DANGER SIGNALS.
EUROPE ARMING
THE POSSIBLE ARMAGEDDON
LONDON, Oct. 15. Europe is stealthily preparing for a- possible Armageddon. Russia-, Austria, and Germany are secretly mobilising. The Russian Imperial Bank has instructed its agents on the Austrian and German frontiers to remove specie to Moscow. France is getting her fleet on a war footing, and the British Cabinet is quietly arranging to mobilise the army at a moment's notice. The fleet is already practically in a condition for active service. M. Poincaire, Premier of France, is still attempting to prevent an outbreak of active hostilities. The Continental press •adjures Europe not to get involved in the conflagration. It is reported that M. Sazonoff, the Russian Foreign Minister, has been threatened with the loss of his office, owing to his failure to maintain peace.
