How the Northern Colos-
sus Has Grown.
HER PRES ENT PULICY
Checked in the Balkans But
Finding New Outlets in
the East.
“If the policy of the present Emperor of
the Russias seem to be inspired by their
principles than those of his predecessor; if
this policy has shown itself to be essen-
tially peaceable and disinterested in Eu-
rope; if it has shifted its sphere of activity
from the West in order to devote all its
efforts to Southern and especially Eastern
Asia,-this is perhaps due to the impres-
sions made upon the Czar duringits ex-
tended travels in the years 1890 and 1891,
while he was st-ill only the Czarovitch
Nicholas. He visited Greece,Egypt,British
India, French and Indo-China, Japan and
China. Then disembarking at Vladivc-
stock, a prowerful Russian naval station
on a bay of the Sea of Japan, he returned
overland to St. Petersburg, crossing the
whole extent of Siberia. One of his
tnveling companions, Prince Oukhtom
ski has published his impressions of the
journey in two volumes. '
“The opinions of Prince Oukhtomski
seem to reveal a new element in Russian
policy. Formerly the Russians were .in-
dignant over Prince Bi smai°ck`s reported
observation that ‘Russia has nothing to
do in the West. Her mission is in Asia;
there she represents civilization. V Prince
Oukhtomski is not far from holdingjithe
same opinion as did this envious foe of
his country. For a few parcels of terri-
tory conquered with such difficulty in the
West,what' bloody wars has shenot endur
ed? Her efforts to cbtain access to the sea,
have beenbut have successful. The White
Sea blocked with ice; the Baltic, as much
Scandinavian and German _ as Russian,
closed to her on the west by the ~_*Sound
and the Belts; the Black Sea only yet half
Russian, and closed on the southwest by
t-he: Bosphorus and the Dalrdanelles;
and the Mediterannean itself, with Eng-
land holding Gibraltar, Malta, Cyprus,
and the Suez Canal,-are these seas, so
little available, sufficient for the needs of
the expansion of the 'mighty continental
Empire that Russia is to day? In Asia on
the contrary, who knows whether by the
Euphrates and the Persian GuIf,by Afghan-
istan and the Indus, she is not going to be
able to open her way to the Indian Ocean?
_Who knows whether, already mistress of
the Okhotsk Sea, she will not become

