LATE TELEGRAMS.
Mr Brodrlok and India's Army. London, August 13, -Mr-St. John Bro- drick, the Minister for War, speaking at Godalming in Surrey, said that India drew 7,000 soldiers from the British Army, and everyone with the Imperial instinct must wish the British and Indian armies to pull together ; but, if he spoke simply from the point of view of the War Office, he would Bay ⚫ Let India find her own soldiers and it -would-be-much-better for us. The Indian forces might need a larger number and pro- bably must do so; but that was not the Wir. Office demand or policy. It was the Indian demand and the Indian policy. The War Office had to make further provision, and found the way and their proposal was met with an outburst from the Indian Presa. But wo are offering India,' he Length 121.

The Minister for war and his Critics.
August 14.-Mr Brodrick said that it was impossible for any Government, con- eidering the defensivo needs of the Empire as a whole, to ignore the demands of India in case of emergency... The South African- proposal, he said, was made in the intereste of India, and the alternative was a consider- able increase in the permanent garrison of India. The necessity, therefore, was not due to our difficulties in Europe or to any trouble upon India by our Imperial position, but to the needs and difficulties THE Undersigned has received instruc-of India herself, and such increase would THE

a very heavy chargo on the tax- payers of India. Ho deprecated the strong language of some of the members, which, with the highly-coloured comments at of the native press, were calculated to create the impression that the Imperial Government sought to impose India, charges which England ought to bear. Such a statement was absolutely un- justifiable. If the South African proposal was abandoned, some future Government of India would have to increase the permanent 5th garrison. It was because he favoured economy in keeping down India's military expenditure hat he assented to the proposal of the Government for negotiating a subsidy and an agreement with the Ameer, similar 1819 to the agreement with his father. He would do his utmost to secure the amelioration of the condition of Indians' already in South Afrio, and, unless an improvement was guaranteed, he would not ennction any pro- posals encourning immigration.

A Theftuoas Bookbinder.
A sentence of six weeks' hard labour was passed this morning by Mr T. Sercombe Smith on a bookbinder in the employ of Mess. Guedes and Co. for the theft of a quantity of paper. It appears that the suspicions of Messrs. Guedes and Co. were aroused, and upon searching a bag supposed to contain rubbish some valuable paper was found, and, after due enquiry, the book- binder was arrested. It was ascertained that the supposed 'rubbish' was taken regularly to a lane off Pottinger Street, where several sacks of paper wore found.
Alleged Perjury.
Rumours of Military Mobilisation.
It has been in the air during the past few days that a mobilisation of the military forces is to take place before the departure of Sir William Gascoigne this month, but upon inquirics being made there seems to bo little foundation for the rumour. Many of the senior officers are away on leave just at present, and in addition to that there is not likely to be any extraordinary man- œuvres during the hot weather. No doubt there will ben parade of the troops, but beyond that we are given-to-understand that nothing will take place.
