The Abolition of the Lance, March 31.-Lord Stanley, answering speeches with reference to the abolition of the lance, read a letter from Sir Ian Hamil- ton dwelling on the disadvantages of the lance in the Boer war, saying that, while it might be useful in India, where it might be necessary to encounter swordsmen, in mo- dern warfare, the lance was a great disad- vantage, for it is only possible to bring less FROM ANTWERP, LONDON, PORT than half a Lancer regiment into the firing line. Moreover lances revealed the posi tion of troops.
Lord Stanley added that the abolition of the lance was supported by Lord Roberts, who, above all, was qualified to know the requirements of the Indian service.

In view of the vast expenditure in respect of India, the Council of Defence should in- clude the Secretary for India and his prin cipal military officers.
Lord Hardwicke, defending the system, declared that in a very few months it would
