§ MR. LONSDALEI beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for India whether the Amir has replied to the representations of the Government of India with reference to the participation by Afghans in the recent frontier outbreaks; and whether any explanation has been given of the hostile demonstration in the Khaibar.
§ MR. BUCHANANA communication has been received by the Government of India from the Amir on the subject referred to, and he has given satisfactory assurances as to the efforts he has made to dissuade Afghans from joining the tribesmen. It would be contrary to the public interest to go into details of the correspondence.
