RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA.
4 Calm which Diplomatists Believe to be
Deceptive.

Deceptive.
BERLIN, January "A calm, which
official and diplomatic circles know 20 be
deceptive, prevails ior the moment. The
Austrian and Russian governments have
exchanged assurances of peace aspirations,
to which nobody attaches the slightest
Importance. The only actual change
in the situation tending towards peace Is
active resumption OF negotiations between
Count Kalknoky, the Austrian Foreign
Minister, and Prince l.abanotl, the Russian
Ambassador at Vienna, for the settlement
of the balance of the power in the Balkan
peninsula. This mitigates the crisis and
removes the danger of war at least for the
present, Int 1t does not modify any Of the
essential differences between the two gov
ernments. The negotiations are expected
by both sides to end in an exact definition
OF the respective demands, such aS hereto
fore has not existed and from which may
be obtained valid excuse for war
In the meantime, the Foreign Office here
holds aIOOi from the negotiations, which
are recognized a. leelers hy Russia toward
other demands
