TROUBLE IS FEARED
IN INDIA
WARlikE WAZiRi TRIBESMEN ON
THE FRONTIER ARE BEcoM
ING VERY ACTIVE.

London. oct. Another expedition
against the wariike Wazir3 tribcsmen,
who inhabit the northwest frontier of
India. with n strong probability Of the
extension OF the operations into Kabul
is regarded as almost certainty Of
the near future by those close In touch
with the Indian government. The I'M
rest In these regions is pronounced.
Small British posts have been sub
Jectcd to raids for months and poIiti
cal and military officers have been
killed by fanatiCal tribesmen.
Those conversant with the situation
are satisfied that the agitation is be-
ing engineered from Afghanistan. Arms
and ammunition are reaching the
tribcsmcn in alarming quantities from
across the Afghan frontier. Mazrul-
lah Khan brother Of the amecr Of
Afghanistan. who is VIGOROUSLY anti
British. is becoming increasingly pow
erfuI at Kabul, and In India he is re-
garded as a constant menace to peace.
Mazruliah Is reported To be preaching
a holy war among the tribesmen in the
British sphere of influence.
The Waziris. whose spirit of indie
pendence was in no way dampencd by
the defeats they suffered at the hands
of the last British expedition. are be-
ing wrought up by n fanatical mullah
named Pojindar. who is now on his
way to Kabul to consult with MaZ-
rullah Khan.
The British government admits fully
the seriousness of the situation. For
months past ii has been trying to stop
the importation of arms, and il Is quite
likely that a blockade of the Persian
gulf. through which this traffic is car
ried on. may he undertaken.
Should war with Afghanistan re-

tena with Russia would make II a
much less formidable affair than be-
fore, and frontier officers express tho
belief that Il British force could be In
