MANCHESTER, Sept 26-The Guardian .
London correspondent says: There are
strong indications that the governments
are not in hurry to take action on the
Afgh anistan question. Their desires is to
leave the responsibility and conduct of the
question almost entirely to Lord Lytton,
Vieeroy of India. Il is desired to make
the question an Indian rather than an i'm.
perial one. This is clearly indicated BY
the attempt of the official press to repre-.
sent the quarrel as solely with the Ameer
of Afghanistan. An Intervention by the
Cabinet would have the appearance oi
dragging Russia into dispute that this
government is anxious to avoid. The se-
cond reason for abstinence from imperial
action arises from difference of opinion no
only between the Foreign Secretary an6
Viceroy, but between the members of th,
Cabinet themselves, Another obstacle {.
