BRITISH POLICY UNCHANGED.
REFORMS WILL BE CARRIED OUT. BUT OUTRAGE SEVERELY REPrtESSED. LONDON, 15lh November. The Times, commenting on the bombthrowing incideait at Ahmedabad, remarks that "this attempted assassination of the Viceroy — iMian whom no man has worked harder on behalf' of reform — will evoke throughout the Empire a feeling of profound horror, mingled with intense relief at the failure of the plot. Doubtless the Anarchists hoped, by striking at the head of the Government, to prodiice such a feeling of insecurity among all menlbers and officials of that Government as would tend to paralyse the Administration. In this they would have been disappointed. Nor can any such menaces cause Britain to waver in the execution of reforms ; but that these alone will not stop sedition and must be accompanied by the mo.«t stringent repression of so-called political crime is made clearer than ever by this latest outrage."
