I.—(By the Associated Press.) —Although not yet officially announced, it is under stood authoritatively that the Egyp tian government has accepted all the British demands, made at the time of the assassination of Major General Sir Lee Stack. Its first immediate consequence will be the evacuation by the British of the Alexandria customs house. The ministers of education and public works have resigned and it is expected the minister of communi cations will follow suit.” SITUATION IN EGYPT AND SUDAN CONTINUES QUIET LONDON, Dec. I.—(By the Asso ciated Press.) —Egypt has agreed to the outstanding terms previously un accepted, which were laid down after the assassination of the sirdar, Sir Lee Stack. Messages to this ef fect, it is learned from authoritative sources, have been received from Lord Allenby, British high commis sioner in Egypt. The demands to which the Egyp tian government at first refused to accept were that all Egyptian offi cers and purely Egyptian units of the Egyptian army be withdrawn from the Sudan; that an increase in irrigation be permitted in the Sudan and that opposition cease to British wishes concerning protection of for eign interests in Egypt. After the Egyptian refusal, the British au- I thorities themselves ordered the | Egyptian troops to evacuate the i Sudan and some of them have left. [ The situation both in Egypt and I the Sudan continues quiet, according to the latest reports from newspaper correspondents, whose dispatches imply that further trouble, in the Sudan, at any rate, is improbable. Propagandists Blamed The mutiny of a small body of troops in the Eleventh Sudanese battalion is generally ascribed di rectly to the influence brought to bear on the men by their officers, acting in behalf of Egyptian propa gandists. The full extent of the casualties among the mutineers, suffered dur ing their fighting with the British, apparently will not be established until the ruins of the building in which they barricaded themselves are cleared away, but some reports indicate that only about a score lie under the debris. A Cairo dispatch on Saturday said one officer and fourteen men of the mutineers were believed to have been killed, the remainder surren dering, with the exception of a small number who were being rounded tip by the police. An offi cial communique showed that two British officers, one British physi cian and two Syrian physicians were ' killed and nine men of the ranks wounded. * British to Withdraw Troops The Cairo correspondent of the Daily Express says an agreement has been reached by which the Brit ish troops will be withdrawn from the Alexandria customs house, which they recently occupied. This, he adds, would seem to indicate con? fidence in the ability of the new premier, Ziwar Pasha, to hold down the extremists and ful fill the British terms. Mustaf Nahas, former minister, and a number of other lawyers have addressed a letter to the public pros? ecutor protesting against the arrest of members of the chamber of depu ties in connection with alleged plots against the British and demanding i their release. A message received today say.« the ' Cairo schools, in which the students { have been on strike, are reopening ! and that the situation is quiet in ; Cairo and Alexandria. There is no prospect of further dis orders, this message asserts. Underwood Urges Judge Grubb for King’s Successor WASHINGTON. Dec.
