In the House of Commons tonight Lord Harting-

that he did not consider that the annexation of Akhal
TuIcomania by Russia was matter of indifference
to Her Alajesty's Government, and he was ready to
admit that the near approach OF Russia toward the
borders of Afghanstan not matter of indliter-
ence to England.
The Independence and integrity of Afghanistan
was matter of vital Importance, ana the Goveru-
ment had intention of permitting any rntec-
ference by any foreign Power with the internal ol
external affairs OF Afghanistan.
