New Phase of the Eastern Question.

dicated by the following from the London 7imes's
correspondent at bucharest: Austria is placing her
agents on the saionica and Mitrovitza railway and
making requisite preparations for another advance
toward the 4Egean sea. Germany Is preparing to
make the most of her position between the other two
members OF the Triple Alliance, and England and
France are being amused by Greek discussions and
proposed arbltrations. Greece however, thoroughly
understands the existing situation. She knows per-
fectiy well that unless she forces matters to an i'm
mediate crisis, in which France and England may
help her she will never govern Tbessaly and Ephrus,
their existing state until the three emerOrs have
ranged their little differences and their future pro-
convulse all the continent This Will explain why
Austria and Germany are so anxious to restrain,
at least delay the military movement In Greece, and
also why Greece refuses to listen to their apparently
temperate cOunsels The Greeks know that the pres
ent moment Is one Of life or death to them; hence
they desperate In their resolution to strike before
