BERLIN, January IA semi official
statement ia issued from ST. Petersburg
tonight with reference to the failure of
the Gar to make n speech at his New
Year reception. The assertion is made
that the Gar has not been 10 the habit
of making any political statement on
that occasion. This IS only partly true
Both the late and present Cars have
been won't to make a short address OF
semi-conversotonal character 10 the
diplomatic circle Yesterday evening
the Gar pointedly rofrained from con-
versing with General Won Schweinitz,
the German Ambassador, and Count
Won Wolkenstein Frostberg, the Aus
TRAN representative. At one pc
Rod of the reception Russian gene
rails and ministers grouped themselves
around the Gar, expecting an important
utterance. After whispering few min
utes with VI. de CHESS he turned to the
others and formally offered the congratu-
latiOns of the season. Then he singled
out three of his ministers Tor n private
talk. The incident is considered an in
timation that the war party triumphs.
Among the lists Of honOrs conferred the
Pan-slavists alone we're favored The list
of decorations leaves the impression In
Berlin and Vienna official circles that
the Gar is hopelessly under the COM
mand Of the aggressiyes.
The Moscow GdzcHe tonight says
that on the nineteenth day after Epipha-
nv RUSSIAN style) the Gar will preside
at a grand military .fctc, when he will
declare his policy. The Cars action in
choosing a military tcie as the occasion
on which to make this declaration has
increased the feeling Of disqniet.
In the mean time the frontier move
ments continue to be accelerated. Diyi-
sion after division Of cavalry pours west
ward into Volhinia. Trains loaded with
artillery and munitions occupy the rail
roads, and ordinary traffic is suspended.
At Nef, Odessa, and elsewhere the au-
thorities are buying mp provisions and
forage, and along the line Of Nistula be-
tween Demblin aud D0mbrova a host OF
laborers are engaged in constructing re-
doubts. The Warsaw police have issued
orders that all Austrians who have not
permits to reside in Poland must quit
Russian territory to-day. All Polish oil
GERS are being removed from the from
tier regiments and sent to take COM
mands in the interior.
On the German and Austrian sides the
movements are kept profound secret,
but it is impossible to conceal the fact
that there is an active passage OF troops
from Posen to the Sileslan frontier. The
first clear exposition of the situation OF
affairs is hoped for from Her lisa, the
Hungarian Prime Minister, in his reply
to the Interpolation OF Herr Hclfy. The
temper of the majority of the members
of the Hungarian Parliament IS ardontly
warlike. Unless Premier Tisza's ezpl-
nation shows that the forces on the from
tier of Galicia are ample to repel any in
vasion Deputy Preczel threatens to move
a vote of censure.
The Vienna ITchrt Zeit,Mg, military
organ. states that Russia has force of
100, 600 cavalry on the frontier SO organ
lied as to act independently OF infantry,
which is ready to penetrate into Gallcla
at moments notice to impede the mo-
bihzation OF Austrian troops. This state
ment echoes what the War Department
Of Berlin has been pressing upon the at
tention of the Austrian Department with
good effect. The Austrian War Office is
now confident that there are sufficient
forces in Central Lemburg, IN Przemipl,
and in CzcrtrOWitz to arrest the Rus
sian advance. The authorities have
dismissed the mayors opposing The
suppression OF Polish schools, and
have closed the schools and threaten
to suspend the CLERGY. The priests Of
the province Appealed to Archbishop
binder, who replied, advising submis-
sion. A section of the clergy rejected
the Archbishop's advice and have APP
pealed to the Pope. Archbishop Din
der. after conference with the Berlin
authorities, issued an order to the priests
to desist from fomentiug opposition to
the Government under penalty Of sus-
pension. This order has not Gained the
agitation. The Polish party has started
three journals with the ayowed aim OF
educating the children OF the people anu
of keeping alive Polish national senti-
ment.
Herr Windthorst intends to move hat
the Government modify the action OF
the Posen authorities in suppressing the
use of the Polish language in religious
teaching
The latest advices from San Reno
declare that the reports that the Crown
Princes mGlady had taken an uniayora-
BILE turn were not true. There were
symptoms Of recurrence Of the swell /
ing, but the trouble has been checked. /
The press has ceased 10 discuss the case.
The best-informed circles continue alb
solutely skeptlcal rs regards the posi-
bility OF a cure being effected,
NiIGred Biunt's JatI Experience.
