War Feeling i'm England.

St,ANaNes -hRl 1Vt Ao4i.
The Times' London special says: The
signs of England taking hand in the war
accumulate. The TINES correspondent at
Berlin gives a sketch of the negotiations go-
ing on between England and France. Bis
msrck's sudden appearance in Berlin was
caused by an inkling that the MaeMahoa
coup d aat was the result of an understanding
between the Tory government and De Broy-
lie, that in the event OF France joining Eng
land for the establishment OF the treaty Of
Paris certain interior considerations should
be assured to France These considerations
the Berlin Cabinet are represented as Knowing
are a res,orar:1n OF Atsaee und Lorraine.
Confrmatory of this programme the English
war presses =hich firs, salured scMahon's
revolution with virulent maligui'y, have as
sumed a new tack and are now exrolling the
moderation and consery stism of the monarch
zeal conspiraiors. 4 L atieInpis TO drag he
late republican ministry into sn alliance with
Austria or England were inetf ciusl. The
republicans confident of strength in their
favor refused to plunge the country i0'o
war; Simon going 80 far as 10 say that
France must now pursue the policy OF Eng-
land and grow rich on The Inisforiunes Of her
neighbOrs. In Austria preparations are act
i've. 10 Germany TIE laDGs;rum has been
ordered out under the pretense of reOrguni-
z.tion. 1t is body which has uot been in
the field since 1912. Under cover of es;nb-
fishing AL equilibrium of forces ON the river
Rhine, Bismarck and MUlgke give out that
the frontier posts are TO be regarrisoued 10
prevent a surprise ON the part Of France.
Editorisily, every paper III London urges
England to prepare TO defend ITS interests III
the East. The generality of the press say
that if Turkey sues for peace within the next
two weeks. England must check the Russian
advance. The liberals. hoping to stay ;he
strong tide for gar. have OrganIZed a mOn-
ster meeting for Gladstone at Birming ham,
where anti-war declarations are 20 be put
forth aS last resort. Inquiries Us TO the
strength of the land and naval forces and the
numbe- of guns abound ON al sides. The
complete cessation of traffic on the DANUBE,
Black Sea aud Suez Canal, and even with
Rnssia, Is felt III every form OF business. The
merchants of the marine have begun 10 take
precautions In the event of sudden drclar-
alton. Commerce ON the Su,Z Canal Is com
ptlled to pay war risks. The English feel
stationed Oh both ends of that channel Is
ready for action. The British representative
in Egypt is constantly warning the govern
ment that the vital interests OF BRUSH sub
ieors are imperilrl and trade wholly des,roy'
ed. The y,s, commerce WI b India Is parAl-
wed, aud the cereal trade Is utterly annIhi-
lated. More alarming than 'his, the Mus
sulman population OF Iudia .,restive uuder The
apparen, delay, demand 10 be sent 10 mid
their Mnssnlman brethren, arrayed under the
banner of the prophet Every condition, in
dusrrial. diplomatic and otherwise, pushes
the na,ion forward i'll spite of the strong OPP
position from the liberal leaders and the
strong feeling from The liberal parry.
Telegrams from Vienna, Eerlia and Paris
represent the cabinets Of these countries as
hOpel,ss of pregep:lng Il general collision
: cautious, well informed member of parlIa-
mrnt for metropolitan district is responsible
for the assertion that, if put to vote to-m"r-
Tow. his constituency would demand instant
war for the preservation Of British interests.
