THE TALK or LONDON.
France, Russin, India, Kruger, and
the Rise I'm Wheat.
(Copyrlghted, 1897, by The Associated
Press

NCDPy iibhltut 1871 Dy the Associated
Press)
LONDON. August 2S.-In political Lon
don at present there is plenty OF news
from France, India, and President
Kruger, each contributing a sensation
through the week, while the rise in
wheat has set loose an oratorlcal flow
regarding the agriculture OF England. All
four topics promise abundant sequences,
both material and political
The accomplishment OF the Franco
Russian alliance, which some Of the Con-
servative newspapers are inclined, to
deny. eXpostulating that the Cars words
could be applied to any friend
ly nation IS, however. accepted by the
majority as an undoubted fact. This is
recognized deliriously in France sheer
ing.y in Austria, uncomfortably in Ger
many, and here in London they are
slowly awakening to the underlying
meaning Of the alliance as IL is UNDER
stood on the Continent.
France Is delighted, for three reasons.
Reasonably or not, the alliance Is ac-
copied as ioreshadowing the retrOces-
sion OF Alsace-Lorraine, which, France
holds, Russia would be glad 10 assist in,
as a trouble 10 Germany. Secondly, the
alliance largely shifts the control Of
Europe back to France.
LONDON OPINION.
The popular opinion Of London, which
rejoices at The alliance, as being entirely
directed against Germany, is well voiced
by the Saturday Review, which says:
THE Emperor OF Germany has received
rebuff which he Will bitterly resent.
There Is no doubt the formal alliance Of
France aud Russia makes il henceforth
impossible for him to be the arbitrator
Of the destnies of Europe, which he as
pires TO become The Dual Alliance is
~ least as powerful as the Triple ALI
ance was, formerly. II is no longer a
dream"
In France. one curious result OF Presi-
dent Faure's visit 10 Russia has been
the creation OF Prince Louis Napoleon
as a new Pretender The French news
papers are all convinced that there was
a political motive in his refusal to accept
the Legion Of Honor decoration at the
hands of President Faure, although the
Prince distinctly stated that HE refusal
WAS based on the fact that he had re-
ceiyed from Napoleon III, while sim in
his cradle. the Grand Gordon OF that
order.
INDIAN TROUBLES.
The Indian troubles have let loose a
food Of criticism, which blanes every
body connected with the government.
Sir Ellis Ashmead Bartlett. IN yiruient
letter just published declares that
spirit OF fanalIcism has been aroused,
which will be most difficult TO quell,
adding: Every gallant life now lost in
the onslaught Of the northwestern Jana
tics. is a victim OF the reckless vilifica-
tion and persecution OF Turkey which
has been the British policy since 1923,
and which has ruined the Armenians.
Frustrated the Greeks. reyolutionized
Crete. lowered British prestige. and
alienated the Mussulmans In India.

known authority on all Oriental questions.

situation, though disclaiming that the
Sultan has had any particular hand In
the present troubles, which ere Pan
lsiamic. The Saturday Review. while ex-
culpatrg the Sultan. declares that LORD
Roberts. Of KanGahar. Is believed by
many Of the be- Informed people TO be
at the bottom OF the affair. which Is
Chased as a legacy OF the Lansdowne-
Roberts administration. whose motto was:
Military aggression"
THE AMEER.
In spite of constant denials. Il is little
doubted IN official circles that the Ameer
OF Afghanistan has had a hand in the
present Indian troubles. and that his at
titude toward Great Britain Is unfriendy.
IL has been known for months past that
the Amer had been ordering enormous
quantities of arms and ammunition from
agents in England. and this so attracted
notice recently that his orders were not
executed. In the mean while. no news Is
permitted TO leak out OF Cabul. the capt.
tai of Afghanistan. Every mail Is closely
scrutinized, and all suspected letters are
opened.
sir Sa1larpin. the Ameer's English right
hand man, has been expected in England
on his annual visit for weeks past, bus
no news mas been received regarding his
movements. and It IS quite possible that
he is detained at Cabul by the Amer.
KRUGER.
President Kruger's sensational defiance
Of Great Britain is accepted coldly by the
British as amounting TO nothing. and as
to which the transfer of the British pro
tectorates from the Foreign Office to the
Colonial Office is a reply. Joseph Cham
berlain. Secretary Of State for the Colo
MES. has abruptly affirmed the suzerainty
Of Great Britain over the Transvaal. and
is determined 10 assert 1t in no uncer-
tain fashion.
STUDENTS CONVENTION.
The fourth OF a series of college
students conventions. organized I'm 1855,
has been I'm session for week In Switzer-
land. Seven hundred delegates. represent
ing all nations, are present Among them
Is national band OF Anglo-Americans and
Irish-Americans, including DIR. Zahn. the
Catholic evOlutionist. of Indiana: Mgr.
OConnell. president Of the American Col
lege at Rome; five professors OF the
Catholic University at Washington; and
Baron Won Buertling, of Mexico. Scores
of papers have been read. and they were
all conspicuous for their frankly modern
and advanced tone. At the same time.
the delegates were absolutely loyal TO the
Church.
