When in 1912 the conquerors of the

only on conquest.
Austrian diplomacy now seized upon the
rivalries of the Balkan States to destroy
this Ralkan confederacy which Russia had
con Instructed. First of all Vienna declared
that Albania could not be annexed by Ser
bia ard Greece, but must be made separ'
ate state. This deprived Serbia of most OF
her nrospective gain under her treaty with
Rulgaria. Russia protested, but Germany
again signifed her readiness TO go to war
to support Austrian claims, and neither
France nor Great Britain was wiling u

few square miles of Albanian wilderness
Serbia was thus compelled to give over
Albania. the Montenegrins to abandon

WHEN THE GREAT WAR BEGAN.

The outbreak of the Great War last
August found the Balkans in this sltua-
ton: Serbia was already engaged; Greece
and Rumania were bound to Serbia by
treaty to preserve the Treaty of Bucha-
rest. but both were ruled by friends OF
Germany. Charles of Rumania was
Hohenzollern. Constantine's wife was the
sister of the Kaiser. The courts Of both
states were strongly pro-German. The
people, on the contrary, were strongly IN
clined to the Allies.
Blu. Greece was unable to go to the aid of
Serbia. because there was a steady pros
meet that Serbian defeat would lead Bull
garia to seek to reclaim not alone the por-
ton of Macedonia held by Serbia, but that
occupied by Greece, including both kavala
and Salonca. Greece was then immobilized
by Bulgarian menace and by the court
sympathies with Germany. Rumanis.

dred thousands of people. Serbia and
Greece had each acquired above 15,OO0
square miles of territory and 100000
people; Bulgaria had gained less than half
a million. Not less than million Bulgars
had been lost to Greece and Serbia and the
whole dream of Bulgarian statesmen and
people for a generation had been de-
stroyed.
From the Second Balkan War, then,
Bulgaria retired sullen, resentful, revenge
full. All seemed lost, but there was no sur
render of Bulgarian purpose. Meantime
Russia had scored another great victory
and Austrian diplomacy was bankrupt. A
new strong Serbia was looking across the
Danube into Bosnia and Croatia; Pan-Ser-
bian dreams had assumed as perilous pro-
portions as those of the Italian patriots
half a century before. Serbia already
felt herself a second Sardinia and backed
by Russia dreamed of "redSming" the
millions of southern Slavs from Trieste to
the Draw and from Laibach to Belgrade.
1t was the realization Of the meaning of
the Serbian dream which precipitated the
Great War Austrian diplomacy, twice

wars. recognizing the Serbian menace, took
advantage of the murder of the Archduke

sal drama now going forward.

VENIZELOS TRIES AND FAILS.

Despairing of any help from Rumania
or Bulgaria the Allies turned TO Greece.
Ready now to launch their attack by fleet

Greece Joined hands against Bulgaria and
the Second Balkan War resulted.
This war was precipitated by Bulgaria,
confident of victory and driven forward by
Austrian urgings. In vain the Car
sought by personal dispatches addressed to
Bulgarian Ministers and to the Bulgarian
Car, himself, to prevent the strife. For
answer the Bulgarian armies in Macedonia
suddenly, treacherously attacked their
Greek and Serbian allies without a decla.
ration of war. But once more Austrian
calculations went astray. The attack
failed. The Greek and Serbian armies
were victorious and the Bulgarian forces
were driven out Of Macedonia.
Meantime new factor demanded atten-
ton. Rumania, with Hohenzollern king
had always been reckoned an Austro-Ger
man ally. By taking Bessarabia in the
Russo Turkish war and thus despoiling an
ally, Russia had made permanent enemy
of Rumana. But Rumania saw in the new
and greater Bulgaria a dangerous rival.
Bulgarians were already declaring that
they would take from Rumania the Do
brudja province, gained in the Russo
Turkish war and the sole Rumanian win
dow on the sea. To Rumanian demands
for the cession by Bulgaria of the fortress
of Silistria, the real key to Rumania' 5
coast province, Austria, busy fattering
Bulgaria, turned deaf ear.
But Russia, now thoroughly enraged at
Bulgaria's course, gave full consent to
Rumania to attack Bulgaria, and at the
moment when the Greek and Serbian
armies were winning in Macedonia a Ru-
manian army crossed the Danube and
entered Bulgaria. Finally Turkish army
came hack to Adrianople. Surrounded by
enemies, her armies beaten, her resources
exhausted, Bulgaria gave up the fight.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-08-22

Venizelos, the great Greek statesman
promptly lent friendly ear to the propo
sails. Before Greece could move she must
propitiate Bulgaria. This could be done
by retroceding Kavala, Drama and Sores
In return the Allies offered Smyrna ant
the Asiatic lttoral from Rhodes to Nifty
lene. This offer Venizelos accepted.
But King Constantine spoiled the plan
Hellenic hatred of Bulgaria was very in
tense; the proposal to cede to Bulgaria the
purely Greek city of Kavala, the prize Of
the Second Balkan War, reused instant
Greek protest. Venizelos insists the Kinl

denied this publicly. Meantime the Allied

POINTS OF DIFFICULTY.

