Berne, November 8.
The Morning Post’s wires refer to extraordinary scenes that took place in Vienna. The newspapers, relying on German sources, published a rumour as to the likelihood of a separate peace being arranged with Russia. Later many members of the Austrian aristocracy who were attending a race meeting in the afternoon professed to confirm the tidings on the strength of an alleged telegram from Count Tisza, at Budapest, stating that the streets there were beffagged, and crowds were parading, wild with joy. The news- spread like wildfire in Vienna. Excited crowds collected at the Ministry of War, and at St. Stephen’s Church, cheering themselves hoarse, and parading at the Kartnerstrasse, until the Foreign Minister issued a denial.
