Prospect of Mediation.

The prospect of European mediation
has aroused the keenest interest through
out diplomatic circles here. and although
inquiry at the leading embassies and le-
cations failed to disclose that any actual
move has been made, yet such move is
anticipated at almost any time. and when
taken it is felt that it will be an i'm

be the first to act by a tender of her
good offices. Up to tonight, however, the
French ambassador, NJ Cambon. had re-

upon the situation as grave, the general
sentiment among them is that the matter

tlon shown today to wait until the pres

feeling being that the real issue could not
be determined until the message had been
submitted.

for mediation, and to this end addressed
a note to the powers about 10 days ago.
