BERLIN, July 1.-THE papers of this city
overflow with accounts of the popular tri-
Gmph of Emperor William in London. The
semi-cf1icial papers adopt a guarded tone
and avoid all reference to an alliance with
England as an accomplished fact. These
papers simply re-echo the Emperor's speech
at Guildhall. The North German Gazette
remarks that the Emperor's utterances
coincide completely with the views of the
industrious and energetic people of Great
Britain, who favor the maintenance of
peace. The independent papers criticize
the Emper3r's reception as emphasizing the
friendly sentiments of England toward Ger
many and toward the Emperor, as a rela-
tive of the royal family, without being a
y popular Endorsement of Lord Salisbury's
policy. The Freisinnige Zeitung holds that
the general character Of the celebrations in
honor of the Emperor. and especially those
of the court and Government, accordingly
must be taken as an open declaration of
Engl and's adhesion to the Dreibund. Arti-
cles in the Russian and French press, illus
trating the intensity of the irritation felt in
largely quoted.
FRANCO -RU sSIAN ALLIANCE.
a startling report, which has caused con-
siderable talk in diplomatic circles recently,
has been circulated here. 1t is 10 the effect
that NJ. Ribot, the French Minister of For
eign Affairs, approached the Russian Gov
eminent On the subject of coalition
against England, Offering to co = operate
with Russia In the seizure of CONSTANT
nople and the formation of q new Turkish
State in Asia, embracing Egypt, under
Franco Russian protection. Apart from the
question Of the probability of its truth, the
report has value as indicating the tendency
of Lord Salsbury's dreibund policy. No
sbody believes that the French and Russian
Governments will accept Lord Salisbury's
verbal assurances of friendliness in the face
of England's practical adhesion to their
enemies.
THE EVACUATION OF EGYPT.
The game of diplomacy against England's
retention OF Egypt has already been opened.
According 10 the Cologne Gazette the Sui
tan, acting under the promptings OF the
Ere nch and the Russian Ministers, recently
held council at which it was proposed that
the Porte should call a conference Of the
European powers to consider the question
of eyacuating Egypt. A telegram received
here from Constantinople with reference to
the diplomatic movements hustiie TO En-
gland, state that the Porte has invited the
French Government 10 resume the initiative
in the movement against English occu-
patton of Egypt.
TROUBLE AMONG SOCIALISTS.
Internal feuds among the Socialists are
increasing in intensity, and the meetings
held in the past week mark the stage of
open and declared rupture between the
young and old sections OF the party. Ac-
cording to the decision recently rendered
by the Supreme Court the Socialists are as
much entitled TO the privilege of displaying
their red flag in public professions as are
the members Of any other political body
carrying their banners. The case arose
from the seizure Of the Socialist flag at the
time of the demonstration made by Social
lists in Anhalt last March.