“We know with what energy and
alternation of success and failure Peter
the Great struggled against the Swedish
masters of the eastern and southern
shores of the Baltic. We are amazed
when we reflect that a war, lasting more
than twenty-one years; a war that con-
vulsed all Europe; that brought the
Swedes into the heart of Russia and the
Russians into the center of Germany; that
brought about the creation of a Russian
army and navy under the .tire of the
enemy, and that numbered a. score of
battles on land and sea,-should have
ended in results apparently so meagre as
were those gained by Russia in 1721 at
the Treaty of Nystad. But these con-
quests gave him on the Baltic the ports of
Riga, Ravel, and Narva; they gave him
also the mouths of two rivers, the broad
Nevaand the Duna, or Dvina (not to be
confounded with the other Dvina that
empties into the White Sea). It was on
the islets of the Neva that Peter the Great
had founded' in 1703, onlands still disputed
by the Swedes and by the floods, the
capital of European Russia. St.Petersburg,
protected on the west by the maritime
fortress of Kronstadt. Yes, ‘the Giant
Czar’ considered himself amply repaid for
his efforts of twenty-one-years by the fact
that for his vast continental Empire, still
wrapped in Asiatic darkness,he had been
able to open one window in Europe. * * * *
If Napoleon I] had not attempted to re-
establish on the Russian frontiesa Polish
kingdom under the name of ‘the Grand
Duchy uf Wnrsaw,’ perhaps Russia would
not have been ambitious to secure
. possession of any former Polish territory.
` After the fall of Napoleon, the Czar
Alexander I. was obliged to appropriate a
considerable part of this. * * *_
Iienceforth the western frontier of Russia
was fixed. It has not changed since 1815,
and, to admit the possibility of a change
inthe future. it would be necessary to
admit the possibility of a total over-turn-,
ing of the European balance of power.’
` nussiifs D1-:FEAT nv rm: Banxaivs
"The decadence of the Ottoman em-
pire seemed to offer her the same favor-
able opportunities as did the decline of
the Polish-Lithuanian empire. ln this
direction, acquisition of territory promis-
ed tobe infinitely more precious. The
Russians could dream of the Black Sea,
the Propontis, and the Egean Sea becom-
ing Russian lakes; of Christian peoples of
the same religion (Roumanian andGrcek),
-and of some of the same religion and
race (Bulgarians, Serbians, Croatians,
Bosnians, Herzegovinians, and Montene-
grians),-welcoming the armies of a Liber-
ator Czar, and joyfully accepting the dom-
inion of Russia in exchange for that of
the Ottoman; ani, Bnally, they could
dream of Constantinople, the capital of
the Eastern Roman empire,Vfreed from
the yoke of the iniidel, and of the cross
taking the place of the crescent on the
dome of St. Sophia. Nevertheless, it was,
perhaps, inthe direction of the south
that Russia, in her schemes for expan-
sion, after some brilliant successes, found
herself the most completly deceived* * *All
the was undertaken in Eastern Europe by
Russia, from Peter the Great in 1711,
down to Alexander II. in 1877, have
ended, except in-Asia [and on the north
coast of the Black Sea, so far as terri-
torial expansion is concerned, in most
meagre rusults. Seven great wars have
by-ohghl; her only a. strip of Roumanian
territory between the Dincster and the
Pruth, and anotherRoumanian bit of land
in the delta of the Dunube. Even this
last morsel, acquired in 1829 and restored
in 1856, was won back in 1877 only at the
cost of vehement fault-finding upon the
part of the Roumanian people. Russia,
whose fleets have twice-at Tehesxnein
1770, and at Navarino, in 1827,-ann bilat-
cd the naval power of Turkey, have never
been able to secure even an island in the
.Egean Sea.
“Thus much for material advantages.
As to satisfaction of a moral character,
the Russian soldiers have never been
able to enter Stamboul, nor to pray in
Saint Sophia.; and as togratitude upon the
part of the liberated peoples, we have
sei n what Alexander II. and Alexander
III. could never have dreamed of."

And Greatly Assist Our

_L
Prof. Conn of Wesleyan University, in
can article in The International Monthly
for September, on “The Use of Bacteria in
our Food Prodncts"’ saysz-
“The time has passed when bacteria are
looked upon as unmixed evils. These 1if.¢1¢

MALATESTA T0 AMERICA.
Arch Anarchist Would Come if England Ex-
pelled Him. -
Loxnoiv, Aug. 27.-A statement which
has reached here frim Rome that the
. ltal ian Government has dem: nr`ed fro _i
the British Government the expulsion of
arch-Anarchist Malatesta from England
received no credence.
Malastesta. when seen by The W0i'ld
correspondent. to-night-, said:
“ I do not believe that any such request
has been made. The Swiss Government
was approached by the Italian police
when Iresirled in Geneva, but it wisely
refused to do anything in the matter."
“But” said the correspondent, “suppose
you were warned to lea re England with-
in twenty-four hours, where would you
go?"
_ Malatesta replied: “I cannot suppose
anything of kind. I have committed no
L crime in England. I get my living here a. ,
an electrical engineer. If such an order
G
America.”
Sig Minztti, Chancellor of the Italian
Y Embassy in London, questioned on the
subject to-defy, said:
“W'e hope for the best, but so far we
have received no instructions on this
head from the Government in Rome. We
have so far refrained from asking for
Malatesta’s expulsion for fear of a refusal
by the British Government. I doubt
whether the Constitution will permit the
expulsion of an Anarchist unless' he is
proved guilty of some infraction of
English law." `
