ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF LORD MIN'IO. INDIGNATION AT THE OUTRAGE. Received November 16, 8.5 a. m. LONDON, November 15. The "Daily Newn" says that nowhere wi]J public indignation be more irenuine over the attempt on the life of Lord Minte than in India. "The incident could not well have been timed with more sinister ingenuity," says the ".News." "The Councits Act was about to come into operation, and an amnesty was confidently anticipated in reJation to certain political prisoners, more especially in the cases of the niDe Bengalese who were deported without trial. The deportations were the principal cause of the persistent bitterness 1 up on which the terrorists worked. Lord Morley had abundant evidence that two or three of the deported would strongly oppose the Act with violence. The most effective blow at terrorism would be to .release untried prison-ere.'' The "Standard" says that Ah•medabad was the birthplace of Dr Laeaca, whom Dhingra fatally wounded at the time he shot Sir ■Gurzon Wyllie dead at the Imperial Institute. The inhabitants at Ahmedalbad had publicly expressed horror at JDhingra's crime. 'Be "Daily Telegraph" says that AJimedabad has the repuatation of beseg a prosperous, contented and loyal city. "The Tlpjes" states that the bomb thrown at the Vicreoy struck the escorting jemadar's wrist.
