BURIAN'S BERLIN VISIT
MAY BRING PEACE BID
Austro.Cerman Alliance Will
Not Work Smoothly While
War Continues
Special Gable to Euening Public Ledger


Copyright, 1878. by Nc,r YorI; Times Co.
Amsterdam. June IL.
dispatch to the London Daily Ex-
press says:
The visit Of Count Burian. Austrian
foreign minister to Berlin. is loudly adj
Nertised in the German newspapers as
a historical event" Burian's visit is
certainly of more than usual importance
in view of the fact that il will he the
occasion of the first meeting of German
and Austrian statesmen since the two
kaisers met on WhitSuntde at the Ger
man headquarters. when it was decided
that the Austro-German alliance should
be extended and turned into "a defensive
union" embracing Turkey and Bulgaria.
Count Burian's conversations with
Count Hertling are sure to deal with
this extension of the alliance and. above
all. with the removal of the chief OBJ
stacles. One of them is the Polish ques-
ton and another is the continuance of a
war in which Austria has no longer any
interest.
Regarding the Polish muddle. Vienna
and Berlin are alike pledged to create
new Polish state. The difficulty arises
when 1t has to be decided whether Ger
mans or Austrians are to be supreme
at Warsaw Every one in Germany. ex-
cept few far-seeing persons. wants
the greater portion of Poland. and espe-
cially the mining district of Dombrovo.
simply annexed to Prussia in view Of
the fact that Poland was conquered at
the cost of German blood. In Vienna the
feeling is exactly the reverse The Poles
in Austria don't want millions of Polish
citizens to come under the hated rule
Of tho Prussian King. They wish to see
Poland under the scepter of an Austrian
prince. so that the practical unification
of the Polish race may become possible.
What adds to the complication of the
problem is the fact that even If
Viennese archduke was set on the Polish
throne. Prussia would never surrender
the Polish provinces Incorporated in the
German empire.
Count Burian is said to have come
to Berlin with a view to defending the
Austro-Polish solution OF the question.
whereas Hertling and Kuhlmann are
known to be in favor of German
Polish settlement.
Nobody either in Berlin or Vienna
seems to have taken the least trouble
, to consult the Poles themselves. What
will happen nobody seems to know. but
it is believed that some give-and-take
plan will be adopted. giving Austria
apparent control. while Germany keeps
the real contIo in her hands

The forthcoming indictment and tria

The most remarkable item of indict|
ment is an allegation that the eX-Czat
had secret understanding with thu
Kaiser during the memorable interview
at Potsdam. II appears from telegramt
and correspondence sent by Nichola}
during the time of the interview that hi
and Wilhelm had concluded a verbal
alliance against France and England
and 1t also appears that Nicholas gavS
Wilhelm a promise not to hamper thI
German authorities in Turkey whet

Meanwhile the movements of Mich

that in consequence of the recent Czeci

which is inspired from a variety
sources states that negotiations are
progress for the transfer of the Roma

The latest canard puts these fancif

"If as many believe. it is going to be
necessary for the Americans to put an
army OF 5000. 900 into the field to enable
the Allies to achieve a definite and con-
elusive military victory, then the quick
development of the full American pro-

From every point of view the results
Of the first years work may be set
down as "A glorious achievement, of

Allied lines the full force of his east
