A dispatch to the Now York Her ald from Paris says: Tho Temp says that Lord Charles Rcrcsford's Idea of a quadruple alliance appeals to tho Imagination or many in tho United States and then goes en: 'Nothing Is farther from our thoughts than to pretend that when such a conception has terminated In the public mind, It has utthosamo time entered Into International poll I tics. "What, however, must be noted on one hand is that In splto of apparent provocations, the United States, so unjustly susceptible with regard to other powers, displays great patience towurds Germany, and, on the other hand, that lu spite of certain actions in tho bay of Manila and Samoa, Ger many has no Idea of entering Into n struggle with thoiowerful trans-Atlantic Democracy." Tho Temps then concludes that for France to direct her policy with tho Idea of an European coalition against the two Anglo-Saxon powers would be to enter heedlessly Into a most dang erous undertaking, and says Franco has not yet nrrived at tho point when she can write down voluntarily Alsace-Lorraine In her pr tlt and los column by consenting to play the game or her enemies against liberal nations, which, put It In plain lang uage, seems to mean that tho Temps counsels a rupproachement with the United States through Englund, rather than fruitless coquetting with Germany.
