LA FAMINE BANS L'INDE

pormnus iq, UNE VISITÉ DANS LES DISTRICTS AFFLIGES

a

Bombay, 4-Klopseh, de Nevr- York, éditeur du “Christian Herald,” arrivé ici le 14 mai ot parti immédiatement peur aller faire une tournée dans les dis- tricts où sévit la famine, est re- venu, après avoir voyagé daas les parties les plns éprouvées de la présidence de Bembay, y compris Bujerat et Borala. Voi- ci ce que dit M. Kloypsch :

“Partout j'ai été témoin des scènes les plus abomidable et les plus réveltantes. Les mal. heureux affamés réunis dans les camps sont morts du ceholo- ra et de la petite vérole. Des fu- gitifs atteints par le fléau, pen- dant qu'ils se sauvaient, ont été trouvés morts dans les champs et dans les fossés le long des routes. Le nombre des affamés qui se présentent à un sen] pos- te de secours pour obtenir des vivres augmente en moyenne de 10,000 par jour.

“A Godhra, en quatre jours, il y a eu 3,000 décès causés par le choléra, et à Bohad 2,500 pen dant le même temps. Dans les hôpitaux de Gohkdraet de Do: had le nombre des déeès est de 90 pour cent.

‘La situation des malheureux atteints du choléra est impossi- ble à déerire. Une odeur intelé. rable de cadavre en décomposi- tion se dégage de l'ean et se ré: pand dans l'air. À Admedabad les décès à l'asile des pauvres ont été de 10 poureent. Ghaque jour j'ai vu de nouveaux mala- des placés en face des oorps des défunts. Dans chaque lit sus pendu il y avait un cadavre.

“Le thermomètre indiquait 115 degrés à l'ombre. Des mil- lions de mouches voltigeaient autonr des malades atteints de la dyssenterie, qui étaient mal propres.

“J'ai visité, à Viragam, les quartiers où la petite vérele et le cheléra exerçaient leurs ra vages. Toas les malades étaient obuchés sur le sol, car 1] n'y avait pas de lits. À part cela, les malades étaient bien soig- nes.

“J'ai pu parfaitement consta- ter que des vautours, des ehiens et des chacals déveraient les morts. On a vu des ehieus cou rir avee des bras ou des jambes d'enfants dans la gueule.

“ke gouveruement fait oe qu'il peut ; mais les fenetion- naires indigènes sont impuis- sants à soulager tant de misère. Par suite de la famine, de la peste et dn choléra, la situation dans la présidenee de Bombay est maintenant plus mauvaise qu'elle n'a été en aueun temps dans le 19e siècle. Des familles entières ont succombé. Le peu ple est abattu, et Ja sitnation s'aggravera dès que la mous- son se fera sentir.”

LES D1FFIGULTES DE L'ANGLETERRE

New-York, 2—Le eorrespon- dant du “World” de eette viile à Londres dit :

“Les diffienltés de l'Angle- terre ne fant que commencer avec la fin de @ette guerre in- giorieuse.

“Le “Star” qui a été seul par-| m1 tous les journaux du soir, de! Londres, à dénoncer la gæerre constamment, s'attend à la paix | immédiatement, mais il ajoute : |

“Les véritables diffieuités de l'Angleterre sent encere à venir. La guerre n'a rien réglé. Le problème essentiel reste ce qu'’- il était en ootobre dernier, la seule diférenoe, c'est qu'il est énormement plus compliqué. Quel profit aurons nens obtenu, si en privant les Boers de leur

liberté, nous perdons notre pro-| pre patriotisme. Nos nropres in- térèêts ainsi que notre honneur, nous commandent d'user de la victoire sagement, ayec modéra- tion et clémence.”

Les journaux jingo ne parlent pas de modération, mais ils in- sultent leur ennemi tombé.

La guerre a déjà coûté $300,- 000,000, et avant que tout le territoire boer ne soit oceupé— une opération qui prendra trois mois pour être exécutée, même en temps de paix —elle soûtera 150 millions de plus. La guerre a coûté beaucoup moins aux Boers, c'est-à-dire #$50,000,000, ee qui est un chiffre insignifiant comparé aux dépenses de l’'An- gleterre.

“L'Angleterre a maintenant 228,000 hemmes dans l'Afrique austraie, pendant que les Boers n'ont jamais en, en tout temps, plus que 35,000 hommes en compagne. On porte leurs forees aetuelles à 22,008 hommes.
