More About Turkish Reform.
London, Oct. H.-Sir Michael Hicks
Beach, speaking at Darlington last
night. declared that the actual position
of the powers with regard to the Eastern
question was that Russia, Austria and
Germany were determined, with a view
to preserving European peace, to MAIN
tain the status quo in Turkey. That
had been England's traditional policy,
he said, any departure of which would
meet with active resistance by the pow
ers. At the same time, absolute inactiou
was more dangerous to the peace OF
Europe than would be united interfer-
ence by the powers to compel Turkish
reform. England's present policy. the
chancellor affirmed. was to secure a con-
cert of the powers to insist upon reform.
He asserted most emphatically that the
government did not desire to act alone.
or to obtain any special advantage for
England.
