VERY LATEST OF fHE THEORIES.
THE SPEECH OF PREMIER TISzA
WELL POISED,
Russtn Preparing Great Magasines and
Camps-Austrta Thinks Roumanis
VIII BE the Objective Point.

Copyright, lsss, by the n. Y. Associated Press
BERLIN. January 2s.-Herr Won Tisza' g
statement in the lower house OF the Hun
garian Diet to-day was anxiousiy awaited
here. 1t has confirmed the conviction
that war between Austria and Russia is
accepted by both sides as inevitable.
The Premier's statement was given in a
carefully poised speech. protesting peace
but breathing the spirit of war. Opera
tors on the Bourse who had waited for
dispatches from Pesth, offered interna-
tional stocks for sale freely. but the
effect of the Premier's speech will not
be fully seen till the opening of business
on Monday. Private advices from Vienna
state that the diplomatic negotiations
recently opened between Prince Loba-
rolf, Russian ambassador to Austria,
and Count Kalnoky have been aban-
doned. The condition of affairs now
existing between the two governments
is simply that each is lying in wait for
the first chance to strike.
RENEWED ACTIVITY.
Reports received at the War Office
from agents on the Polish frontier inti-
mate a renewal Of activity among the
Russian troops. The difficulties in the
way of transporting troops are remedied.
The commissariat has been improved
and disease among the troops is de-
creasing. In the provinces Of Volhynia
and Podolia military acquisitions for
grain and forage are causing dearth of
provisions among the people.
MAGAZINES AND CAMPS.
At Kremnitz eight great magazines
are being built. They will be surrounded
by Notifications.
At Doubno accommodations have
been ordered for 80, 1000 troops. AT Luck,
between Doubno and vladimir Wal
inski, a new camp is being constructed
which will hold 10000 troops. These
preparations would seem to indicate an
intention of invading Galicia.
AUSTRIAN VIEW OF RUssIA's OBJECT.
The Austrian war officials suspect
that the real object in view is the iu-
vasion of Bulgaria, and that the aim of
the Cars strategy is to entrap Austria
into sending the bulk of her forces into
Galicia while the real coup is deli vered
in the Balkan Peninsula.
THE RoUMANIAN QUESTION.
The interview which Stourdza, of the
Roumanian Cabinet, had at Vienna and
Friedrich have resulted in an entente
cordiale. II Russia enters Roumania
Austria will hold the Alps to be a cdsus
beUi. Stourdza is understood to have
obtained from Bismarck an assurance
that the Roumanian territory would be
enlarged in the event of the defeat of
Russia. Rumor credits Stourdza with
suggesting the solution of the Bulgarian
problem by the extension of Roumania
to the Egean Sea, with Salonica as the
capital. This project would receive no
countenance from Austria, as she, too,
has designs for the enlargement of her
territory to Salonica-
THE SINEwS OF WAR.
The sinews of war have beer obtained
by the Russian treasury by a loan ar
ranged in Amsterdam. The amount of
which is said to be 4,500, 600 pounds
sterling. Herr Won Tisza has concluded
negotiations with the Frankfort Roths-
chiIds for a loan Of %, ,0OO, 900 fiorins.

FOR ILLEGAL VOTING.
Three More such Arrests made
here Yesterday.
ONE YOUNG MAN DISCHARGED
And it is said will Sue the Marshal
for False Arrest-The other two
held for the U. S. Grand
Jury-Lots of talk Caused.

Three more arrests were made yester-
day under the United States law for
alleged illegal voting. The warrants
were sworn out before United States
Commissioner Forbes by Deputy Mar
shal shallcross, who afterwards served
them himself, except in one case out OF
town. The first arrest was that Of jack
son j. Freeland, who is charged with
voting before he had been in the county
the required sixty days. Freeland is
employed on one OF the electric street
cars, and was arrested at his post OF duty
and arraigned before Mr.. Forbes, who
held him in $500 bail for the United
States Court. Superintendent LOTUS, Of
the street car company, went on his bond.
The next arrest was that Of Henry
BachmanD, OF Centre Wheeling, who
was accused OF voting before he was Of
legal age. He proved that he was q
years old last September, and was al
once discharged. 1t was stated on good
authority yesterday that he had declared
his intention TO sue the United States
Marshal on his official bond for false ar
rest. 1t Is not 10 DE believed that proper
care was exercised in this case in swear
ing TO so grave a charge which was
without foundation.
The third arrest was that OF William
Myers, who is track hand on the Bal
timore & Ohio railroad and lives near
Board Tree. He was held for hearing
as he says he can prove that he is q
years old. s
These numerous arrests, all OF Repub-
licaDs, have caused a good deal OF very
emphatic comment. This was the more
natural that there is one case of noto-
riOus character Of an illegal vote in the
Eighth ward by Democrat, the facts Of
which came out before the Board OF Com
missioners, on which there has been no
proceedings and the talk took new turn
when yesterday the Register said that il
the Republican managers knew Of illegal
votes, as they claimed, they should
cause the arrest OF those who had vio-
lated the law, 'as tue Democrats are
doing" This was the first intimation
the general public had that "the Demo-
Gratis" were causing these arrests. 1t
was supposed to be done by an officer Of
the Federal Government under his
solemn oath, and not by an agent Of the
Democratic party. The public suGges-
ton that these arrests are for u partisan
purpose and that the machinery Of the
Federal law is in the employ of "the
Democrat" came first from the Demo-
cratic organ, and it created not little
public indignation yesterday.
