retary, when he formally announced
In tile bouse or common* till* after

Blr Edward defined the object of
the ambassadorn gathering a** "an in

tion which I*, of course, an indica
tion that the European powers are
noi yet sure that a iiolutlon of all the
difficulties* I* In sight "
Commenting upon the •Kuropeun
situation the secretary of foreign af
fairs said:
"Hopes and enxictles have varied
from day to day and may continue
for -ome time. It I* difficult to say
anything without causing undue pen
sltnl.tu or raising hope* which might
subiciiuently be disappointed. The

of the powers arc amicable, the dip
lomatic situation 1* faroruble and
ihe anxlbty Is lest Monte untoward
or unforaeen incident oerifr.
"The consultations of the umbos
mdors are to be Informal and non
committal. This is. of course, an
Indication that the European power*
art not yet sure that a solution nr
all the difficulties Is In sight.**
“On the whole", rtlr Edward con
tinued. "the fact that all the powet*
hmva agreed to coats fo closer quar

an evidence that there Is no one
among them who b**ll*ve* such a mi

••When once the conversations In

a table, they will be In closer touch

any one drifting apart from the oth

tion of the government to facilitate
an exchange of views between the
powers, especially on points most di
rectly affecting tj»e interest of any
of the great powers concerned nnd
that the conversations would not

Grey added that, should a formal
eonferelce be found opportune or
necessary, it would presumably meet
In Paris, as the suggestion first em
anated from Premier Poincnlre or
France.
