MODELLING HER FORCES.
THE EGYPTIAN SITUATION BE-
COMES ALARMING.
England viii Send More Soldiers to
the Land of the Khedive FOR the
Purpose Of Strengthening +
Out Existing Com
~plications.
In a Disturbed Condition.

London. Jan. 24.-It is officially an
nounced that the British government a
decided upon a slight increase OF tne
British troops in Egypt in view OF the
fact that recent events. have threateheu
to disturb the public security.
The Egyptian situation IS assuming a
gravity which for the time verWhelms III
the public mind all other issues, lnci"o-
ing even Irish home rule. LORD lSose-
berry has received Geographic ad'lces
from Lord Cromer that the khedive a
intimated his intention to REFER 10 tic
Turkish sultan and to the treaty powers
the. action of England in causing the as
missal of the Fakhre cabinet. Other ao-
vices from Cairo state that the natives
are in a more excited condition thah Ut
any time before, since the outbreak un-
der the leadership of Arab Pasha. While
a considerable party of the moderate
and intelligent natives support the British
position, the multitude takes sides Win
the khedive and against what they call
infidel dictation.
Mr.. Gladstone caused a cabinet coun-
Gil to be called to-day to consider the
Egyptian crisis. The marquis OF Rlpon,
secretary for the colonies, left Il bed or
sickness to be present at the cabinet
meeting. The council sat for two hours.
While the cabinet was in session a
stream of kilograms continued to pour
into the foreign Office from Cairo. These
were Immediately transmitted to the
cabinet. A note reached Lord Rosebery
on Saturday from the French foreign Of
flee in relation to Egyptian affairs. The
note stated that the French government,
while rcfraining from Directing to Riaz
Pasha as premier. would maintain the
right of the khedive to choose his min
listers. The British force in Egypt mum
bered, at the beginning of this year,
3,4OO men. Maj. Gen. Forester Walker
is in command. The whole Egyptian
army, however, is indirectly under Brit
ish control, about sixty English officers
holding commands among the 10000
native troops, and Gen. F. w. Kitchener
having control as sirdar of the army or
ganization. The native troops have
reached a high degree of efficiency under
their English drill masters.

a member of the judiciary committee, is
quoted as saying, apparently ON inside

Judge Gresham does not go into Mr..
Clevelands cabinet he will. before many
months, be on the supreme bench here.
Mr.. Cleveland will have three places on
that bench to fill soon. B%latchford and
Field will retire soon on account of age.
We will. by special act, doubtless retire
Justice Lamar early in the next session
of congress. Everybody knows that
Justice Lamar is incapacitated by ill
health. He has reached the age for re-
tirement, but has not been in the service
ten years, as required by law. Lamar is
Old and poor, and we are going to PEN
sion him by retiring him by special act
Of congress. If Gresham is not in the
cabinet he will, l suspect, take Lamar's
place"
