England's neutrality in the existing
war is now considered absolutely as
sured, so long as Russia keeps her
pledges not 10 interfere with British
Indian interests or routes. 1t j. also
assumed here that Russia will demand
as conditions OF peace the cession of
Servia and Bosnia to Austria, a portion
Of Armenia TO the Car, and the cession
OF Bulgaria to Roumania, to be erected
into independent States to bold the
mouth OF the Danube under lnterna-
tional guarantees as Belgium holds the
mouth of the Rhine. Germany prob
ably will not object to this arrange
ment, but the only thing apparently
certain is that the Continental Powers
expect to settle the new boundaries
without regard to England, who is in
such a position that her diplomacy is
practically powerless to affect the ques
ton. This creates some uneasiness,
because it seems 10 leave England no
choice but absolute acquiescence or re-
monstrance by means of aggressive
war.

The Tribune's London special says:
Official kilograms of the successes of
the Turkish army in Asia are pub
lished, but receive little credit. Kars
still holds out against the Russians,
who outnumber the Turks three to
one. The Turks have only a hundred
rified and fifty-four smooth bore guns,
but their strong position at karsdagh
enables them to hold the enemy at bay.
The Russians at Bayazid are said to
have capitulated. There is an article
10 the Berlin Post suggesting the rams
fer Of the European-hnrkish provinces
to Austria, the Greek provinces ex-
copied. 1t is said to be inspired by
Bismarck, who does not wish Russia
to get too much territory. His under
standing with the Gar is perfect, and
there is probably some foundation for
the statement. 1t is believed that Ger
many and Russia have a secret treaty
of alliance, and this causes much OF
the hesitation characterizing the action
of the British Cabinet.
