London, July 1.-THE effect of the
assassination of the president in
America is the only adequate compar-
ison to the profound sensation caused
in this country by the murder of Sir
William Hutt Curzon Wyllie at the
hands Of young Indian fantaic. 1t
! is thoroughly established that the
crime was purely political and insti-
gated by the leaders of the anarchist
revolutionary party, which has Great
ed widespread agitation in India for
/! the past two years. The tolerance of
! the British authorities, both in Eng
land and in India, who have permitted
open Indictment to outrage, is now
the subject of the most severe public
reprobation.
Shyamaji Krishnavarma is the Lon
don head of the seditious Indiar
propaganda. He publishes without re-
straint in his organ, the Indian So
ciologist, such views as the following,
which are taken from the current is

1--WE repeat that political assassina-
tion is not murder. All unprejudiced
men treat political assassins not as
criminals in any way, but often re-
gard them as benefactors of their
race"

krishnayarma, in the light of
Thursdays crime and speaking from
the safe distance of Paris, reiterates
these ideas. krishnavarma's head
quarters has been for the two years
past the Indian House at Hampstead,
where he has been using his seditious
influence to corrupt the Indian stu
dents of whom there are always about
500 in London. A friend of Dhinagri,
the assassin of Sir William, explains
their methods and also the probable
origin of the murder of Wyllie. He
says Dhinagri went early on the even
ing of the murder to the residence
of Indian agitators at Westbourne
park district.

says the friend of Dhinagri. "They
talked of the wrongs of India, and of
how they could be redressed. ! know

"They told him that he would be
a hero immortal in the memory of his
downtrodden coultrymen, and that a
statue would be raised to him on

death. What is death? they would say.
Why, every year in India famine and

among them soon. and you will die

if you are one of the deliverers of In

A written statement which was
found in Dhinagri's pocket but not yet
published confirms the evidence that
the motive for the crime was entirely
political. The selection of Sir Wyllie
