JUNE EDWARDS' SUBJECTS ARE UNEASY NOT DECEIVE Their King Is Going to Visit the German Emperor, Who May Lead Thousand Men Have Been Sent to Its Relief and More are Following Rumored Capture of General Kuroki by the Russians. London, June 4 King Edwarl's activity in the field of luiernaliuual diplomacy has given rise to some uneasiness in foreign iifllecs and other government circles, which finds special vent in the comment regarding the forthcoming meeting of the King with Emiiemr William at Kiel. The Snvta-tu- i voices this fet ling today expressing grate alarm at the possibilities which may ensue from Kiug Edward's German visit, saying: it is suggested that the emperor will take the opportunity of hia royal uncle's visit to entangle us in some form of agreement with Germany, or that even If things do not go so far as that, Emperor William will somehow manage to compromise us in the region of foreign politics. When we remember what happened on the last visit, of the empeior to England, how the British government, against their will and interests, and apparently without their knowledge, were drawn into the VeM exuelan mess and the Bagdad railroad embrogiio, we ran ltardly wonder at this feeling of anxiety. We feel pretty sure that an attempt will be made by the Germans to compromise us.
