Which VIII Doubtless Recompense Mr.
Bsyard for the Ignomlny of a Recall.


London, Dec. ia dispatch TO the
Standard from Washington asserts
that Ambassador Bayard's speech at
the dinner at the Actors Benevolent
fund on Wednesday evening which was
reported in the cable dispatches of the
Associated Press on Wednesday, has
offended both President Cleveland and
Secretary Olney, and is likely TO be the
ostensible cause OF his recall. All the
newspapers here continue TO print long
editorials based upon what they call
the apparent subsistence of the lingo
fever in America, and upon the cool
ness displayed in the senate over the
discussion Of the matter.
The Standard Conservative en-
braces the opportunity 10 sound the
praises Of the second chamber as a nee
essary constitutional check, without
which the tumultuous vote of the house
of representatives might place the exc
cutiVe in position from which an hon
oraole and pacific retreat would have
been difficult.

RUSSIA WOULD STEP IN.
India Would be Occupied ard France
Wouldn't Care.

New York, Dec. ia dispatch to the
World from London says: The sill
ence Of Russia is alone ominous. In
case of war between England and the
United States it is not to be doubted
that Russia would seize the occasion
for a long-delayed advance to the
Mediterranean and across the recent
ly established line separating her from
India. Whether England in that
event could rely on armed aid from any
European power is doubtful, certainly
not from France. With Russia in
arms against England, not even her
joint interest in the West Indies would
prevail against her hatred of England,
to. say nothing of her political alliance
with Russia
