COMMENTS ON THE TERMS.
AGREEMENT FAVOURABLY RECEIVED.
THE KING EULOGISED. (Received October 30, 9.22 a.m.) London, October 29. The agreement with Russia, pending a final settlement, has given lively satisfaction at Hull. The Standard's New York and Paris correspondents say that the credit for the solution is attributed there largely to King Edward's influence, firmness, and tact in placing the lan 7 above arms, conscious in the justice of Britain's cause. The German newspapers praise Britain's moderation and calm confidence. The Standard nevertheless says that the compromise is profoundly disappointing. It protests vehemently against a justly-aggrieved party and the aggressor going to an international and mainly foreign tribunal on a footing of equality. The punishment of the guilty will be doubtful and slow. The Tsar has given instructions to prevent similar catastrophes, but incompetent navigators! are not controllable 1000 miles distant. The Times says Mr. Balfour's announcement will be received throughout the whole Empire and the civilised world with deep relief and earnest approval. The Daily News and the Telegraph are (squally congratulatory.
