ENOLAND BUDDENLY ORDENS HORTILE OPERA- TIOXS, [7ly Cable to The Chicago Tribune.] Loxnoy, Jan. 25—6 a. m.—War is En. gland’s decision. 1n the Houro of Commons Inst night tho Chancellor of the Exchequor announced that, on Monday, the Govern. ment would nsk supplomontary supplies for army and navy. ' THE HOPES OF THR PRACE PARTY aro wholly crushod by the evident determina. tion of Lord Beaconsfield for war, and yes. tordny Lord Derby, Minister of Foreign Af. fairs, and Lord Carnarvon, Colonial Minis. tor, resigned their places in the Cabiuet, Orders have beon sont to tho British Aedi. terrancan fleet TO LAND A FORCE OF MARINEA AND BAILORS st Bonlair, covering tho appronch to Gal. lipoli, and six of the largest ships have been ordered to bring up a garrison from Malta. Itis . NO LONGER A CONDITIONAL NEUTBALITY that Eugland mnintains, but, on’ tho con- trary, active participation in the war. Fivo million pounds will be tho amonnt asked for on Monday, aud, as every effort will bo mado to obtoin a full vote on both eides, thora will ba USUAUALLY EXCITING BCENES TONOUQHOUT ENGLAND until the voto is rcached. Most active ox- ertions to defeat tho voto for supplics will be mado by the Liberal leadors nnd by the peacs socletios thronghout the Kingdom, but, even if the monoy should ho refused, penco would hardly thereby bo socured, I know, on tho best authority, that, should the vote be unfavorable, which Is very unlikely, Lord Beaconsfleld WILL DISSOLVE PARLIAMEXT and appeal to the country, meanwhilo carry. ing on warlike measures as far as practica. blo with the force at his disposal. In that ovont the country would be absolutely en. goged In war by the time the elections came off, and it is probable that the roturn of the mombers in favor of s continuation of the war would be secured, TIZ OAUSE this sudden action on the part of tha Cabinet is belioved to be the following statement of tho Agence Russe of Bt, Petorsburg: The Imperial Government s not unaware of the Importance tached by the Dritlsh Qovern- ment to Galiipoll, . Rusela hss no inter- ost In touchlng tils voint, which doe not coms within tho sphere of her operatlo; and it will neitner oe occuplod nor attacked unless the Turkish rezular arny shonld bo concentratod there, in which case it would be {mpossible to leave auch a force on our flanks. THIS SEMI-OFPICIAL STATEMENT clearly foreshadowed tho intention of the Russiana to march on Conatantinople, slnce otherwisaa Turkishforceat Galipoli oould not endanger any flauk of the Russian army. It also is equivalent to a declarstion that Gallipoli will be attackod if a Turkish force is left there. Now, as Turkey could not po eibly venture to leave Gallipoli unde. fended, the above atstement ix equivalent to a direct announcement that DOTH OALLIPOLI AND CONSTANTINOPLE WILL DX, * TAXEN by Russia if possible, In the House of Commonsa last night the queation was diroctly asked of the Govern- meut whother they were in possession of tho Russian terms, and TOE RZPLY WAS ¢ No," In view of this atatement, I place no reliance whatever upon tho sensational reports cur- rent hero nd to Bussia's terms. Tax Cuica- ao Tursuxe's St. Petersburg correspondent telegraphs & reaffirmation of the statement that the opening of the Dardanelles is & con- dition which will be ABSOLUTELY INSISTED UPOM. Few persons now hope for suy result from the present armlstice or peaco negotiations unless the Turks are overpowered beforo England can send material aid. It is proba- ble, howaver, that, as I telegraphed at the beginning of negotiations, Turkey's sole objoct has boen TO FOROE ENGLAND TO JOIN HER by apparent willingness to surrender every. ihing lo Russia's demands without rogard to England's interest.

Koeciat Dispated to Tas (aicagn Tridune, New Yonk, Jan. 24.—A Londaon special rays: ““Ttic popular lrritntion over the Russia-Turkish conflict Is Increasing as the struugle spproaches the crisis. The Government had every reason to expect, during the past week, that the Rosstan Government would communieate to them the terms of peace to be granted to Turkey, but that dallyexpectation has only brought news of the continuet advance of the Russian armles and the terrible suflerings of the fugitives from the territory over which they are moving, THE EARL OF DERBY'S INQUIRIES have onfly recelved evasive replies from Prince tiortschakofl, while, In spite of the understand.

