| REFUSES TO ACCEPT ARABTS NOMINEES
LONDON, June 20.-An Alexandria CORE
spondent telegraphs that Ragheb Pasha has
refused to accept as colleagues in the minis
try the nominees OF Arab Pasha who were
members of the last cabinet.
THE CONFERENCE TO MEET THURSDAY.
In the House of Commons, this afternoon,
Dixie, under foreign secretary, stated that
the conference OF the six great powers will
meet at Constantinople Thursday without
| the consent of Turkey. Dixie also stated
that Malet, the British consul-general in
Egypt, was instructed, on the 18th instant,
that the government abstains from making
demands for the present, but it must be
clearly understood that they would require
full reparation and satisfaction for the recent
outrsges on British subjects in Egypt. He
said Malet had not been party to the
formation of the new Egyptian ministry.
GROUND FOR DELIBERATIoN.
Sir Charles Dixie said, in the House
OF Commons, the result Of the late eI-
change of views is that the POWERS have
agreed upon the initiative of England
and France, and that there is ground for
deliberation on the present state OF Egypt,
and the measures which it may entail. A
very large amount of British import trade
from Egypt is in cotton. The stoppage of bust
ness there will be keenly felt in Lancashire,
III ucC
Egyptian cotton exclusively.
POOR CHRISTIANS FLEEING FROM EGYPT.
The lord mayor has received telegram
from DIR. Mackie, consular surgeon at Alex
andria, stating that 1000 poor christian
families are fleeing from Egypt. He says
that they are leaving all their possessions
and will be destitute, and asks the lord mayor
to organize fund for their relief.
Another dispatch says: Even the natives
talk of quitting the country. The next
years crops are ruined, and it is difficult to
see what can prevent famine"
