INDIAN PROGRESS.
,-t ■ A GATHERING IN LONDON. (By Tclegraph-Pre£3 Association Copyright) London, January 2. A New Year's reception to Indians of all races and creeds was held at the residence of Bepin Chandra Pal, in London. Sir Henry Cotton, formerly Chief Commissioner in Assam, was 1 tho principal guest. - He urged Indians not! to express themselves too strongly lest they should fall into the same troublo as Savarkar, the Indian student, who has been sentenced to deportation for life. He hoped the Hague Arbitration Tribunal would restore Savarkar to France, to whose soil ho escaped from the steamer which was carrying him to India. . Sir Henry eulogised the ideal of India again becoming self-governing, but said that Indians should cultivate friendly relations with Englishmen in India. Their ideal.was not tttninable in a day, but progress was being made,- notwithstanding the terribly repressive legislation.
