of invasion OF British India. which ii
is stated was filed i'll tEt Russian War
ONCE as the official method of pro-
ceedure in case of war between Russia
and great Britain
The document goes into minute
details and Is three columns in length.
Briefly surmed up. General kuropat-

paigns. one ending with the capture
of Herat and the other otter two or
three years ADMINISTRATION of the
country. with the capture of Kashmir,
Kandhar and Kabul.
After that. says General kuropta-
kin, the British would find them
selves without native support in In

The plans deal ninutely with the
methods Russia ought to adopt to Sc
cure the cooperation of the Porsians
and Afghans by an elaborate system
of agents and Sheiks. 1t estimates
that one Turkestan army corps and
one trans Caspian corps would be re-
