A CONFERENCE SUGGESTED
Between Crown Heads in Reference to the
Geneva situation.

IBy Ango-American cable to tho Dispatchl
VIENNA. March PIT Is reported that
Count kalnOky, the Imperial Minister. has
suggested that conference he held be
tween Emperor William, Emperor Francis
Joseph, and King Humbert as the only
means of allaying the anxiety prevailing
in Austria and Italy in regard to the situa-
ton arising from Prince Bismarck resig-
nation. II is hoped that Emperor William
will agree to attend such conference,
and that he will bring with him General
Won Capriyi, the new Chancellor. Count
kalnoky and Signor CrIspi, the Italian
Prime Minister, would also be present at
the conference in case Chancellor Won Ca
priv attended. The Austrian Government
considers THAI Emperor Williams declina-
ton to attend such conference would
cause trouble and uneasinoss throughout
Europe. Especially would this be the case
IN the Balkan States, IN regard 10 which 1t
is reported that the Governments of Rus
STA and Germany Will make an agreement
AT the expense of Bulgaria.
