London, Nov 5.-The European
powers are aligning themselves
sharply regarding the future of the
Balkan states.
Public opinion in England, France
and Russia believes that the allies
should have the territory conquered
by them; but it is believed that Aus
tria, Germany and Italy, the nations
most directly interested, will not sit
quietly and see the Balkan league
establish itself on the Aegean sea-
The first sign of dissension among
the allies is contained in a dispatch
from Belgrade in which it is said
that the Servians are beginning to
declare that an autonomous Alban-
ia which was agreed upon before
the war started, has now faded away.
The dispatch blames the Mussulman
Albanians who fought against the
Servians with the change.
