London. Oct. 9th-A despatch from Belgrade
states that the Servian Government has is
sued 9 proclamation declaring Austfia's
action to be 9 fragrant violation of the treaty
of Berlin, effected unilaterally by force
majeure, for selfish reasons. without re-
gand for the feelings, rights or inter-
esss of SerVians. and Seryia can be So
tlsfied only by restoration of the status
established by the Berlin Treaty. or. if
this is impossible, by compensatioas for
the loss of privileges accorded .A.nuder
that treaty, which has been scrupulously
observed by Servia, although contrary to
her interests and modified by others. The
patriots criticize the proclamation as not
vigorous enough to represent the national
sentiment, which is for war rather than sub
missien.
A telegram from Cettinie says mass meet
ings are being held throughout Montenegro
to summon the Government to cooperate
with Servia for the protection of all Seryians.
Advlces from Sofia state that Bulgaria
regards Turkeys answer as insulting, and
the situation Is strained. The Bulgarians are
unanimously against Turkey: they are willing
to make compensation but unwilling that
Bulgarian affairs should be settled again
Without consulting Bulgaria.
Constantinople dispatches state that the
Greek Minister has communicated to the
Turkish Government the action taken by
Crete, assuring Turkey that the Greeks were
not cognlzant of it, and hoping that friendly
relations would continue undisturbed.
1t is, however, feared that this is un-
likely, as Turkey has ordered four w~arships
to proceed to Samos, the Greek Island pay
ing an annual tribute to Turkey, and mobil-
lied three army corps.
Turkey is less DESTROYS for reassembling the
congress Of Berlin since she received England's
hint that il would perhaps complicate the
situation, and may regard it as preferable to
accept accomplished facts, demanding com
pensation and the execution of other articles
favourable to Turkey.
kilograms from Rome report that Italy
requires Austria to bando special rights
over A~ntivari, Montenegro's only seaport,
in consideration Of her participating in
the task of reconciling the interests of the
signatories of the Berlin treaty.
Vienna dispatches say that war with Ser
via is recognized as a possibility, King
Peters tenure of the throne not being strong
enough to resist thessclamour of his subjects.
and Austria is reader for an adventure than
before the recent events. All the bridges
near the Servian frontier are patrolled, and
Jour monitors are concentrated at Budapest
