LORD LANSDOWNE REPLIES.
WILL PURSUE THE STRUGGLE. Received Nov. 19, 5.50 p.m. London, Nov. 18. Lord Lansdowne said that the report General Monro had made, and the evidence accompanying it, did not seem sufficient to enable the Cabinet to arrive at any conclusion. Great questions of policy were involved, and they therefore determined to ask Lord Kitchener to visit the eastern Mediterranean. Lord Kitchener, he said, had a wids experience of the East, and was tlior oughly familiar with the views of h's colleagues. He had gone in order to report and advise the Government. Hit results of Lord Kitchener's mission were still unknown. The visit of the War Committee to Paris was a most important step in recognition of the principle of the closest co-operation of the Allies. The development of events in the Near East did not depend entirely upon our will. This was not the moment to consider the question of peicc, as the country intended to pursue the great struggle that had been forced upon it to a successful issue.
