LONDON, April 21.-The situation Of the
Russo-Afghan question again is very
serious, owing to Russia increasing her
demands to such an extent that it will be
impossible for England to accept such
terms. M. de Giers, the Russian Premier,
who is evidently determined to profit by
his recent success in negotiating with the
English Foreign Office, is apparently de-
cided not to yield a single iota to Earl
Granville. 1t is now feared that Russia
has overstepped the bounds of British for
bearance, as it is asserted on high authority
that England will never succumb to these
latter demands Of the Russian Premier.
A large number of important dispatches
passed between the English and Russian
Foreign Offices Saturday and Sunday. All
the members of the Cabinet remained in
| London Sunday, awaiting a reply from
Russia to the latest from Earl Granville.
Dispatches from Cronstadt state that the
Russian fleet there has been ordered to
prepare for war instantly and that thirty
two Russian men-of-war have hoisted
their flags and put to sea.
There has been q continuous exchange of
| dispatches between Earl Granville and de
| Giers since Saturday. 1t is apparent that
| the breach is widening.
8 P. M.-There is now considerable ex-
| element on the exchanges. Consols have
| fallen three-fourths in the last half-hour
and are now SO for both.
$3.50 P. M.-Consols are sc 3-16.
LONDON, April 21.-Tbe Cabinet met to-
| day to consider the contents of a number
of important dispatches just received from
| Lord Dufferin.
Earl Granville, British Foreign Minister,
stated this afternoon in the House of Lords,
that the Government had received a dis
patch from Sir Peter Lumsden. The con-
tents Of this dispatch, Earl Granville said,
the Government was not prepared to make
public any further than to state that it con-
tanned a contradiction of the account of the
Penjdeh incidents as given by Gen. Roma
rolf. The Government there, Earl Gran
vile said, was expecting further kilograms
from Sir Peter Lumsden, and until they
were received the Government would not
be prepared to make any further state
ment.
FBANKFoRT-oN-THE-MAIN April 21.-The
Frankfort Gazette publishes a dispatch
from st. Petersburg to the effect that the
resignation of de Giers, Russian Minister
of Foreign Affairs, becomes daily more
probable.
LAHORE, India, April 21.-Earl Dufferin
Viceroy, in an address to the Indian Asso
citation, again referred to the marked man

and people to give England assistance il
any struggle which she might have will
Russia, and assured his hearers that Eng
land would know how to use this help wher
occasion required it.

special says: A wave eight feet high came
rushing down the Rio Grande this morn
ing with terrific force. II carried away
the line-bents Of the Mexican National
Railway bridge. In a few hours the river
rose twelve feet, then rapidly ran down.
