LONDON, Jan. 29.—After an un-| usually prolonged period of extreme tension, all signs point to an early im- provement in if not a complete solution of the various international political problems agitating the ne of G Britain. The Foreign and Col al of- fices are beginning to see d ight through the darkness which has long been enveloping the Far Bast, West Africa, the Upper Nile and India; and unless signs fall ard information from the best informed circles is faulty, the Marquis of Salisbury and Joseph Chamberlain, Secretary of State for the Colonies, will divide the honors and Great Britain will secure about all she So far as China is concerned, this view, in connection with the speech unces that in order of Mr. Curzon, the Parllamentary Sec- has s ‘at the disposal of ducation, toward the retary for the Foreign Office, on Tues- day, and the reported acceptance of the British loan, is generally regarded as Mr. Curzon foreshadowed the probable success of the loan negotia- | tions, the achievement of Great Brit- ain’s purpose in keepinig the ports free to the whole world and the mainten- of Friedrichsruhe | ance of treaty rights whereby “spheres Bismarck’s | of influence are rendered impossible.” The Russian proposal of a loan on reground of public | the same terms as Great Britain was not taken seriously. It is understood the money herself without drawing upon her war reserve funds.

Copyright, PARIS, Jan. fus crisis has been less acute durins the past week, popular opinion is still v excited over the matter. The vol- cano not extinct; it is simply slun.- bering. One point which has tended to excite the public is the fear of compli- ations with Germany, although therc to be little ground for expecting . M. Henri Rochefort, in a discus- sion of the gnatter this morning, saia: “I don't fear complications with Ger- many. What, however, is certain is that were any to arise, the Jews will be the first to suffer from it.” This puts the matter in a nutshell. Rightly or wrongly, popular feeling is against a revival of the Dreyfus case, and is bitterly opposed to the people advocating it. It is felt that the case cannot be opened to the public without such details being discussed as might endanger the peaceful relations of France with other nations. This feel- 1598, by James Gordon Bennett. s 4 |ing can only be realized by likening it it. Hence the Czar's peaceful assur- | ances and Lord George Hamilton's statement in his speech on Tuesday Russia were en- tirely satisfactory will not have sur- | prised America. Turning to West Africa, an official of the Colonial Office states that the impossibility of securing witnesses tions. Some of the most important witnesses arrived only last week, and they are now in Paris. Thus far all con- and ‘“provisionally ceded nominally, whichinfluenced | pending the result of the convention,” but Mr. Chamberlain is perfectly sat- isfied that the British claims will be upheld, and that the French will be confined westward of a line prolonged from the present Lagos - Dahomey On | frontier to the Niger and along the right bank of the Niger to Say. In the meantime he does.not propose ! a das read- | probable adverse decision of the con- and ars has been enrolled at Tbaden during the hristians in | jast few weeks, and detachments will be sent to the front as soon as the men newspapers | pecome efficient. In regard to the Upper Nile the in- teresting news which Mr. Curzon as his Majesty was | dqropped on Thursday to the effect that 5 e has given | strict injunctions that Herr Trojan be | Great Britain and King the ratifications of the treaty between Menelik of ned at Weichselmunde, situated in | Abyssinia_have been exchanged and Herr | that the Government hopes shortly to sther critic, encountered the | have an accredited representative at | the Abyssinian court has given the greatest satisfaction as helping to solve the question of the Upper Nile. The terms of the treaty will not be di- vulged until it is presented to Parlia- ment, but the hints dropped at the Colonial Office indicate that the agree- ment is based on the principle that is preferable to hostile to gratify his ambitions in the equa- torial Hinterland in a manner not in- terfering with the Anglo-Egyptian ‘plans from the West Coast earlier is the rea- | For | son for the delay in the Paris negotia- to the state of mind of the entire nw- tion at the time of the French revolu- tion. Tn fact, the history of '87 seems to be repeating itself in a remarkable way. Then a mere frivolous matter about a diamond necklace played a prominent part in the furor and led to an important event. To-day it is a_question of military trial, which, as M. Edmond Drumont i out, concerns no one but mili- y cfficers. As he says officers in the army arc there of their free wiil, and soldiers by compulsion. There may be, therefore, some reascn for disputing the authority of the court-martial in the case of a common soldier, but there can be none in the case of an officer, see- ing that he has voluntarily placed him- self within its jurisdiction. w, just as 1783, when popular feeling was ex- cited to an extent that led to the most terrible events that ever cceurred, is added the threatened intervention of foreigr. nations in France's domestic af- fairs. And, again, to-day dread of in- tervention on the part of Germany over the Dreyfus matter has embittered the feeling against those whom the peo- ple consider guilty of bringing about a | possibility of this interventicn. It is useless blinking at the fact that the nation lopks upon this attempt to re- | habilitate Dreyfus as the result of a radical combination If the result should lead to difficulties with any for- | eign nation it would be just the same as in 1793. That is to say, first, the fury of the populace would be spent upon those accused of causing it. Re- cent events in Algiers proved this. If the Prussian and Austrian armies*had | not been summoned to the frontier in the early days of the first republic, Louis XVI might have retained his head, but at the first breath of foreign | interference all other sentiment seems to have been swept away by rage and fear. and the arlstocrats whom the peo- ple believed to be guilty of calling for- eign aid had to bear the onslaught of the frenzied nation. To-day at the first idea that Germany might intervene, owing to the influ- ence of what the nation at large | chooses to call the Jewish syndicate, friendly Abyssinia on the Upper Nile France. | Therefore King Menelik will be allowed | the people would get into a dangerous state of excitation, and the Jews would be in a precarious situation were any international difficuities to spring out of the present agitation. Good Times Ahead. Carloads of furniture are dafly leaving the big house of the Pattosien Company, corner Sixteenth and Mission. Their sale of the Michigan furniture awakens peo- rle, and the way they are fitting out homes, good times surely are on hand People should see the five plece parior sets going at $20; all other goods in pro- portion. ™ —_———— Death at Alvarado.
