His Lordship: I think the cout not always bound 13 note objections, Clearly I take it that counsel not entitled to lasist that all their objections shall appear on the minutes of the court.

But to return to the question of the value of bluff. The young Emperor of Russia's one idea is peace. The fame of his father is that he kept the peace in Europe, and the son, partly from his own inclination, partly out af filial love and respect, la equally determined not to have a war In Europe if he can help it. Traditionally bound as he is to protect the Christiane in the Esat, even though they do not profess the Orthodox cread, he has allowed any number of Armenians to be massacred, because interference, with the status quo would probably mean the downfall of the Porte, and it would be almost impossible to settle the distribution of the Sick Man's estalo without a war.
