| BERLIN, June 8.-The delay in the
transmission from Washington of the
assent to the Samoan treaty has orig
mated rumors that Blaine desired re-
vision of several points. Inquiries at the
Foreign Office and the English Embassy
elicit the information that nothing has
occurred that is likely to retard the ex-
change of signatures or requiring further
reference to the commission in plenary
conference. Blaine has been in COM
munication with Phelps regarding verbal
amendments to the protocols which
we're submitted to Count Herbert and
sir Edward Malet, and accepted without
comment.
The official irritation over Rlaine's
cautious scrutiny of the protocols is sbat-
r ing with a growing recognition Of the
, Justice and value of the American plans
= upon the final and decisive settlement OF
the Samoan question.
The impatience of the foreign Office to
close the matter has not FASTENED the
] action of Lord Salisbury any more than
r it has that of Blaine. The English Com"
f missoners do not attach the slightest
l importance to the dilatory procedure OF
their foreign Office. AS soon as the
Washington government cables "Sgn,"
, Lord salisbury's assent will be ready.
n From the nature of the latest commu-
i nication to the American Commission, it
!. is expected that the conference will meet
Wadp as1ou for tho Loot tiyroo RlaipR
. . has asked concerning the arrangements
!. for the return of Mslietoa. 1t is settled
that the electoral decision of the natives
will be taken some tina after Malietoa ia
reinstated.
RUSSIA GETS UGLY.
!. Bismark's period of repose at Schon-
hansen was probably cut short by adj
II vices from st. Petersburg, showing re-
newal of the openly hostile policy OF the
n Gear. The Emperor's programme for his
l. visit to England, fer the reception OF the
Emperor Francis Joseph, and other
a plans, remain uncertain through the
b Cars tacit refusal to settle the prelimi-
nares for the projected interview with
q the Emperor William. Bismarck sent to
l. st. Petersburg asking the appointment OF
a date and place for the meeting OF the
10 Emperor. The Gar declined to appoint
l. date further than that, on returning
from Copenhagen, he might meet the
r Emperor William at Keil.
This tame response from Russia rem
n ders the sending of a formal invitation
r from Berlin doubtful. Semi-oficial
newspapers say that the cordial personal
70 relations betwee the Gar and the
n Emperor William are unchanged, but
they ignore the fact of the renewal of the
strained relations of the Berlin and
q Vienna Governments toward Russia.
Apart from the Cars ominous toast to
Prince Nicholas of Montenegro, and his
sending of Prince Nicholas on q special
a mission to Paris, followed by the Grand
q Duke George, who will sail on warship
4 from Cronstadt for Havre, and thence
proceed to Paris, there are signs of
activity rising in response to activities on
S the part of the Triple Alliance. Prince
2 George, the Cars favorite son, and
;. probably his successor, in view of the
!. weak brain and general debility of ths
!. Czarewitch, begins tour of the world,
starting from Paris, where his presence
e is intended to mark the Czar's adhesion
3 to the French alliance. 1t is denied that
: the Prince of Montenegro is entrusted
with mission, but it is admitted that he
will attend the conference of Pan-Slavists
and Servians, at which his sen-in law,
Prince Karageorgevics, will be declared
s t1e legalized claimant to the Servian
l. throne with the re establishment of the
: old Servian Empire, including Bosnia
and Herzegovina.
THE GEAR PAN-SLAvIST.
9 The Cologne Gazette declares that the
2 Gar is definitely commit ed to a Pan
Slavist policy, involving critical develop
;. ments which are bound to have violent
+ end.
DIR. Peters expedition hes collapsed,
: owing to an epidemic among the Somslis.
j. The expedition has disbanded and the
munitions have been reshipped to Cor
many.
: There is no abatement in the general
strike movement. The masons and car
penters of Berlin are steadfast in their
demand, and are confident OF final vic
tory. The Votksblatt announces the COM
bined action among the workmen on the
, royal estates, the coachmen, stablemen
. and gardeners for an increased payment.
The Emperor has already ordered the
wages of married men to be raised. The
police are more Extensively active to sup
: press workmen's meetings everywhere.
The conservative journals bitterly COM
ment upon the i'm perial protection to the
workmen. They declare that it is mis-
placed, and that the workmen are be-
coming corrupted by socialism and friends
OF France.
The Kreus Zeitung announces that So
cialist members of the Reichstag favor
organizing visits of workmen's delegates
to Paris, and urges the government to
suppress their arrangements.
The dispute of the German socialists
with France is settled The Paris Con-
gress is likely to have a large German
representation.
