pvt aversion much longOklt all de
pends on the Archduke YiatA Ferdi
nand's success in carrying oi bVjian
for a greater Austria. If by any Xai
billty Austria were to develop Into
more formidable nation than Germany
it would immediately" be England'scue
to hate and handicap the former Just
as It has hated and handicapped Ger
many for the past f ew years. Maybe
the islanders would even. And It to' their
Interest to grow friendly with ,the now
bitterly execrated Kaiser Wllhelm. And
herein lies the explanation of all Eng
land's European likes nd dislikes.
The Knglish enjoy imagining them
selves defiant of the bold, bad and pow
reful; helpful and generous to the down
trodden and virtuous. Their j motives,
however, are Jiot as high or pure or
holy as they pretend and 'perhaps
really believe. They are simply pursu
ing a well defined and tolerably success
ful line of diplomacy. Their statesmen
floured It out long ago that the best
thing for England to do was to be ever
lastingly pounding the biggest or the
continental powers, while helping the
little ones to annoy and injure the great.
Their : theory was nd is that this
would prevent any other nation from
growing strong enough to make them
trouble. Simulating friendship for some
.weak and struggling country, it has been
their custom to boost their protege until
It began to look threatening, ndthen
to knock It down again.
European TtaaSlf Squabbles.
When France -was the predominant
European power England , fought the
French unceasingly. Presently Spain
commenced to grow aOarmingly. Eng
land promptly stopped fighting France
and took on Spain Inntead. The Span
ish strength waned and, the English re
sumed their campaigns against France.
This was quite a while fisro. Russia was
a more recent peril. England planned
and intrigued and fought -against the
czar until Japan shattered his power.
It was Germany's turn next As the
kaiser built up his army and navy, ex
tended his commerae and began reach
ing out after colonies, England s Jeal
ously and dislike of him increased. No
Englishman doubts that the two coun
tries will have to light it out sooner or
later unless Austria should crowd Ger
many off the censor of the stage and get
into the- limelight Itself. . . -
The Archduke Francis Ferdinand, who
will be rler of Austrian-Hungary when
his aged and rapidly falling uncle.
Francis Joseph, dies, hardly takes the
trouble to conceal his determination to
make his country overshadow Wllhelm s.
If he manages it the entire situation
will change In a minute. It will be
England against Austria, v.. ., .
Wllhelm Is not a bit friendly, to
Francis Ferdinand's plan, either. He has
always been ambitious to add Austria
to his own dominions and for the arch
duke to relegate him to comparative
obscurity would certainly make him the
latter"s moral enemy. - This would exact
ly suit England a row ready made for
the new power and the shift in the
balance might reasonably be expected
ito find Germany with no stronger backer
'than its present bltteaest rwal. t
The St Petersburg. censor was taking
a day off, apparently, when Minister
Hart wig, Russia's diplomatic represen
tative at Teheran, got back to the oxar's
capital on leave of absence recently. The
.minister was in a talkative mood. A
'reporter dropped In on him at one of
lils most communicative moments. Be
tween what the minister said, the re
ported wrote, and the censor allowed It
to get out of the country. A commo
tion has been stirred up in England that
promises to precipitate the long threat
ened Anglo-Russia clash over the Pers
ian situation In very short order.
The situation is like this: England
and Russia are both interested in
'Persia. Both would like to galn'control
ofer it Internal disorders have made
It possible recently for either one of
them to interfere In the shah's affairs
any time, under pretense of keeping the
peace and then to hang onto the country
long after peace had been established.
Finally they agreed to maintain order
jointly,- so that each would watch the
other. Both promised to take no unfair
advantages. England professes to have
kept its part or me cargain. missis
has been accused of ' encouraging the
shah to do indiscreet things calculated
to start a rebellion, which would give
the cxar an opportunity for a "grab"
Russia being nearer to the scene of
action than England and consequently
better able to rush troops there in a
hurry.
Oxar's Purpose Questioned.
It was accused of this by everyone
but the members of the English cabinet
They insisted that Bt Petersburg was
playing fair. The man most; suspected
of misadvising' the shah was Colonel
LlakhofT. a Russian officer who com
mands the Persian cossacks and prao
tically runs the entire army. The sus
picious people said Lalkhoft was at Te
heran as the czar's emissary. T-he czar
said he was there In his Individual
capacity. The Encrllsh cabinet accepted
this assurance. The suspicious people
gugarested that the cxar recall tJakhoflf
to Russia as an evidence of good faith.
The cxar ignored the suggestion. So did
the English capibet. - - '
Now Minister Hartwla announces,
through the reporter who visited him in
St Petersburg, that the colonel Is a Rus
sian military agent, that he takes orders
from the commander of the cxar s cos
sacks and that everything he says and
Arm in Persia be is told to say and do
by the Russian army authorities.
. Minister Hartwlg didn't like - th
arrangemnt It interfered with his
own diplomatic negotiations, and It was
in the form of a complaint that he told
It to tho reporter. The English cab
inet ministers haven't expressed them
selves yet concerning the Hartwig In
terview but the newspapers are wild
over it and numerous , members of
parliament are full of auestlons they
expect to sslc 'Foreign Minister Grey
concerning the Persian situation. They
probably won't get to it before New
Year's .feress. but when they do start
the foreign minister appears likely to
have hard -work convincing them that
Russia hasn't -completely fooled him.
English officialdom Is worried to de-'
cide whatto do: 'With General Lord
Kitchener when his tHm as commander
of the British mllitaryMorees In India
expires next year. - his jorasnip s own
Idea evidently was that Jie was slated
for a big Job- In the war-f flee. This
seemed so natural a place to. put him
that it was all but announced on gov

war office heard, only Just in.' timtk
what was threatened. Such a gallop
ing of functionaries to others htgner
up, of prayerful and almost tearful in
terviews with cabinet ministers, such
a multitude of conferences, such a pull-
Ins- of strings ana russing with wires:
"In the name of humanity, of mercy.
of precedent," wailed all the war of
fices - In chorus, - aon t sena mat mon
ster here.", . .
The outcrv was natural enough. The
war office has been known for genera
tions ss the great asylum for high
born incompetents and idlers from all
over England. Whenever his impecun
losity has rendered it necessary to
provide for some utterly worthless in
dividual whose family connectlops made
it undestrawe 10 leave mm 10 starve.
e vacancy has always peen round in
the war office. Kltcnener is not. only

Too Strenuous for Job.
He's abusive, too. The things he is
credited with having said at various
times to offending - subordinates
wouldn't do t all for publication. Now,
what wouldn't that kind of man be
liable to do in an Important post in
a place , like the British war office?
It looks as If the office's terrified in
mates were going to keen him out how
ever. Otherwise why the semi-official
announcement that he Is to be made
a field marshal and put to work on a
plan for concentrating all the empire's
land forces home and colonial on a
single spot In, the event of a war great
enough to need them bunched together
In cne.blg army?
The Administration doesn't pretend
it thinks the plan .will ever be carried
out- It's necessary to keep the troops
scattered to look after the varlons col
onies. It Is on the navy that the
country depends to bring It safely out
of any great conflict. It Is a plan
that it is hoped will Interest Kitchener,
however, and It will certainly keep htm
out of mischief in the war office.
Physicians In St Petersburg are
sending out the worst kind of scare
stories concerning the certainty of a
fresh cholera outbreak In the sorlnr.
They predict an epidemic of far greater
violence than last season's and declare
that, considering now far east it trav
eled this year, it can hardly fail to

What they particularly comblain of Is
that the sanitary precautions taken
