The wars and Debts of Europe.

ers in Berliu This is not au isolated fact
1t is quite probable that millions of the
French debt, incurred in the last Franco.
Prussian war are held 10 LpndJn, Beilin,
held extensively by every nationality in the
world. Austrian bonds of the national debt
of the dual empire are owned widely outside
Austria and Hungary.
The thought that strikes one is how that
in the almost inextrcabe confusion of
European politics, with the p. ssible obltera-
tiOn of certain continel til nations i the near |
future there can be found purchasers TO the |
extensive degree daily seen of the national
bonds OF a country whose individual stabili- |
ty is really historical question
Though this remark would apply in illus.
tration directly to such country as Turkey
it does not need excessively close investiga-
tion to perceive its application TO even the
German Buud.
AS to homogencity, which, outside of the
cruder argument of national declepitude, is
~ that affects the perpetuaton Of a ma.
tionality, Germany has the weakest histori-
cal solidarity in Europe. France is com.
pact State of centuries of homogeneous
growth, Russia is the same. These peoples
are one in themselves united in tradition and
social and religious customs
The bonds that keep the German Bund to-
gether may be burst tomorrow at the death
of the German Emperor Baden. Bavaria,
Saxony, Wirtemberg fud Bismarcks iron
rule oppressive. Tie question is, were the
German Empire srul ted at Emperor Will
helms death AID the picture seen of all these
little Kingdoms and League Cities lesumiug
the independence which they loved so well,
and which is their history for centuries be-
fore imperial Prussia was little else than an
obscure margIavate, who would he res pou.
ibe for the German imperial loan for mill
tary purposes which Bismarck is fighting so
hard for to- day in the Reichstag, endorsed
by the enoLogenaian, VI Motke, in eloquent
appeals to German imperial ambition
Would Prussia pay the debt?
This is at least certain that She won not
be moially liable for it.
Who would assume Turkeys dcbs sup.
posi- & the Sex Man disappeared fr M the
European field Yet what are her assets at
the present moment?
II Russia occupied Coustantinople to-mor.
row Turkish bond cou not be tloated in
the European market. Her suzsIanity
rights in the Suez Canal aie worthless. The
property dc facto has already been realizeC
upon or "~ateicd'' To iull capacity and il
owned outright by England and F,auee
If Austria should disappear from the ma,

probable, for her strongest political division
