THE Italian Government had OBJ
tanned Trustworthy Information that the
complete programme laid down by Aus
~tria-Hungary with reference 10 the Bal
kans was prompted by II desire To de-
crease l,aly's economical and poll' cal
influence in that section. and tended
directly and indirectly to the subse-vi-
ance # Serbia TO Austria-liungary. the
political and territorial isolation Of
Montenegro and the isolation and politi-
cal i~ecadence of Rumania.
This attempted diminution OF ;he
influence OF Italy in the Balkans would
nave been brought about by the Austro-
Hungarian programme, even though
.Aust"ia-Hungary had no intention OF
making further territorial acquisitions.
Furthermore, attention should be called
10 the fact that the Austro-Hungariau
Government had assumed the solemn
ob.lg- ton Of prior consultation Of Italy
as required by the special provisions
of Article VII. OF the treaty Of the
Tiipls Alliance, which In addition to The
oNli z ton II previous agreement rec0g
nized the right ~ compensation to the
other contracting parties in case one
should occupy temporarily or perma-
nenly any section OF the Balkans.

the purpose of giving a new lease OF
life to the treaty, which had been
violated and thereby annulled by the
act Of Austrla-Hungiry. This object
could he avained only by the conclusion
of new agreements. The conversations
