CbU Preparing la tlflp Slam Against

Bzbl.15, Sept 11. The foreign office
here is informed that the, Chinese iror-
erument is preparing a protest against
ranee s new aggressions ia Siatn and
bat given orders that the Chinese
squadron of ironclads be made ready
to sail at a moment a notice.
I Ar.irt, ipt. I.'. The irritation of
Franco against England seems to in
crease day by Jay. Tirst the govern
ment was urged to assert itself against
tngland a interference in tiio Siamese
question. Tlien it was claimed that
at tho opening of the chamber the
government must make the power of
France' felt by raising tho Egyptian
ghost again, and now the 1'roncn press
has found fresh oanne to attack Eng
land, and is angrily harping against
the obstacles w hich, it Lt claimed, the
Niger company has placed in the way
ox rrcnen explorers.
There are people who are unkind
enough to say that these attacks upon
tho part of the French press directed
against England serve, intentionally
or unintentionally, to turn the at
tention of the people from the really
irritating views, sham battles and
visit to frontier fortresses now being
indulged in by the Uerinaa emperor
with toe erown prince of Italy at his
aide. That is really where the shoo
pinches, and it will take more than
the rislt of the Itussian fleet to Toulon
to dissipate the angry reflections
which ire now agitating the thinkers
or r ranee.
Great preparations are already being
maae nere ana at louion lor the re
ception of the visiting Russians, and
tne political drums will undoubtedly
be beaten the loudest in the effort to
drown with Franco-Russian glorifica
tion the sound of that Uennan defiance
by the Herman emperor at Metz, when
he boldly asserted that Alsace-Lorraine
would be held forever by the
Uerman sword.
Those words hit the bulWye in
Germany and in France, and the shot
echoed around the world, No amount
of denial from official or unofficial
sources will alter the fact that the
peace of Europe ia In danger, and that
matters are becoming so atralned that
it will soon be a case of "shut up or
fight," to use a vulgar expression
which, however, sums up the situation
in a few words.
Frnnchrnen are both astonished and
alarmed at the Uerman emperor's
popularity wun tne people of Metz,
cars burg and larlaruhe.
