GoRTsCHAKOFE IN DIsFAvoR.
7 LoNDsE May 21.-The following special
was read from st. Petersburg last evening:
Nothing has yet transpired here regarding
the results of Count Schouvaloffs
mission. AT the Palace it was thought that
the last hesitations of the Emperor were
overcome by a letter from Berlin, counsel
ing full concessions in view Of the existence
of revolutionary Indications 1t is an
nounced on credible authority that changes
in the organization of the Cabinet are con-
templated. Schouyalotf is to return and
take the chief direction OF public affairs.
General discontentment among the people
is manfesting itself on the subject 'nH the
concessions said to have been made to Eng
land 1t would be idle work to send you
the wild and generally ridiculous rumors
that circulate in reference to the conditions
formulated and accepted. Prince Gortsch-
akotfis almost everywhere pronounced in
capable. Indeed, he is blamed with all the
unnecessary humiliation that it is said Rus
sa has submitted to. General sympathy is
now centering round Ignatieif. The very
fact that he is in disfavOr at Court renders
him popular with the masses.
A CATEGORICAL EXPLANATION DESIRED.
LONDON, May 21.-There is a rumor in
diplomatic circles here, apparently we'll
founded that the British Government has
sent instructions to Lord Lotus, Ambassa
dor at st. Petersburg, to request categorl-
cal explanation from the Russian Foreign
Office concerning the reported armament OF
Russian s)rivateer5 in the Cniied States. 1t
is also understood that Lord Lotus Is to
make inquiries about the mission Of the
Cimbria, whose recent arrival in American
waters has created such sensation here.
HOPES AND FEARS.
LoNpoN, MAY 21--The following is from
source highly entitled to credit: The re-
suit of Count SChOuvalofs mission has been
that on certain points Russia and England
are now agreed; that on others, one OF
which at least is OF great importance, no
agreement could be effected by the Count
but that he was authorized to submit these
questions to the Judgment of Emperor Will
lam and Prince Bismarck; i'll other words,
to Germany as the arbiter; but at the same
time neither party has pledged itself to
abide by the decision Of Germany. Each
reserves to itself the right of rejecting the
decision although the chances are that each
| will accept
This is the explanation of Count Schouva-
| lofts pause at Berlin yesterday, his consul
tation with Herr Won Bulow and the En-
peror, and his journey to consult Prince
Bismarck. While all this does not necessa-
rily mean peace, it renders peace more prob
able than ever.
A dispatch from Berlin says it is reliably
stated that Herr Won BulOw, after his inter
view with Count SchouyaloH yesterday, an
nounced that there was every probability
of peaceful settlement OF the question be-
tween Russia and England
A dispatch from Bucharest says the en-
tir RoIp,apiap army jc 1opyinu eastward
along the Carpatllian Mountains.

cal outlook.
Other Foreign News.
THE SOCIALISTS IN GERMANY.
Advices from Berlin indicate anxiety,
caused by the discovery of the bold which
Socialistic opinions have obtained upon the
press. 1t is said that the whole professional,
educational and sections of society are hon
eycombed with these opinions, and that
they are prevalent also in the subordinate
classes of officials 1t is freely predicted
that the Government will find itself unable
to pass its proposed rest trictiye measures.
The police have prohibited the proposed
Socialist demonstration.
The German Federal Council have passed
bill against Socialists.
