will prove an important date the history of the
Eastern crisis at is understood" says the Times
"that the first meeting of the informal conference
of Ambassadors will take place within the next
few hours at ConstantinOple, while at Nissa, the
Servian Skuptschina will be opened by King Milan.

Gladstone manifesto, be turns around and declares
that unless his three favorite nostrums are taken
up he will not join any liberal Government This
is regarded as serious tactical blunder before
the enemy and has created great disgust even
among Chamberlain's friends. That so Young a
politician should presume to dictate terms in this
fashion TO and so openly bid for Gladstones shoes
Is quite contrary TO all English political traditions
Even the Birmingham Post deserts him. OF
Chanberlaln's three nostrums, free primary edu
