CENTRAL ASIA.
DELHI. August 26 (Received August 28, at 11 a.m.)
The situation in Russian Turkestan is still obscure, but evidence shows that the Bolsheviks have largely recovered the ascendancy. Reliable nows from Bokhara confirms the death in action of Enver Pasha. Tho body was recovered by Russian forces. A report from Kashgar states that the Bolsheviks requested tho Chinese Turkestan authorities to receive a delegation. with a view to framing a treaty. The request"was referred to Urumchi, the headquarters of tho Government. The materialisation of tho treaty is doubtful, owing to the antipathy of tho Turkoman and Chinese officials. For fifteen days telegraphic communication with Kabul was slopped owing to a wireless breakdown. It is mast unfortunate, as owing to the absence of a landline the British and Italian Missions are isolated.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
