CONFERENCES IN VIENNA
Austrian Kaiser Closeted with
His Military Advisers.

Vienna. Nov. 21-Empcror Francis
Joseph held a series Of important audi
ences at Schoenbrunn Palace to-day.
He received successfully Archduke
Francis Ferdinand, the heir to the
throne; the chief Of the General Staff
of the army, the Minister for War and
finally Foreign Minister Berchtold and
the Hungarian Minister Of National
Defence. The first and the last audi
ences each lasted more than an hour.
The banking committee Of the Polish
Club has issued notification to the
Poles in GalIcia strongly advising
against runs on the banks, which be-
gan yesterday at various places. The
committee expresses the conviction, on
the strength Of explanations afforded in
authoritative quarters, that the fears
Of a general war are unfounded and
that a strong opposite tendency is
noticeable in political quarters The
signs that peace will be maintained.
says the committee, are multiplying
daily.
The "Politische Correspondent
learns that the Austrian and Servian
communications regarding Balkan ter
ritory were begun by Servia, which
through its minister at Vienna, at

Vienna Cabinet replied, giving It's views
through the minister at Belgrade, with
out asking for a counter declaration
Therefore, the reports that a reply was
demanded of Servia within a short

NEW PEACE INSTRUCTIONS
Feeling in Constantinople Is
Now More Optimistic.

Constantinople, Nov. 27.-The Coun-
ell of Ministers has telegraphed new
instructions to the Turkish peace dele
gates. A more optimistic feeling as a
result Of the negotiations prevails here
tonight.
According TO an officer Of high au-
thority who has just returned from
the front, the Turks at the Tchataldja
lines now number 102, 900 and will
soon be increased to 10000 At the
time Of the first attack on the lines the
Turks numbered not more than 10000.
The worthless men on the lines will
be sent back to Constantinople, their
places being taken by the troops now
being brought up. The new recruits
are considered of high value, as they
are unbeaten men. Those from the
Black Sea, 10000 strong are the pick
Of the army. All are now well fed.

.BULGARS IN SAL0NlCA
AT ODDS WITH GREEKS
Haste of Victors to Reach and
Occupy City Unfavorably
Commented On.

Salonica, Nov. 27.-The Bulgarian
seventh division, 10000 strong, remains
in the garrison at Salonica and en-
canned in the environs. The Bull
garians insist that no agreement be
concluded by the Greeks respecting the
retention Of Salonica which is a mat
ter for diplomacy to decide.
They contend that they fought their
way into Salonica, the capitulatlon OF
which to the Greeks was arranged with
the Turks. il is understood, in man
ner not at all satisfactory to the Bull
garian officers. The Bulgarians VIII
post sentries along the entire road from
Salonica for several miles TO guard
against Greek attacks.
Bulgarian accounts say that the
Greeks. who We're in hurry to Ieach
Salonica, weakened their forces else
where in the neighborhood Of the
enemy. Large contingents Of Turks
from Monastir while marching south
ward surprised Greek investment OF
Sorowitz. The Greeks were routed, the
casualties numbering 1000
A band of 200 Albanians crossed
the mountains and attacked the Greeks
near Congovo but were repulsed. lhe
Greeks have seized Ostrove Pass. APP
parently fighting is in progress to-day
as the Bulgarian outposts report thai
they can hear Cannonading.

RUSSIA C0NCILIATORY
Fears, However, that Pro-Slav
Opinion May Prove Too Strong.

st. Petersburg. Nov. 27.-Apparently
a rupture between Austria and Russia
has been avoided or at least postponed
The audience which the Austrian Am
bassador, Count Thurn, had with the
Emperor yesterday has probably had
something to do with this. 1t is pointed
out that neither Russia nor Austria
wishes to fight over port IN the
Adriatic, and that so long as the two
governments are able to discuss the
situation in a friendly spirit the FISK
of war is slight.
But the possibility Of another es-
arrangement is not precluded as in case
of Austria refusing Servia any access
to the Adriatic. In such event pup
lie opinion in Russia may prove 100
strong for the government 10 resist
the claims of the Slavs, and If Austria
should resort TO arms against the Ser
vians the war feeling here is likely 10
assume dangerous proportions.
Austrian diplomacy is considered to
be too sklful ana too well informed
not TO make due allowances for the
difficulties of the Russian position.
The Fourth Douma will meet to-mor-
row. and the parties are so disorgan-
lied as a result Of clerical bureaucratic
pressure in the elections that no
majority is available for the choice OF
a Speaker.

