AVImt had Hnropoan diplomacy In

\iislrlu Hungary tlio niandalo to oc

/in * Is tlio Incorporation into I lie dual

\Vlipn ( Ins representatives of the
powers met at Itcrlln In JS7.S , vital
iiioy were called upon to do WIIH to re
organize Ihu pnlillcal system of I lie
I'.nlkim peninsulallial Is , to arrange
the proel.su manner In whli'h the dis
memberment of Ihu Ottoman empire
In IJnropc , brought about by Kussla'.s
onslaught , was to be elTeetcd. The
forum Imposed by liussia upon Turkey
In Iho treaty of San Klofano were leI
I e yet aside , 1ml Turkey's disintegra
tion WIIH lo lL ) accepted as an accom-
pllshod far I. Kuiimanla , Sorvln and
-Montenegro were cut loose entirely
from their Turkish mooring ; llnlga-
rln , for five centuries an integral part
'f ' tlio Ottoman realm , was erected
Into a Christian principality , tributary
tn tile jiorte ; eastern Uotiinelia was
treated an autonomous province under
a Christian governor. U'lie mandati !
v lileh Austria-Hungary received to ad
minister Itosnlu and Herzegovina
rould not very well have been eon-
eived to mean anything else than tin ;
permanent severance of those regions
from Turkish rule. ISusMaas com
pelled to forego In great part Ihu fruits
of her dearly bought victory. The
turning over of liosnla bodily to Aus
tria-Hungary would , however , have ;
been too much for IJiiKsla. to swal
low , and HO a modus had to he found.
The. oppressed Christian KoMiiaks and
Iloiv.eg"hiians , whose uprising in
3S7i" had Initiated the convulsions that
brought Itnssia lo the gates of Con-
Manllnoplc , It was agreed , could not
li allowed to remain under the Turk
ish yoke.
Could the thought have been enter
tained by the diplomats at P.orlin that
the Knropoan conrert might eventually
restore Itosnhi to the sultan V This
country had Its long tale of misery un
der Ottoman domination , asell as its
neighbor. Sen la. Us medi.u-val feudal
lords had , after the Turkish oompn'Mi ,
leaved themselves by embracing Islam ,
no that here the spectacle was present
ed of ( ho oppression of Christ inn ra-
yahs by Slavic Mussulmans. Naturally
the Itosnlak Mussulmans , the dominant
class , did not relish the Idea of belli ; , '
transferred to a Christian power. The
negotiations of the treaty of Merlin
evidently did not anticipate any des
perate resistance on their part. Yet
there was bloody work ahead fur Aus
tria. The .siibjiigalion of those bnue
Mohammedans was not an inspiring
spectacle , but Christendom looked
calmly on while Austria carried out
Iho mandate of the powers. Having
thus been severed from itf. connection
ith Turkey , Bosnia was practically
bound to remain r" , even in face of
the convention wlizned by Austria-Hun
gary at Constantinople on April IM ,
1.S7K. in which the Turkish rights of
sovereignty were recognized. The
treaty of l > erlin made no provision re
garding the termination of the Anstro-
Hungarian administration. The article
decreeing the occupation appears !
Imvo linen drawn up wllh the intent
of unni ( lug it disguised cession.
Uid Hie fminers of the treaty imag
ine ( hat ultimately I'.osniu might be
1 urned over to Servia , which .stale is
now convulsed over what was virtual
ly consummated years ago ? If so. l'u-
ropean diplomacy must long since have
lost night of this , else Hie assimila
tion of the region by Austria would not
have been allowed to proceed without
protest , lu JSSO Hosnia was brought
within the pale of the Anstro Him-
garian customs , and In the following
year compulsory military service was
Introduced. Kuads and railways were
built by the government on an exten
sive scale , stately public buildings
vvere erected , the judicial system was
reorganized , and measures were under
taken for the promotion of industry
and education. All this certainly did
not argue a trantilent occupation , and
liosnia ceased to interest liitropeun
diplomacy.
The Hosuian ualioiialily Is much the
pauio as the Servian , but only two-
llftlis of the Inhabitants belong to die
Creek church , the church of the people
of Servla. Fully one-third are Mo-
Immuiodans. They constitute the up
per and ruling class , embracing the
great landowners.
Something in the nature of this move
on the part of Austria was certain to
ronio sooner or later , p.osnla and
Herzegovina have been hitherto ad
ministered by the minister of tluuiicc
of the dual monarchy and have had nu
representative body. This had Pnally
to change , and the admission < > f the
province to constitutional privilege"
would Involve the declaration of full
sovereignty on the emperor king's part.
