London, Oct. 12.-News received to-

London that the powers will find a
friendly solution of the crisis which
has agitated Europe for more than a
week. Servia, it is now thought, has
fallen in line with the other states
directly interested and Is taking a more
quiet view of the situation
Confidence in Government.
The resolution of the Servian ma
tional assembly passed this morning,
which amount practically to a vote
of confidence in the government, has
taken the matter of Servia's attitude
towards Austria Hungary out of the
hands of that easily swayed body and
placed 1t with the cabinet
The members of the cabinet are
aware of the actual condition of the
affairs and doubtless will heed the
warnings of the powers and take no
rash steps ."
The powers can therefore continue
their negotiations in the matter of an
international conference without fear
of interruption by an outbreak from
any OF the Balkan states