In the House of Commons to-night, notice was given by the Chancellor of the Exclhicquer that the Government woulld, on Monday, move for a supplementary credit for naval and military purposce, which {s considered {n reality a war yote. The announcement was recelved in the House WITIl GREAT ENTITUSIANY, and the questions addressed to the Minfstorlal benehes from the Liheral slde were listened to with fmpatience. The news of this action on the part of tho Government, aithough causing much excitement, is recelved with great satls- faction. Tho bellef is general that any attempt on the part of the Russians to oceupy Gallipolt will lead to o declaration of war by Ureat Britatn, PEACE OR WAR? A THE ALTERNATIVE, Loxnox, Jan. 24.—A Constantinople dispateh says it Is alleged that Rusals, havinz to choose berween conditions of peace claching with the Interests of Austrla and conditions clashing with England, has sclected the latter alterna- tive. 8he therefore abandons the fdeaof de- manding political autonomy for Bulgaria, and demands fnstead the right of the passage of the Darlanclles, the cession ofa partion of Arme- nia, and material guorantees for war indemnity, JARD TERMS, CONBTANTINOTLE, Jun. 2,.—The Porte has re- celved the Rusaian conditions of pesce, which arohard, The Porte s now deliberating, but has taken no resolutiun mo far, nor yes thform= ed the forelzn Ambassnders of the conditions.

Laren-—It appears certain that the Porte will accept the conditions, ono of which is the pay- ment of a very heavy war fndomuity and occu- pation of a portion of the Turkish territory as sceurity for payment, [Norx—When this news left Constantinopls the Portocannot Lave becn informed of the proceedings of the Britlsh Parliament.] AXOTIIER VERSION. A Pern dispatch suys the llusslan propositions are more moderato thau aay antleipations that have been published, aud aro not such as are likely to arouso tho hostility of the English Government. The stipulation that causes the greatest anxiety Is suld to bo the domand for the temporary occupation nf Constautinople. It 1s hoped that this may be avolded, DOUNT AND ANXIETY, Lospon, Jan. 24.—Though it 18 the general Impression fn most of the European capitals thay the Turks will aceept Rusata’s conditions, and peace be concluded, yet much doubt and anxlety provail, partularly in London ond 8t. Petersburg, The latest advices from tho lutter place say that MORE CONFPIDENCE 18 felt since tho peace conditions were submitted to Austris, and were objected to on her own be- half, thus minimizing the danger of an Anglo- Austrian alllance. It s sald thoe conditions, which were only made known at Vienna this week, had been submitted to Prince Blsmarck and approved long ago, It the conditions arc kuown in London, the fact has uot yot been made public. COUNT ANDRASST, feariog he saw a reason for England's veto of the conditions, has undertaken to sccure their modification. PRRSS STATEMEXTS, The utterances of the reputed scmi-ofiicial QGermau_newspapers are very vonflicting. Tho Berlin tProvincial Correspondence, thu organ of the Home Office, belioves peaco will Le secured, ‘The Berlin Sost, conservative, trus bo Czar will not oceupy Constautinople, becauss in that caso England must interfere. Tho Allegemeine Zeltung, reputed Dismarck's speckil mouth- plece, says the evontual cutry of the Russians futo Coustantinople cannot longer bo regarded a8 impracticable. The Natlonal Zeituny, the vr- @an of tho Natloual Liberal party, uleo belleves that the Russians intend to go to Constanti- nople, 3 i POSSINLE INTRRPERENCE. It the Russians attempt to go to Galllpoll or Counstantinople thero Is handly a doubt that the Brittsh Ministry will interfers, If supported by o majority of Parliament, and thoy probably will be, although the most advanced section of the opposition {n buth Houases would not reard the occupation of Constantinople as an inter- ference with Britlsh juterests, or a ground for Lostile action. TUKKISK MILITARY SITUATION, Mcantime, the military situation of the Turks lsnot so desperuto as secmed durlyg the past few days of the pavle. Nuvertheless, the Porta 18 very suxlous for a cussation of hostiiitics, notwithstanding Suleiman Pasha's army is safe, and preparations for the defepse of the short lime across the peniusula at Tchataladia are well advanced. RUBsIA, BNOLAND, AND GALLIPOLL T, PETERIBURG, Jan, 34.—The Ayence Jiuate the Imverial Uovernment i aware of the importance England attaches to Gallivoll.

