Sir Wilfred Lawson called stteptioo
to the toroible interference With afairs
OF q foreign country. snd asked gov
eminent what was the object of the
naval demonstration which, no said,
II net sham, Was the first sIep to-
wards war.
Harrington replied that Govern-
ment earnestly hoped no necessity
for coercion would arise. Their object
was to render the exintence OF
Turkish government possible by the
settlement of difficulties which now
threatened it. The assemblsge OF the
fleets of allied powers with whom
government is acting in perfect con-
cert, proved that Europe was deter
mined that not all its decisions should
be evsded. Tue attemps TO draw q
more specific declaration fIom govern
ment would rather tend to- lead to the
necessity for GEORGIAN. Sir Charles
Dixie, under foreign secretary, stated
that arrangements between the powers
we're not quite complete but the
admirals had received the same
instruction and it wac arranged
that Senior Admiral Seymour
should consult the other admirals on
political questions only. The
government had every reason to
believe that the attempts t.
settle the Montenegrin question
would be successful; that the Dulcigno
arrangement would be executed in a
very short time. and that 10 coercion
would be necessary.
