The Albanian leaders are furious with the Porte for Its bad faith, and the government, alive to the probable results of its questionable attitude, is now arousing the fierce wrath of the Alanian Moslems by distributing arms to their Catholic compatriots, and thus endeavoring to sow discord among the religious lements of the population. But the Albanians, beins racially one, do not allow rell^ons creeds to di vide them. Four hundred prominent Albanians hwve fbrwarded a memorandum to Constantinople, requesting their rep resentative there to inform the gov- emmeiit that nnleaa it changes its policy and appliea measures of relief immediately, they wfll quit the country in a body &nd take refiige In a neigh boring state.

London, Dec. 83>—A^ost on the of Christmas the people' of England are ordinarily thinking only of Turkey and plum-bpuddin^ especially wh^n no general elecilon is in 'sight, but al though we are outwardly very calm today, there 'are, however, quite a few of us who are worried and who will live in state of hear untile the holidays have passed without a German invasion somewhere on our long exposed coast line. The dan|:er. is of course, purely imaginary, but ever since the alleged Qerman 'spy. Captain Grant, was caught at Portsmouth a couple of weeks ago and It was revealed In court that Germany had been anxious to find out hpw many men ifnd how larfre supplies of coal there wOuJd be in-our naval ports, during Christmas week, any number of people, scared by the sensational press, have 'become quite cbnvinced that the Kaiser intends to pay us an unwelcome visit during the holidays and the government Is being rpuMly denounced because It has granted furloughs to a very large per centage of officers and men from the various home defence squadrons scat tered along our coasts. These fears are of course absurd, for not only would It be Impossible for Germany to mobilize her army and navy without the knowledge of Eng land, which maintains a host of spies in every Germa^ seaport, but from a' very reliable source at the imperial court m Berlin know that the Kaiser has been very much upset at the man ner ih which the majority of the Ger man newspapers commented on Sir Edward Grey’s speech on Anglo-Ger man relations. Personally the Kaiser is exceedingly anxious to be at peace with England, not only on humanitari an but diplomatic grounds. Please forget.” he is reported to have said to an intimate friehd on one occasion, “that my friendship for Eng land is a personal one. My relationship to the British Rpyar Family would alone suffice to make me wish that my jpeople and the. EZnglish iteople should be friends with ohe another.” It is the extreme nervousness of the masses, both here and in Germany due to the machinations of the politi cians and a certain part of the press that endanger the friendsijip of Elng- land and Germany for the govemahents of both countries take a Yery hopeful view of the situfttion and Sir Edward crrey .was right when he said ft few days ago in a spe;eeh: There are some friends of mine who are always tapping the barometer every’five minutes to see if it i»' ris* ing—a very natural Impulse. We have all felt that impulse when after a pe riod of Indlflferent we«.ther we have a longing tor an improvement, but what I belieive to be really desifable now is that we should luive a few weeks, of diplomatic repose. “If we can devote ot^rselves during the next few weeks to our usual Christmas enjoyments, and our inter nal political questions and not tap the barometer too often I think there' is every hope that when we next begin to examine it we may find the sky is clearing and the bftrpmeter Is rising.” In the meantime tiie consbrvatives, who had nothing but praise for the secretory of foreign affairs at the time of his speech, are beginning to change the tune. In a recent political article Jilr, Philip Snowden writes: “The only possible way of averting a great European war 1s to bring about a better understanding with Germany. This is clearly impossible so long as Sir Edi«rard Grey is at the head of the foreign office. ‘*Hls own increasing stjspiclon of Germany dl8q,nalifles him from under^ taking the work of bringing about 'bet ter relations between .her and our selves. No unprejudiced person can read the narrative of what happened between Germany ,and our foreign pfQoe in regj^-to Matwjco without being impressed by the candor^of the German government, and by the un founded suspicion that fills the mind of Sir Edward Grey and Influences all his actions.’* Concessions In . CaWe Rates. •Mr. Samuel, British postmaster general who scnne montt^s ago. said that he fully endorsed the words of Lord 'Roseberry, that If British stat^ men want to bind the empire ctosely tbgether their first and main mws must be by the cheapest mi^M of bom- munication, has not fulfilled the tattons, which he* held but to the Iin- perial conference in the ^s^coeed* ing. In reducing cable rates both for press messages and for private mes sages nearly by half. The further ed, cession, ifrhich has been made by the American Western Union Compaq on its own initiative, Is very much ap preciated hwe. .... Successor to Rabbi Adler.
