4 “THE EVENING STAR. ~~ WASHINGTON SATURDAY, ‘(kOsBY S. hat of any other paper local NEWS paper and it has ne com fy the clty. ertising Medi r ges taking place in Euro- pean politics can be seen, somewhat hazy as yet but with sin prominence of outline, the figure of Turkey receding from Constanti- opie and, rising into view, that more con muanding figure of a German or a Russian oc- eupatiou of the famous seat of tho old eastern ewpire. An vecupation sooner or later by one Of these powers or by anew state created asa puppet by the Great Powers seems as certain ‘as any human event before it has actually oc- curred. But before that can tuke place the sit- tatio: mast be made quile ready—the situa- tion embracing the greatest number of related and to some estent apparently unrelated facts, such as the poverty of the Italians, the tenure of the English tory government, the Tartar policy of Russia, the ability of the French to restrain themselves, and the general drift of aifairs on the continent. Whether, as the Turk dreads, William and Salisbury heve arranged virtually for a par-ition of the dominions of Mahomet’s successor so as to put Germany on the Bosphorus and con- firm Egypt in the permanent possession of England, or whether as the Kuss and the Frank have doubtiew secretly agreed. the ezar shall have control either outright or through a dependent prince or princes of European Turkey while the sultan shall be either Gethroned or permitted to reign in diminished state at Smyran, Damascus or Bagdad—which of these is destiny, the world may know ina few years or a few months. The course of eventyduring the century and since the first ‘Wresting of Mussulman territory by Russia makes some change manifest. The phase of the gucstion most interesting to Americans } aside froz any romantic wish to seo the Greek empire restored, which it never canbe. is the effect that the alleged arrangement between England and Germany may have on the home | politics of the former. Lord Salisbury, whose policy of government is now conciliatory at ome and offensive abroad, shows remarkable prescience from the standpoint of the English | landlord and aristocratic elass in discern that this is the right moment to earry on the ends of a nigh vory administration. ‘Those are obviously the repression of republicen France, with whore livers! institutious there is no sympathy, ard the exaltation of the central militerr powers. Coiucidently rhe secures freedom from interference by France in Egypt and by Ruosia in Asia While Bismarck lives and generals survive who were formed under the eye of Moltke, German infuence ia Europe is paramount. The great compact central power is more than a match, ‘with its emperor really sane, for any other power and its alliances have apparently given it twice the moral force of either France or Rasen, whose internal orgenization is perhaps much less secure. Germany's only possibie source of weakuess, aside from her imperial head, is socialism, which is permeating the army as well as the mass of the - Bus- tia’s source of danger is in her stupid, besoited peasantry. No such nation can be a fall match for the most profound, and for offensive mili- tary purposes the best organized people on the planet. Besides these defects of orgunization, Rassia is facing two great perils—famine in some of the provinces, and the dis- pleasure of the great banking interest which is largely in the hands of the Jews. | The French, always when well led the most brilliant soldiers of Europe, will hardly Bnd themselves ready just now to deal single- banded with Germany; and Austria and Italy, ‘With such part in the struggle as England may see fit to render, will be more than a match for Sigantic but semi-barbarous Russia. The very completeness of the arrangements of the four nations may prevent war. The fact will be creditable to the wisdom of France and Russia Just as the preparations against her are a splenaid tribute to the enlightened French na- ten. ————_ ++ Washington's victorious delegation to Detroit will be warmly welcomed tonight on their re- turn. It could not be otherwise, for their work | ‘was well done, their triumph was great and the appreciation by our citizens is adequate to the eceasion. Washington gladly greets the win- ners. Home to honors, home to work with ‘Tue Stan and all good citizens for the encamp- ment of 1392. ———_—++e___ Late reports of abad harvest of corn in Russia are ofticially confirmed by an order of the imperial council prohibiting the exporta- tion of that cereal from the country. This necessary step, thus promptly taken, shows that the ezar's government is alive to the danger of famine, or at leust of great popular distress, in his dominions. + From present indications the subtreasury plan is about to be downed in Mississippi. A singular feature im the fight is that while Sena- tor George, who is leading the anti-subtreagury | forces, seems to have made his calling and election sure, be has lost his own county.

AS such ft “fils a long-felt want" and marks « long stride in the advance of healthful dress reform. The Craven- ete process Of waterproofing is unlike any other. No flim: is spread over the surfuce torender it air resistin, but every individual and separate fiber composing the fabric is subject to a treatinent which causes tt to in- ibe that peculiarity of the feather of the water fowl, which causes the dawp to run off. This process not in the least impairs the wearing qualities of the fabric, is s0 permanent as to last us long as the fiber existe, is accomplished without auy disagreeable odor and ren- ders the cloth a healthful as though it hed not been proofed. ‘The sale in Europe of gvols that have been Craven- etted has been very large. A popular demand is being created on this side of the Atlantic, and ss the gar- ments proofed by the new inethod are such an advance in the direction of comfort and health tetailers ought to secure lines to show their leading customers. ‘Tho Palais Royal invites inspection of the new Cravenette Cloth.
