A European War Inevitable.


Inc 81. Petersburg correspondent of tho
Morn DeutSche hUe0enleine ZeituR0 writing
about Russia's demand for Bessarabia, SAYS:
Lei no one deceive himself as TO what iS
coming The desire TO recover Bessarabia in
only a symptom OF a wish peryading tina
entire Russian nation To destroy the Paris
treaty Ii Is not SO much Bessarabia we are
STRIVING for; what We are aiming at is the
canoeing OF this treaty. Whether the re-
arrangement OF Turkey is regulated by con-
goess, conference or war, the demand for tho
restoration OF BeSSarabia Will always be pre-
lerred with the same pertinacity. Suppose
we should be baked this time, this would onlV
the future"
ENGLAND JUST AS PERSISTENT AS RUSSIA.
Inc London Times, in its leading editorial
says regarding this" Russia appears TO be
ready 10 make numerous concessions pro-
Nlded she can substitute for common Euro
pean interests in Turkey set OF isolated and
cenfllcting interests, and can thus emancipate
herself, no less than Turkey, from direct obi
CATIONS toward Europe. Ii is this disposition
against which We must peTsistently protest."
Inc TaneS Vienna correspondent, discuss
ing the Austrian policy, while pronouncing
the rum0rs regarding the occupation of Bos-
MIA and Herzegovina as premature, does not
say That they are more than premature, but
rather lntlmates that such measure NAV soon
become justifable. The statements regarding
the Significance of the GRAND Duke NichOlaS
departure from San StefanO are contradic-
tory.
RUSSIA AND sERvIA
A Reuter- telegram from Belgrade SAYS it
appears that the friendship between Russia
and Seryia Is completely restored It has been
arranged that Servia, i'm the event of an An
Clio Russian war, shall only observe the stipu-
lations OF the San Stefan0 treaty, while Tur-
key remains neutral.
THE MUSSULMAN INSTRUCTION.
The vienna correspondent of the Times saws
the MuSsulman instruction appears TO be
growing serious. IL involves not only the
whole OF the northern half OF the Rhodop0
range, but according TO one account is spread
ing TO the Balkans. The insurgents are en-
deavoring TO gain strategic points in a way
that shows the existence OF a directing head
MORE WAR SIGNS.
The I0ttttcdI Correspondence SAYS the nego-
tlationS between the Russian Headquarters
and Admiral Horribly for a simultaneous with
drawal have remained at a complete standstill
for the last few days. It is reported that Gen.
TOdleben brought fresh instructions, and tho
resumption OF these negotiations will possibly
be attempted. The idea has been revived Of
summOning Count SchOuvaloff To discharge
Prince GortSchakoff's functions ad interim
The Times correspondent at San Stefano also
says the impression in the Russian army is
that General TObleben's appointment pOr-
tends strife. He continues: / am told that
Generals Todleben and Imertinsky both think
war inevitable.
Italy is making warlike preparations, IL in
said, to dispatch force into Albania
