A Berlin correspondent explains that the
absence of reference to European politics IN
the speech of the Emperor at the opening OF
the Prussian Diet, Tuesday, was due to the tact
that such mention would be out of place in
speech from the Prussian throne. The reason
that no reference was made to the questions OF
school and church policy would BE- that no
legislative step in these regions is contem-
plated.

The Difficulties Encountered by France
and England.

The Difficulties Encountered by France
and England.
PARIS, Oct. 29.-The Telegraph says: 'The
mission at Vienna, of Laring and De. Bleg--
neres, the recently appointed comptrollers of
Egyptian finances, has failed and the failure
may seriously compromise the action of France
and England in Egypt. THIS the first result
of the recent Austro-German alliance is an OPP
position to the settlement Of Egyptian affairs.
Tho resistance of Turkey to reasonable ar
rangement of the Greek question is attributa-
BILE to the same cause. The object OF the mis-
sion of Laring and Blegnieres to Vienna was
to induce Austria to accept the commission of
control in Egypt. Austria insists that the
commissions operations must be subordinated
to the prior claims of the creditors who hold
mortgages on the estates surrendered by the
Khedive's family to guarantee the recent
Rothschild loan. AS the Rothschild loan was
negotiated with the aid of the French and
English governments, Austria's opposition on
this point really affects the whole question of
European interference in Egypt.

Hanlan Going to Australia to Row Trick



EFT.
TORONTO, Oct. 29.-Han lan contemplates
visit to Australia. He says he will go If tn
people of Toronto, or the men who mad
money out of his races, subscribe part OF the
expenses of the journey. He would allow
Trickett $500 expenses to come here and row
for $10,0 900 side, but the Australian declines
to allow cent for the champion to go there.
Hanlan declares ne will not bulge from the
conditions contained in the articles he sent
Courtney. Hanlan will certainly not go to
Washington, and will insist on Blaikie being
referee He thinks Courtney very much over
rated, and is fully persuaded, as he has been
from the beginning, that the Union Springs
man never meant to row. He thinks Court
ney belongs, body and bones, to Soule, who is
merely using him as means for advertising.
Han!an will surrender the Sportsman's Cup
sooner than go to England this winter, but will
protest Eliott's claim to it until he has proved
himself the best man in England by defeating
Boyd.

and inform Courtney that if he wants to row
he will have to come to Toronto Bay and put
up stake like every other oarsman has to.
