ST. PETERSBURG, May 20.-While

| tIons OF arrangements have been laid be-
tween the cabinet Of London and St

are TO be relied on.
Uneasiness AT vienna.
LONDON, May 20.-Unessiness is felt
at Vienns about the prospect OF An un.
derstanding between England and Rus

portsnt to fix the attention of Parliament,

cause Sir Stafford NorthcOtc himself had
said that general debate ut present Was

Tine Negotiations.
LONDON, May pa s.. Petersburg
CORES pondent says; Regarding the re-
cent pourpar,ers, all that seems authentic
in current rumor is that the two years
term OF occupation Of Bulgaria may BE-
shortened, the number Of troops dImin-
ished, q European commission instead Of
Russian, and new scheme regarding the
payment Of the indemnity.
A Vienna correspondent spprehends
that negotiations will not be concluded
for a long time, and that the expectation
of the Congress meeting in fortnight Is
too sanguine.
A Paris correspondent asserts that the
Czgr still insists that the BesssrSbisn
question must not be submitted to the
Congress.
