There has been no change,
however, in the status of relations
between this government and
Turkey and Bulgaria, it was Off
eially stated.
1t would not be surprising,
however, if they shortly followed
the lead of Austria.
The passports will be made i'm
mediately available for Baron
Zwiedenik, for Count Tarnowsk
who has never been received
here as Austrian ambassador
for the entire embassy staff and
for all Austrian consular, diplo-
matte and commercial attaches
throughout the country.
Week to Go In.
The German party that sailed
with Count Won Bernstorff when
he was given his passports num-
bered about 200 persons. The
Austrian party that will leave
with Zwiedenik and Tarnowski is
expected to reach close to that
number.
1t probably will be at least a
week before the usual formalities
can be gone through and the Aus
trian party started on its way.
This government, of course
will consult with other members
of the entente allies as to safe
conduct, and means of transport
ing the party.
War Question Unsettled.
Sweden will assume charge OF
Austrian interests in the United
States, Baron Zweiedinek inform
ed the state department today.
The president will probably
communicate the latest develop
ment to congress, outlining the
course of action contemplated.
In his war message to congress,
President Wilson reserved the
right to discuss the Austrian sit
uation at a later date. But
whether he will declare a state
of war against Austria is under
stood to depend largely upon Aus,
tria's official action. There was
no official announcement today
as to what would be done.
