measure is regarded in Paris and in
every European capital as a master
stroke OF diplomacy and as the only
means Of avoiding a speedy collapse
OF Turkey, which, as things now stand,
would make general European war in
evitable.
Francis Joseph is acknowledged by
all as the grand old man Of Europe,
and although his birthday proposal
comes as a setback 10 the Young Turks
and as a wet blanket 20 the Military
League, its acceptance b. the signatory
powers Of the Treaty OF Berlin is
deemed here as practically certain, and
moreover decentralzation and local
autonomy will be so strenuously urged
by the powers that the Constantinople
government cannot avoid yielding TO its
terms.

be increased. With the exception OF
the Dreaduought and three Of the In
vincibles, which have five tubes each
all the vessels Of the Dreadnought class
now have three and the battle cruisers
two. II has been decided to provide
I'VE torpedo tubes TO the ships OF the
1911 programme while the torpedo
armament Of the destrOyers is being in
creased from two tubes 10 four.
The reason for the increases is that
torpedoes Of the latest types have a
range almost equal 10 that Of a gun.
Ten thousand yards is regarded as
quite a practicable distance for the
British HardcastIe torpedo. As tor
pedo carries a much more damaging
charge than a shell and strikes ves-
sci in it's most vulnerable part. great
attention has been paid 10 its develop
ment.
German Dreadnought battleships
carry six tubes each and battle cruis-
ers four. The heaviest torpedo equip
ment for any Dreadnought is on the
Japanese battle cruiser Kongo. now
building at Barrow, which will have
eight tubes.

Outlook for Home Rule.

Justice Delany, who sailed on tbe
Baltic this week after a month in Eng

much interested during his visit N this

rest now 20 be noted. is bound 20 result
before great while in Irish autonomy
Just before sailing Justice Delanv
said THE situation in Ireland with
regard 10 the rebellious language and

and intolerance. The world has pro-
