London, April 1S.-A courier has ar
rived at the foreign Office with dis
patches from Sir n. r. O'Connor,
British Ambassador at Constantinople,
in which the situation in the Balkans
is described as one requiring immediate
action on the part of the powers. Your
correspondent learns that England is
determined to play the part of second
to no other power, her object in taking
the front rank being to block Russian
aggressions. English policy will thus
continue the same as it was during the
Crimean and Russo-Turkish wars of
1855 and 1878.
Berlin, April 1S.-According to the
Frankfurther Zeitung today Russia is
contemplating an attack on Constan-
tinople. The Russian Black Sea fleet,

pol, and is ready for action. The OBJ
ject is the seizure of Constantinople.
The ships of the volunteer fleet, con-
tinues the Getting, have been forbidden
to leave port and have been ordered to
be at the disposition of the government.
Ships returning from the far East are
also being requisitioned at all points.
