Since the resignation of the Council of Ministers, the Khedive has issued a proclamation announcing that he has assumed the supreme control of the Egyptian army. Many Generals are, however, openly urging the deposition of Tewfik Pasha, and have sent a demand to his Highness that Arab! Pasha should within twelve hours be reinstated as Minister of War. Tho Khedive has resolutely refused to agree to this demand. The position of affairs is deemed most critical.
