LONDON, Sept 19.-Cable special to the
Tribune.-A Berlin correspondent of the
Tribune, writes on the 18th: Bismarck
is busy at Rheims settling various dp'o-
matte matters Relative to non-interven-
ton by Germany in Italy, it is agreed
that the Italians may occupy Rome and
Savoy and Nice, if the people wish to re-
nounce their former allegiance. Other
European Cabinets have been notified &C.
cordingly.
The reorganization of Germany was
also considered. The details have been
postponed for the present, but it is un-.
| derstood that common constitution will
be given to all the States north and south
of the Main alike, with ample guarantees
for healthy political and economical
development. Bavaria and Baden distinct
ly decline territorial enlargement, while
agreeing that Alsace and Lorraine must re-
turn 10 Germany.
The recently appointed Civil Commits
sioner for Alsace, Won Muhlwetter, has
telegraphed to the Boards of Trade at e.
berfeld and Bremen for their views of
the influence on German industrial inter-
ests of the admission of Alsace and the
Department of the Moselle into the Ger

MIR. Malett, Second Secretary of the
British Embassy, who finally succeeded in
getting to the Prussian headquarters, re-
turned Friday, bringing an answer from
Bismarck to Lord Lyons. Before this
mission Lyons had asked Favre whether,
if England requested an armistice the
French Government would welcome her
Intervention. When this became known
to Lord Granville, Lyons was politely re-
buked for his pains.
Bent on improving the situation, Lyons
then sent Mallet on an informal mission
to Bismarck, notifying Granville after
Mallet had gone. Granville forthwith
directed Lyons 10 summon Mallet back.
Lyons obeyed. His messenger took the
wrong road, and Mallet, after several
failures, making his way Though crowd
of Uhlans, reached the Kings headquar-
tiers. Out of all this succession of cross
purposes grew a GOODNESS between Lyons
and Granville. Mallet's talk with
Bismatk was plain and to the point
He asked for an ultimatum. "We must
have Metz and Strasbourg," said Bis
marck. 'Dismanlledl" asked Mallett.
''No," replied Bismark, stronger than
ever" ''Then suppose the French Gov
eminent finds your terms impossible. "
''We shall invest and starve Paris, and if
that does not succeed we shall try shaper
means. ''WOuld you lombard the city2"
Certainly, and burn it if forced; the ne
cessity is sad but how to escape it,"
Bismarck's ralk about Gladstone and
Granville and their timid message carry
ing, was the reverse of respectful, and he
did not hesitate to let it be seen that he
cared nothing for the efforts of outsiders,
and was resolved to settle all questions
with France alone.
For Lyons himself Bismarck profess ed
respect and good will and cordially ad-
vised him to get out of Paris while he
could. He had notified Lord Granville
that the seige once begun he would allow
no communications between foreign gov
ernments and their embassies inside the
city.
The written answer by Bismarck TO
Lyons was confidential, and has not been
disclosed, but Lyons intimates that he
thinks Bismarck means to have Paris in
his hands before concluding peace as the
most effectual means of enforcing his de-
mands, nor is the French government, at
heart, confident of making a successful
defense.
Tr0chu to-day told Lyons he would do
his best but, he added, there will be a
massacre, and that will be followed by
anarchy. The ministers still utter brave
words.
Russias attitude is still one of reserve.
1t has come out that Gortschakoff, was
asked by England to join in fresh guar
antee for Belgium. He answered yes, if
you will include Holland.
