ed to have suggested summoning the

ment to discuss the ELECTORAL reform
bill and the subsequent issue
of writs for new elections un-
der the proposed law providing

Emperor-King and a portion of the
Coalition party, but it is understood
that the followers of Count Andrassy,
the former Premier. and the Clericais
were opposed to the suggestion.
Late this evening it was reported that
peace in Hungary seems to be assured on
the basis of postponing the military de-
mands for three years. and that should
the negotiations with Kossuth and Count
Andrassy be successful a Cabinet. with
Count Andrassy as Premier, will be ap-
pointed on April and elections will be

Considerable surprise has been caused
by the smallness of the imperial loan,
