rest telegraphs : - "Russian officials of

though opposed to the .war in the nrst
place, yet now they would not listen
to suggestions for peace." j
, A Belgrade dispatch ' to the '-Times
says : "The news of the reported Rus
sian disaster has created great uneasi
ness here, especially as everything was
prepared for the crossing of the Dan
ube at Gladova bjr' the Russians, and
their reception in Negatin and the
Tunak villages. ' ' .
"It is announced that the cabinet here
agreed to postpone eritenij into ac
tion. Gt&elxdops who ever e marching
to the frontiers have been,' recalled, in
the towns not so near the border, in or
der to give no umbrage to the Porte."
The Vienna correspondent of the
Times, whose information on diplomat
ic matters is conspicuously accurate
and thorough, makes the following
commeDt on the conference at Salse
burg, between Bismarck and Andras
By: ''Its importance ought not to be
understood, not only as regards Ger
many and Austria, but touching the
Eastern question itself. The triple alli
ance about the existence or non-existence
of which, there has been so much
talk, had indeed become a woeful an
achronism since Russia stepped out
of it and took her own line. But it
must not be forgotten that it had an
other, perhaps a deeper meaning, and
as regards that, happily not only for
the parties concerned but for Hiurope
at large, it still exists, and it may be
hoped will be strengthened anew by
the Salseburg interview. Except for the
oppostion of the permanent mediator,
constantly at work since the Berlin
meeting in 1872, which laid the foun
dation of the triple alliance, to smooth
down the differences which exist be
tween the interests of Austria and Rus
sia regarding the solution of the East
ern question, probably by this time, in
stead of a local struggle, Europe would
have found itself in tbe midst of an
European war."
Berlin, September 20. The meet
ing of Prince Bismarck and Count An
drassy at Salseburg is to be regarded
as a sequel of the recent interview be
tween the Austrian and German Em
perors, as merely strengthening the
views then exchanged between the two
sovereigns regarding the continuance
Pt the unaerstanaing between meir im
perial courts upon the means of avert
ing European complications.. This
result is secured without formal treaty
stipulations, inasmuch as it represents
the comnlete personal agreement ex
isting between the three Emperors.

that since Sunday has been so severe
in th e gulf States has moved to the
eastward and is now central in south
ern Georgia and northern Florida.
The barometer has risen at the cen
ter of the depression and the storm
has diminished very much in severity.
It can no longer be considered danger
ous, it is attended by northeasterly
winds and rain in the South Atlantic
and East Gulf States.
