In noither House, however, was any approach to debate favored. On the Miniatorial enchea na strong feeling had proyailed that tho Minis. ters should have an opportunity of making some statemont ay to tho present situation on foreign affairs, aud tho policy which the Foreign Oftce will pursue, IN THE HOUSE OF Cosroxs, however, tho Chancollor of the Exchoquor invitod Mr. G. Bentinck not to proceed with his motion on tho ground that it would be disadvantageous to tho public interest that thore should bo a discuasion of foreign affairs just now, In the Honse of Lords the Promior took occasion to refor in a fow words to tho policy of the Government, which was, he said, one of a atrict conditional neutrality. BRITISH INTERESTS. © Tothe Western Associated Press, Loxpon, Aug. 1.—In tho IHource of Lords to- night the Earl of Beaconsfield, acknowledging Lord Veversham’s courtesy In withdrawing his notlea relative to the Eastern question, sald: “When this cruel’ and destructive war com- menced, her Majsesty's Government an- nounced that it should adupt ao policy of trict neutrality on condition that British interests were tot imperiled. Russia hos returned an answer which I think I am au- thorized in describing as concilistory and friendly to the communication in which we do- fined what we considered to bo our inter- ests. The Government has no renson to doubt that Rusefa will honorably observe the condi- tions which wero the subject of thatcorrespond- ence. But whatever bo the case the malnte- nunce of those conditions fs the policy of the British Government.” FIELD ‘OPERATIONS. A BMALL APFarn, {By Cable to The Chicago Tribune.) Lonpon Orricz or Tne Cutcaco ‘frrnune, Barisneny Srneet, W.0., Aug. 10—4t a, m— The engagement at Loftchn reported yester- day docs not appoar to have involved more than one Ruasiau division and eight Turkish batallions. ‘Cho Russians lost 900 killed and wounded, aud the Turks, go it is claimed, only 160, ° It is scarcely possible to Lellove that the assailants should have hopod to drive Osman Pasha from his positions with o force so inadequate ne that described, or that if they weroin earnest they should havo: retired with no greater loss than that abovo stated, It is moro than likely that TNY ADVANCE WAS ONLY TENTATIVE, and that the real struggle began on the fol- lowing day, and may even now bo going on. ot Plovna, At Constantinople tho fact of the conflict was known yesterday, but there was pro- fessed ignorance as to the issue, A lorgo Russian army under the Ozaro- witoh is facing Eyonb Pasha on tho loft and Mehemet All Pasha on tho right. The for- mer ig threatening from tho direction of Rasgrad, and tho Intter from Os- man Bazar, Eyoub is belioved to have 48 battalions of infantry, 62 squadrons of cavalry, and fifteen batteries of artillery, while the army of Mehemet Ali Pasha contains about 60,000 menof all arms, IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN whethertho Turkish armies above-mentioned will make an attack or romain until the Rus- slans are ready to assail thorn. Suleiman Pasha is believed to be en- deavoring to force tho passage of the Halkang, so ag to form the centre of the ‘Turkish line, Eyoub and BMehemet Ali form- ing the right, aud Osman Pasha at Plevna the left. Such an oxtended lune, should it be formed, would be o dangerous one, as it would be » orescont with the Russians inalde, and free to concen. trate upon any point, 4 STEONG RUSSN ARMY is tn front of Plevns, and the Roumanians ere crossing to operateon the Turkish left. aah CHICAGO, FRIDAY, AUGUST 10, Shonld they be actually called into active co- operntion everything points to the probnhill- ty that for tho present active operations will bo only carried out in the region botween the Osinn and Vid. Grand Duke Nicholas has removed his headquarters from Biela to Bulgaroni on the River Osina, half way upon tho rond to Plevna. ‘The determination of tho Russians to crash Osman Pasha is manifest, and the Iatter mnat maintain n defensive attitude in the face of snperior numbers, Although ho ennuot bo free from alarm at tho movements of tho TRoumanians upon the northwest, and the re- newed signs of activity in Servia, on tha other hand, the Turks have been relieved by tho collnpse of the Bosnian insurrection and the flight of Despotovitch, the ablost loader of tho insurgents, who has been interned by tho Austrian Government in