ABSTRACT
The Journey to Bombay.— The Afghan party, which included the Queen, Ghulam Sadik Khan, the officiating Foreign Minister, and many other high officials, were welcomed at Chaman, where Colonel St. John handed His Majesty telegrams of welcome from King George and from the Viceroy. During the passage of the Khojak tunnel, after leaving Chaman in a special train, a member of the Afghan party somewhat unfortunately pulled the communication cord. This resulted in the breakage of couplings, which took some time to repair. Fortunately a strong wind was ventilating the tunnel, but even so, with four engines smoking, it was a disagreeable experience.
