EGYPTIAN CRISIS.
BRITAIN ALERT. FOLLOWING EVENTS CLOSELY. SITUATION DISTINCTLY GRAVE. (Australian and N.Z. Press Assn.) LONDON, June 3. There is distinct gravity in the situation in Egypt. The impossibility of forecasting the outcome is emphasised in wellinformed circles in London. It is learned the Government is following events very closely and has kept the Egyptian Government fully informed of its views, abundantly demonstrating that Britain does not view with favour Zaghlul’s return to power. It is pointed out that Ziwar Pasha has not yet resigned, but when he does the King will doubtless summon Zaghlul, upon whose decision will depend the British attitude. MALTA, June 3. Although no further warships beyond the Resolution have gone to Egypt, several are under orders to depart at a moment's notice. ZAGHLUL’S DECISION. WILL NOT FORM CABINET. CAIRO, June 3. At the request of the deputies, Zaghlul has abandoned his idea of forming a Cabinet, and has agreed to resign the Premiership in favour of the Liberal leader Adly Yeghen.
