It has been reported, but apparently from no au thoritative source, that the Alliance lad been renewed without alteration lor twelve years. It would appear that the recent demands of Italy against Turkey, followed by Italy's declaration of war, were assented to by the Alliance. For many years Great Britain, while not a party to the Alliance, was closely linked with It through apprehension of French and Russian aggressiveness, but later became disquieted by the growth of the German navul power and in 1902 adopted a decided c'. nnge of policy, with n view to seeking In the Ualance of Power greater securi j against In vasion, i In pursuance of this policy (Sreat Britain entered Into an agreement with Franco in 1904 and with Russia In 1907.
