ACCIDENT TO LORD KITCHENER.
'■' THE GREAT WAB LORD" LEFT TO LIE IN AGONY. Received 18, 7.40 a.m. BOMBAY, Nov. 17. While riding alone through the Mashofoia highway tunnel Lord Kitchener's horse shied through a coolie rising suddenly. Lord Kitchener's leg struck a projecting beam, breaking both bones clean above the ankle. The coolie bolted, leaving Lord Kitchener for half an hour in great agony. Other cooties' approached, but fled, declaring the "groat war Lord" was dead. Finally coolies brought a rickshaw, and conveyed Lord Kitchener to Simla. The leg was set, and is doing well. Inspection tours of Bawal-Pindi and Karachi have been cancelled.
