'l‘he approaching intcrviow. indeed, may easily be or epoch-making impor- tance to all mankind. Civilization could ask no greater boon than :1 full under- standing between the British King and German Emperor. ‘ 1 One great peril still threatens. Any day Russia may be plunged into revolu- tion. The problem of the attitude of the two powers on her western border is a grave one; A conference between the King 'and Kaiser on the eve of this enn-rgency is the greutest safeguard to peace that could be given. It is under- stood that the interview will be on the Kaiser‘s initiative. This is a hopeful augury. They will have other things to discuss also. Prominent among these is the attitude of the powers toward the Mohammedan unrest. This dangert could be entirely eliminated by a com- plete agreement between these two men. The policy of each. however, has been directly opposed to that of the other.‘ King Edward has striven, thus far with consummate success, so to combine the European Powers that Germany should find it impossible to gain any considerable advantage from Russia’s impotence. Emperor William’s efforts have been aimed chiefly, al- though in most cases indirectly, against British interests. The result of this diplomatic duel has been to preserve thas far the slatus quo in Europe. Coming Conference Takes Added Inter- ' est From Russian Crisis. A London despatch says: The en- nouncement that King- Edward and Emperor William are to meet within a few weeks is the best possible news that could come to the political world at the present time. It. signifies, at least, the mutual desire of the two most powerful rulers in Europe to bring to an end their long personal and political estrangement. which has been the most dangerous feature of the crisis created‘ by the destruction of the balance (1‘ power.

Party disscnsions seem to have further weak~ encd the insurgents. for ,the various Socialist and and revolutionary cliques who participated in the demonstration proved incapable of forgetting their pet quarrels at the most critical moment. The correspondent. describing the Cronstadt mutiny as a complete failure, says the garrison. as a whole. has not forgotten the hitter lessons of the Octo- tber mutiny, and is not in favor of another at the pl‘esent moment. The agitators apparently did not realize the situation. They persuaded their more devoted adherents to rise on the chance that the garrison would follow. Alto-11 gether. the revolutionists displayed ant astonishing lack of stratogical and lac-t tical capacity. Their abortive attempts will probably only drive the Govern- ment towards further reaction.

Committee for agitation in the army and several other Socialist agitators have been arrested. London, Friday, Aug. 3.â€"The St.~ Petersburg correspondent of the Times says that the mutiny at Sveahorg ap- parently broke out prematurely. owing to the arrest of the marines, who were preparing a general naval mutiny to begin simultaneously at Svenborg, Cronstadt and Sebastcipol, Having broken out prematurely, it failed to develop according to the plans. The rcvoiutionists hoped by a demonstra- tion at Svouhorg to attract a large number of trooiis from St. Petershurg to Finland, and thus create more favor- able cundilions for a mutiny at Crons- Gogernment’s Reforms Will bably Be Abandoned.

Thursday morning (Ii-own Attorney McCrimmon was noti- fied that a dead infant had been found in the outhouse of Stonehouse. on Barnes Street. The Crown Attorney no- tilled the police. who at once went to the place. when the child was found to be alive and crying: it was imhedded in filth. which was not deep enough to bury it. The police at mice removed it and it was placed in the care of a. trained nurse. The mother and father were charged with the crime. which they both strongly denied, stating that the child was not theirs. and that they had been only married two nmnths. but prnat will be brought forth that the wo- man is the mother of the child. A bruise. was found on the infant's head. which 10on as it it had been struck. The husband is it) years old and a car- punter. A St. Thomas Couple is Charged \ 11!- the Crime. A dospulch from Thomas sms: Com Stunehousc. (wed 26 wars. “ire sf He was a practical banker and [or a long time was the secretary of the Mo:- cow Land Bank. He was a recognized authority on finance and was regarded as the first in all financial and agriculâ€" tural matters. M. Herzenstein was a leader in all of the Zemstovo move- ments. and. furnished them all of their financial data. His family had renounc- 0d the Jewish faith and become Ortho- dox Russians several generations ago. He occupied a prominent place in Mos- cow society and was a' popular idol among ilie peasants. M. Herzenslein was of Jewish deâ€" scent. and very wealthy. His attacks on the Minister of Finance in the Low- er House of Parliament attracted wide- spread attention. He supported the (‘onsliiutional Democrat scheme fox-land appropriation. - Three hours prior to the murder a 'phone message was received at a news- 1tape1‘pfllce from Moscmv. asking 'or news of M.

A despatch from London says; The revolutionary outbreak of Russian sail- ors and gunners combined with the Finnish lied Guard. was provoked largely by the activity of the Grand Duke Alexander Michaelovitch. who for two months has held a Special command (I the Russian forces employed in pre- venting gun-running through Finland. The Russian occupation of the Aland islands. and the restless movementsol a Russian torpedo fleet. arbund the Flu- nish coast. both angered. through the heavy work, the men employed in it. and greatly embittered the Finnish re- volutionaries. The Russian officers had an almost hopeless task. One of them says that in the garrison artillery that isspread among these islands there is only one officer to 280 men. He him- self says he has seen some of his men only once in two months, when they came to get their pay. The Grand Duke Alexander has not gone to the fleet at Svealaorg. He remains in his Summer residence. The correspondent points out that the Red Guard. which is a strange combin- ation of the 'l‘eetotal League and [he Worlunen's Mnitia, is assumed to be acting purely in sympathy with the Bus- smn revolution'Lsts.
