RUSSIA ALARMED SY AUSTRIA

VIEWS OF FOREIGN OFFICE
Action Regarding Railread Vielatee
' Agreement Entered' lirteaneV ' '
May Cauee Trouble.
St Petersburg Baron von Aebren
thal's reiteration of the determination
of Austria to build a railroad' through
Novipazar, a connecting link for the
Austrian line through Bosnia with the
Turkish line to Salonki, and the an
nouncement by the German foreign of
fice of its financial support to this
plan, have left no illusions here re
garding the fate of the agreement
looking, to joint action in the Balkans,
negotiated by Emperor Nicholas and
Emperor Francis Joseph at Muerzes
teger in the autumn of 1903, which
was the ground work of 'the subse
quent program of reforms in Mace
donia. The attitude of the Russian foreign
office as learned through an inspired
press is that the agreement, which is
.regarded as already violated in spirit
by the Austrian foreign ministers' ef
forts to extend and consolidate the
Austrian sphere of influence by a pri
vate bargain with the sultan for the
construction of the railroad, should be
abbrogated. Russia, is now left a free
hand to work out its own policy in the
near east. Negotiations are still be
ing conducted to the end of inducing
Austria to withdraw its railroad
scheme, but no hope of their success
is held out on either the-Austrian or
the Russian side. The principal efforts
at present are being devoted to ar
ranging a new grouping of the powers,
it being thought here that Russia and
Great Britain might enter into an
agreement for joint action in Mace
donia and that these two powers would
be supported by France and perhaps
by Italy.
The defection of such an important
power as Austria, which on account
of its geographical position, shared
with Russia the leading role in the
efforts to settle the Macedonian prob
lem, renders the outlook dark. Since
the seriousness of the Russian oppo
sition to Austria's plans has become
evident, hints have been thrown out
from Vienna that Russia and Italy, as
the powers most directly interested,
would be allowed in the way of com
pensation to construct railroad lines,
Italy one through Albania and Russia
a line from the Danube to the Adriatic
sea. Both powers, however, decline
to accept this proposal.
NAVY'S CRITICS ANSWERED.
Admiral Converse Reports

Fighting Condition.
Washington By direction of the

to the exact state of our naval ships,

the design to reassure the American
sailors as to the quality of the weap
ons with which they must go into
battle.

The Kind You Have Always Bought
As He Understood It.
A youngster who has been living
with his grandmother in Xutley, N.
J., was brought to the city for a visit
a short time ago, and while here was
taken to the theater for the first time
in his life. In one of the scenes a but
ler comes on the stage and announces,
"My lord, the carriage waits.'
When 'the little fellow returned to
his grandmother's home he started in
at once to describe to her the play ho
mad seen.
"Aad then, Granny," he said, la kw
excited description, a big man witk
gold buttons on his coat came oa the
stage and said: 'My God. there'a a
mack outside." N. Y. Times.
