LONDON. Dec. lu.-Omclal quar-
ters In Vienna deny that any warlIke
Significance Is attached to the mill
tary changes. but these assurances
fail to allay the uneasiness aroused
by the fears that the powerful mill
tary party in Servia may force the
hands of the government.
General Won Hoetzendorff. the new
Austrian chief of staff, is credited
with being the sworn enemy OF Servia
and to have been for long time pos
sessed OF the conviction that nothing
but the sword can settle the differ
ences between Austria and Servia.
Further proof has reached London
that Austria-Hungary is mobilizing.
Many Austrian and Hungarian resi-
dents OF London. including Count
George Apponyi and the noted artist.
Philip LaZzle. have been called to the
colors.
According to one report. Austria in
tends TO demand diminution In the
present strength OF the Servian army
"a demand to which Servia. in her
present temper, is hardly likely to
agree.
All arrangements for the peace con-
ference in London are now complete.
Besides being received by the king.
the delegates will be honored with
other entertainments. including a
luncheon by the lord mayor at the
Guild hall.

INDOOR SPORT
FOR HELMETTA
Bias ketbaIl is Talked by Club
GOOD Court.
.ecial to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING VIEWS.
Helmetta, Oct. PIT is reported
here that the Helmetta Club, which
is the prime mover in athletic and
social circles of the borough, will
put a basketball quintet on the floor
this winter. The news has been re-
cetved with considerable Joy among
the young fellows about town, as
the game has had a number Of ad-
m1rers here for years. According
to the reported plans the club hall,
situated conveniently near the club
house, will be altered and the low
ceiling removed, SO that the great
indoor sport can be enjoyed without
any huge difficulties.
A line on the Helmetta material
is hard to draw at this time, mas
much as the game is untried around
these parts. Some of the local fell
lows will try their hand at basket
shooting, however, and a coach
from Trenton will come down here
to whip the candidates into shape.
Although the ceiling in the club hall
is too low for basketball, II it is
removed, as planned, the building
will be ideal for the game. The
club house nearby is equipped with
shower baths, which would be a
boon to the players on visiting quin-
tets.
