gan a political speech, when Mr.. Wilson,

dERSIANY AND FRANCE.

LONDON, January PA Adispatch from
Paris says that the recent hostile utter
ances OF the German press have caused a
very serious impression there. The
French journals advocate strict at.
titude Of non.interiereuce in regard to
the foreign affairs. They deny that
any extraordinary measure Of army
organization are on foot. The Standards
Paris special says that the recent killing
of the German sailor by some French
seamen atSmyrna, is unduIy magnifed
by the German press.
Owing TO the international difficulty
the French government has ordered an
inquiry, and will give every satisfaction.
The affair was the result OF Il drunken
brawl.
a Berlin special states that the feeling
OF resentment against France because Of
her supposed hostility Mt the ConstanIino-
pie conference continues unabated.

Moscow, January 2O.--The Gaseiie Of
to-day discussing the result Of the Con-
ference concludes that Europe has
lowered her prestige by her com-
plant manner towards Turkey. In.
asmuch as the Porte has refused
the pro posals Europe must now en-
force her original demands instead Of the
Conference which Turkey has rejected.
While il would seem that the Confer
ence is hope leSsly dissolved, yet 1t would
also seem that the Turkish Government
does not yet despair Of peace. a dispatch
from ConstaDtinople reads as follows:
coSsrANTIsoPLE, January 20.-The
Grand Vizier was summoned TO the
palace yesterday. The Ottoman plenipo-
tentiarfes will present counter proposals
to the Conference with the object Sf con-
ciliation.
It would only be the natural outcome

The Turkish Conference Finally
Dissolved.

Among our dispatches Saturday niGhl
was the following from London:
LONDON, January 2O.-Sanfet Pasha
opened proceedings at to.day's sitting oi
the Conference by reading note stating
that the Porte might come to an under
standing with the powers in certain points
oil detail, but passing over in silence the
proposal regarding the appointment ol
governors aud instead Of an international
commission proposing Il local elective
commission presided over by the Otto
man fnnctionary. Finslly Saufet sug,
geSted that the settlement relating to Ser.
via and Montenegro be reserved for
Interior decision. ThCreupon Lord
Salisbury declared that the Porte hay.
ing refused two Of the chief guarantees
demanded by the Powers, there no Ion.
ger was any common basis for discus.
sion, and the Conference therefore must

General lgnatiell, Russian PIenipo.
tentiary, spoke similarly. lie declared
the Portes proposals Unacceptable, and
laid stress upon the responsibility
resting on the Porte, and expressed The
hope that Turkey would not undertake
hOslilities against Servia, but cause The
position OF her Christian subjects to be
respected, The Conference then broE'

Lord Salisbury and General Ignalieil
leave Monday, and other plehipOtcntia
rles leave in course OF the week.
1t seems from the above that the tw,
propositions upon which the ConTerenct
iinely split are these: Will Turkey CON
sCnt to allow the European Powers tC
dictate the appointment Of Governor
otthe Turkish provinces for the mex
five years; and secondly, will Turkey con
sent to the appointment Of Europeal
commission, in which she shall be allowed
large representation, to decide upon re
lorms in the Turkish administration?
Turkeys objections to these two pro
positions will at once suggest themselvC
from the nature otthC propositions them
