The Thibetan Campaign.
(Per Press Association—Copyright) ; , London, May 24. The Tunes' correspondent at Gyantse states that recent events reveal intrigues with M. Dorjieff, the Russian Agent. He adds : " After tho Amban defeated hia projected Russian treaty plans, M. Dorjieff rashly annouposd that a small body of Cossacks, as a sign of Russia's good.will, would enter Lhassa in the spring of 1903. His influence is possibly on the wane, but he still brazens the ■matter out. The recent receipt of Russian rifles lent colour to his promises. His influence must, at all costs, be terminated."
