TRIPLE ENTENTE.
STRONGER THAN EVER. WAR-TO-THE-END AGREESIENT. LONDON, Sept. 7. The newspapers consider tliat when the time comes for a. settlement the Allies' declaration will assure a lasting peace. The ''Daily Telegraph" fully anticipates that Germany in the course of the war will attempt to break up the Ar.glo-Franco-Russian Alliance, and adds: "In the event of Austria collapsing, as is likely, in utter ruin, Germany may generously offer Russia same of Austria-Hungary's non-Ger-manic- provinces, or others, and if the tide or battio moves decisively in lier favour oji French soil, she may offer France- lenient terms in order to concentrate her forces against Britain and Russia. The declaration calls for worldwidenCss, and the Allies stand throughout- as indissoluble comrades." The "Times" remarks that the Alliens declaration only states certain t.icts uliicty arc known to overv one, except the German Foreign Office, nevertheless the declaration stems as timely to the rest of the world as it seems untimely to Germany. It moreover assures Belgium and Servia that if assurance is needed their more powerful Allies will care for their interests as if they were their own.
