AUSTRIA.

Austria fought to retain her Italian possessions and to pre- vent the union of the various lit tie kingdoms, duchies and cities that now compose united Italy.
 Austria used every means at hand to prevent the gathering to- gether of the petty German king doms under the leadership of Prussia into the German empire. It is conceivable that with more far-seeing policy Austria might nave been the head of the German federation.
 Can Austria possibly gain as much by opposing the union Of the Balkan states. exciting the undying enmity of Bulgaria., Greece. Servia and Montenegro, as she could by making these al- lies her friends? The rising of a new Balkan power seems to be inevitable, and it will be a power not ln be deSpised.

possible to verify it positively. A Her
aid representative. however, made the
trip down the river, starting about half

the purpose of investigating the report
At every ranch visited, he was informed
positively that the unmistakable report
Of cannon was heard. AT one ranch it
was reported also that some rifle firing
was heard, apparently at La Lomita. a
point some distance in from the coast.
The best information obtainable would
locate the firing at Port Washington, or
the Barril ranch. about twelve miles
down the coast from the river, where
there is small beach resort. Three
boats are reported to have been seen off
this point two DAYS ago, one gunboat,
the others transports
No confirmation whatever of these re
