Austria Proposes Exchange Of
Views Between the Powers.
SERVIA STILL PREPARING
Malissori Tribesmen Advance
on Scutari-Russia and
Rumania for Peace.
BY Cable 20 The Tribune.

London. Sept. 2J.-The speech OF the
Emperor Francis Joseph to the Aus
trian and Hungarian delegations in
Vienna yesterday has made an unta-
vorable impression here on account OF
its great reserve and the omission OF
all references TO European peace in
future. This impression has been fur
Their increased by the speech Of Count
Berchthold, as 1t IS quite unusual for
an Austrian Foreign Minister to ex-
press himself in such plain, unvar-
nished terms on the situation in the
Balkans.
The passage to the effect that Aus
tria must be prepared for all eyentualf
ties on land and sea has caused much
comment.
Tho Emperor. after the speech, was
heard 10 say to a member OF one OF the
delegations: we are facing a very
serious situation" These words from
3 monarch accustomed to weigh every
word with the greatest care are ac-
cepted as confirmation of the gravity
Of the Balkan situation.
Vienna, Sept. H.-The Balkan situation
has aroused the deepest interest in Aus
tria. Emperor Francis Joseph has sug-
Sested an exchange OF views between the
powers Oh the important questions now
az issue with respect 20 these states, and
Count Leopold vou Berchthold, the Aus
TRAN Foreign Minister In a statement to
the Foreign Affairs Committee of the
Hungarian Delegation to-day made refer
cnce TO the proposals he has submitted
to the powers for an exchange OF views.
He said that the result was the unani-
nous cooperation Of the powers and q
pledge for the prevention of Violent
solution Of the Balkan crisis. The Min
lister cdded:
II would, however, be a serious mis-
take IL, because OF this, we regarded the
danger Of the present situation as being
ayerte1.
Count Won Berchthold declared that the
unsatisfactory conditions IN European
Turkey mad seriously affected the neigh
boring countries imposing upon their
statesmen heavy task. He hoped that
their sense Of responsibility would re-
strain them from following the impulses
of irresponsible elements He continued:
We also trust, however, that Turkey will
not fail to recognize the gravity Of the
situation and find way 20 avoid COM
plications. Our Information iustifes the
assumption that the pI eSent Turkish gov
eminent is diligently cndeavoring 10 Dro-

OF Turkey and her internal consolidation.
We regard IL as the duty OF Turkish
statesmen 10 reconcile tho legitimate
claims OF the different peoples OF Mace
