KING MENACED
BY ANTI-PEACE
PARTY In ITALY
Failing War "Monarchy
Will Cease TO Exist"
Says Socialist.
WHOLE NATION
SPEAKS TOMORROW
Demonstration To Be Held in
All Cities in Attempt to Pre-
cipitate Conflict.

Rome via Paris). April 9.-Political
parties favorable TO Italy's immediate
Intervention in the war, comprising
Democrats, Radicals, Reformists. So
ci6lists and Nationalists. have arranged
q national demonstration to be held on
Sunday throughout Italy in an endeavor
to bring about the participation Of the
country in the conflict.
The "Corriere dltalia," commenting
to-day on this development, says that
II has assumed the character of a
warning TO the monarchy. since the Ma
tional League. which arranged the
meeting, adopted a resolution contain
ing this sentence:
'1f, after long waiting. there are dis
illusions, no matter Of what nature, a
profound political upheaval is inevita-
BILE"
Professor Mussolini, Socialist
leader explains this section Of the reso-
luton thus;
"ln other words, II the monarchy Is
unable to make national war the mon
archy will cease TO exist in Italy, as a
profound political upheayal means a
change Of regime"
Understanding Still Possible.
The questions whether an understand
ing between Italy and Austria still is
possible and whether separate Aus
tro-Russian peace treaty is probable
are discussed from different points Of
view by the press Of the capital. The
papers agree that the two questions
are closely related, since If Russia,
with the permission of her allies, OBJ
tsins what she desires and comes TO
terms with Vienna, il is impossible to
imagine that Austria would be willing
TO make territorial concessions TO
Italy.
II is regarded as probable by the
newspapers that reports of peace neGo-
tiations will be denied in all official
quarters until some tangible agreement
IS reached. The position Of Austria. il
's contended, is becoming daily more
grave because Of the Russian invasion
and the threat Of Italian intervention.
The Idea Nazionale" says Austria
has but little chance Of regaining what
she has lost and that the probabilities
are she will lose more II she continues
TO fight, while by making peace with
Russia che would avoid q further Mus
covite invasion and might prevent a
Serbian advance as well as the inter
vention Of Italy and Rumania. The
paper says Austria may even hope to
obtain moral and material revenge by
a victorious war against Italy alone.
Rome Ready to Negotiate.
I'll Messagero," in an article on the
political situation, says one object Of
the recent Austro-ltalian negotiations
was TO show that Rome has been ready
20 reach with Vienna peaceful solu-
ton Of at least some of the grave
problems arising from the war, which
was brought into being "by the central
empires, without Italy's consent,
against ltaly's advice and contrary to
ltaly's interests"
"The negotiations show the paper
continues. that Austria, notwithstand-
ing the pressure Of Germany. refused
10 take into serious consideration the
just wishes OF Italy. Therefore the ne
gotiations are destined to be inter
lupted the moment one side or the
ether believes that further delay would
serve the enemy better than herself"
Geneva via Paris. April 9.-The
German government to-day. besides
prohibiting exports from Germany TO
Italy, A. stopping at the frontier sta
tons all empty Italian freight cars

arriving in Switzerland to-day from

London, April 9.-The Russian sue
cesses IN the Carpathians. where the
Muscovites are now said to control Writ
uall all the important passes and are
preparing for a descent of the southern
slopes on to the plains OF Hungary
have revived unofficial talk of sepa-
rate peace for Austria-HunCary anC
seemingly increasing anxiety on the
part of the interyentionists in Italy loi
their country to take up arms on the
side of the Allies and secure territory
which they have failed to get in the
negotiations through Germany with
Austria.
The Russian newspapers seem con.
WINGED that Hungary, if not the whole
OF the Dual Monarchy, is ready to seek
peace, and il is said that Emperor Fran.

to intervene in his behalf Except in
Italy, the neutral country most directly
