bombay, Feb. st.-Importnnt details
regarding the action Of the British au-

Oman leaked out while the British 20.
lltical agent at MuHcnt. Major EnEan,

commander OF the Hunbout Sphinx

French. continued 10 b. rcoaicitrant.
the arrival ~ tho second class cruiser
Eclipse, flagship OF the East indies sta
ilon. with Rear Admiral Drummond on
board, threw the sultan'H subjects into
a panic, though the sultan himself still
remained Obduratc. During the morn
Ing OF February 10, Admiral Drummond
sent word ashore that unless the sultan
attended durbar ON board the Eclipse
nt . o'clock that afternoon, he would
lombard the forts at $3.50 pm.
Notice OF the admlral'a Intention was
sent 10 the foreign consulH ana the
town was speedily In confusion. The
advisers Of the sultan entrcated him 10

British ships cleared for action. The
sultan thcreupon posted notification
at the custom house and on the gates
OF the town that the agreement with
the French was cancelled.
~ noon the sultan sent his brother
on board the Eclipse. but the British
admiral refused to receive him as a
substitute.
Just before o'clock the sultan Of
oman. almost unattended, arrived on
board the flagship and remained there
for two hours, while the whole populn-
ton lined the beach and anxlously
awaited the outcome.
The sultan, II appears. completely
ncquiesced 20 the British demands and
handed over 90 Admiral Drummond the
treaty with France, on the following
day the admiral went 90 the palace,
where great durbar was held aud the
sultan publicly repudiated his agree
