ENGLAND'S NEXT CRISIS.
TROUBLE APPARENTLY ExPECTED ON
THE AyGHiNISTAN FRONTIER.
Kitchener to Become Commandsr-in- Chief In
India. and Any Troops wtthdrawn From
south Africa VIII Co There with Him
-Amesrs Attitude Has Been Threatening
for Some rime-The Goverrmont Uneasy.


s~eiaI Cab. Dapaicn 10 THE suS.
LONDON. July q. 1T s remarkable how
successful the British Government have
been in keeping from the general public
knowledge Of the threatened peril which
has given them the greatest anxiety for
several weeks past / alluded vaguely to
this matter week ago, and while am able
now TO speak with more definiteness. ! am
still under obligation to maintain certain
reserve. The facts are these:
The Government felt itself compelled
nearly month ago to arrange for the early
withdrawal Of 10000 troops from South
Africa. Much to the annoyance Of the
War ONCE the fact leaked out and it was
hailed at first as q peaceful omen.
1t was not the purpose Of the Govern
ment. however. 10 bring the men home.
but to send them. II necessity dictated 1t.
to India Should this movement be made
Lord Kitchener will 70 In command. He
will In any event take up the duties Of Com
mander- in Chief in India before the close
Of the year. Sir Bindon Blood 70 suggested
"a his successor in South Africa.
The most natural inference. perhaps.
from the foregoing statement will be that
the Government fears another Indian up
rising a. the effect Of the double scourge
Of plague and famine. Such Ia not the
cause Of the Governments alarm Such q
thing may be a secondary sequel Of threat
ened events, but the troops will be needed.
II at all. on the Afghanistan frontier.
Let me say at once with regard to the
obvious Inference which will be drawn
from this intelligence. that l possess no
Information of any move by. or In behalf.
OF Russia. 1t is known in well-nformed
quarters. however, that the Ameer's atti-
tude has given cause for uneasiness and
was most threatening when consols. for
some cause unknown to the public, dropped
to sl a fortnight ago.
The India Government has been making
extraordinary preparations to meet the
crisis. The prospects OF peace South
Africa strongly tend to improve the situ-
alton. These. however. are still rather
vague. despite the British Government 8
earnest desire to bring hostilities to close.
1t is hardly probable that deliberate
attempt would be made In any quarter
to overthrow British authority In India
If the chances favored the early release
Of a large part Of the army in outh Africa
for service elsewhere. 1t can only be said
at the present moment, that the danger
still exists.

Gil. or Cabinet, to aim at reform and harmoni-
Gus relations. to escape poverty and become

The Communication N under ten heads.
The first directs that the board shall select

spotlessness without regard to rank or pro-
cedent, The second says the board must
rectify abuses with frinness and moderation.
The others are A. follows:

Of yellow fever in the city. Maj. w.
Z. Gorgas, chief sanitary officer. IS

measures now being inforced and the
valuab bile information gained during
the recent Investigations of the yell

son. The marine hospital service rs
also taking precautions against the
bringing of infection into Havana
from Mexican or other ports. DIR.
Glennon, chief surgeon, has issued or
ders for quarantine against these
ports beginning April Is. IL is thought
that many eases in Havana last year
were brought from Vera Cruz, which.
Is only two days sal. from Havana.
llerea fter passengers from Vera Cruz
will be Obliged to remain in quaran-
| tine for three days.
Comfortable quarters are being fit
ted up near the Immigrant station at
Cabanas. The immigrant station is
used only as temporary quarters for
immigrants who have no employment
on arriving here. Under the old ar
rangement they remained in Havana,
and not being immune. they contract
ed yellow lever and frequently spread
| it through the country districts. I'm
migrants are now kept isolated until
employment is secured for them. and
then they are shipped direct into the
country. The number of yellow fever
Eases in Havana has decreased won
derfully since these precautions were
taken.
| A regular quarantine station was
built by the Spaniards at Mariel. II is
considered one of the best in the Ma
rine hospital service, and will be re-
tanned by the United States under the
clause in the Platt amendment relat
| ing to sanitation.
