east when the hands of Russia were flo
up with that war, her 100000 Moham-
medan subjects in Asia would have been
the first to take up arms and fight for
their religion. Nothing of the kind oc-
CURED. On the contrary, RUSSIA has been
the least troubled by them. In fact tlrey
nave proved to be the cars most loyal
people during a period when Russia has
been shaken to her foundations by revo-
lutionary and anarchisuc upheavals. For
Russia, at any rate, such a thing as a
Moslem peril does not exist. Various
stories are being related of the old-fash-
Toned Friendship that binds together
Christians and Mohammedans within her
Asiatic provinces. Though the Russian
officer is less civilized and great deal
more brutal than the English, the subject
Mohammedan of Asia will always prefer
to be on good terms with the Russian.
Now since the papers report the illness
of Sultan Abdul Hamid who is the rec
ognized chief caliph of the entire Mos
lem world, the talk of a "A.Oslem periT'
has again started up. Several papers
have publised accounts to the effects that
at various MOslem centers a general COM
motion is being noticed, and the ques-
tons are being asked, ''What will happen
after the present sultan is no more?'
and would not his death hasten an oc-
casion for the pan-Islamic world to strike
the long-aimed blow at the Christians?"
That the fear of such a thing is ill

INTERPRETATION OF KAISER
WILHELNFS ACTIVITIES.

SOFIA, Bulgaria, Oct 2O.-One of the
most fruitful subjects for discussion by
the press during the last several years
has been the peril of pan-Islamism. Be
fore the Russo-Japanese war the "yel-
low peril" then showing some threaten
ing symptoms, was considered seemingly
dangerous. The attention of the world
was called to the declarations and procla-
nations of the Holy Islamic league" of
Bagdad, believing itself to be the head
of all other MOslem organizations, whose
purpose was to guard the interests of
Mohammedanism throughout the world.
This alarmed the governments of England
and France, since TREY rule over moro
Mohammedan subjects than the sultan
himself Russia was not affected. She
seems to understand the nature of her
Mohammedan subjects better than either
England or France.
APPEAL TO MOSLEMS.
At any rate. the public opinion of
| those two nations was aroused to a high
degree when over two years ago Sheik
Abdul Hagk, Grief of the MOslem move
ment in Bagdad, published the follow
ing statement defining the position am
purposes of this organization:
"Christian peoples 1t is the time
that we should be heard The hatred

divines from the Sheik-ul-Islam down to
the least-paid sexton of a mosque.
PAN-GERMANISM A PERIL?
II is not the Moslem peril tlnt Europe
must be prepared to face but, rather,
that of pan-Germanism. Ever since the
kaiser betrayed never-failing friend
ship for Abdul Hamid several political
catastrOphes have taken place to the con-
sternatiOn of the civilized nations. Is
not Germany mainly responsible for the
avOwed stubbOrnness of the sultan
against yielding to the demands of tire
powers for the introduction of the hu-
name measures guaranteed by the treaty
of Berlin throughout his empire in order
that the condition of the subjected
Christian races might be Hmeliorated?
Silently but persistently William IL. has
worked his way through at Constantine
pie until at the present time the German
embassy occupies the foremost position in
the eyes of the sultan, while the rest Of
the ambassadors stand around gaping.
Economically, Germany bids fair to swal-
low up Asia Minor. Germany does not
fear the idea of -Islamism. She
would rather encourage it. Not succeed
ing in Morocco. the kaiser will try TO
place Egypt on the table. Not succeed
ing there, he may seek for an opportunity
of gaining something from the new quar-
rel between France and Turkey in Tri-
poll. ''Long live the Alemanic PATHS
hah!" might fittingly be added to the
prayers of the faithful Mussulman sub
jects of Sultan Abdul Hamid IL.
