capacity Of defensive ally Of Turkey and Of mediator BE-

that the inference has succeeded in its mission

this that Prussia has at length been formally invited
to the Conference, not to negotiate treaty but to
cede the result of the negotiations bet the Powers
which interested in the matter" Prussia having
to allow her any part In the settlement OF matters in
which che refused to take active interest; but
the psstss soncsrnsd Prussa is sStted % to sign that
arrangement % Witness Moreover, a. one OF the OBJ
scts Of the Conference is the revision Of the treaties of
1e40 and 1884, has been thought exoedtent just and
due to Prussia to invite her to participate in the revi
sion Of to which she party With the terms
