VIOLENCE IN EGYPT.
PREMIER'S MURDER. SIR ELDON GORST ACCUSES THE NATIONALISTS. EXCESSES. OF NATIVE PRESS. By Telenaim-Presr Associatlon-OoDyrleht (Eeo. April 28, 11.5 p.m.) London, April 28. In a Bins Book on the state of Egypt in 1909, the British Minister, Sir Eldon Gorst, declares that the Nationalist party is morally responsible for the murder by the Mohammedan, Wardani, of the Egyptian Premier, Boutros Pasha. This assassination was due to the criminal incitements of self-styled. patriots. Tho Minister saye it would be calamitons if the improvement which had begun to manifest itself, in the attitude of the country towards its rulers should be cut short by the mad act of an individual, and if justification should thus be given to the numerous elements who advocate stern repression. The.best tribute that Boutros's colleagues can pay to his memory ib to ensure, a continuation of his work of pacification. Sir. Eldon Gorst admits that the press law, which has been revised for the purposed curbing incitements to crime; has been applied with excessive moderation. Unless matters improve it will be applied with greater severity.
