CONFERENCE WITH LEADERS BREAKS DOWN. [United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.] DELHI, December 24. It is generally understood that conversations between the Viceroy and five Indian political leaders ended in n total break-down.

B. Sapru, proved hopeless. Extremist counsels are likely now to dominate the Lahore Congress of politics in India.
