What is Germany's Limit. Not one, among the other belligerents, unless it be her an fortunate and misguided ally, Austria, is suffering as is Ger many. Even for Franes and Belgium there is hope, at least, bat for Germany each successive day darkens the horizon. She in alill defiant but it is clearly a defiance born of sheer deeperation —a forlorn bops in the effort to obtain the best terms possible the kind of defiance which, whon met with determination to break it, will collapse woefully in the end.

Failing this, the struggle may be expected to develop into a war of attrition, protracted perhaps, but with the dice loaded against Germany.

Japanese Politics.
The precedent ret by the incresaas of the Army following. Japan's two former wars is not likely to be neglected on this occasion. There does, however, remain a section of politicians, who, whatever their reasona, ure, not willing to accept without pro- lest this change of tono on the part of the Government, and it in they who have now forced the Ministry to appeal to the country. Whether they will be successful in the general election remaios very doubtful, and even in the event of success it is difficult to see what working substitute can be offered in the present Ministry's place. If the very men who most hotly opposed the Army increase have now been converted to its favour, it is hardly likely. Įthat any other statesmen will be found to carry on the Opposition. Japan just now seeme politically to have reached a critical place Her younger politicians are with- out the weight and influence to command success, and her older politicians are too much bound by the past to approve of any policy save that which bas brought Japan. to her present position.
China Mail,
Attitude of Italy and Roumanias
The Milan correspondent of the New York Giornale - Italiano writes with a sense of grief" thatThere is becoming man- ifest in the country an unmistak able tendency to abandon neutrality. Such a tendency, indeed, is growing more vigorous from day to day in an alarming manner, because it may strongly influence our Government, in which, saevery knows, moveral members favour & war against Austria ... The Giornale d'Itaka (Rome) and the Messaggero (Rome) openly demand that Italy enter The the war at once. Corriere della Sera (Milan); after a series of articles gradual- ly demonstrating the dangers of neutrality, now comes out with an article ölaiming that the moment has arrived for abandon- ing neutrality and participating in the confliot."
The Socialista, however, are for peace, though the editor of the Milan Socialist paper Avanti wan forced to resign for indorsing this policy.The Ozervator Ro mano: thus states the Clerical position. The great majority of the country supports and encour ages the work of the Government |with its unanimous consent and its full adherence, regarding with manifest aversion any altempt initiative that tends to disturb fatally compromiss this enlighten- ed and eminently wise work.
