Numerous potes have been exchanged be- tween the different Euronean cabinets. Mr. Gladstope ata cabinet council oa the 27t in- structed Lord Rosebery 1o gat at the bottom of the real intentions of the Germun govern- ment. The sole object of Germany is to make up for the ceficiency in the Austrian and Ital- iau forces, the financial condition of these countries not permittiug them to incremse | their avmies, as members of the tripie alli- ance. Germany 1s, therafore, obliged to make the efiort herself, ms it is impossivle for her allies to do anything Nevertheless the tendency is bad. The bourses are weak and 1l ateass. This is especially the case in France. Iu addition to the fears she has of the causes for the ine crease in the German army, she bas ber owm dificulties to contend with. The strike at Curmeux is @ proof of the wenkness of thak zovernment. The country foels that it is as budly governed as before the Boulangist explosion. It wauts u change.
