Moscow, September 24.-The grand ques'
ton which remains unanswered in this iso-
lated court is the date of the coronation.
To, day it is fixed upon only to be deferred
again tomorrow, thanks to the fears OF the
Empress, who, brave one moment, is the
reverse few hours afterward. Things are
in such an undecided state that Ican safely
affirm, without the slightest fear OF being
contradicted, that up to this very day the
Minister OF the Interior is completely igno'
rant OF the date of the coronation. How
ever, all the preparatory orders are oelng
executed.
New vestments for the Popes have been
sent from the principal depot in st. Peters.
burg. had occasion to see the Empress
train the other day. 1t is composed OF
cloth of silver, likewise embroidered with
silver. 1t can scarcely be called train ex'
actly, as it covers also part OF the dress In
front from the waist to the knees, and IS
six wards long at the back. This train is so
ayfully heavy, with lis own material, be-
sides the massive embroidery, its white
satin border and it's ermine border, that SIX
pages are to follow the Empress for the
purpose of carrying it, as she, being very
fraif and delicate, would be unable to JOIN
the cortege which she is called upon to
grace as its head. The ambassadors, tired
of waiting for the coronation, which IS con-
stantly being put of, have nearly all ao:
sented themselves, with the exception oil
the English and German Ambassadors,
who, under the present state OF affairs In
Egypt, probably think that If one OF them
remains that the other had better stop also.
The Egyptian Question.
The Russian government is busy with
the Egyptian question, without, however,
departing from the policy which II mas no
difficulty in maintaining after the declara-
tion England has made. In accord with
the other European powers, it has allowed
England to achieve complete victory,
having taken into serious consideration the
promise Of the English government to sub
nit the final decision OF the destiny oil
Egypt to the conference of Constantinople.
Whatever happens, Russia is firmly de-
cided upon this point, and to remind Eng
land of her promise by every possiDle
means, "even by war" 1t IS not Tor dlpio-
matists, no matter how convinced they be
of the truth Of this, TO speak out so openly,
but it is the duty of the journalist to en-
tighten the public by speaking the truth.
| State this as a positive fact, although Rus
sia is making no preparations for war. She
has no need to make any in Asia, where
she is always ready. All She has to do is
to send a telegram to the new Governor
General OF Turkestan, the celebrated Gen,
eral TChernaieff, the same who conquered
it, and who leaves shortly furnished with
all the necessary instructions. The Gov
ernor General of the Caucases is also ad-
vsed as to the situation OF affairs.

that the Car started on his return to st.
