processing friendliness to Great Brit
ain the ameer has been secretly pre-
pairing for war.
Well informed circles are also dis
cussing the story of secret correspon-
denee between Russia and AfghanistaR

hands of the British officials, and it is
further intimated that a widespread
plot, embracing the Beluchis and
others has been discovered. The truth

velop hereafter; but, the fact remains
that the large increase in the strength
of the British artillery in India cannot
be intended for use against the Afridis.
