BERLIN, March 24-The situation be-
tween the central allies and Russia remains
unchanged. The only alteration arises
from the visit of the King of Roumania to
Vienna, which has resulted in a definite
treaty under which Austria pledges herself to
resist any violation of Roumanian Terrific
ry. Leading officers of the Roumanian ar

The Emperors decree of March 81, au-

visits and listens to the reading of official
reports. He does not move out of rooms
that are beyond certain temperature, and
he cannot receive a public deputation, it
being feared that any disturbance might
precipitate a crisis. DR.. Mackenzie does
not leave him more than half an hour at a
time The feeling against DR.. Mackenzie is
abating.
COUNTLESS FALSE REPORTS.
In letter written by him to friend, a
doctor in Stettin, he says: 1T is impos-
sible for me to rectify the numberless false
hoods concerning my duties toward the
Emperor. You can understand that the
stories about tracheotomy are entirely

success of the operation, which was effected
under my pressing demand, being convinced
