ENGLAND'S COMMERCE WITH AMERICA


p0rtance by the authorized announcement
that be intends to review Lord Salisbury's
foreign policy and declare what his own
will be if he should again be placed in
power. The Federation proceedings are not
likely to astonish the world with any
startling variation from the cut and dried
programme, hut if expectation proves cor
rect Mr. Gladstone viii make the meeting
memorable by statement of foreign policy
committing the Liberals to a line of action
directly opposed to that Of Lord Salisbury.
Mr. Morley has already declared that
the next Gladstone administration will ac-
complish the evacuation of Egypt with the
lriefest possible delay. Letters from Mr..
Gladstone to the Servian politician, Yove-
movitch, which will appear in to-morrow's
issue Of The Speaker, are likely to cause
A SENSATION IN EUROPE,
as hey show he widest possible divergence
between the present Liberal and the Con.
servativc policy Mr. Gladstone advocates
the closest harmony among the Balkan
States. repudiates Lord Salisbury's diplo.
macy as tending toward the supremacy Of
Bulgaria over the other States and adds
that he feels warmly with the lately sub.
iected populations Of Southwestern Europe.
rs The last phrase can only apply to Aus
rria'S taking possession of Bosnia and
herzegovina the letter is interpreted to
mean that Mr.. Gladstone desires to oust the
Austrians from Bosnia and TO support the
formation of a federation of the Balkan
states.
The Gladstone Liberals continue to ar
range for the future on the supposed GER
rainty CT their being in power by the
autumn of 1892 The Conservatives now
talk of postponing the general elections
until the remotest legal period, which will
he April, 1893. in order to enable the Gov
erHment TO get the Irish local government
in working order.
ENGLAND DISTRUSTS CHINA
The communications from the Pekin Gov
eminent offering compensation to foreigners
who have suffered in the recent riots in
China, with the strongest assurances of
future protection, are received with disQust
II the Foreign Office here.
Hsu Ching Chang, the Chinese Ambassa-
dor to the European courts, has recently
been in st. Petersburg, where he succeeded
IN inducing the Russian Government to
withdraw from the joint action projected by
tie powers. He arrived in Berlin to-day
with the view of trying to influence Chan
cellor Won Caprivi, but il is certain he will
n0J alter the determination of the German
Government 10 cooperate with the British
ID taking decisive measures.
The Pekin note, as given TO the papers,
fails to indicate the real character of the ap-
lteal made by Hsu Ching Chang to the Euro
pean Governments. lie has urged that the
Imperial Government was entirely honest
in desiring TO suppress the disorders and
seeking time to deal with the anti-foreign
movement, and that precipitate action on
me part OF the powers would defeat their
object and bring China into anarchy.
TUE. DANGER TO THE DYNASTY.
His communication distinctly suggests the
probability Of such a potent political up
Laaval Ia China as might overthrow the
Nluchu dynasty. The panicky feeling ex-
i-rinE in Pelin is made known here by ur-
gent telegrams sent throughout the Chinese
Em5assy imploring Lord Salisbury to in
ztruct Sir J Ohm Nalsham, the British Min
lister 10 China, TO adopt more friendly at
rirule
Minister Walsham advises the Foreign
Office that persistent diplomatic pressure,
ggubined with a national demonstration at
certain treaty ports, will be the only effec-
.-ve means 70 protect European residents
from ourages. He complains that the pro-
mitigation Of the Emperor's edict against
AtilshN hl loFtlLlCrS mas DeeD unnecessarily
DELAYED. He asks the officials to use the
-rIagraph in publishing the edict, but the
officials refused, saving that there was no
precedent for doing so, and that the edict
mus. be distributed bv the ordinary cOur-
Iers. The minister also complains of the un-
certainty of the punishment of the real lead
trs of the outrage.
IfLord Salisbury supports Minister Walls

vene to protect Europeans, leaving the Tar

Of the chaotic state Of the present troubles
rae Foreign Office here hopes that the ulti-

ENGLISH TRADE WITH AMERICA.
Economic experts agree that the net ad-

grain has not exceeded 800, 900. O0O of

HANGED and viii lead to an increase of
bullion shipments. Mr. Giffen's recent es-
innate that &lo,OO0,O00 iu gold would be
the limit OF the export TO New York, is not
disputed, but even this maximum is ex-
recied to entail an increase in the Bank of
England rate to or per cent.
