WHITE MAN'S BURDEN.
AN UNPOPULAR ARREST.
LONDON, March 23. Replying to a question in the House of Lords, Lord Lytton declared that arising out of the arrest of a prominent local resident on a charge of sedition at Nagpur on Feb. 23 protest meetings were held and there was general abstention from work. This culminated in disturbances in which five thousand people participated. Two European officers and seven policemen were injured by missiles. The crowd looted the liquor shops. A small force of troops was called out and quiet restored.
