THE RUSSIAN ADVANCE.
English ommissioners 10 Direct the
Afghan Defense.

DeIeuSc.
LONDON, July 1G.-The Standard, In an edito-
rial on the reported advance OF Russian troops
to Zuifcar Pass, says that although more reas-
surfing news was received last evening nom
OIL RIdgeway, the chief OF bitch BritsIh-Afgha
Boundary Commission, the news from other
sources regarding the Russian movements Is
of the gravest character. The only redeoming
feature OF tho intelligence from AfghnnistaD,
says the Standard, is that the Afghans have Mt
tached themselves more firmly than ever to our
side
Sir Michael IIiclLs-Eoach, Chancellor OF tho
Exchoquer, stated in tho House OF Commons
that tho government had nothing further To
impart regarding the reported Russian advance
In Afghnnistan.
Tho India ofIlCo has telographed the English
officials to watch closely the movements of the
Russian troops; and keep IT fully advised as TO
the situation on tho frontier. II Is also stated
that the instructions sent to the English officials
direct them TO act with the Aighans In defend.
ing the Ameer's territory from any further In
vason by Russia. Further news is anxiously
awaited.
BERLIN, Jaly 10.-Advlces received here from
st. Petersburg state that the Afghan boundary
question Is not yet finally settled, but that the
main points are adjusted.
LONDON, July 1.-THE Dpiy Telegraph says
the Russians have made no actual advance,
nor have they occupied the Zulhcar Pass. The
Ameer invited the British Afghan boundary
Commission to return TO Herat as q precaution.
AIRY measure on his part in the event of n for.
ward movement of the Russians. The British
Government has notified Russia that any in
crease of Russian forces In the direction OF Zul
fear will be regarded as unirendly action.
TEHERAS, July 16.-As a consequence of the
Russian advance the Afghans have invited tho
