P0WERT MAY STAND
IN new ALIGNMENT

st. Petersburg, Jan. ga new
grouping of the powers of Europe,
with Germany and Russia arrayed
side by side in the closest friendship
and the mis-matched alliance of the
empire with republican France lag
ging in the rear was forecasted by
the words of Emperor Nicholas at a
gala luncheon at Tsarsko Selo in
honor of Emperor Williams birthday.
Rising to his feet before bril-
liant company of Russian and Ger
man representatives to propose
toast to the German emperor, EN-
peror Nicholas lifted his glass and
said slowly and distinctly as if weigh
ing every word:
Il drink to the health of the en-
peror of Germany and the king of
Prussia, my brother and very dear
friend"
The phrases chosen were signifi-
cant enough in themselves, the en-
peror in previous years having pro-
posed the health of the emperor
king without the qualifying express
sion of brotherhood and friendship;
but turning to Herr Won Schoen,
luG NGTudn WIZ was
standing at his right, the emperor
grasped his hand and Is reported to
have said:
"Frere, c'est plus que allie"
(Brother; that's more than ally.)
The emperor's choice of the word
"allie" indicates that the defensive
alliance with France is still consid-
cred binding, but undoubtedly as has
been the gossip in diplomatic circles
here for some time not hairs
breadth beyond the letter of the
treaty providing for common action
only in case France Is not the ag-
gressor, and there is no telling but
that it will be allowed to pass into
desuetude.
