that nobody in France wished for war. Hail
the statesmen of the Republic are protesting

but was forced into it by his belligerent sub.
jects. Yet somehow or another war got tse!f
made in France, and now the Government re-
fuses to accept peace. The truth, we believe,
is that Napoleon, for purely personal and
dynastic reasons, brought on the rupture over
the absurd Spanish question, and France, in
her vain passion for glory, gave him hearty
support. She has taken upon herself the re-
sponsibility of a crime and she cannot refuse

Count Bismarck takes occasion in his circu-
lar to the North German Representatives to
enumcratc some of the disadvantages to which
the AImistcc proposed by him would have
subjected the German armies. The immense
army which had just reduced Metz would have
been forced to "a months idleness; the half
million Of men invading France would have
had 10 draw their subsistence at immense
cost and labor from Germany; no reinforce
mcnts could come forward to the invaders,
while the French recruitment and organization
would proceed. These were grave consider
ations, and in every military sense would have
justified the refusal of any arInistce whatever.
That King William should have consented to
such sacrifices shows his earnest desire for the
conclusion of the war. That the Paris Gov
eminent should have refused to accept the
offer, unless the additional sacrifice of per-
mitting the provisioning of Paris was made
10y the Germans, betrays its weakness.

ERIE ACCIDENTS.

We have heard it sad in palliation of the
misdeeds of Mr. James Fisk, jr, that If he
has stolen a railroad he knows how to run it,
and that he treats his passengers WELL even
though he ruins his stockholders. In q little
controversy which we had with Mr.. Fisk some
time ago, We showed that these statements
were very far from the truth. many more persons
having been killed and injured on the road
since it came under his management than dur
ing a corresponding period of the previous
administration. correspondent writes us
now to complain of the almost constant dis
order and irregularity of the local trains be-
tween Ncw-Yorl and Port Jervis. There is
general dissatisfaction, we are assured, among
the commuters living at stations on this part
of the road. and the frequency of accidents
occasions considerable alarm. About week
ago there was a collision at Goshen between a
stock and coal train, in consequence of which
four trains due at Jersey City between and
10 a. m, came in all together at o'clock in
the afternoon. On election day three coal
trains were smashed up near the same place,
and the morning passengers were again
delayed fpOm an hour to four hours. 1t
is not long since the lightning express
ran into circus companys special train
at Turner'S Station, killing the manager
of the circus. The Coroner's Jury CEN
sured the engineer for not giving sufficient
warning, and the brakesmen for not being at
their posts. In fact, says our correspondent,
L" the wrccking- train is almost constantly en-
"ployed transporting disabled engines and
clearing the track of distractions"
We believe that the minor accidents on the
Erie Railway are seldom reported in the New
York papers, in consequence of the efforts of
the officials to hush them up. No employe of
the road is allowed to divulge any particulars
of an accident under penalty of dismissal, and
telegraph operators are forbidden to send ac-
counts of disaster over the wires. 1t is only
from the stories of passengers, therefore, that
the news can be obtained and passengers are
generally too eager to get to their places of
business to volunteer information to the press.
Serious disasters of course cannot be con-
cealed but if the full story of small accidents
were told, it might interfere Il great deal with
Mr.. Fisk's amusements.

TIE EASTERN QUESTION REOPENkI

Russia has at last thrown off the mask. Her
preparations, military and diplomatic, which
have been making foI several months are com
pleted, and she has demanded at the Courts
of the Great Powers the revision of the treaty
of 1856, which neutralizcd the Black Sea and
denied her armed steamers admission to the
Dardanellcs. The design has been long sus-
pected az the columns of THE TRIBUNE bear
witness the demand has long been anticipated,
yet, coming as it now does In official form, 1t
may cOnvulse Europe and asitate the rest of
the world.
The articles OF the treaty most obnoxious TO
Russia, and forced upon her by the alliance of
France, England and Turkey, are, of course,
those which prevent her from forlifying her
Southern coast or entering the Black Sea with
her navy. These articles are as follows:
ART H. The Black Sea Is nsutralized. while open TO
the mercantile marines OF all nations its waters and ports
formally and In perpeuy nterdcted TO vessels OF
war, whether belonging 20 nations having territory bor
dering on II or otherwise
ART Is. The Black Sea being neutrazed by forego
ing provision Russia and Turkey engage neither to con-
struc maintain any naval military arsenal upon
It's coast.
The long-manifcst desire of Russia to
'oPoo''So 'ho b'"'h 'c"' u Hoe I" ""'"i"' ''''
is certainly consistent with her past policy.
The Black Sea is not only her chief southern
outlet for the immense trade of tho regions
trayersed by her principal rivers, the Danube
and the Dneper, but il is also her best
defense in war. The Russians, in justifying
their policy, will perhaps lay greater stress
than we can upon the fact that it also offers
the best base for aggressive operations
against their old enemy, the Turk There ia
every reason, therefore, why Russia, finding
her hopes OF extension westward destroyed
by the unfcatiOn of Germany, should
seek again tho old channel for
