the drunkard many heartache. But
he cannot help it. He fights as long

he SAYS are imperatively Necessary. But the
achievement Of them is impossible without the
unanimous cooperation Of all the powers
Therefore Russia declines to cooperate in the
plan PROPOSED by Great Britain and urges that
instead Great Britain ana all the powers shall
cooperate in the plan proposed by Russia

will he done. asserting that Great Britain has

proved the Russian scheme. Il is 10 he hoped

10 the LebanoniZing part Of the plan, with the
Droviso that the chief executive lie called In
