"Everything was quiet, and all the various lactions thoroughly under control. In fact, I may guy I never knew Kabul to be more tranquil than during the time the Afridi rising was to progress. There was, it is bug, some anxiety at first as to how it could affect us, but so firm is the Ameer's rule that the prople remained passive.

Asked as to what was really the Ameer's attitude towards the British Government in connection with the frontier war, Sir Salter sald

"I am very happy that my prophecies of past years with regard to the Amerr's attitude have proved to be true, and I am glad to have had the opporrorley of arelog for myself how true a ally to Great Britain His Highners has proved himself to be. When the Afridi depatation came to solicit the Amter's ascistance, Abdur. rahman kept them at Kabul until after the war

"N-thing to farther from the the truth thin the suggestion that His Highness in any way approved of the Alléls' acilon. He did all be coold to put the movement down, but the sug. gestion that he could have scot troops agains! them was not a practical one. Concerning any part Ghelam Halder Khan, the late Commander in-Chlel, may be supposed to have taken, I will y nothing. The Ameer could not, even if he were called upon to do so, kad troops ginst the aebel tribesmen, as more of them wee ander Afghan rule or lived in Afghan territory. The boundailes of Afghanistan da no embrace the A'ridis or any of the re- volied tribesmen. As a fact, both the Ameer and Afghanistan lost heavily by the fron- fer troubles. They occasioned a loss to the Ameer of over seventy lakhs of rupees, and the results to the country were serious. The bazuari were almost deserted, sad there was no mazke for Afghan products, such as grapes and other klods of trait, owing to the blocking of the roads. Some of the workshops bad to be closed, as the asu 1 supplies of tron and fuel were not forth- coming.

"There was, too much privation in Kabal The commonest black tos rose from à to 12 rapecs per poood, soar was 2 rupres per pound, and Machester goods realised enormous prices. The whole trade of Afghanistan was, in fact, paralysed; the frult harvest was practically lost, and great distress was occarloned. The Ameer was much assayed at the closing of the Rhaiba Pass and at the caravan routes belog stopped by avrate which he considers might have beeg averted,”
