2S. (Special Ivoirdou ca ble letter.) After an -unusually prolong 1 ed period of extreme tension, all indica- tions point to an early improvement in. if not a complete solution, of the; various international political preblems the nerves of Great Britain.

So far-as China is concerned this view, in connection with the speech of Mr. Curzon, the parliamentary Secretary for the Foreign Office, at Bolton, on Tuesilayj and the (reported acceptance of, the British loan, is gen orally regarded as correct. Mr. Curzon forefrlhiadowel the probable success of the loan negotiations, the achievement of Great Britain's purpose in keeping the ports free to' the whole woidd and tho maintenance- of treaty rights whereby "spheres of influence are remlered im possible." the Russian proposal of a i loan to China on the same terms as Gi-eat Bri tain was not taken seriously. It is understood that she has not the without upon her war reserve funds.

Russia would be the only gainer, while Germany' appears to have cofiie completely around to the British side. Throughyut, the situatkm has never been; so alarming as sensationalists attempted to paint it. Hence the Czar's peaceful assurance. aiwl Iord George Hamilton's' istatement in his speech on Tuelay that relation's with Russia were entirely satisfactory, will not surprise America.

Turning to West Africa, an official of the Colonel Office informs the Associated Press that the impossibility' 'of securing' witnesses from the West Cons' earlier is the reason for the in. the Paris negotiations. Thus far, -all the British demands; have been conceded nominally and. "pro-j visionally, pending the; result of the convention." But Mr. Chamberlain! is perfectly fe-atisfied that the Brit isiht claims are upheld and that the French will Ik? confined westward of a line 'prolonged from, the present Lagos-Dahomey frontier to the Niger, and along the right bank of the Niger to Say.

In the meantime, he does not propose to risk, being caught napping by a-possible adverse vlecision of tho convout'ion, ho is. pushing troops and supplies to the front ae rapidly as possible. In regard to the upper Nile the inter esting news which Mr." Curzon dropped on Tuesday to the effect that the ra ti-fications of the troatiy letwecii Great Britain and King Menolik, of Abyssinia, have boon exehtalnged and that the government hopes shortly to accredit a direot representative at the Abyssinian court, has given the greatest satisfac tion, as helping to solve the question cf the upper Nile. In the meanwhile, joung Henry Cavr endisfo. a distant relative "to the Duke of Devonshire, is preparing to start a-gajn for Eqnaitorial Africa, accompanied bv Lieutenant Andrews, eight 'Britisli officers and Mr.

and; a number of rapid fire guns. As this objective in the junction jf. tho White Nile and the Sobat river, at Sobat; the pur pose of the it will readily seen, is to cut off the I- rencli from reaching -Fashoda, which is only a short distance north of Sobat While Mr. Cavendish 'is personally defraying the cost of the expedition, it is known tliat he has leen in. frequent communication witih Ithe Marquis of Salisbury through the Duke of Devonshire, so it lis safe tot say the expedition is under government auspices.

The news from Ohristinia on Friday last that the committee appointed to draw up proposals for -the bet lation of the relations between er regn- Norway and Sweden has been unable to reach 'an agreement, indicates that the tension between Sweden and jNorway is fast ap- proaenmg tne snapping point, anu it is lntd thrift-, nn ttiAs trvntipr ovmin l.il i- tT I k( i 1 1 TK1TI1HS IK TM.T1141 nPftm-OM til. i -i i.uB,vaijiuBi both aides preparing for war The health of King Humbert of Italy ls afrain causing uneasiness, the fainting iiis Having recurreu.
