London, Aug. S.-That the map Of
Europe stands chance of being radi-
cally revised d, owing more or less to
petty squabble concerning a railroad
connecting two places in China, of
which not one European out of 1000
ever heard the names till two weeks

cal fate Yet it seems entirely proba-
BILE that England and Russia, after
many feints, are about to cross swords
over the Niu Chwang affair. Russia is
clearly omnipotent in China, and If
she means to use this power to the
detriment Of the British, and inciden-
tally of American interests, it is felt
that the time has come to make pro-
test other than diplomatic. This, at
least, is the openly expressed opinion
of five out Of six members of parlia-
ment.
