AUSTRIA FEARS GERMAN ANGER.
According to Opinions Held By French
Newspapers.

Paris, Oct. 30.--The second note of
Count Julius Andrassy, the Austro- Hun.
garian foreign minister, to President
Wilson is interpreted as evidence that
Austria is in desperate plight and has
exhausted her powers of resistance.
"The Daubian monarchy seeks an is
sue all the more promptly because it
knows of the anger aroused across the
Rhine by its detection and the desire of
vengeance which inspires the Berlin cab
met" says the Petit Parisien and 9TH
er newspapers.
Other writers strike note OF caution.
ut il essential that entente troops
have every latitude in occupying regions
the inhabitants of which expect from us
the fulfllment of solemn promises. It is
also essential that, in the event Of Ger
many not accepting our conditions for
an armistice, the territory of the mon
archy shall not constitute an obstacle
to our military operations" says the
Matin.
Lieutenant Colonel de Thomasson, in
the Petit Journal says:
Proposals for an arnlistice, presented
separately by Germany and Austria
Hungary, place the allied governments in
the presence of delicate problem. We
must decide to which of the two powers
we shall first state our conditions. The
solution which is adopted will evidently
not modify the issue OF the war, but
may have the effect of lengthening hos
tilities."
