RUSSIA MUST Fight.
THE AUSTRO-GERMAN TREATY
MERELY A BLIND.
Prince Bismarck Determined to
Draw Russia Into an In
mediate Action.
The French Russian Alliance Sure to Cause
Declaration Of War by The
Central Powers.
In Keeping With His Character, it is
Said That Alexander will not
Give an Inch.

Copyrighted 1855, by New York Associated Press)
BERLIN, Feb. Awhile the semi-official
press affects to regard the publication of
the Austro-German treaty as having d
pacific intent, official and diplomatic cir
cles know that its real aim is to force the
car to an immediate war or compel him
to submit to the terms for permanent
peace dictated by the allies. Tire sub
stance of the treaty had long been known
to both the Russian and French govern
menUs. At the time Of its inception
at the conference between Prince Bis
marck and Count Andrassy at Gastein in
August, in 1879, confidential disclosures
stating the character of the compact were
made by Prince Bismarck to the car as an
inducement to break OFF negotiations for a
Russo-French alliance. The day after the
treaty was signed, Prince Bismarck made
personal communication of the fact to
both the French and Russian ambassadors,
Withholding only the exact terms of the
treaty The publication reveals nothing to
any European government. Before dis
closing it to the people the step was anX-
iously discussed by Prince Bismarck.
Count Kalnolly and Herr Won Tisza The
emperor presiding, consented to
the publication of the treaty only
last week upon urgent representation
from Prince Bismarck that the time was
opDortune. its appearance at the present
iuncture recalls the utterance Of Prince
Bismarck when he was reproached in
the Teichstag for refusing to submit to
that body certain diplomatic correspon-
dence. Once government determines to
publish important documents, he said,
matters should have gone so far that
nothing but war is likely to be the out
come of the situation. BY the light Of
this memorable statement the immense
significance of the publication OF the
treaty at the present crisis will be SEEN
1t is the step which precedes an ultima
tum. II Russia continues to arm
and press forward masses Of troops,
menacng the strategic points on the
frontiers and if the pending negotiations
for an offensive and defensive alliance
with France should succeed, the central
powers Will not wait the convenience of
the French and Russian governments to
declare war The crisis. therefore, nears
d climax Prince Bismarck, in his speech
in the reichstag on Monday may place q
peaceful Interpretation upon the motives
of the publication of the treaty. but
nothing he can say is expected to lessen
the strain of the situation. The car must
give practical assurances OF peace or abide
by an early war. and Judging by ali that is
known Of his character and the ministerial
influences now dominating him the car
will not yield.

Today the same road announces further
cut Of one-half cent on first class and 3
cents on second class freight to Missouri

and Minneapolis The Northwestern peo-
pie declare they are in the fight to stay
As yet no steps have been taken to stop
the rate cutting. Chairman Midgeley. of

POLITICAL
The Net Results of Protective Tariff to
Wage Farmers.

New YORK, Feb. 4.-The Dry Goods
Der, who has been identified for years with
the wholesale grocery business of this city
on the net results of a protective tariff to
wage earners, says: Free trade between
the countries of the world would, in time,
either transfer many Of the manu-
factories of this country in which
the cost of labor enters large
ly into the cost of production to the
manufacturers of Europe, or it would re
duce the price of labor in this country to
the level of the price paid in Europe. The
free trader, however, claims that If we had
the freest interchange of products the cost
of living to the wage worker would enable
him to accept less rate of wages. and still
leave him greater profit thar under our
present protective tariff. 1t is conceded by
all, | believe, that our wage earners do re
ceive higher prices for labor than those
paid III any other country. We also believe
it TO be Il fact that ali the wage earners in
this country enjoy more OF the necessarieS
than do the wage carners of Europe that
as rule, our working population is better
fed. better clothed and better housed than
than the same class in any country. If
this be SO. then. the net pro!it of the
laborer must be greater in this country
than il Is IN Europe. and that is SO shown
by the fact that he not only enjoys more
comforts in this country, but is also able
to save more cash, as Is attested by the
large amount Of money he has accumu-
lated i'll our savings banks Another
significant fact which proves that the net
profit of labor is greater is the large immi-
grafton that has continued to swell our
population for so many years. Like mel-
chandize, labor always seeks the best
h, h . Il, IL
laborer cannot Obtain better net results
in this country than the old world. then
immigration to this country will almost
