There seems to be little doubt
that the new Emperor of Germany
is going to pursue the policy of his
grandfather in keeping on good
terms with Russia. His %utterances
to this effect are supported by his
proposed visit to st. Petersburg, and
should a marriage be brought about
between his sister and the Care
witch, the friendly disposition of the
two great empires would be still
further signalized. In this event
the purpose of Prince Bismarck in
opposing the Battenberg marital
project of the late EmperOr's brief
reign will become very manifest.
The primary object Of this more
intimate union with Russia would
doubtless be utterly to destroy the
hope of France to combine with that
power against Germany, thus dis
tracing the latter'S military strength
by putting her between two fires.
Once assured that France could find
no ally anywhere, Germany might
be tranquil ver her future. To
secure this, however, Prince Bis
marck might have to make some
concessions to Russia, and should
these concessions be in the Balkans
they would necessarily excite the
discomfort of Austria, Italy, and
England. The diplomatic problem
is a complicated one, but the prompt
steps taken by Emperor William
II. indicate that the German
Chancellor has fully determined on
asolution ofit.-N 7. Times, Ii july.
