ton of the Russian army OF the Vistula,

freight traffic on the railway lines from the
Polish frontier southwark has been stopped,
the roads being required for the transporta-
ton OF military stores. Large hospitals are
being established. All the physicians in
South Russia have been invited to enter the

tends to concentrate five army corps OF forty

THE HITCH IN THE CONFERENCE PROJECT.
The Vienna correspondent Of the Times
explains the hitch in regard to the confer
ence. The Porte considered England's pro-
posals vague, and instructed Musurus Pa
sha, its Ambassador in London, to ask the
British Government what it really meant to
propose. England refused thus TO forestalI
the work Of the conference. Turkey con-
.sequentiy declined to participate In it. It
Is to be hoped, however, that this rejection
Ia not final. The invitation to Join the con-
ference will be repeated and urged upon
the Porte.
THE MEETING OF THE CONFERENCES ASSURED.
LONDON, November 16.-The Times says,
editorially, we believe we may now accept
it as certain that the meeting Of the confer
ence is assured, despite the warlike prepa-
rations Of various Powers. We believe all
the Powers desire peace. The Porte must
be convinced that II it stubbornly refuses
TO give guarantees 1t withstand alone.

Warsaw indicates an impending Polish ris.
Ing. The Government has posted placards