Summarizing briefly, it will be seen that
the following difficulties face the Allied
statesmen, who are trying to restore the
old Balkan Alliance and enlist the Balkan
States against the Turk and the Teuton.
Rumania, having once been betrayed by
Russia, hestates to accept Russian PROM
Uses and presses claims to Slav-inhabited
regions in Bukovina and Temesvar; in the
latter province she claims the very hills
that face the Serbian capital.
Serbian concessions to Bulgaria are
halted by the claims of Italy on Serb-in-
habted lands in Dalmatis and by the de-
termination of Rome to preserve Albania
intact and thus make it an Italian protec-
torate after the war.
Greece is reluctant to cede lands inhab-
tied by Greeks to Bulgaria. She is angered
by Italian pretensions TO Southern Al
bania. which is inhabited by an Albanian
population closely affiliated with the
Greeks in religion, by the Italian occupa-
ton of Rhodes and the Dodecanesus, which
are by history and by the tongue and ira
dition of their people Hellenic. She is
doubtful of the Allied power to give
Smyrna as a compensation for Kavala.
Bulgaria makes her entrance into the
war conditional on the cessions of Greek,
Serbian and Rumanian territory, which
the Allies cannot compel, and have so far
been unable to persuade the present own
ers to make.
Finally, Germany profits very greatly
by the fact that the rulers of Rumania.
Greece and Bulgaria are either Austro-
German by derivation or related to tho
German monarch by marriage.

BULGARIA FIXES A PRICE.

The failure of Venizelos having removed
Greece from the field for the moment Bull
garia promptly occupied the auction block.
She was prepared to send her army
against the Turks, and this would mean
the prompt ending of the Dardanellei
deadlock, if the Allies would persuade Ser
bia to surrender Macedonia. Bulgar title
to this was clear, if the desire of the in
habitants and questions of language an
race were to be considered. If in addition
she could be assured that Rumania would
give back Silistria and that her claims to
Kavala be weighed in the grand rear
rangement following the war, Bulgaria
was ready to take up the old road to the
Chatalja.
But now Serbia baked. She had made

COMMON PERIL AND COMMON PROFIT

On the other hand the real point Of ad-
vantage of the Allies is discoverabe in tho
fact that Austrian success constitutes
common danger for all the Balkan States.
Only if Austria is defeated can Rumania
hope to obtain Bukovina, Pennsylvania and
Temesvar. If Austria destroys Serbia
Bulgaria will be placed between new
Austrian province descending to the
Egean at Salonica and the Austro-Ger-
man ally, Turkey. Macedonia will be per-
manently lost and With it all hope of re-
gaining Adrianople.
Greece must face the peril Of an Aus
trian seizure of Salonlca. She must also
consider the permanent hostility of de-
feated Italy and the peril of continuing
supremacy in the Mediterranean of the sea
powers. She will also be confronted by
the still enduring hatred Of Bulgaria, who
will not be restrained from attacking her
if the chance comes. All hope of reviving
the glories of ancient Helas and later By
zantium in Asia Minor will also be lost.

ultimate reconquest by the Turk Of Nifty
lene Chios and Samos.
Such, then, is the present state of un-
stable equilibrium in the Near East. 1t
can be indefinitely prolonged if the Ger.
man threat to hack way to the Golden
Horn for ammunition is abandoned, but
unless the long standing rivalries Of race
and the influence of the Balkan German
ophiles in the courts Of Sofia, Athens and
Bucharest prevail against the self-inter-
ests o. the states, it is difficult to see how
the Allies can ultimately lose their fight.
Moreover, it is necessary TO recognize
that any real success Of the forces now

abou: the fall of Constantinople, would

THE ANNEXATION OF BOSNIA.

But the annexation Of Bosnia destroyed
all the hopes of thst greater Serbia which
all Serbs had cherished for centuries. 1t
placed definitely under Hapsburg rule the
100000 Serbs living east of the Adriatit
and west of the Serbian Kingdom.
Russia, France and Great Britain pro
tested this act. There was moment IN
1908 when it seemed likely that Arranged
don would come, but Germany appeared in
shining armor," ratified the sabre and the
Triple Entente gave up their protest
Austrian success in the Balkans seemed
assured, the eventual advance of Austria
through Serbia to Salonica appeared in
evitable.
But two powers now entered definitely
into an anti-Austrian campaign. Italy
seeking a balance for Austrian gains,
promptly picked her quarrel with Turkey
over Tripoli and went to war. Russia,
defeated in the field, began to construct
that Balkan confederacy which was t.
precipitate the Balkan wars.
Italian attack upon Turkey, still in the
throes of a reorganization, disclosed the
weakness Of the Osmanl. No sooner had

tan war than Russian diplomacy achieve

FROM 1908 TO 1913.

In Balkan history 1908 is date Of real
inheritance. because it marks the assassi-
nation of the King of Serbia. At the mo-
ment the world saw in this crime only an
oct Of unspeakable barbarity. The unfort-
innate Alexander became something OF
ROYAL martyr in the eyes of world which
knew next to nothing of the facts that lay
south of the Danube.
Yet the crime had two great conse'
oucnces. II was the beginning of the re-
Generation Of Serbia, it was the end OF
Austrian domination in the little Slav
state. Alexander had been the tool OF
Vienna. He had been but the creature that
Ballplatz moved back and forth to meet
the Bulgarian pawn, similarly operated by
Russia. With the return of Karageor-
gievitch to the Serbian throne, the Slav
state changed sides and became a soldier
Of the Gar. Henceforth Austria had to
face a foe on the south.
The immediate consequence was a long
series of trade wars, the famous pig
wars" of other years, so named because
Austria closed her frontiers to Serbian
pigs and well nigh ruined the little agri-
cultural state, which derived its chief in
come from its pork products.
While this petty quarrelling was gong
forward the Young Turkish Revolution
broke out. Turkey, the ally of Vienna
and Berlin, the master of Macedonia, was
suddenly torn by an internal revolution
which sent Abdul Hamid into exile and
prison, destroyed the Turkish army, left
Turkey weak and helpless. But in its con-
ception the Young Turkish idea aimed at
restoring Turkish power. While this idea
still seemed realizable Austria, having &C.
cupied Bosnia since the Congress Of Ber-
lin, and now fearing the revitalized Turk
ish nation would seek to reclaim it, solemn
" annexed Bosnia, thus tearing up the
great Berlin document.
