she made was that Rosewarn had shot
her and himself. A small revolver was

LETT flank. Austria wavers in the uncer-
tainty OF action on the part of the Brit
ish government, while the latter is cyi-
IDENTIFY anxious to let the Turks fight it
out, their successes having much relieved
the embarrassment of the ministry.
England much as she desires to main.
tain her neutrality, could hardly silently
permit an active combination of the three
emperors to rob Turkey OF the results of
her victory. The political situation at
this moment is as critical rs it is inter
esting, England is as uncertain as ever.
Russia is appealing to Germany and the
situation is therefore almost wholly
under the control of Austria, who in
turn fears to be firm.

Russian frontier in ASIA, the Russians
are falling back in disorder in Europe
