IMPORTANT CONSULTATION Al 'coNsrAST1-
U'!f SopLE. ."'TEf' '5'I"f Il
The Posl says that II has reason to be-
lieye that an, extraordinary Cabinet
Council, which was held yesterday, will
prove Of great Importance toward a
speedy pacific solution Of the conflicts in
Ottoman Dominion. Concerning this
council, a dispatch TO Reuter- merely says
that conditions Of peace. were discussed.
A special to the Times from Vienna,
however, says that the council was held
for the purpose Of reconsidering the re9o-
luton previously taken by the Cabinet
and which should have been presented TO
the Powers on Monday. The correspon.
dent says this reconsideration at the last
hour is undoubtedly due to thesteps taken
by the Powers at the initiative OF England,
Elliot, the British ambassador was in posi-
tion to know the resolution Of the Porte to
decline an atmistice and came forward
with conditions. which were not likely to
be accepted as basis. for pacifcation or
lit 10 be discussed. He, Of course, in-
formed his. Government. Two days In
teryened-Thursday, the day oftheinyes-
titure Of the Sultan at Mosque Of Eyaub,
and Friday, the Turkish Sabbath-when
no official business is transacted. These
two days were taken advantage Of by. the
British Cabinet to make, in conjunction
with the other powers, one more effort
to represent 10 the Turks the gravity of
the moment, and II possible 10 induce
them to reconsider tie resolution they
had taken. On Saturday morning all
the ambassadors had received instruc.
tions to Join England in addressing new
and urgent representations'to the Porte,
which was done. 1t was not one Of those
merely formal steps taken rather to full
fin the duty than with any belief in its
possible efficacy. Although each Embasa-
sador made his communication simply,
the language prescribed by their instruc.
tions was almost identical and represented
most earnestly and impressively the dan
ger TO which the Porte has exposed the
Empire, If itrejects the opportunity Of
fored to put an end 10 the war, and that
no one could save Turkey from the possi- |
BILE effects OF such a fatal resolution.
Language like this, supported as II was
with all the authority Of the great guar
anteeing powers appears MOTTO have been
without effect the answer that was
about to be given the powers has been
delayed, and the resolution has
been taken under fresh considera-l
lion. There are no indications what
the result OF these renewed deliberations
may be, but all accounts from. Gonstanti- |
nople concur that the impression produc-
ed has been deep one. In the meantime
the Turks have again commenced active |
operations in the field. The tone Of the |
official bulletins from Belgrade do not in |
dicate confidence in Tchernayetf's ability
10 hold his position, and the recall Of
Horyativich from the Turkish frontier,
where 1t had been declared that he could
defeat the Turkish campaign by inter-
rupting their communication with Nesch,
is evidence that Tehernayef is hard
pressed. 1870 -. -.Itt TX.
