GLADSTONE INTERVIEWED.
The Qoulos, Paris newspaper, publishes an
interview with Gladstone who, replying to the
question whether in the event Of liberal VIC
tory at the next electorate would place him.
self at the head of affairs said Lords darlington
aad Granville would suffice for the task. HI
himself would only resume Office If forced by
his fellow countrymen. The G0ulos further
says Gladstone deprecated contention with
Russia about Afghanistan, and said he be-
lieved there would not be any trouble. India
had absolutely nothing to fear from Russia,
which has as much as she can do to hold her
conquests in Turklstan. The Austro- German
alliance he said was doubtless intended as a
check to Russia but the Importance of such
an alliance ahould not be exaggerated, a. Bis
marck would abandon it as readily as he had
abandoned the parties which had served his
purpose. Gladstone thought France and EGG
land had made q mistake in permitting Turkey
to resume her privileges in Egypt by deposit
ton of the khedive; that it was also mistake
toexclude other European powers from sharing
in Egyptian control. England's road to India
must be retained by keeping up her maratime
supremacy.
