THEY ARE AFRAID.
England Distressed Over the Influence
OF Yankees i'm South America.

LONDON. Oct 19.-The continued laments.
tions in the English press over the danger 10
British trade with South America give point
| to the exceptional jealousy of the United
States which marks British traders The Ger.
mans have repeatedly cut into English COM
merce in South America, but the rivalry has
been accepted philosophically and no clamors
about German greed have awakened the public
indignation. Ii Is only natural that her mer-
chants should wish to put of as long as possible
the evil day when the western hemisp phsrs
shall cease to be simply producer of raw ma
terial and consumer OF European manufactures.
But their efforts will hardly be aided by their
endeavors to portray American statesmen 20
modern Machiayellis with touch OF Bismarck
in their composition and the United States a.
doing its utmost to blockade South American
ports against European commerce, Spain. Italy
and France, the inhabitants of which would
cheerfully cut one another's throats. London
papers pour forth daily warnings of the danger
in the ''ascendency of the Latin race" in South
America through the Vaccinations of the
northern republic. Spain particularly is i'm
pressed with the danger which threatens
Cuba, and additional troops to be sent ct
once TO the lever faithful isle, q plausible
method Of increasing Sagastas influence there.
oUINTUPLE ALLIANCE.
According to the wiseacres there is to be Q
quin.uple alliance for the preservation Of
peace in Europe, England being already in 40
cord with the old firm and Turkey being all
ready to come in as junior partner, as is indi-
Gated by her gorgeous preparations to greet
the young German emperor, whom the faith
full are enjoined TO hail a bulwark against
the dreaded car. That Russia is not free from
misgivings on this point may be concluded
from the tone OF the Russian press in appealing
to religious and race hatreds. What, they ask,
can be expected of a ruler who afiliates with
the oppressor OF the Cretan and Armenian
Christians2
POSSIBLE MosLEM OUTBREAK.
There is a chance for another charming com.
plication in southeastern affairs. The ''ouu'
in Turkey. rs elsewhere, constitute q majority
of the patriots who are anxious TO serve their
country for reconsideration, only by more bitter
and more desperate means. Ii is certain that
they have received some money and have been
promised more, from a source easily conjec-
tured, to raise the standard of revolt in favor
of the deposed Sultan Murad. who is conveu-
iently found to have recovered his sanity The
proposed plan is to appeal, supported by many
sheiks in the interior to the never extinct IA
naticism Of the masses against the impious
usurper who allows the army TO 60 unpaid,
while squandering millions upon the reception
Of Christian monarch, who appoints unbe.
LEVERS to important Offices and scandaiously
neglects the propagation Of the true faith.
