SIR REDVERS BULLER.
Beceived February 22, 9.35 a.m.
London, February 21.
The Bight Hon. A. J. Balfour, First Lord of the Treasury, replying to a pro - Boer correspondent, said that General Sir Bedvers Buller was not asked to re-write an account of tbe Spionkop fight, for he had never written any. Sir Bedvers Buller's despatch merely criticised unfavourably Lieut. - General Sir Charles Warren's memorandum to the War Office, and asked foi a narrative for publication or leave for Lord Boberts to deal with material already supplied. The allegation of suggested tampering with truth was pernicicus nonsense.
THE KING.
The King is visiting Lord Barton (formerly Mr Bass, of brewing fame) at Bongenniore, Staffordshire.