Dalmatia. ‘There can bo no doubt that the Russians are making all tho oxertions of which they are capable to overwhelm the Turkish army in the West, but possibly for the present they may .be able’ only to harass Osmnn Pasko with ® succession of blows or feints until they have relieved their right from the pressuro of tho hostile forces between tho Quinn and tho Vid. It Will hardly be safe for them to engage Mo- hemet Ali Poxho in front of Rasgrad, or push forward to intercept Saletman Pasha in his march across the Balkans. SEADER EENEIN evidently hopes to mako HRasgrad another Plevna, threatening and checking tho Rus- slans in their advance, while Suleiman Pasha ja marching northward upon the theatre of war, It is indeed into Sulotmon Pasha’s hands that the opportunity for winning dis- tinction by a sudden and timely blow bos now passed, ‘That Gen, Gourka has retreated before the Ottoman commander is now officially ndmit- tod in Russian dispatchesfrom headquarters, but, of courae, he will not relax his grasp upon tho Shipka Pass unless he finds his northern communications threatenod, At present there is no sign that Mchemet Ali Pasha and Osman Pasha are able or willing to threnton Gen, Gourkn’s communications, so that in all probability the Russians can mnnintain themselves in tho Shipka Pass ahd oppose successfully any ad. vance in that direction by Suleiman Pasha. IN BULGARIA. PLEVNA ATTACKED, Constantinorie, Aug. 1.—According to in- teillgence In diplomatic circles, tue Russians in superior forco haye attacked Plevna to-lay, ‘Tho result {aunknown.

Vienna, Aug, 9.—It is salt the Czar is ona tour of iuspection In the Czarowitch’s army, FRACE RUNOK, Lonnon, Aug. 9.—The 7imea’ Berlin dispatch asserts that Turkey recently notified the Powers of the Porte's willingness to conclude a peace ou the geueral basis of Count Andrassy's rc- form noto, but the . correspondent thinks this is uot likely to lead to any practical ru- sults just now. Russia is far tou strong and too jealous of her reputation to acqulesce in the Turkish proposttlons after one or several rebuffs, Austria nud Germany, on the other hand, knowlng that Russla fs resolved on cone tinulng the war, and, if necessary, golug Into winter quarters In Bulgaria or Roumania, lcal- tate to recommend to Prince Gortechakof the message of the Grand Vizier. UNSUCCESSFUL, Vienna, Aug. 0.—The Greek Envoy has left Be}grade, Bervia, His mlaston was a failure. IN THE BNOLISH PARLIAMENT. Earl Feversham, in the House of Lords, snd Bentluck, in the House of Commons, this after- noon consented, at the request of the Goyern- ment, to refrain from calling atteution to the Eastern question, The Government's request is based on tho conviction, as stated by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that discussion now would bo dlsadvautagcous to the public service, Tho Under Secretary for the Foreign Depart- ment, In reply to a question, sald: “There have been no negotiations between England and Austria regarding the mobilization of the Aus- trian troops in caso Roumauis or Servia partici- patolo the hostilities or tho Russlans onter Serva. The Goverhment knows of no direct negotiations betwen the Cxar and tho Sultan, therefore there is no ground for protest. I do not know that Austria has commuulcated with Rusela or Turkey on the subject.” : Tus TWO EMPERORS, Iscutet, Aug. ¥.—The Empcror of Germany left at 0 o'clock to-day, after cordially taking Jeave of the Austrian Empress and Crown Prince, ‘The Emperor of Austria accompanied the Emperor William to Edensee. The whole interview testiiled to the existence of the frank- eat understanding between the two monarchs, Loxpox, Aug. 9.—A London correspondent telegraphs that at the mecting of the Emperors at Isch), the question of Russia's extending the seat of war toNervia was ucver touched upon, ‘The question is likely to be dropped alsogether, Russian military reports from Bicla now unex~ pectedly declare that Servlan co-operation fs un- necessary. It 1s supposed this change of tone is due to Russls having become aware that the re- quest for such co-operation would have been re- fused. Loupox, Aug. %—In relation to the Imperial Interview at Ischl, Berlin xemi-ofictal papers contradict the report that a deflnite political agreement was conclutted, They merely adinit that the triple alliance was reaffirmed, ‘The New IMree J’resse takes a similar view.
