EAST INDIAN TROOPS
Marched in Review to Tune of Sousa's
"Hands Across the Sea"
(p,, Acsocia tod Press)

LONDON July 2-The review Of the
East Indian troops to-day was largely
a repetition Of yesterdays function. but
the varied coloring Of the uniforms Of
representative corps from all parts OF
Hndustan formed an altogether more
picturesque spectacle. Queen Alexandra
was again the central figure of the pro-
ceedings, and the public welcomed the
opportunity to testify once more its
sympathy with her, owing to her recent
anxiety and its congratulations ON the
continued good news received from the
sick-room Of King Edward.
About 1890 dark-skinned troops, head
ed bv g. detachment Of the Body Guard
Of the Viceroy Of India. Lord Curzon Of
kedeston. reached the Horse Guards
Parade to the strains Of Sousa's Hands
Across the Sea-" The members Of the
Royal family, who reviewed the Colo
malls yesterday. ,raversed the lines of
the soldiers Of the Indian Empire The
Prince Of Wales, representing the King,
standing by the side of his mothers
carriage, took the salutes and the pro-
ceedings ended like those Of yesterday.
with cheers for the King, led by the
Duke OF Connaught, the Indians draw
ing their swords and waving them as
they joined the cheering.
On returning to the palace the Queen
appeared at window and took several
snapshots Of the Indian troops as they
marched past on their return to CAMP
The Indians recognized the Queen-E,n-
press and each detachment cheered as It
passed.
The British feet which assembled off
spithead for the proposed coronation re-
view dispersed this morning,
