Rome, April 12.-As the result OF q
master diplomatic stroke, participated In
Jointly by Italy. Austro-Hungsry. and
Germany. the renewal of the triple ALI
ance is assured. according to the highest
authority. The next life term OF the
triparte agreement is five years.
The recent meeting Of Emperor william

with King Victor EmmanueI IN Venice
is believed 10 have sealed the preliminary
steps and now all is ready for the final

Final ratification Of the alliance may
impose a condition upon Italy. The Ger

ment the advisability OF compelling Italy
to strengthen her sea ornaments In the
event the agreement is ratified, the Turco-
Italian war having revealed the true
naval force Of this country.
However, this proposition may not be
urged as Italy will be deeply in debt as
a result OF the war without undertaking
to build up the navy at this precarious
period.
