Show Euclaud's Alii 111 de. London, 2. Tbe eflect in England of the Kuisian successes has been to renew the discussion about Bntisb interests. Anli-Runsiao newspapers like the Daily Telegraph and Morning Morn-ing Post are greatly excited and call for instant preparation to protect the interests and honor of the country, which lie under a most direct and deadly menace- They find the cznr'u proclamation a revolutionary maui-fsslo, maui-fsslo, indicating a determination to annex Bulgaria. Tbey add this to the reputed intentim of Russia to claim Armenia and the Turkish ironclad iron-clad tleet as indemnity and enforce the free passage of the Dardanelles, and declare that such changes would rob England of every real rampart (or her eastern empire. It is also noticeable notice-able that papers of quite a ditlerent class are beginning to exmbit uneasiness. un-easiness. The Economist calls atten tiou to the probability that if the Dardanelles are to be kept closed against the Rueaians by lores England Eng-land must do it alone, becaune the other pewers are not sufficiently interested in-terested in that, reault to justify the anticipation of their cooperation. The Observer declares that the time has arrived when that government should know itself and be prepared to enforce its views when the necessity demands. The anti-Turkiah papers are very guarded in their comments and devote de-vote their attention chictly to the discussion of Austria's position posi-tion and attacking the ministry for not taking tbe opportunity to make a further declaration ol their policy. The Dily News yesterday declared that it was a common report that the demand lor an extraordinary credit of which so much lately is heard, has not - been abandoned, but will be ' brought forward later on, and perhaps per-haps in a somewhat modified form, If the ministry could get over some internal obstacles to perfect unanimity unanim-ity the demand would be made at once. The News believes that if the position of England remains unchanged un-changed until tue prorogation and the ministers an J parliament are Hcattered in the country, Lord Bea-con Bea-con i he Id and those ot his colleagues who think with him may commit the country to a policy which would have been accepted if there had been a tree and timely communication between tho government and the house ol commons. The Saturday Review sums up the political situation as lollows: So far as as concerns European Turkey, at the end of a costly campaign, though it may perhaps have baon victorious, Kuesia will depend on the permission of Austria to eflect a permanent conquest con-quest in Turkey. A later dispatch ayn: It is understood under-stood that the wise counsels of the Marquis of Salisbury, Earl of Carnarvon, Carnar-von, Mr. Croes and others have at last triumphed over the party of action. The sultan has now little chanco of material aid from England. |
