VIENNA, oct. 22.-(special to The BeeJ
Naturally the recent visit Of Hakh
Pasha, the Turkish grand vizier, and MS
long conference with Count Aehrenthai
has been the subject Of much comment
In official and diplomatic circles.
The official statement that the confer
ence had no object or Importance OF
general political nature, that It concerned
neither a convention nor an alliance, but
remained within the limits OF the imme-
date interests OF Austria-Hungary ana
Turkey, is taken with reservation.
The impression that the visit Of Hakki
had to do with the proposed entrance OK
Turkey into the triple alliance is Strength
ened by the visit OF Count Aehrenthal'
who left for Turin and Racconigi to re-
turn the visit paid by the Marquis di San
Guulano to Salzburg and Ischl at the END
of August and to deliver to King Victor
Emmanuel and autograph letter Of thanks
from. the Emperor Francis Joseph for the
birthday letter Of congratulatiOn from the
king OF Italy brought to lschl by the
Italian foreign minister.
The communicates upon the results OF
Count AehrenthaIs intercourse with tho
foreign minister and the king of Italy are
awaited with interest as 1t is presumed
that the near eastern outlook as modified
by recent developments will form the
principal subject Of discussion.
