Italian Ministerial crisis Although the
Triple Alliance treaty was last year pro-
longed until 1897, it is all important that
the successor of the Marquis di Rudini
should be man who will give genuine, not
merely verbal, adhesion to the treaty.
No Italian statesman of whatever party
would venture, on assuming power, to re-
pudiate the treaty. King Humbert person.

prior to the treaty, not to sanction the e1-

Yet the present crisis is directly due to
the Marquis di Rudini's financial proposals.
which involved the war budget, any dirl-
mutton of which implies a decrease in

The Dread of I;aIy's Financial Weakness.
The North German Gazette SAYS Signor
Gioiitti would entirely support the Crispi
and hi Rudini policy, and would not allow
any reduction in the war budget or any
diminution in the military forces. Despite
this assurance, fears undoubtedly affect off,
cial circles here that Italy's economic weak

as an ally.
The crisis is likely to delay the arrange
ments for the meeting between Emperor
William and King Humbert. The Marquis
di Eudini was 10 accompany King Hum

Count TaverEa, had a preliminary mission
TO state regarding what effective
army Italy is now able to place
1T the disposal of the allies This
highly practical question, so long un-
seriled. appeared to be on the point of de-
cisiou: 50. therefore, the Marquis di Ru-

The Gar Positively Coming TO Potsdam.
Tie A9ganeiae Reich Correspondent, which
sometimes gets direct tips from the Rus
s5au Finance Ministry, announces positive
~ that The Gar is coming to Potsdam. II
tlis report is true, his visit must necessa-
r.lv he a brief one Of courtesy, as the En-
per0r's plans, which are fixed for months
10 come, do not include a visit from the
Gar.
Il is certain that attempts continue to be

though the efforts of Count Won Schouvalof,
tie Russian Ambassador to Germany, in the
direction OF negotiating a commercial
treaty, have been balked by the st. Peters
burg opposition. Even a courtesy visit
from the Gar would be welcome as tending
To a reconciliation. In the meantime, the
aati-Geruan party prevails in Russia.
The repression of the German element in
the Baltic provinces is more severe than
ever. The use OF the Russian language has
been made compulsory in the schools of
Courland, which have hitherto been exempt
from that obligation. The students clubs at
rh" Dorpat University, which are made up
largely OF Germans, have been placed under
the ban.

scholarships are sent to Dorpat with the

lnarican Commissions are Efficient.
An incident has just occurred that proves
growing dread here of the efficiency of the
American Immigration Commission. Sol

the nited States sent to his wife, who re-

German authorities refused to permit her to

Blaine, the American Secretary of State.

american Minister here, to do
what he could in the case, although Gun

A a result OF the informal negotiations the
German authorities refused to allow her to
