Friendly Exchanges.

The visits of the Italian and German
ambassadors to the foreign office on Sat
urday and the friendly exchanges between
their governments and Great Britain. ac-
cording to officials who We're interviewed
today. have helped TO smooth the path
of those who are undertaking the negOti-
atoms. Not the slightest indication. how
ever. has been given as to how the di-
Vergent views had by the powers with
respect to the proposed conference of the
signatories Of the Berlin treaty are TO be
reconciled. More favorable news from the
Balkans. including the reported action of
the Seryian national assembly in voting
against war, has further strengthened the
belief that there will be no eruption of
the Greek government In reply to the
British prOnOuncement that until a legal
status has been restored in the Island
of Crete, Great Britain cannot hold out
hope that the Cretan aspirations will be
granted, points out the difficulty Of the
position of the administration at Athens,
which in no way prompted the Cretans
10 declare union with Greece. The Greek
government expresses its willingness that
the powers should decide the question of
union between Crete and Greece, but at
the same time il declares that there is no
means within its power of forcing the
Cretans to restore the legal status.
The Greeks. the reply states. viii con-
tinue TO act with moderation, although II
cannot understand why the powers can
not consider the Cretan affair at the same
time IL takes the Bulgarian and Austrian
questions under advisement.

nectiOn with NJ. Iswolsky's negotiations
with the British foreign office that Great
