US TO SAFEÏÏ OF KING.Official Circles Openly Voice Apprehension.EVERY EFFORT WAS MADE TO ' HAVE KING ABANDON VISIT TO INDIA.London, December 18.\u2014Apprehension for the safety of King George in India is now voiced openly in official circles.The rumor of the King\u2019s assassination on Friday was the natural outcome of the fear felt 'in London and shows how keenly the nerves are on edge of those whose material interests would he affected or who realize the danger of tbs crisis which would be precipitated if harm came to the sovereign.Every effort was made to pursuade the King to abandon his visit, but he was obdurate in the face of the evidence of Indian unrest, which wa.i seeking an opportunity such as the royal presence would afford to demonstrate its strength.Those whose advice he did not heed, now feel justified in saying \u201cI told you so.\u201d An appreciation of the danger of the situation is shown by Parliament in its present treatment of the announcement of the removal of the capital of Calcutta to Delhi, and the re-arrangement of the boundaries of Bengal and Assam.It was a stroke of genius for the ministry to induce the King to make the announcement This, in a measure stifled criticism on account of the desire not to reflect on the King-Emperor, but the main consideration, which was best implied by Bonar Law, the leader of the Opposition in the House, is that it would be dangerous to the King\u2019s safety to agitate the subject while royalty is in India.While reports that the burning of the Durbar\u2019s tents was caused by incendiaries have been discountenanced by the press, the belief is wideapread that they were purposely set on lire as a protest against British rule.The ministry will breath a sigh of relief when the Indian excursion passes into history.AND THE UNITED STATES.Threat Made to Sever Friendly Relations Between Two Countries.SULZER\u2019S RESOLUTION TO ABROGATE TREATY OF 1832 RESENTED.Washington, Dec.18\u2014What in dip-Jomatic language is interpreted here j as practically a threat by Russia to sever all friendly relations with the United States in the event thai) congress goes ahead with its plan to abrogate the treaty of 1832 with that country, has been majde to President i Taft and Secretary of State Knox î by tbe Russian Ambassador, George ! Bakhmeteff.Mr.Bakhmeteff protested .against the Sulzer resolution for the ' abrogation of the treaty on the ground that its final adoption would be inconsistent with the long friendship that has existed between the United States and Russia.¦ The resolution was introduced in the Senate owing to the fact that Russia will not allow Jewish citizens from the United States into Russia and this, il> h contended, is' a breach of the tie.ity of 1832.AIR HAH CLEARED 1 Washington, D.O., December 18.\u2014 The Russian treaty situation cleared materially yesterday and the administration plans for the abrogation of the 1832 pact with the St.Petersburg Government became more definitely known.President Taft, it is said, has indicated emphatically that he would veto the Sulzer resolution instantly if it sho.nld be forced through the 'Senate tomorrow without modification.Nothing that can be constructed as an offence to Russia will be permitted, if the President can help it.King George Has Departed on a Shooting Expedition.GRAVE RISKS WERE TAKEN WHEN TRANSFER OF CAPITAL;
