FRANCE'S DIPLOMATIC SERVICE.

PARIS. Nov. Il.——-Tllere is now rea-
son to believe that M. Nciidoff. until
recently the Russian ambassador at
Rollie. will be appointed to Paris In
succession to Prince (Iiiroussoff. made
ambassador at Rome. thus settling the
doubt as to the choice being between
M. Miii'avieff. the Russian Minister of
Justice; (‘ount (‘usslnL the Russian
ambassador to the United States; M.
Nelidoff and M. Ii'lsvolsky. the Russian
minister at Copenhagen. it was at first
expected that M. Miiravleff would be
sent to Paris and later t‘ount Cassini
was strongly favored: biit. the incident
of the cancellation of the Czar‘a visit to
Rome appears to have influenced M.
Nclidoff‘s transference from Rome. to
Paris.
As considerable feeling was aroused
at Rome in consequence of the giving
tip of the visit. it is expected that a fur-
ther sequel to the incident will be the
transference of the Italian ambassa-
ilor at St. I‘etcrslrut'g. (‘outit Morra ill

fer involves a promotion. and. inciden-
