BERLIN, Aug. 17.-While the Emperors
have been holding receptions, reviewing
troops and performing the decorative rites
associated with Imperialism, some moment
Gus practical work has been done by the
lance. Prince Bismarck's prolonged con-
ferences with Count KalnOky and Count
SZecheny embraced questions relating to
Servia and Bulgaria and the threatened
disturbance of amity between Austria and
Italy over the position of the Papacy.
Emperor Francis Joseph's friends hurrah
for the Pope, and his recent personal
pledges to prevent the Italian government
encroaching upon the Vatican, combined
with Signor Crispi's openly expressed re-
sentiment at Austria's interference, ap-
peared to make Prince Bismarck's efforts
toward restoring the entente difficult.
With his usual tact and good luck, the
Chancellor has arranged the quarrel at the

recent Affections, has submitted to

he threw the weight of Austria's influence
on the side of the Crispi policy in order to
stop the Popeis negotiations looking to his
leaving the Vatican. Count Dubsky, the

counted the cost of his u~nfriendly diplo-
macy toward the Vatican, balancing the
increased Centrist hostility against the
weakening of the triple alliance. He pre-
ferred an intensified feud in the Center
party to the risk of losing Italian cooper
alton.
General Beck's interviews with General
Won Waldersee and War Minister Du Yer
nois. resulted in q military convention,
which, associated with the Italian cOnven-
tion. completes the plans for naval and
military combinations in the event of war.
Although no official warrant is given for
the reported absorption of England into the
alliance, the language of the semi-otficial
press justifies the inference that the British
government has agreed that their naval
and military forces will cooperate with
those OF the alliance in REFRESHING any wan
ton disturbance of the European peace.
The question now becomes prominent
