the patient Is improving rapidly. There
is likely to be serious relapse during the
next six weeks, when milder weather
tempts TO outdoor indisoretions, but the
International physicians in charge ought
to be competent to handle any oompGca-
tons that may arise.
Tho revival OF the suggestion Of gen.
eral conference is strongly supported in
many quarters. New dangers might
arise therefrom, but at least much time
would be gained. Neither Servia nor
Montenegro can indulge In anything pro-
vocative while such tribunal is pending
and Austrisns dare not invite Russian in
tervention and the general European con-
fIct which any violation on her part OF
the equities OF the situation would bring
on.
1t still remains true that Austria would
welcome aggression by Servia and Monte
negro, which would give the dual mon
archy reasonable excuse for Striking.
But 1t is realized at last. even at Vienna.
that anything short Of overw whelming
justification for such course would
plunge her into a war with Russia which
even the Cars Government, pacific as are
its motives. would be unable to avert.
once this situation arose a European con-
1ayration could not be averted.
II is upon this Austrian appreciation
oi the real perils In the path of her am
hilton that the chief security for peace
tests. and II is TO Germany that the prin-
cIpal credit is due for forcing the truth
upon her ally. The Kaiser's Government
Las Ioyally refused to make any formal
representations at Vienna in association
with other Powers, but Il has done inest-
n'able service for peace, nevertheless, by
Frivately interpoeing restraint upon the
rash and INSCRIPTIONS politicians who
'arsely control tro-Hungarian affairs.
II seems now to be confirmed that Russia
has consented to associate herself with
he other Powers in making representa- |
lions of the friendliest description to Ser !
via on condition that similar amicable !
Intervention shall be made at Jenna after
he receipt Of Servias reply. 1t is too
early for any opinion as to whether this .
mediation will be followed by reference ,
OF the disputed points to European con-
ference. 1t is believed. however that /
such action must lead Austria at least to
disclose what concessions she IL willing
10 make TO her small neighbor, and thus .
he door might be opened for direct ne7o-
liations.

actions which meet only the ordinary
claims OF humanity cannot rank as heroic.
