London, April 22.-In spite Of the ncgo-
tiations concerning simultaneously the
withdrawal of the English fleet aud Rus

English press is one Of great uncasiness.
1t is noticeable that all Of the Berlin spe-
Gals to the English papers are couched in a
very dcspondent tone. They dwell on
the difficulties which will be encountered in
settling the details Of any scheme for with

in the same tone. One says: "Thc aspect
