Extensive Spy System.

The ro-Hungarlans,b both official ana
unofficial, believe these things mean some
thing definite. But there are other indi-
cations foreboding evil. Never before has
the Russian espionage system been so
extensive and SO all-pervasive as at pres
ent This applies both to the frontiers of
Galicia, Austria and OF Posen. Prussia.
In the military jails of Cracow are 40
Russian spies and in those Of Lemberg
100 The fear of being spied upon is ex-
treme, even ludicrous. Thus. a whole
party of wedding guests from Rzebinja,
near the Russian frontier, was arrested
In Cracow because one of them. slightly
under the influence of liquor, had Jocose-
ly said to a policeman: rs there really
so much danger? Is war coming? They
spent a fortnight in dungeon DeIore
their complete innocence was established.
But Russia is paying much higher casn
prices for spy work. One or these spies
now in confinement the son OF petty
Austrian government employe, when ar
rested had 1000 roubles in Russian notes
in his possession, and this money was
traced to its source-the Russian general
staff headquarters in st. Petersburg. The
Russians are particularly eager to get
exact details as to the emplacement OF
fertilization guns. their gauge. their firing
distance and recently all this had to be
completely changed in the important for
tifications of Przemysl because of Leak
age. Formerly Russia paid her spies in
GaIicia rather shabbily, as a number of
trials showed: now she spends money
like water. There must be a reason.

ALL LOOK FOR WAR
Austrians Expect to Fight
Russia in Spring.
HUGE ARMIES Modified
Vienna Places Responsibility on St.
Petersburg.
BY WOLF Won scH1ERBRAND

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
VIENNA, Austria, February 4. 1918.
The belief is growing throughout Aus
tria- Hungary that war with Russia will
break out in the spring. All classes Of
the population share this belief, even
army and diplomatic circles. When one
inquiries on what it is based the invari-
able answer is: Mobilization.
For week past 1 have made it my
business to get at the bottom of this gen.
eral war scare. AS far as l have been
able to discover, it Is based on a number
Of things, all in their entirety not abso-
lutely convincing. but collectively certain
ly amounting to more than mere rough
guesswork.
OF the fact that Austria Hungary has
kept up the mobilization of her huge and
fine army (also of her small but efficient
navy, remember: the battle of Lissa in
1860 a previous letter spoke somewhat
in detail. The joint government here eX-
plains it merely as a precautionary meas
ure seeing that Russia has positively de-
clined to diSarm, but on the contrary is
perfecting her preparations for DIG war
more and more. And 1t surely is true
that Austria Hungary is not dreaming or
an aggressive war on Russia or any one
else.
Big Army on Border.
On the other hand, the latest reliable
news from the Russian border provinces
shows this: that the Russian active army,
ready to march at a moments notice. now
amounts to 100000. that is, 800 OO0 more
than the regular full peace footing. The
Russian frontier guards. composed OF
eighteen brigades. each brigade having
charge of strip of frontier fifty to sixty
miles long. have been increased by the
calling in of the reserves since last fal
to eighteen mounted regiments of 400
each, and to eighteen battalions OF oOo
each This branch of the army has as
one of it's duties the obtaining OF military
ard secret information from the Austrian
and Prussian border districts adjoining.
The Gordon of Russian fortresses and
fortified towns which stretches In the
shape of a fiat sickle through Russian
Poland and Volhynia is being fitted up
with feverish speed. 1t is expected tnat
all the preparations will be complete by
March or thereabout. The outlying
forts and wire approaches. the razing OF
previous hindrances. the storing OF pro-
visions, the complementing or forfinca.
ton artillery and ammunition, etc., All
this Is now going on with great haste and
at enormous expense. Within the tri-
angle -Litovsk-Kov large masses
Of troops are being concentrated.
With all that, Russia is aiding both
Servia and Bulgaria actively. During De-
cember 1900 Russian volunteers have
proceeded. under the commend Of Rus
sian officers, to Belgrade. To Bulgaria
during the past six weeks nave gone
l Loco Cossacks and artillerymen, under
three Russian colonies. 81 stan and
number of lower officers. Great masses
of military supplies have gone the same
