(Special to The Guardian)

NEW; YORK, Nov. 9.-An Associat-

ed Press despatch from Washington to-day says: Earl Kitchener's ultimate mission during his mysterious absence from the British War Office, is said in confidential information received here to-day, to be India, where, ac- cording to information, British rule is confronted with a more serious state of unrest than has generally been known outside British official circles.

Through this thick veil which the

British censorship has thrown about events in India and Egypt comes a statement that Nawab, Sultan Ulmulk, the Nizam of Hydrabad, one of the most influential of the native princes and a stanch supporter of the British has been deposed by his people.

This development, coming as one

of the climaxes to successive reports of mutinies and unrest, many of which have been substantiated, is admitted by the British Government and it is said to be the leading reason for Earl Kltchener's departure from England which has been shrouded with much secrecy. It has been officially an- nounced that the head of the British War Office is on his way to the thea- tre of operations in the near East which has generally been interpreted as meaning the Balkans, where the critical situation of the moment con- fronts the Allied forces. Information reaching the United States through _channels not subject to censorship, is to the ,effect that it is well known in London among those close to the Gov- ernment. that while Earl Kitchener may stop at the Balkans to coordinate the efforts of the Allied forces, his

ultimate deatination is not only india ' but Egypt as well, where the British gateway to the Balkans is. Coupled with repeated rumors of the activities of German agents fomentlng discon- tent among the native population of India have come representations of disaifection ln Egypt, also ascribed to the same source. Since the Turks failed to out the Suez Canal mainly through the prompt arrival of Colo- nial troops from New Zealand, Aus- tralia, it has been reported that agents from Constantinople and Ber- lin have been conducting a persistent

were some time ago Great Britain’s enemies.

The importance to the British of

the reported downfall of Nizam Hyder Abad is illustrated by the fact that at the critical moment Turkey entered hostilities and the Sultan called all Mohammedans to a holy war, Nizam Hydrabad, head of the largest Moham- medan state in India issued a mani- festo to his people in which he de-

Brltfsh allegiance.

Nizam, who is one of the wealthiest

native princes, contributed $2,000,000

Declan Horse, who were transported for service in Europe. Such informa- tion as has come to Washington of these developments is of an unofficial character, inasmuch as it does not emanate from sources which would be interested in spreading reports of dis- affection in British territory, and has been given credence.

Earl Kitchener's selection for the

task of holding Britain's Oriental Empire intact, is viewed generally as having been caused by his long ser- vice in India and Egypt, his intimate knowledge of the native temperament and his large personal following among the leaders of the natives. Earlier in the war disaffection in India and Egypt was evidently of such threatening proportions that the use of Japanese troops was being suggest- ed to take the place of native forces. which have been withdrawn for the European battle front. It was an-

troops would be used outside the theatre of Japanese-German hostilities at Kiac Chow. Since then a new_ situation has arisen in the Balkans and Japan has announced her entry into an agreement with all the En- tente Allies not to conclude a separate peace. Competent observers point out that Japan is strategically in a much better position than England to land troops in India or Egypt. If reports of the serious situation in india are confirmed, it would not cause surprise here that tire proposal to use Japanese troops would be revived. In the last report to the State Department of political conditions in British posses- sions in Asia some months ago, de- tails came of a mutiny of natives at Singapore, in which practically all the officers of a British regiment were killed. An expeditionary force of British bluejackets scoured the inter- ior for native leaders and captured

many, who were executed.

LONDON. Nov. 9.-The Times

Petrograd correspondent, who is visit- ing the Russian headquarters, and has had talks with General Alexieff. the chief of staff, and other Russian mili- tary personages, gathers from them that there is no tendency on the part of the Russians to underestimate the still 'encumbered road to victory.

"They realise," says the correspon-

dent, " that the Germans have the advantage in the general position and unity of command, but that the Allies- eventually have the advantage in numbers. '

"Nevertheless, they consider the

" They estimate that there are 110

An examination of weather records

The Telegraaf says it is reported

the German military authorities were found unprepared, and that the armies on the eastern and south-eastern fronts are not properly equipped to withstand the unexpected cold.

a despatch from Saloniki in which Premier Radoslavoff of Bulgaria is quoted by a Sofia correspondent of Budapest, Hungary, declaring: "The Grecian Government has now been warned that it cannot hold the Bul- garian Government responslble for any consequences in its future atti- tude." This notification, according to the correspondent, followed a repre- sentation made by the Premier to M. Naoum, Greek Minister to Bulgaria. Premier Rados Lavoff, the correspon- dent declares, regards the facilities accorded for the disembarkation of Allied troops at Saloniki as incompa- tible with Greek neutrality and has informed Minister Naoum to that ef- feet.

Peddler’s Parade in ilearlz Memorial llall

That admirably enterprising and

energetic body of ladies, the Willing Circle of King's Daughters of the First Methodist Church, who _have already done invaluable patriotic work of one kind or another since the outbreak of the war, last evening again gave evi- dence of their originality and "push" when they held their “peddlers’ par- ade" in Heartz Memorial Hall. The function from start to finish was em- phatically a success from every point of view, and the financial outcome is not only creditable to the worthy lad- ies but s. much~needed and very wcl- come addition to the funds of the Red Cross Society, in whose aid the "par- ads” was given. The proceeds have not yet been fully ascertained, but from the splendid audience who were present and the rather generous way in which they patronised the affair, it is safe to say that a handsome sum was realised. The Willing Circle par- ticularly, and also everyone of the several other ladies and other persons who helped to make tho "peddlers' parade" last night the unqualiled suc- cess it was, deserve great credit and the best thanks of the Red Cross So- ciety, and the Guardian congratulates them on the splendid efforts which they displayed in furthering such an imperatlvely needy cause. The "ped- dlers' psrade" was a novel idea in Charlottetown. and it would have been only reasonable if its success was not as pronounced as would be that of a mature scheme; but the ladies of the First Methodist Church, with charac- terlstic skill, foresight and manage- ment, were able to succeed in spite of novelty; and the "parade" was a decided triumph. About thirty "ped- dlers," attired in character costumes, and rcprcscniing types of various na- tionalities, were on the stage, and after a short musical programme they paraded around the hall, hawking their sundry wares, consisting of candy. apples, pop corn and other se- ductive artlcies of a like nature. The scene presented by this unique ag- gregation of peddlcrs was remarkahy interesting and spectacular, and some of the costumes worn were exception- ally clover. They were all of sisch uniform merit that it would be lnvl~_ dious to particuiarise, but it might be’ mentioned that the characters repro-I senting the American huckster, the indian woman and the nsgress dis- played much art. The "boot-black" was another character that compelled attention. The proceedings were pre- sided over by Mr. James Patou, M. L. A., who in a few appropriate remarks introduced the following programme:

Plano Solo-Miss Coombs.

Vocal solo-Miss Helen Hughes.

_ Vocal solo-Gunner White.

Reading-Miss Eleanor Lowe.

Solo-Br. Ceilings. Every item on this programme was

a distinct credit to the performer and the entertainment provided was highly appreciated. The characters were: Street musicians; Irish apple woihlii; "pop corn" vendor; "Corn cure" spe- cial st; poksy-poksy msn; lemonade vendor; indian woman with baskets' doughnut woman; tambourine girl, singing "In, the good old summer
