THE NEWS RECEIVED IN CAL
THE ARABS GREATLY ENCOURAGED

LONDON, February 5.-The first
news Of the fall of Khartoum received
by General Wolseley was brought by a
messenger who left the island where
Colonel Wilson was stranded and came
on foot to Gabat. Two messengers
were dispatched to Korti ria Abu Klea
and Gakdul. They reached their des-
tination in safety, owing to the fact
that the news of Khartoum's fall had
not reached the desert. Intelligence Of
the disaster, however, has since spread
far and wide. Some of the tribes that
have hitherto professed friendship for
England have declared for the Mahdi.
The Arabs still hold Metemneh. The
garrison there received the news of the
fall Of Khartoum with repeated salyos
of artillery.

DISASTER.

ENGLAND AND RUSSIA

London paper says that the English
government has sent an emphatic demand to
81 Petersburg for the withdrawal of the
russian troops now on Afghan territory.
n despatch partook of the character of an
ultimatum.
Orders have been sent to Sir Peter Lums-
den the British commissioner on the Afghan
frontier, to direct the Afghans to evacuate
PenJdeh on the withdrawal of the Russian
forces from Acrobat. Baron de Staal, the
russian ambassador, has promised that the
RUSSIAN troops shall retire.
The British government has suspended the
operation of the factory act limiting the
number of hours during which workmen may
be employed as far as it relates to the roval
arsenal at Woolwich. The object is to allow
the workshops at the arsenal to be run at
their full capacity night and day and to en-
able them to turn out 2,5OO, 600 cartridges per
week
Despite the pacific assurances of Russia,
the British war office is despatching troops
to India with all possible speed. The mum
Der sent forward is limited only by the
means of transportation, as there are far
more men available for active service than
can he sent to the scene of the expected hos
tllities, owing to the lack of vessels
