 engagement.
 Vienna, April 3.-FOrmer Emperor Charles is i'll at Steinamanger, ac- cording to reports reaching entente diplomats here. The report is coupled with request for an allied physician to go to Steinamanger.
 There is some inclination to regard the indisposition of Charles as dip lOmatic illness" contracted in order that the former Emperor may obtain a further delay in leaving Steinaman> ger.
 The postponement in the departure of Charles is beginning to cause irri- tation here as well as in Prague and Belgrade. According to dispatches from the latter places there are indi4 cations that early steps may be taken to hasten the departure of Charles.
 The belief prevails in some guar ters that Charles may start for Swift zeriand tonight now that the trans portation difficulties have been set tied. But this is still contingent on possible developments at Steinaman- ger, where it is reported that large numbers of members of the nobility are arriving. The little town is crowd ed with Hungarian notables in mum bers never before known in it's history
 In foreign circles here it is asserted that Charles will resist removal pend ing the meeting of the Parliament Count Indreassy is said to be adroitly trying to save the d@y for the Hap burgs by inducing Charles to abdicats in favor of Aarchduke Otto, his Swear. old son. under, regency.
 The difficulty of getting the forme, king out of Hungary Is said to be due to difficulties between the various interests in charge of the situation It is understood that the socialist: have firmly maintained the position that two Of their army officers and six men should accompany Charles in order to continue the fictition that he is prisoner.
 The allied officials and the Huny a rians supported by the Austrian po- lice, refused this as unnecessarily com plicating matters. Certain allied of ficers last night agreed to induce their associates and Hungarians to consent to the socialist plan, and the social lsts yiefded upon the que. tion of the actual presence of the escort in Charles compartment
 It is believed that Charles will travel through Bavaria, -hus avoiding pass ing through Styria and Tyrol, where he fears demonstrations although there is some hitch over getting Ger many's consent.
 The Sazburg Diet has unanimously protested against Charles having visited Austria and demanded that the central government prevent a recur- renee of the visit. The Ardeiter zei- tung today asks how long Charles is to be permitted constantly to pass to and from Austria.
