War
| CAIRo, June 2.--The latest reports Of the
| immense levies made by El Medhi the false
| prophet, In Central Africa, are causing much
| excitement among the Mohammedan natives
| and some alarm among Europeans and Arab
and Egyptian officials Even the fellaheen
| knew all the facts connected with El Mehdia
| movements quite rs early as they are known
officially, which would be impossible we're
