European Gossip.

New YoIK, Aug. IL. - A London
cable to the Times says; The Car is
going to Berlin after all, arriving few
days after the Emperor OF Austria has de
parted Each OF these great monarchs will
be accompanied by their heir apparent and
by responsible ministers as well.
Their failure TO raise a Joint meeting at
Berlin indicates ,but Europe's fever sore
Is still open, but the fact that tho C1r
visits Berlin a, all is enough 10 strengthen
every bourse on the continent.
1t seems tolcrably clear now that there
is to be no war this year, The historically
troublesome island OF Crete continues to be
tho solitary point OF genuine anxiety.
Once or twice during the week II has
seemed probable that armed Intervention
Of the powers must cnsue, and the si,ua-
tiou is still one which may easily set Eur.
opo by the ears
Just now the natter Ia involved In u
rather perplcxinR diplomatic fog. Greece
has asked the powers to Intervene and
England has Joined the triple alliance In
refusing TO adml, that there was any
ground for such action. This is taken to
nican that Russia and France are cpging
Greece on and II II be true that these two
latter powers have succeeded In urging
Greece 10 their side tho eastern question
will become morc dangerous than ever.
There Is no apprehension OF an lmmo
dia,c crisis, however All these semi orr.
entail people have M indefinite capacity
for making their rows stretch out over
lnpscs OF time, and 80 Western Europe
feels FREQ to go yachting and shooting with
