Indian Problems.
DANDER OF REPLACEMENT. I AUSTRALIAN AND N.Z. CABI.K ASSOCIATION, j (Received this day at 8.30 a.m.) SYDNEY, May 30. Captain I.atom-lie, of the Royal Indian Marine lias arrived after thirtyone years service in India, lie says there is no doubt India is in a bad wav. The worst features of the* situation are the general exodus of whites. Slowly, but surely, India is losing its most trusted servants, who are being replaced in a wholesale manner by Indians, mainly babies from Bengal and Madras. They are clever and able to pass toy examination without difficulty, but when it conies to utilising their knowledge as officials, they are failures. The natives bad learned to trust the whites to impartially execute their public duties, but the same confidence is not shown m the intPglity of Indians replacing them, 'lhe natives, who love litigation, employ every wile to avoid appearing before Indian magistrates. They squander mone\ in taking C.n.ses to the highest court, sc, that a white iudge can try tlmin. latouchi considers a. general upheaval m India is improbable. There are so many different race castes that a concerted movement is out of the question. J
