DIPLOMATIC INTRIGUEs.

LONDON, Jan. 29.-The Berlin CORE
spondent of the Daily .NeUs says "The
czar is making efforts to bring about the
former friendly relations between Russia
and Germany"
The Russian correspondent of the Morn
ing Post says the visit of DeGiers to Vienna
resulted in complete understanding be-
tween Russia and Austria on leading pc.
litical questions; also in an arrangement
of differences regarding the navigation OF
the Danube.
The Emperor William has approved the
plan of Gen. Won Moltke, chief of staff, fol-
strengthening the Notifications at Kiel.
Austrian newspapers are busily discuss
ing the significance of the visit of De-
Giers, Russian foreign minister, to Wen
ma. They are mostly inclined to attribute
to it considerable importance. They
point to the length of his interviews with
Count Kaluoky, the Austro- Hungarian for
eign minister; Prince Henry VII. of Russ
the German ambassador TO Vienna; the
archdukes the emperor, and others, and
the circumstance that at about the
same time the Grand Duke Nicholas
had an interview with Bismarck
at Berlin. A majority of the special dis
patches from the continent to London
newspapers state that the prevailing opin-
ion is that whatever was conceded by
Count Kalnoky to DeGiers was conceded
with the full concurrence and approval OF
Germany.
The Neue Freie Presse of Vienna. says:
Preparations for DeGiers' visit to Vienna
for the settlement of various questions was
negotiated through the Austrian ambas
sador at ST.. Petersburg. According tc
this account it was agreed that Servia and
Montenegro should for the
present be satisfied. Russia will
support Austria at the London con-
ference on the Danubian question
and at Constantinople concerning the
question of the junction of the Austria
and Turkish railway. In return Austria
will make no objection to the eventual
junction of Bulgaria and Roumania.' y
The same paper hears that DeGiers in his
interview with Bismarck at Varsin
touched upon the entry of Russia into an
Austro-German alliance, but met with re-
fusal. While DeGiers was at Vienna he
had an interview with priest of the Rus
sian church, who passes for one of the best
informed men, regarding the Paris Star
agitation, and is supposed to have heard
his views and not neglected to give him his
official views on the agitation, with a view
to correcting any illusions that the Pan
slavs may cherish. Not single journa
succeeded in interviewing DeGiers while
he was in Vienna. Two days before hii
arrival messenger from st. Petersburg
brought detailed instructions to DeGiers
The Standard sums up the effect of the
visit of DeGiers to Vienna, the most i'm
portant point of which is that the porte il
granted respite.
BERLIN, Jan. 29.-The conservative
journals adhere to the belief that the visi
of DeGiers to Vienna is to consolidate the
relations of Austria and Russia. TIL,
Vossische Zeitung is of the opinion tina
neither Germany nor Great Britain ap
prove the junction of Bulgaria and Rune
lia, and it strengthens Russia, whereas Rus
sia's weakness is regarded as the bes
guarantee of peace.
ROME, Jan, 29.-The publication of thu
letter of the emperor of Germany to TIT
pope has caused discomfort at the vatican
It is supposed that its contents would b.
kept secret for a while.
