Londo.v, August 24, 9.22 p.m. All the positions held by Arabi's forces between Suez and Ismalia have now been evacuated, and the enemy have retreated in a zig-zag and disorderly manner. The fresh w ater supply to places along the Canal, and to Alexandria is found to be sufficient for all requirements. Deserters coming in from the enemy are very numerous. Thousands appear to have been intimidated into joining Arabi.
