The War Cloud
(Per Press Association.) London, Feb. 4. Mr Balfour said the world would welcome the acquisition by Russia of a commercial outlet in the Pacific, and British commerce would indirectly be a gainer by it. A rumor is current that Coercina measures will be taken against Turkey in enforcing reforms in Armenia. Great Britain favors the project but Russia opposes on the ground that it is likely to delay the intended payment of indemnity by the Porte to Russia. This action by Russia is looked at as confirmation of the reported alliance between Russia and Turkey.
