A dispatch from Vienna to the telegram
avs that the English note relating to the
agreed upon by the three

usal to accede thereto that the powers
we're substantially agreed that the original
tote of Count Andrassy went as far as it
ould without al Infringement of the P0rte's
overeignty; that sufficient time had not
,een allowed for the execution of the &C.
epted reforms; that Montenegro breaches |
f neutrality had prevented the pacifica-
ion which the powers considered necee- |
ary to the execution of the reforms; that |
be proposed military disposition of the |
'urks and the insurgents seems to England
premium for renewed hOstilities; that the |
lgantic system of gratuitOus relief pro- |
osed would be beyond Turkeys ability |
0 grant, and would be seriously destruc- |
i've of the morality, thriftiness and indus
~ of the people; that the proposal to take |
lore effectual measures at the end Of q
wO months armistice is q sufficient en-
engagement to the insurgents to continue
he rebellion, and an inducement to
Montenegro to persevere in her breaches
neutrality, hoping thereby to obtain an
ccessiOn of territory, and that the proposal
D bring war ships into the Dsrdanelles
mounts to proposal to violate the treaty
