The Filipinos were then escorted by
Major Malloney to Manila, reaching

they were driven to the place.
News of the arrival of the Filipinos

persons are thought to have been killed
and between thirty and forty injured.
The eastern half of the town was en-

Unless all signs fail, the triple alli-

before another year. The seede OF
dissension sown by Germany, prob
ably for a purpose, have ripened
into harvest of hate on the
part of Bohemia and other Austrian
provinces. The German authorities
have recently been engaged in the
wholesale expulsion of foreigners.
Danes have been compelled to leave
North Schleswig, and Bohemian and
Polish laborers were forced out OF Sax
Guy and other provinces.

the French press that Great Britain IL
prepared to resent further insults, that
a repetition of the Fashoda affair is not
to be allowed, and that the Egyptian
question is to be settled according to
the law of possession. England was
sure of her ground before her accred-
tied representative committed the
country in such plain terms. And she
was, moreover, sure of a powerful con-
tinental ally and friend, such as only
the German empire could be.
Count Won Thun's words have made 1t
evident that the triple alliance is des-
tined to be dissolved, either by limita-
ton in 1904 or by the course OF events
in the near future; for, as Bismarck
once said. "all contracts between great
states cease to be Internationally bind
ing as soon as they are tested by the
struggle for existence" That Germany
clearly foresees such dissolution Il
evidenced by the fact that it has de-
cided to add 10000 men to its army
on a peace footing, by 1903. the year in
which the railroad across Siberia il
to be completed. Russia also is in
c-easing her forces, especially near the
frontier Of India, where $4,000 troops
have been added to already formlda-
bic garrisons.
Great Britain likewise is spending
vast amounts for new ships and mod
ern armament; and one wonders how
the delegates to the Russian emperor's
peace congress will make these facts
hsrmonize with the cars charming
theory of good will. Everywhere the
people are grooming under the burden
of taxation; peace is in every rulers
mouth. and yet the arsenals and ship
yards of every nation are working over
time.
Surely the great world conflict can
not be much longer deferred. In Asia
ard Europe the Russian bear is prepar.
ing for the inevitable attack on the
British lion. and the other nations are
deciding upon their allies.
International politics is an uncertain
game. Combinations formed to-day
may, be upset tomorrow. Yet, On gem
eral principles. the assertion is justi-
fled that Great Britain and Germany
will fight together, not only because
they are natural allies ethnologically,
but because their interests are identi-

world for the termination of the triple
alliance.
The German press, Of course, remon-
etrated against such an Interpretation
of the expulsion rule. but its utter
ances are not as emphatic as might be
expected.
1t is probable indeed that Germany is
tired of it's allies. Austria-Hungary is
a decaying monarchy, composed OF
HETEROGENEOUS elements and utterly In
canal BILE of unanimous action, and TIA
ly's power on land and sea is an I'M
known quantity. Both countries are
on the verge of bankruptcy and social
revolution. It is quite true that the
triple alliance has been the chief prop
of European peace for 20 years, but
conditions have changed since 1879
when it was first formed. Austria
Hungary and Germany are not natural
allies. The former is a Catholic nation.
which has always been more in SYM
pathy with monarchical France than
with Protestant Prussia; and Italy has
nothing in common with either Austria
or Germany. The alliance. from its in
ception, has been one OF convenience.
not of race interest. Since the Slav
elements have obtained control of at
fairs in Vienna the German Austrians
have naturally gravitated toward the
German empire. and it is barely posi-
BILE that the next move on the CONT

sorption of German Austria by the en-

inp the lifetime of Emperor Francis
Joseph, whose golden jubilee as SOW
ereign of the dual realm has but re-
Gently been celebrated with unbound
ed enthusiasm. Whatever ambitious
plans the German emperor may enter
tain, his personal friendship for his
venerable and venerated brother mon
arch is sincere. and during his lifetime
boundaries will be permitted to remain
in statu quo. After his death will come
the dissolution of the ancient realm
and the formation of a Slav power. with
Hungary as the chief factor. which will
