ITALY ON VERGE OF WAR.

Guns on Border-German Ambassador
Ends Negotiations.
Rome, May 10.-Prince Won Buelow,
the German ambassador to Italy, WIS.,
tied the pope and the king.
The report was Immediately circu-
lated that these visits were for the
purpose of paying farewell, as the ne
gotiations with Austria have failed.
The German ambassador refused to
discuss this report, but it is believed
he and Premier Salandra have ended
negotiations.
The king by royal decree postponed
the converting of the senate and the
chamber of deputies from May II to
May 20.
The railway administration has an
nounced the suspension of 40 passen-
ger trains on the main line. This &C
ton is taken to facilitate the move
ment of troops and munitions of war
to the concentration bases.
Italy will not go into the war with
it's eyes closed to it's possibilities. Tel
egraphing from Berlin, the kaiser no.
titled Prince Won Buelow that Aus
trials cause is Germany's, and that
Austria's enemies must be Germany's.
Because of this should Italy come into
the war it will be opposed by great
German army.
