 Meanwhile the cause of the fright has since proved groundless. It has been sort of night mare. he Balkan federation, that the Turk practically driven out of Europe proves be but combination of hot-headed h'tle states among themselves that the common enemy has been defeated
 Germany apparently nothing to fear At the same time attempt has been made 10 repeal the noxious war tax, and the military revenues oi the government continue to expand

there are only three senator's, it is
ccntended, that are not under the

power to affect any compromise that
