claring War
AUSTRIA'S REPLY OPENS
WAY FOR NEGOTIATIONS
German Ambassador Makes
Preparations To Leave
Rome By Wednesday

Rome, May ll.--That Austria 5 reply
to Italy's ultimatum has opened the
way for further diplomatic negotiations
was believed certain here today despite
the failure of the government to make
a statement regarding the matter.
Tnore was every evidence today that
great tension of yesterday which an.
peared to fOreshadow ltaly's early en-.
trance in the war on the side of the
allies had been considerably relieved.
The government failed TO make any
statement as to the contents of the
latest Austrian note, but il was sug.
gested in diplomatic circles that the
Vienna government had made more val.
liable concessions than had been
thought possible.
1t is known that last night tae mill
tary authorities were making feyerish
preparations in anticipation Of orders
as to movements along the Austrian
frontier Prince Won Bueow, the Ger.
man ambassador, is known to have con
iided to his friends that he would b,
forced to leave Rome not later than
wednesday, But in45iew Of the couces
sOns said to have been made by Aus
tria, the reply from Vienna will nov
be given every consideration befor,
any warlike move is made
While the concessions made by Aus
tria may keep Italy out of the war a
this iuncturc, it is expected that fur
tner pressure will be applied by m,
allies who yet have to say whether the,
are willing for Italy to recede frm he
promises Of assistance.
The situation is still regarded as com
plicated because Of the secrecy impose,
| by the government. Various rnmor
which are prevalent 90 unchallenged il
