THE WAR LORD.
The Kaiser Cumming with The Gar.

Berlin, July 1o-The main business of
serious import to be transacted during
Emperor Williams visit to the Gar, the
correspondent of the Associated Press
here learns, will be the formulation of a
distinct understanding between Russia
and Germany in regard to frankly anti
British policy in the Orient, especially
in connection with Japan and China,
and, in the event of possible complica-
tions arising from the critical situation
in India, Emperor William will pledge
himself to Systematically support Russia
in that part of the world, q policy which
in the main is approved by Prince Hohen-
lobe, the imperial chancellor, and which
it Is hoped will further isolate Great
Britain Russia on her part, is to promise
the weight of her influence in favor of
Germany in the event of annexation plans
in Samoa and elsewhere maturing. The
Emperor hopes, notwithstanding the nat
ural jealousy of France growing out of
this programme, that an entente with the
French republic will in most cases be
also possible. 1t was owing to this out
spoken anti. British programme, the out
lines of which were sketched at the meet
ing between Emperor William and the
Gar at Breslau in 1896, that His Majesty
deemed it best to show great deal of
reserve in regard to Queen Victoria S
jubilee and the retiring attitude of the
German embassy in London during the
festival was due to the same cause. 1t
waa on this subject, too, that Emperor
William and Baron Marshall Won Bic

differed for some time and this is said to
have FASTENED the baron desire to retire.
On the occasion of the recent visit of
Prince Hohenlohe and Baron Won Bulow
to Prince Bismarck this matter was dis
cussed at some length and it is said that
the ex-chancellor heartily endorsed the pro-
gramme.
Further developments of the cabinet
crisis will be postponed until His Majes-
tvs return from ST. Petersburg. 1t is
probable Prince Hohenlohe will remain in
office until the fall at least.

published a scathing arraignment of EN-
peror William and his policy, condemning
his habit of NEEDING with everything and
saying that he thereby misses correct
survey Of the general situation.
Physically the Emperor is unusually
we'll. When he started from Lubec on his
northland trip, it was generally remarked
how healthy and sun burned he looked.
A Warning to the Sultan From a Russian
Source
St. Petersburg, July 10.-The Novoe
Vremya has published another outspolen
warning to Turkey in which it says:
"Unless the collective note of the powers
induces submission, the Powers will be
forced to resort to more impressive meas
ures than simple naval demonstra-
tion."
In conclusion, the Novoe saVremya re-
marks: ga final check of the negotia-
tions at Constantinople would prove the
necessity of having done with Turkey as
European state for evermore."
The Americas Cup.
London, July 10.-Mr. Charles Day
Rose, when questioned today by repre-
sentative of the Associated Press regard
ing the intimation Of the Pail Mall Ga
for the Americas cup if his new yacht
Aurora turned out to be representative
craft, said:
"There is nothing I would like better
than to challenge for the Americas cup.
When I contemplated so doing and real
izing that it might be misconstrued and
one must stand by ones friends, was
obliged to withdraw, which was unfortu-
nate. In regard to the Aurora, which first
appeared during Cowes week, challenging
for the Americas cup, have not given it
thought"
The Note of the Powers.
Constantinople, July 10.-The collective
note of the Powers demanding a cessation
of the obstruction of the peace negotia.
tions, which was presented by the Am
bassadors to the Turkish government yes
terday, is couched in the most severe
terms. 1t insists that the frontier be-
tween Greece and Turkey be as traced by
the military attaches of the embassies of
the Powers, and emphasizes the unani-
nous determination of the Powers to
secure prompt conclusion of peace. The
note, however, does not fix the date with
in which settlement of the questions
must be effected, and as it does not
mention the steps it is proposed to take
in the event of Turkey not yielding to
the wishes of the Powers, there is great
