such atrocities upon defenceless and helpless people.