U~5p. m.—Slr Btafford North- cote lias just notified the House of Commons that he will, on Munday, mave for suppletnen- tary supplies for naval and military service. Loxpox, Jan. 24.—In the House of Com- mons, after 8ir 8tafford Northcote's notitleation that he would, on Monday, move for supple- mentary supplies for naval and military rervice, the Marquis of Hartington, leader of the Lib- eral party, asked how Bir Stafford would recon- clle the fuconsistency of this notice with the promise made the first nielit of the session not to wmake s proposal untll the conditions of pecs wero recelved, and whether be would make any othier statement calculnted to allay the anxiety sure to be ralsed by the notice. 8ir Stafford reminded the Iiouse that he expected on the first nignt to know the terms of peace (within two davs. A week had clapsed and not only were the Government not in posscasion of the terms of peace, but considerable Ruasian forces were still advancing. Therefore, the Government think they cannot longer delay the proposal. Loxvox, Jan, H4~7 p. m.~In the House of Lords, Lord Beaconsfleld, in response to & question by the Duke of Argyle, spoke in the samne strain a3 Sir Stafford Northeotes Lord Heaconstield distinctly sald England was pot going to be dictsted to by auy other Power, ‘The Earl of Carnarvon, Colonlal Sceretary, and Lord Derby, Forelgn Secretary, were not pres- ent, It was rumored fn the lobhy that the Earl of Carvarvon had resigned.

MEETING OF LIBRRALS. Loxpox, Jan, %5 a. ni.~The Advertiser un- derstands that Immediately after 8ir Btafford Northeote's annouucement & mecting of Liveral leaders was held, at which the Marquis ot Hartington fand the Rt.-Hons, Jdohu Bright, W. E. Fomster, and 1, G, E. Childers wero present. The meeting declded that if the voto wero not s war vote, but merely ona of preparation demanded by the exigencies of the situatlon, snd it it was pro- posed by a united Cabinet, thers should be no opposition. It was poluted out that what was asked for was not an extraordinary vote, but only a supplementary estimate. There could, therefore, be no fmmedlate apprehension of war, ‘Tha Advertiser belleves it any opposition is of- feved to the vote, the Uovernmental majority will be largely augmented by Liberal defec- tions. RESIGNED, Loxvon, Jan, 25—5 &, m.—The Dally News says: “We are enabled to stato that the Earls of Derby and Carnarvon have ptaced thelr rosigna- tions In the hands of the Prime Minister,” IMPORTANT RUMOR. oN, Jan., 25—5 m w.~The Dally News ‘Weare informed that, in view of the contlngency of the reccipt of an authentic fn- forination of & Russian force advancing or hav- fug advauced on (allipoll, instructions have been sent to the commanderdn-chiet of tho Moditerranean flest, now at Saros, to land fu the vicnlty of Bulalr a forev of marinea ant blue-jackets In order that they may act as the defenders ad ine terfn of the lues of Gallipoll, and. further, to hold fu readiness alx of his roomiest ships for fnmediate dispatch to Malta to bring up the muss of its garrison.” ANTI-WAR PROTESTS. ‘Tha National Liiera) Federation of Birmlng- ham has sent a clreutar to all Liberal assocla- tlous asking thom tosummon meetings to pe- tition againat the war pollcy, FRESS OFINION, ‘Thie News considers the Government’s deter- mivation to arm ss singularly §il-aavised, un- reasonable, aod dangerous, What Lord Bea- couslicld has virtually doue (s to thresten Ko £llsh fntervention In behall of Turkey, THE TIMRS, In confirmation of Sir ttafford Northcote's statement this afternoon the Zimes has the fol- lowing: “To 8ir Stafford Northcote's au- uouncement {o the House of Commous yester- day we belleve must be added the fuct that the British fect has received orders which indicate a very grave determination.
