The fact that Vienna does not refine to discuss the points at liaue interpreted aa a happy symptom, although Russia's attitude haa been very firm lnc the be ginning of the crisis. The Russian gov ernment la anaious to negotiate with Vienna In order by such a dlicusalon to delay any act which might prove Irre parable. It ! itlll hoped here that the voice of Berlin may be beard at the opportune moment In the Interest of peace. The workmen In the Russian capital, who had been on strike for a week, today decided to resume work In order o em phasise their approval of the Russian government's support of Borvla. They made patriotic demonstrations In the streets and sang the Russian national anthem. Little Excitement la Germany. BERLIN, July 17,-The leading bankers of the German capital met today and agreed on measures to protect the stock market and to encourago the publlo not to unload securities. The meeting voted In favor ot giving credits under special terms to brokers and deolded to call for margins from private Investors only whon the market value ot securities had rreached the lowest point consistent with safety. The military element In Germany calmly awaits the outcome of the Inter national crisis. It la stated that no orders have been Issued to the army In this connection and that the customary fur loughs to a portion ot the soldiers In order that they might help In the field work at their homes during the harvest have not been Interrupted. One of the newspapers prints tho state ment that the Gorman high aea fleet had been ordered to concentrate In home waters, but the German admiralty says no such Instructions have been Issued. The general publlo in Berlin takes a somewhat calmer view of the situation aa time passes without the occurrence of tho dreaded catastrophe of armed conflict and on reports of the proposed mediation of the pwr between Austrla-Hungary and Bervla, Officials declare no word has come from 5t.

LONDON, July 17. Glimmers of hopo flickered In 'the darkened sky of Euro pean politics today and the wish was general that the efforts ot the great European powers to avert a clash ot arm which might Involve many nations would t successful. While all tho powers were preparing for possible eventualities, their state men. with BJr Edward Grey, the British foreign secretary, at their head, were endeavoring to bring together tho gov ernments at issue with a view to media tion. At tho Servian legation In London, the view was held that some Improvement bad taken plaoe in the situation and this wax attributed to the Influanc xrcolad by Staaala. Alts fleonrevltcb. tha first secretary said; "We have compiled with everything that does not impair our sovericn rights. We hopo that Austria-Hungary In the lnterosts of peace will rccognlso that consideration U due to an Independent state and so ivert war. If, however, Austria-Hungary want war. It will have seen that we aro prepared to accept It in the Interests Of the dignity of our state." Tho fact that Austrian ambassadors abroad were willing to discuss the con troversy with foreign governments and especially with Russia led to the belief that an outlet for the deadlock would be found. Tho stock markets or London and the European capitals still displayed an panicky feeling, although It wa. not as pronounced as on Saturday. Grey Invites Conference, Blr Edward Grey Invited tho govern ments of Austria-Hungary, Bervla and IlUMta to suspend operations ponding the result of his proposed conference, which would be hold In London. His suggestion is that tho French, Ger man and Italian ambassadors In Lonlon should confer with him In the endeavor to find a means of solving the present difficulties. Until late this afternoon he had not yet received complete replies to his proposat. Blr Edward Grey, In announcing in tho House ot Commons the steps to be takea to bring about mediation in tho Austxo Servian controversy, said: "I understand that the German govern ment is favorable to mediation In prin ciple as between Russia and Austria, but to our particular proposal to apply that principle by mean of a conference, th' aermnn government has not yet replied." Blr Edward concludod by expressing the oulnlon that the failure of, these efforts to bring about a eettloment would lead to "the greatest catastrophe which could befall the concert ot Europe and its con sequences would be Incalculable. Anstrlit-IIaiiararr Waiting. It was said this morning that Austria- Hungary would not movo its force against the Servian capital until tomor row, which Is confirmation of a state ment made by the Austrian ambassador in London yestorday that Austria-Hun gary desired to give Borvla further time to consider Its reply to the ultimatum from Vienna. Outside of Austria-Hungary and Ger many, Bervla's reply Is regarded as a very fair one, aa It grants all the de mands which a sovereign state could grant In the meantime all the nations or ku- ropo aro making preparations for war. Even England, which Is credited witn the determination to stand aside unloss It should be forcrd Into the conflict. Is getting Its warships ready. The leave which la generally granted the crewa after the annual rnoblllxatlon of tho fleet j tor exercises has been cancelled and the vessels are to be kept on n war footing. They brgan coaling yesterday with the expectation that they would be ordered to the North sea, which would be Eng land's danger point in the event ot a European outbreak. Stock KxchftiiK Demoralised. Tho London Stock exchange which opened halt an hour earlier than usuat, was comparatively calm at tha opening, the opinion prevailing that was would be averted. The market, however, soon be came panicky and on tho arrival ot the bulk ot the brokers prices began to slump In all directions, the demoraliza tion of Saturday being repeated. British consols, which opened nominally at 73H. dropped to 71 and then by quick stages to Mi, or nearly t below Saturday. German, Austrian and Russian bonds went down from 1 to 1 points and prac tically tho whole list followed the ex ample. This was largely itue to com pulsory liquidation on local and conti nental accounts before the settlement. which commenced for general securities today Canadian Paclflo prices were the great est sufferers, the continent selling them heavily. They were offered at KOH. or V below parity, a loss on the fortnight nf something like ttO. Several aotive Ameri can securities fell from IS to 115, whllo Rto tlntos lost 10 points and Grand Trunks from I to 8 points In the same period.

