LONDON, Dee -. - The announce
ment that Dutch East Indies lines and
mail boats viii abandon for the present
their usual course through the Suez
canal and win follow the cape route in
conjunction with the report of British
trench digging and general defensive
preparations on both sides of the canal
is taken as confirmation of the rapidly
maturing German designs on Egypt.
The Dutch steamships company ex-
plains the change of routes by the in
creasing uncertainty of obtaining the
necessary amount of coal at appointed
stations, but as the change Of routes
viii prolong the voyage y to II days it
is believed that the change could not
have been dictated by any but the most
serious reasons. From various other
sources come hints of the rapid compile
tion of German plans for a protected
attack on Egypt.
