BERLIN, Jan. oS.-HeT Won Tisza' state
ment in the Lower House Of the Hun
garian Diet today was anXiously awaited
here. II has confirmed the conviction
that war between Austria and Russia is
accepted by both sides as inevitable. The
premicr's statement was given in care
fully poised speech, processing peace but
breathing the spirit of war. Operators on
the boerse who had waited for dispatches
from Pcsth offered international stocks for
sale freely, but the effect Of the prcmiers
speech will not be fully seen till the open
ing of business ON Monday. Private adj
vices from Vienna state that the diplo-
matte negotiations recently opened be-
tween Prince Lobanoff, the Russian en-
bassador 10 Austria, and Count Kalnoky
have been abandoned. The condition of
affairs now existing between the two gov
ernments is simply that each is lying in
wait for the first chance to strike.
Reports received at the war Office from
agents on the Polish frontier intimate n
renewal OF activity among the Russian
troops. Difficulties in the way Of trans
porting the troops are being remedied, the
commissariat has been improved and dis
case among the troops Is decreasing.
In the providences OF Volhynia and Pod
ola military acquisitions for grain and for
age are causing a dearth of provisions
among the people. At Krcmenitz eight
great magazines are being built. They
will he surrounded by Notifications. At
Doubub accommodations have been order
ed for 5000 troops. At Luck, between
Doubo and Vladimir Wolnsn, new
camp is being constructed which will hold
10000 troops. These preparations would
seem 20 indicate an intention Of invading
Galicia. Austrian war officials suspect
that the real object In view is the invasion
Of Bulgaria, and that the aim Of the Cars
strategy Is 10 entmp Austria into sending
the bulk Of her forces into Galica while
the real coup Is delivered in the Balkan
peninsula.
The interviews which W. Stourdsca, Of
the Roumanian Cabinet, had at Vienna and
FTicdrichsruhe have resulted in an entente
corlialc. II Russia enters ROumania, Aus
tria will hold the step 10 he casus bclli.
VI. Stour,lsea Is understood 10 have OBJ
tanned from Prince Bismarck the assurance
that Roumania's territory would be en-
largcd in the event of the defeat OF Russia.
Rumor credits NJ Siourdsca with sug-
gcsting solution Of the Bulgarian problem
by the extension Of Roumania 10 the
.Egcan sea, with Salonica M the capital.
This project would receive no countenance
from Austria, rs she, too, has designs for
alsa.I II a..
Salonica. The sinews Of war have been
obtained by the Russian treasury by
loan arranged In Amsterdam, the amount
Of which Is said TO be ei,5OoOO0. Herr
Won Tisza has concluded negotiations with
the Frankfort Rothschids for a loan Of

THE ASri-soCIAIIsr BILL.
The debate on the anti-socialist bill was
resumed in the Rcichstag today. Herr
