ers to be Held.
LONDON, August "A Conference Is
reported as likely to be soon convened
at one OF the European capitals, proba-
biz London or Vienna, in regard to the
attitude which it is necessary for the
principal Governments to assume to-
ward the .Socistie Naionals. The Con-
ference will, however, be nominaily
convened to discuss an altogether differ
ept matter, the threadbare Eastern
Question. This, however, is a mere
ieiut, and is intended simply to throw
lust in the eyes OF Democratic leaders.
There are signs everywhere that the
Socialists are preparing for another
outbreak. 1t is probable the site will
be Italy or Spain. The meeting in
London day or so ago, and the riot in
Vienna, are only the last events in
long series OF necessary manifestations
Of coming trouble.
France, Austria and England are the
powers which are arrangering the Con.
ference, but possibly the other principal
governments will be represented. Beust
and Granville will in person consult as
10 what is the best course to pursue.
Some general mode of dealing with the
social agitators will be adopted and
possibly some notifications OF the e1,
is,ing law in England, which makes
that country the refuge and the base OF
operations for revolutionists OF tn g
character. will be agreed upon. Such a
course, however, will lead to great and
perhaps dangerous political excitement
in Great Britain.
Underground Railroad Accident.
An appalling accident occurred on
the underground railroad at Moorgate
street, South Kensington, last night.
Two passenger trains collided about
midnight. Over fifty Persons were
severely injured, many Of whom cannot
recover.
1t is reliably asserted that there is
every indication that the ballot bill now
before the House OF Lords will be de-
feated by that house on the vote being
taken.
