FEARS OF ISOLATION.

The Gensen delegation repeatedly and vainly drew attention to their migising in this connection. Then they learned that the consenting powers were separately negotiating with Russia and received information leading to the conclusion that so agreement not taking acoust of the just claims of Germany would shortly be reached.
