Moon Associated Press Report,I
LONDON, May ~. The Times Paris
correspondent telegraphs a private tele.
gram from London, which states that
England rejected the detailed conces-
sions offered by Count 5chonvalofi, who
thereupon declared Russia's readiness
to submit to all questions raised by the
treaty to the sanction of the powers
known, and that ON Hatur day Germany
was informed OF a welcome solution
and was requested to Immediately
issue invitations.
The Times In its leader says, what.
ever may be the case as to the details,
we have season to believe that our
Vienna correspondents information
was we'll founded. The invitations to
Congress will not be issued until expla.
nations between England and Russia
are somewhat further determined,
but there ia no reason to apprehend
failure on such points. The prelimis
nary requirements Of England at all
events on the whole, have been con-
ceded by all the papers that mention
the subject, and deny emphatically
that there are any discussions In the
cabinet.

Night Associated Press Report.I


Accounts received from every capi-
tai In Europe concur as to the main
feature of the political news, namely,
the certainty Of an early meeting OF
the congress, but considerable anxiety
Is still apparent about the military
preparations and situation before Con.
stantinople. The attitude Of Austria
especially creates apprehension at st.
Petersburg, and these will not be al
layed by the occupation of Arkolos,
which is Austria's first overt demon
stration against Russia In the settle-
ment OF the eastern question, Russia
having promised the island to Servia.
Servia Is certain not to get 1t unless
the congress awards It to her.
Great secrecy Is still maintained at
st. Petersburg about the progress Of
negotiations. The unofficial press, no.
tably the new Times, the Galos and
the Ruskimer, are beginning to attack
the peaceful utterances of the Agence-
Russo and Journal de st. Petersburg.
The Galos calls on the government to
abandon its reserve, and tell Russia
whether the report about yielding to
England's demands are true or false.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Times suggests this sort Of pressure
may be convenient for Russia just now
In helping her to resist further Engs
lish pressure.
The Agenee Russo says the general
impression Is the prospect is favorable
for peace. The Austrian occupation Of
the island Of Adokalch has received
the sanction of the powers because It
tends TO obviate difficulties touching
the navigation Of the Danube.
Official news from Vienna confirms
the announcement made In the Paris
Journal des Debats yesterday and to.
day, that Russia has consented to lay
the treaty OF San Stefano before the
congress; that all powers have agreed
to the proposal, and invitations have
been issued to them to attend the con-
gress which will meet In Berlin the
! 18th Of June. The political CORES
pondence has substantially the same
Information.
