The rtfal need is nuTieratron, as b,dth sides, from tneir own viewpoints, are in the right. The late Mr Fischer saw Lord Crewe and Mr Harcourt recently, and stated publicly that a modus vivendl was possible if the Indians vfefe moderafi. On the; other hand, ■the Indians declare that General Smuts promised an amendment of the law, which was not carried out, and this gave an excuse for the strike.
