The St. Petersburg TstfoDsosn declares that

mcut. Russia cannot dsarm nnless she
is convinced that she Will not
lave to arm aXa!u. War may
not be Immediate, but It II inevitable. Tie

decide peace or war. However desirable peace

be necessary. The Journal de 81. I'<lers-

The Vienna correspondent Of the Standard re-
ports that, according 10 advtces from st. Peters
burg, Russia has ordered her squadsons In tho
Mediterranean aud American waters to return
to tho Baltic. Tho T;mts correspondent at
Vienna points out that tue question of dlsartna-
ment stlll remains the real question at issue. It
has not teen solved By the protocol, but
only postponed. The chances Of eventual agree
mcnt ahaut disarmament have not, perhaps,
hcen greatly Improved by transferring ncgot!a-
tIons from tho Powers to tho parties immedi.
Atcly interested and Influenced BY popular feel
lug. Tho turn which affairs hare taken IL I'm.
aoubtcl1y favorable. "a II removes tho danger
ct Immediate collision, and places tic Poycrs
course Of affairs, although no agreement sccus
yet made concerning the future mode Of pro-
eecdtng. It Is probable that England will be
allowed 70 take the lead IN the negotiations IN
Constantlnop1c.
