But viewed in its larger aspect, the incident is one of the most instructivo and encouraging that have happened in the war. Nothing proves more plainly the effectivenoss of British naval pressure than the frenzy of hatred aroused against us in the breasts of the enemy. This hatred has alrendy passed the frontiers of reason.

MALTREATMENT OF WOUNDED.
The Commission, in earlier reports, has already cited the cases of two Belginn soldiers who were cast into a burning house between Impde and Wolverthem, and of 20 Belgian wounded and prisoners who were shot at Aerschot on August 18th. Incidents of this kind have been frequent:-
