England will force the Straits when
she shall have satisfied herself that
this violation of treaties will meet
with no material opposition from the
Sultan or the Powers. And then, if
the English flag bursts into the Black
Sea-, if Turkey, by the force of
circumstances, becomes the ally of
England, is it not patent that before
a month shall have expired, Bulgaria,
Eastern RoumeIia, and Macedonia
would break out into instruction,
while Austria would advance to
Salonica7 The political and COM
mercial worlds have a right, then, to
show themselves apprehensive. The
first peal Of artillery between the
Afghans and Russians on the banks
Of the Kushk would be the commence
ment of a general conAagration in
which all Europe risks embodiment,
from the Baltic to the Straits OF
Gibraltar"
This extract is entirely in keeping
with the views expressed by the
moderate papers here, which argue
from the standpoint of general interest,
unlike the virulent Anglophobists Of
the extreme parties, who would be
but too glad to see England dragged
into a costly and disastrous war. All
the kilograms published here this
evening by the official agency repre-
sent the situation as greatly improved,
and hopes are held GU OF the MAIN
tenance of peace. Two evening
papers, however, the Liberte and
National, keenly criticise the contra
dictory statements az to the advance
on Meruchek, which were made in
the Houses of Parliament.
The FraneGis, referring to the fact
that the principal maritime companies
in EngIan are now insuring cargoe"
at war premiums, points out for the
serious consideration of islanders who
draw three ffths of their provisions
from abroad, that all This might be
obviated by a submarine tunnel con.
Meeting England with the Continent.
This suggestion may find favour with
the advocates of The Channel Tunnel,
but it is doubtful whether, notwilll-
standing its plausibility, it will have
any weight in altering the views Of
the military men in England, who
have pronounced against the project
in a decided manner,-Tbid.

Government have taken no final deci-
sion as to the military mission in
question. They should, however,
bear in mind that every days delay
increases the possibility of the Shah
contracting other obligations, and
there are few things that would tend
more materially to increase the diff
culties of a campaign in Central Asia
than hostility on the part Of Persia.

THE FRENCH PRESS ON THE
SITUATION.

ing is prevalent to-day with reference
to the Afghan difficulty. The reason
most generally assigned for this
change is the denial of the report hat
the Russians ha advanced to Meru-
chak but this mere contradiction is not
enough to account for the sudden
alteration of opinion %perceptibIe in
those who are in the best position to
be well informed. [ find that the
idea is again gaining ground that the
solution OF the difficulty may be ex-
pected to come from Berlin, and
although | am not cognizant Of any
facts that would justify this expecta-
ton, it is quite possible that the
certainty of any war between England
and Russia spreading to Europe may
aver at the last moment induce Prince
o Bismarck to pause before he let's
slip the dogs Of war. Weak though
the English Cabinet has recently
shown itself to be in the management
of Continental questions, no Ministry
could possibly permit q war for the
prosecution of which the whole force
of the nation would be required to be
localised in such a way as to cripple
our to the uttermoSt. 1t is
significant that Frenchmen are begin
ming to realise that in the event of
war breaking out the FIST act of the
English would be to force the Darda-
neIles. The real opposition Of the
Turk is not believed in; as a French
diplomatist remarked to me to-day,
ut is possible that the Turks might
make a show of resistance in order to
keep up a sembIance of neutrality,
but il they fired at the English feet
they would take very good care not
to hit anything." The gradual spread
of a conlagration is beginning to be
feared even here and the very per-
sons who a week ago talked as though
they would not be diSinclined to see a
slap on the face administered to Eng
land, now shake their heads gravely
in anticipation of the serious conSe-
quences that might arise, and from
which 10 European State would be
entirely exempt.
Peace is thus not yet despaired of,
despite the gigantic preparations for
war which are being made both by
Russia and England, and the recent
statement Of Mr.. Gladstone. The
French papers are still inclined to
hope great things from the possible
mediation of some Power; and it is
curious that the Gambettist Paris,
which only recently Numbered with
such ~viruIence against Prince Won
Bismarck, should now regard him as
the virtual arbiter of the destinies Of
Europe. The Paris also suggests
that everybody should join in an
attempt to preserve Europe from the
inevitable complications of an Anglo
Russian war. Commenting on the
probability of an outbreak of hostili-
ties, the Conservative McniteMr Uni
Uersel says:
People know England but badly
who imagine that she will bow to the
moral authority Of the Sultan when

not deemed more hopeful, though ru-
mours of q more favourable character
had a quoting influence on the Bourse
to-day and affect the one Of to-night's
press.
Thus the NorddemtSche says that
so-day's kilograms clearly demonstrate
how little real cause there is for ankle
ty. This is paIpably carrying optim-
ism rather far, at a moment when
Russia is arming with the utmost
energy. / hear that troops are being
SEN from Odessa daily, nay, almost
hourly, to Batoum and Po,i. Their
destination is unknown, but it is not
difficult to conclude that while a por-
ton is intended for Central Asia, ano-
Their will be utilised for a movement
on Constantinople. [ can confirm
the statement hat Russia contem-
plates making no advance through
Europe, for reasons 1 have already
given. But if England despatch a
feet through the Dardanelles, with or
without Turkeys consent, Russia will
consider herself justified in attempting
to occupy Constantinople. In the
first eventuality Russia will attack
Turkey as her enemy !; in the second,
she will try to occupy Constantine.
pie under the plea that she must main.
tain the integrity of the Ottoman En-
pire. Surely with such a prospect
before it the Porte can only adopt
one attitude, siding honestly with
England if war break out. further
hear that if the British feet pass
through the Bosphorus the four Rus
sian warships in the Black Sea will
attempt TO bar their road. There
seems little doubt that the Black Sea
coasts will be the scene Of the heavi-
est conflict, if hostiIities be not avert

several mornings the mercury wna

tonsid cradle snow on the earth when
the month commenced, and there were
several snow storms during the month.
The snow was very deep from Ohio all

BEkNE, Feb. q The police made a
descent early this moruirg on the
abodes Of suspected Anarchists. Whole.
sale arrests were made, many persous
being taken from led. IN this city
twenty-three well known Anarchists
Were taken into custody
The raid was not due simply to
the anti Socialist legislation undertaken
within tho past few days. but was
rather rrtcipiiated by the fact that the
Federal Council had received positive
information Of desperate dynamite
conspiracy to destroy the Federal
palace
The plot was prepared with perfect
mas cry Of every eleiuent likely to con
tribute 10 its success, and every minute
detail WAS arranged and provided for
with cold blooded preci ion.
Tw-nty persons have already been
taken INTO custody. Among the num-
Der are several women. The arrests
were made not only in this city, but
also at Zurich, Saint Gall and other
centres. More arrests will doubtless
