CAIRO. December l4.-In letter received
nj Suakim from Osman Digna, and which is
supposed to have contained an announce
ment from EmIn Pasha and n white traveller
presumably Stanley had fallen into the
hands OF the Mahdi, were enclosed copies OF
a dispatch from the Dervsh Leader Al Lado
TO Khallpa Pasba giving the date Of Emin
Pasba's surrender az October 10th and let
ter 10 Emin Pasha irom the Khediye. which
letter was handed to Henry Nj. Stanley when
he was at Cairo.
LONDON. December 14.--It Is rumored that
Osman Digna in his letter expressed Will
ingness TO surrender Emiu I'ashi and his
white companion provided Egypt would
agree to abindon Suakim. II this proposal
Is not accepted il Is believed that both OF the
captlves will be killed. Tue British Cabinet
are nov discussing the situation.
Along with the letter Osman D'gna sent
several Snyder cartridges which, he alleged.
he had taken from the White Traveller. The
Xanzibaris in Stsnley's expedition are armed
with snyder rifles, but none are in possession
OF the Deryishes.
In the House q Commons this afternoon
Mr. Smith. replying 10 Wilfred Lawson, said
A. far as known 10 the Government the letter
written BY O.mau Dieua announces The sur
render Of Emin Pasta and the White Ira
weller. The Government had no means OF
knowing whether tue allegations were well
founded.
Mr.. stauhepe, Minister OF War, replying 10
Mr.. Dillon. stated the cost Of the army of
occupation in Fgypt during the current
year at Cll0,000 This expense would
be born by Egypt. II the operations entsied
further expenditures the Government
would consider how they should he.met.
The Egyptian Government had approved
the sendmg of rei0iorcements to SuaSim.
General Greniell recognized the letter
which Osman Digna had furnished as an
original one which he bad drafted Tor tne
Khedi,e. Thus Stanley's capture is viz
tullly beyond doubt. Tbo Congo state Of
fcas have not been informed OF the situa.
