JEALOUSIES OF THE NATIONS. If any trouble arises while the Powers are trying to assist to straighten out the Balkan mix-up, it will be duo to the ambitions of Austria and Russia, agree the experts of the European press. Russia is racially interested in the fate of the Slavs of Servia, Bulgaria and Montenegro, and Austria is interested territorially. Austria is said to 'be like Xerxes, who "had great thoughts and aspirations, but accomplished nothing." Austria, when ruler of Germany, was ousted by the rise of Prussia; when she •had been granted possession of Lombardy and Venetia, the kingdom of Sardinia wrested her Italian provinces from her. Now her dream of expansion in the Balkans, partially realised by her annexation of Bosnia-Herzegovina, seems dissipated, and even the annexed provinces of four years ago may slip from her grasp. Meanwhile both Austria and Russia are pleading for peace and professing their desire to see it prevail. France and Germany look on with anxiety at the movements of these two Powers, and the Deutsche Tagezeitung (Berlin) remarks uneasily: "The work of France and Germany in this business i 3 to reconcile Vienna and St. Petersburg and prevent them from taking any steps which will be dangerous and of such a character as to bring about a conflict." According to the Fremden Blatt (Vienna), Austria will take no hostile measures so long as the sanjak of NoviBazar, on the confines of Servia, is *ot occupied by the allies. On this point the well-informed Hamburger-Nachrich-ten remarks: "Great anxiety is felt in 'inany circles of influence as to whether Austria-Hungary and Russia can find common basis from which they may so deal with tihe Balkan Powers as to serve the interests of peace. Austria-Hun-gary, of course, regards with sympathy the outbreak of war in the Balkans. There is, however, the thought that in ease the Balkan States are victorious, Servia might be moved to seize upon the sanjak of Novi-Bazar. It is of the highest importance to Austria-Hungary that this territory be not separated from Turkey. It has, indeed, for the monarchy little value as a military post, inasmuch as it is difficult to fortify it in its position between Servia and Montenegro. But politically it has this significance: If it falls into the hands of Servia, it results in the enlarging of the Servian kingdom and the lengthening of the frontier between Austria and Servia. These two points, however, Austria cannot overlook, and would avoid anything whereby her domestic policy, with regard to the southern Slavs, as in Bosnia, should be defeated. The territorial expansion of Servia would result in a strong crystallisation of the planswhich are already taken toward the creation of a greater Servia. The Vienna Fremden Blatt and Neue Freie Presse 'both proclaim Austria's policy of peace, but the former paper observes that if hands are laid upon Novi-Bazar, Austria will invade Servia, and inarch into Macedonia. Russian papers are equally vehement in their profession of peaceful .intentions, and the Rossya (St. Petersburg), which is considered the official paper —it is even said that its articles are written in the office of M. SazonoiT, the Minister for Foreign Affairs— declares with regard to the Russian policy in dealing with the Balkan nations: "We cannot conceal from ourselves, nor indeed from others, the fact that our sympathy and friendship of Russia are on the side of those who are our Slav brothers, both by race and by faith. It is only persons who are illinformed who can speak of our indifference with regard to the essential movement s of our country. These are joined by complaints of others who show their usual irresponsibility in attacks against the Government and its interests. We wish to be understood that the promordial interest of Russiain the maintenance of peace. The Government has decided to maintain this peace and feels that it h supported by an enormous majority of the people. . . . With satisfaction wp foci l)ouii(l to stintß tlio "eneral alarm which prevails, and the General wish at the same time to maintain peace, have produced a basis of agreement and a loyal exchange of views between the Cabinet of St. Petersburg inrl ■ that of Vienna. We cannot, estimate too highly the significance of this fact"
