CAIRO, May 29.-The khedive has refused
TO have any further communication with the

prevails in Cairo and Alexandra. At the

otherwise foreign Intervention may become

their leaving the city they would be pro-
tected by ironclads while embarking.

instatement of Arab Bey, adding that the
khedive would otherwise be in danger of his

induce him to assent to their demand.
FRANCE AND ENGLAND THREATEN THE KHE-
DIVE.
1t is rumored that France and England
are quite convinced that the Porte has
openly encouraged the khedive, while secretly
countenancing the action of the army, the
object being TO bring about a Turkish inter-
vention. 1t is stated that France and En-
gland have consequently threatened the Porte
with foreign Intervention unless the watch
word of immediate and complete submission
is given the Egyptian army.
THE DIFFICULTY OF The PORTE Is NOW
PLAIN.
LONDON, May 29.-The NeUs says: at is
the first duty of the government TO protect
the lives OF Englishmen resident in Egypt
without delay. 1t hopes the ironelads at
Alexandria are equal to the task, though
the English admiral admits his inability to
land men. When this primary obligation is
discharged, the real difficulties of the sit
uation will only begin. The duplicity of
the Porte is now tolerably certain. 1t will
be impossible for Gladstone to assist in
making Turkish rule a reality in Egypt"
ENGLAND MUST INTERFERE.
The Standard says: "1f Turkish interven-
ton is impossible then France and England
must take the matter into their own hands
Immediately" The Daily Telegraph declares
that the policy of Difference to France has
been carried beyond the limits of prudence.
The Post blames Gladstone for forgetting the
traditions of the British policy, and allying
the government with anti-Turkish proceed
ings France.
