Mm lltichlo on 1IU Amiur
London April 25 lVMilsht tho
situation appears very serious It
looks as If Kusalu desires war and as
If England will bo compelled to accept
tho ohnlloiiKO to light Even many
of tho superstitious follta point to
omens Ono of these omens Is
ttuiBalluded to by npersotl whomakes
such thluK a study
Tho only time last fall that Mr
Gladstone made hlmsolf conspicuous
soolally was when ho appeared in a
tlieaterbox ou tho nlsht tho news
canto about Gen Gordoua death Tito
juxtaposition of pleasure and oatastro
pho on tlio oocailon sytubolied Kate
mocking over the end of British pres
tlgo In Africa
Thursday morning tho premier in
vited an American actor to banquet
with him at breakfast and while tlio
meal was In progress dynatuliora tried
to destroy tho admiralty building
This was rovelry oouj lucd with dovas
tittion ami It Hluullled Destiny en
joining tho full or EuKlnnd on tlioeoft
utK common nxiria
of England that Is thoto wlio read or
gossip nt tho imbliort and know
what Is going on seem to bellovo thut
there wilt be war but thoy nro not en
thtiBlastlu over It
Tho Loudon papers do not roprcsout
tho maes of the English papers
There is not a dally In London
whloh has any olrculatlnn among
tho millions A glance will thow
that these great papers are Issued for
the politicians and traders Their
spneo contains Utile news of interest
to tho herd Now this herd Is tho
crowd that Is going to do tho lighting
If any Is going to bu done
and If you are going
among tho people that compose
It you will Unit where tlio last lingo
Ism In England Is It Ih easy to get
the herd to light All you have to do
is to mako it hellevo
KNHljANn UAB IIIIKN lNStltTKI
but you could hardly get tho herd to
furnish a reorttlt to light lor such
a thing as Is at present in
dispute between England and Kumlu
In Aftla If tho herd knew really what
It wero about Mr Gladstone more
than any premier Is a development of
the Brltislt populace Jlo has proba
bly not a single nihility with anything
aristocratic or merely diplomatic Alt
his
HymnathleH are eBBentlally

nllow the Bottdan toallp away rather
than light for it but lor Gordon
and that ho doca not consider
tho retention of India worth
UioooHt of u war with HubsIh Mr
MladHlouo has given no aign of what
he thlnku about tho preacnt atluatlon
except to Indicate that he prefora not
to light it ho can avoid it If ho de
olden to light ho will light hard and
light to win and tho witolo Kuglluli
people will be with him bocauee

Tho attitude of money In JCuropo to

Concerning thu AngloIlttsslati ques
tion the iluauclal markets may bo de
scribed aa stagnant Thoro seems to
bo an inability on tho part
of evctt tho groat cut ilnauclors to
divine tho exaotlnteutiouof England

callloans ami seem
AFUA1I io iin
for longer periods The holders of
ltusslan aecttrltleu both In England
and Qormany aro slow to part with
their Investments This reluctance
may be explained In two ways It
may bo said that the small Investors
aro Imitating tho largo holders who
they suppose aro on the Inside
and keep what they have
on some aupposed superior Informa
tion On the other hand It may he
explained that tho steadiness main
tained by Hussion stocks la mainly
due to tho refusal of the holders to
oiler freelv for fear of causing too
rapid declines Thla latter If the
true explanation would make It clear
why llustlau aecurlUe4 have been
steadier than the aerlousuca of the
situation has warranted
