Prince Lichnowsky writes: Mr.. Cam
bon (for France), Marquis Imperial
(for Italy), and I were to meet, with
Sir Edward in the chair, and it would
have been easy to work out formula
for the debated points, which had to
do with the cooperation of imperial
and royal officials in the inquiries to
be conducted at Belgrade. BY the OK
ercise of good will everything could
have been settled in one or two sit
tings, and the mere acceptance of the
British proposal would have relieved
the strain and further improved our
relations with England. I seconded
this plan with all my energies. In
vain. ! was told (by Berlin) that 1t
would be against the dignity Of Aus
tria Of course, all that was needed
was one hint from Berlin to Count
Berchtold (the Austrian Foreign Min
ister); he would have satisfied him
self with a diplomatic triumph and
rested on the Serbian answer That
hint was never given. On the con-
trary, pressure was brought in favor
of war. *
After our refusal Sir Edward
asked US to come forward with our
PROPOSAL We insisted on war. NO
other answer could [ get Cfrom Ber-
linz than that it was q colossal con-
descension on the part of Austria not
to contemplate any acquisition OF ter
ritory Sir Edward justly pointed out
that one could reduce a country 10
vassalage without acquiring territory;
that Russia would see this, and re-
gard it as a humiliation not to be put
up with. The impression grew strong

your judgment.

SEEK PRINCIPALS
IN SHOOTING MIX
NEAR TT. S. BRIDGE

In addition to the murder last
night OF Pedro Lopez. which was
committed at First avenue and
Fourteenth street, comes the infor-
nation from the Rock Island police
department that a shooting affair
took place at yesterday afternoon
at Third avenue and Twenty-third
street when an unknown white man
fired two shots from revolver at
an unknown negro.
The police expect TO have the
principals in the case lined up be
fore many hours have passed. The
police have learned that the white
man and the negro have had con-
siderable trouble at Rock Island
arsenal where both are employed,
and the shooting was the culmina-
ton of the difficulties between the
two.
Witnesses state that 1t seemed
almost impossible that the negro
was not hit by either of the bullets
fired as the gun was discharged at
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1918-12-05