I merely Informed tho Jury that I place at the disposition ot tho court authentic documents signed by Gaston Calmette, stipulating In tho clearest possible fashion the conditions under which the Figaro would work in the interests of tho Hungarian government. Every Frenchman will realize today what would have been the effect ot that work. Thoso document are of unlmpeachabla authen ticity. They wero given me by Count Karotyt, chief of the Hungarian radical party." AUSTRIA CHARGES BAD FAITH (Continued from Page One.) was, howover, little change In the situa tion and tho more optlmlatlo feeling was largely based on the belief that the Ger man emperor, who returned to Potsdam today from his cruise In northorn waters, would throw his influence toward a peaceful settlement of the dispute. Another factor In favor of a peaceful arrangement waa that the Austrian am bassador at St. Petersburg had shown willingness to discuss matters with the Russtan foreign minister. Ttnssltt ia Aroused. ST. PETERSBURG, July 26. A decree waa promulgated today forbidding publi cation tor one year ot detailed Informa tion concerning tho army and navy.

NEW YORK STOCKS AFFECTED Market Opens Lower, with Heavy Selling by Europe. PRICES HIGHER THAN ABROAD Two Hundred Thousand Shnren Are Sold Dnrina; "Flrat Hoar More Gold EnnnRed for Ship ment to ISarnpe. N.BW YORK, July CT.-Tho local stock ' market opened nmld scenes of great ex- . cttcment today. Conditions In continental Europe, growing out of the Servian crisU , and tho Irish aUvtlon, caused severe losses on foreign exchanges. The gravity j of the situation may be Judged from tho fact that tho Vienna exchange Is to re- I main closed for several days, while tho Austro-Hungarlan bank rate was adj vanecd without warning. Prices held tar better than In London, where quotations for Americans were ' down from 2 to almost 7 points. Canadian Pacific, which yielded over 6 points In j London, opened here with a iota of 3U J points. Declines of 1 to 2 points wcro recorded In tho Initial trading by Denver j active stocks. The market continued feverishly throughout the first hour, with further weakness In Canadian Pacific, which extended Its lass to 4 points. Leading bankers were In active com munication with tholr European corre spondents, and the tenor of the advices received from them offered little ground for encouragement. It waa the general opinion, however, that moans would be found to localize any conflict between Austria and Bervla. More than 200,000 shares changed hands in tho first hour, and of that amount fully one-fifth waa credited to Europe. London, Paris, Berlin and other centers continued to sell here long after the close of their markets. Sentiment waa made more pessimistic by further gold engagements of $3,009,004 for Paris and London, making a total of over $12,000,000 on this, the third movement of tho year, and a total of about $100,000,000 since January 1.
