Foreign Relations Improved.

LONDON, September 18. Mr Haldane said he was o/ the opinion that the Unionists would pull themselves together early enough to prevent the Liberals remaining in office for a decade, and he thought any Government had been long enough in office after five years. Under Earl Grey the relations abroad had improved. Those with France were closer, and he had brought us into friendly relations with Russia, notwithstanding the latter's difficulties. Moreover, our relations with Germany were better than they were a short time ago, and beginning from next month Germany would commence to withdraw nearly half her troops from South-west Africa. He also said that the Liberals had sought to meet all legitimate Labour grievances.
