ATTEMPTED ESCAPE.
Brutal Treatment Of the Prisoners.

ST.. PErERsBrRG April II. Prisoners I'M
der arrest in keiff prison resolved some time
ago to drill under the walls and escape. The
scheme was betrayed by one of the conspira-
tors. The authorities allowed the prisoners
to complete the excavation and when the tun-
mel was completed the prisoners entered it,
one after another, intending to come up by
the opening beyond prison limits. Soldiers
previously posted at the opening shot the
prisoners as they came up, when the bulk of
the prisoners, terrified by the noise of the
firing, stopped and remained in the tunnel
Soldiers were sent in from behind and the
unfortunate wretches, caught between two
fires, were all shot down.
The proceeding seemed to give the officials
much amusement, and the director of the
kief prison has been praised and decorated
for having acted with such cleverness and
decision.
One of the heaviest charges made by the
Nihliste against Russian official administra-
ton is brutal treatment of prisoners, in con-
sequence of which the health of most of
them was broken down, many dying and
some driven mad

The London Times Advises Caution.

LoSDoN, April II. The Times urges eau
ton in dealing with the Egyptian question,
and says while England is not concerned as II
nation with Egypt's solvency, it is in its tran
guilty. 1t believes the dsplacing of the

proposed joint expedition by England and
France is premature and will cause grave
misgivings in both countries.
Official circles in both London and Paris
consider that recourse should not be had to
the Sultan's authority to solve the Egyptian
difficulty, except after careful deliberation.
No step therefore will he taken in reference
to the Sultans proposition until France and
England had opportunity of concerning COM
