ITALY BALKS RUSSIA- -London, July 8. An Odessa corre-q epondent writes that considerable oom-" ment was occasixjued by the mysterious sailing xt a reserve - steamer with? a3 battalion of Infantry and six machine fc guns and 'her return some days .later: with the men and guns still on board. There is reason to believe the " troops were intended to seize Rah'eita,-e smallj sultanate on the Red eea, over which -Italy claims suzerainty. - Recently four Greeks were arrested;-. in Raheita by Italians and they proved to be Russian "emissaries. The Italians' thereupon seized the goverment, an-, tici patting the Russians by only a few " days, the news reaching St. -Petersburg -in time to' recall the steamer to Odessa, for persistence then in the attempt -would have meant war. Italy will now. It is believed, boldly annex Raheita, BRIGHTER OUTLOOK IN FRANCE. Paris, July 8. The grospects for the reetofation of sanity, hot-to say justice, V in Prance never seemed so bright.
