WHEN THE PRINCE VISITS. (Received this day at 11.30 a.m.) DELHI, June 19.
There are indications that the extremists intend to attempt to mar Fie Prince of Wales’ visit. As an example it is suggested that the Mohammedan candidates for the new Indian Councils bind themselves not to take the oath of allegiance, and stand aloof when the Prince opens the Council, unless the Turkish treaty is modified in accordance to their views. Another threat is embodied in a telegram sent to the Indian Office on behalf of. the Indian Home Rule League, stilting that the people are unlikely to co-operate u: welcoming the Prince unless the miscarriage of Justice in the Punjab jremedied, and other wrongs righted. There is also proof that th)e Bolsheviks continue plotting with a view' to creating tribal troubles on the Indian frontier. They are financing the revoluwho are endeavouring to foment an insurrection throughout India