SOCIALIST DEMANDS REFUSED
German Chancellor Will Do Nothing
Further in Meat Situation.

Berlin. Nov. 27-The high cost OF liv-
ing was discussed in the German I'm
perial Parliament to-day. when the So
cialists brought forward an interpella-
ton asking what the government was
going TO do TO regulate the prices OF
moaC The first reading Of the govern
ment bill making reductions Of duties on
meats imported by municipalities was also
debated.
The Imperial Chancellor. DR.. Won Beth
mann Hollweg, in reply 10 the Socialist
Interpolation. refused TO take any fur
Their measures 10 alleviate the situation
caused by the scarcity OF meat. He
argued that high prices prevailed all over
the world. The government. he said. was
unwilling TO expose German agriculture
TO the danger OF outside competition by
admitting frozen meat or by further re-
Taxing the sanitary control IL declined
also TO reduce the duties on imported
meats and animals.

HEAD OF LONDON POLICE
SHOT IN GROIN BY CRANK
Sir Edward Henry Dangerously
Wounded in Street-His
Assailant Arrested.

London. Nov 27.-Sir Edward Rich
ard Henry, Chief Commissioner of the
London metropolitan police since 1908,
was shot and seriously wounded to-
night by man who had an alleged
grievance against him. Sir Edward
was alighting from an automobile at
his residence in Kensington on his re-
turn from Scotland Yard, when a man
rushed from the opposite side Of the
street and shot at him three times with
a revolver
one bullet entered the left groin, in
hicting a dangerous wound; the others
missed their mark. The Commission
er's chauffeur, who is an ex-policeman'
grappled with the assailant and over
powered him.
IL turned out that the man, whose
name is Bowes, had a month ago APP
piled at Scotland Yard for taxicab
license, which was refused. Subse-
uuently he wrote TO the Commissioner,
pleading for reconsideration, but
without avail. For this reason he
nursed a grudge against Sir Edward
and lay in wait for him.
The Commissioner has retained con-
seriousness, but is suffering great pain.
The attending physicians pronounce
the wound serious. but they hope for
their patients recovery. Sir Edward
is sixty-tWo years old.

Ing for cigarettes during the two years
ne spent I'm the death house" at Sing
Sing. on May 10. 1910, when he was con-
victed Of murder for poisoning his wife
his first words after the verdict was an
nounced were: Let's have the makings;
] want TO roll a cigarette"
When he was released yesterday on his
own recognizance by Judge Mulqueen in
General Sessions. on the motion Of the
District Attorney, who said that wit
nesses for the second trial could not be
found, Lustig said: II don't want to talk
about the time / spent I'm the death
house / want TO forget that. I am out
now, and ! want a cigarette more than
anything else"
When he had lighted his cigarette. he
continued ....
1--WE are going 10 have a quiet family
Thanksgiving dinner to-morrow-just my
parents, my attorneys, Benjamin Reass
and Alexander Mayer. and myself. II
will be the first real meal have enjoyed
in more than two years"
Judge Mulqueen Endorsed the indict-
ment against Lustig as follows:
THE absence of material witnesses
makes 1t impossible for the people to
hope to secure a conviction in this case.
Though the present whereabouts Of the
two missing witnesses Is not known, de-
spite most diligent efforts 10 find them,
yet such efforts must not be discontinued.
The witnesses must be sought and found
II possible. The case can then be brought
10 trial"

French officer Mistook Orders
and Fluttered the Frontier.

Nancy, France. Nov IA flutter Of
excitement was caused along the Franco
German frontier last evening by the re-
ceipt Of an order to mobilize by reseryists
In the seven townships comprised in the
district of Arracourt
Throughout the night the men hur-
ried through the streets on their way to
the garrison towns OF Nancy and Lune-
vile, only TO find on their arrival at head
quarters that an error in the transmits
sion of a dispatch addressed to the
brigadier general in command OF the dis
trlct was responsible for their being
called up.
As the result OF an investigation this
morning the brigadier general was ar
rested by military police in spite of his
protest that the dispatch he had received
was explicit and formal and had ordered
general mobilization.
Paris, Nov H-The French Minister OF
War issued a statement to-day declaring
that the report Of the mobilization Of the
French army on the eastern frontier and
elsewhere was utterly unfounded. The

Of what TO do in the case Of a general
mobilization. He immediately acted upon
these in the district under his jurisdic-
ton The bells were rung in all the viii
