MILAN Or SERVIA
Again Said to be Anxious to Join
Issues With Russia.

POWER OF THE RADICALS.

Cablegrams.
LONDON, Dec. 99--Rumors are again cur
rent that King Milan of Servia is trying to
form an alliance with Russia, 1t is said
that he is dismayed at the increasing power
Of the Radicals and their consequent ass'lmp-
ton of dictation regarding the new constitu-
ton and his own politics, and he hopes that
by apparently acquiescing in their demands
but secretly obtaining aid from Russia to de-
feat his opponents.
Should any such alliance be made Milan
would doubtless be required to accord GER
tain privileges and rank to Queen Natalie,
from whom he divorced eimself in so perem-
tory manner. Politicians who are posted
in the Balkan question think it not at all i'm
probable that the report is true, and believe
that Russia would gladly find way TO help
Milan openly if the conditions of the Berlin
treaty would permit. And if the treaty de-
MED Russia this privilege, then she might be
able to quietly effect an arrangement with
Austria for this purpose, with the ultimate
object of dividing with Austria King Milan's
dominions. They who hold this opinion
point to the fast accruing evidence of Aus
tria's disatfection towards her ally, Germany
and the triple alliance
The recent elevation to high army rank of
Count Andrassy and Baron Beck, they say,
is not pleasing to Germany, who dislikes
both these men, especially the latter EN-
peror' Francis Joseph has, in many ways
shown that he is Independent Of Germany,
and many believe that the triple alliance will
not be lasting.

amendment that Senator SpooBer predicted

not in favor OF a tariff bin at all as an

would go further than any other step toward
smashing the solid south.
The great task which Harrison has set be-

to get the tariff lost sight of IN the ado about

that Gen. Harrison let fall the actual truth
