ively Felt and Dreaded--Movements of
Russian Troops In Roumania--Arrival OF
Austrian Iron Clads In the Bosphorus--
Notes and Comments from Different
Points.
THE SITUATION ACCORDING TO A CORRESPONDENT
LONDON, May 10.-A Vienna correspondent
commenting on the hopes of peace revived by
Count Schouvaloff's expected arrival at St. Pc
tersburg, and the increased friendly character
of pour parlers, says notwithstanding way
found egress, is neither short nor easy.
1t is after all nothing more nor
less than solving the most vital questions, that
is doing in great measure the work of con-
gress itself. certain nervousness, therefore,
exists, it being instinctively felt that the pres
ent may possible be the last effort to arrive at
peaceful solution.
The pending pour I,arlers no longer relate to |
formula for Congress, but to the merits of
settlement in the East, and if irreconcilable |
antagomisms should result in or more
points, it would go far to bring
that Russia will really make the concessions
she promised, and security that England will
demand nothing further. It would form a
dangerous anomaly to leave the armed forces
of the two sides face to face while they have
automatically agreed. The withdrawal, there
fore, Of the British feet and Russian army
seems to be q national corollary of any under
standing.
This scheme is now preached not in the old
form, as security against accident, but in con-
nection with guarantee for the fulfllment of
an agreement to be made. England is credited
no sv;% in{. IL:
posed to demand the withdrawal of Russian
troops beyond the Balkans pledge for Rus
sia's promise not to place herself in opposition
to the wishes of Europe, while, in such case,
she would be ready to withdraw her feet.
Curiously, at this juncture the Abend Posts
st. Petersburg correspondent announces that
in consequence Of Mahometan instruction
and the hostile attitude in Roumania it is pos
sible that Russian troops will withdraw from
Roumelia after Verna,l Shumla and Batoum
have surrendered. This leaves the impression
that the car would not object to the retire
ment of the Russian army from Roumania pro-
vided he obtained Batoum, which would mean
that England had withdrawn her opposition to
Russias retaining it.
Pera dispatch says the insurgents at
Rhodope have issued proclamation TO the
Christian population of Thrace, Macedonia and
common enemy.
A Belgrade dispatch says the Mahomedans and
Albanians, in old Serva, are rising in rebellion.
An insurrectionary fermentation is perceptible
among the Mahomedan population Of Nisch.
TURKISH PARLIAMENT.
CoNsrANr1NoPIE, May 9.-The Turkish par
lament will shortly be convoked to deliberate
upon the new electoral arrangements. Three
Austrian iron clads, ordered here from Smyrna,
arrived to-day.
RUSSIAN MOVEMENTS.
| BUCHAREST, May 9.-Five thousand Russians
guard the bridge over the river Sireth and the
E passes. Roum anian jour
nails daily chronicle Russian movements, but
the numbers are small, and the transfers close
ly resemble settling into place the army occu-
patton. The present attitude of the Roumanian
I gov ernment towards the Russians is based on
Premier Bratianos circular to the projects.
! Seven thousand Russian transport carts
have left Bucharest for Bulgaria
during the past few weeks. There is a large
park of wagons at Kischeneff. The Bulgarians
closed Roumanian school and seized a church
hitherto permitted by the Turks, at the Bull
garian town of Turtukoi. Large shipments OF
heavy shell have recently been made from the
line of the Danube to the Black Sea.
| The Turkish commander at Volo has assured
the British consuls that all irregular troops
have been sent out of Thessaly. Two more
British iron-clads of the channel squadron have
! arrived at Fort SAID.
CRITICIsING GLADSTONE.
LONDON, May 1O.-This mornings Times
criticising the speech made by Gladstone yes
terday to deputatien of the Welsh Liberia
association at Howarden, in which he denounc
ed the government in violent terms, says: Hi
language was SO reckless as to entirely over
shoot the mark. 1t reads like speed
prompted by desperation.
The Times also says it believes the govern
ment, on the whole, is acting wisely in tn
present crisis of the fact that Gladstone can
not arouse the country by wholesale denuncia
lions of the government, the London news
papers, fashionable people and educated sc
ciety, into some expression of opinion to tn
. contrary, shows the country does not dissen
from the governments policy.
