some uncanny visitor from an unknown
world. Count Zeppelin evidently wished to
show the Prince some maneuvering by the

the surface of the water, turning from
right to left and from left to right like a
well-drilled file of soldiers. Then sud

the clouds, only the mighty hum of Its
propellers Indicating the course It had
taken.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2". W. K. Hearst
departed from his routine of reading so
called Standard Oil letters tonight to
center his attack on Lieutenant-Governor
Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, Demo

speech at an Independence League meet

Hearst .produced and read what he said
were press notices sent out In the in
terest of the Chanler boom prior to the
Democratic National convention, by a
press agent employed by Mr. Chanler.
Jn these notices' Mr. Bryan's candidacy
was held up to ridicule, while Mr. Chan
ler's qualifications were extolled. With
these as a basis Mr. Hearst attempted
to show that Mr. Chanler's present atti
tude toward Mr. Bryan, especially as in
dicated at the Madison Square Garden
Monday night, was one of hypocrisy.

AUSTRIA YIELDS
FOR PEACE' SAKE
Allow Congress on Balkan Af
fairs to Consider An
nexation. HOLDS WAR-DOGS IN CHECK
Denies Right of Powers to Question
Annexation Warns Servia and
Montenegro to Cease Having
Impractical Dreams.
a L'DA rtBT, Oct. Z7. Baron von
Aehrenthal. the Auatro-Hungarlan for
eign minister, In an Important .speech to
day indicated a yielding attitude on the
part of Austria which may aid material
ly In the preservation of peace.
Addressing the Austrian delegation, the
Foreign Minister admitted that It was
Austria's desire to do its utmost to re
lfeve the present tension and that there
fore the government would not Insist
that the question of annexation of Bosnia
and Herz?govina -should be entirely elim
inated from the programme of the Inter
national congress, although naturally he
could not admit that the powers had th
right to question the annexation of the
provinces or the Idea of any territorial
compensation in other directions.
On this basis, however, he added, there
was no objection to the congress placing
on record the abrogation of the articles
relating to Bosnia and Novibazar. The
Austro-Hungarian government was trying
to smooth the way lor the conference.
and he hoped his government's intentions
would be appreciated at Constantinople
and a hand extended for a friendly un
derstanding.
He would be glad also to see the Turko
Bulgarian negotiations lead to an under
standing, for which conditions were by
no means unfavorable. Acting with that
view, Austria, in common with other
powers, had dissuaded the administra
tions at Constantinople and Sofia from
adopting military measures calculated to
increase mutual distrust.
With regard to Servia and Montenegro.
he said, neither was entitled to interfere
In the matter In any way; but, notwith
standing, his government was willing to
treat both with benevolence and take
their Interests fnto consideration. It
would be better, however, for their own
Interest to set practical aims for their
activity Instead of pursuing dreams that
could never be realized.
Continuing, the Foreign Minister dilated
upon Austria s ' conciliatory attitude.
which had met with the support of her
allies. Germany and Ttaly. He looked to
the future with confidence and for that
very reason he believed the other gov
ernments were displaying an equally con
ciliatory disposition.
BULGARIA VOTES . FOR PEACE
Will Compensate Turkey, Ferdinand
Overcoming: All Objection.
SOFIA. Oct. 27. The Bulgarian govern.
ment informed the representatives of the
foreign powers here today of its accep
tance of the principle of making compen
sation to Turkey, which has been the bur
den of pc-nstent diplomatic representa
tions during the past fortnight on the part
of all the great powers. This decision was
arrived at by the Cabinet this afternoon
after a long debate. In which Emperor
Ferdinand used all his Influence in favor
of peace with compensation.
Obdurate members of the cabinet who
were opposed to the principle of compen
sation for fear of stultifying their party
were won over by the reminder that there
were plenty of other politicians who
would be glad to replace them and assume
the responsibility for the payment of the
Roumelian tribute.
The cabinet in a measure was influenced
also by the sentiment of the deputations
which are arriving here for the opening of
the Sobranje tomorrow. They brought re
ports that the people everywhere are suf
fering from the uncertainty and that cred
itors are showing no mercy.
As a further step in the direction of
peace 60.000 reservists will be discharged
tomorrow, leaving the army at Itv normal
strength of 60.000. T!:a government will
send a plenipotentiary to Constantinople
within a day or two to negotiate a treaty
with Turkey. It is believed that by these
steps Bulgaria has done Its utmost to
clear the situation and concentrate opin
ion abroad.
COXFKRKXCE NOW ASSURED
Emperors Will Consult Servian
Peace Kmlssary In London.
LONDON, Oct. 27. The recent pour
parlers in European capitals appears to
have brought the idea of an interna
tional congress for the settlement of the
Balkln problem appreciably nearer real
ization. Austria-Hungary is ready to
enter the congress to discuss the annex
ation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, pro
vided the discussion respects Austria's
"sovereign rights" In these provinces,
while the Bulgarian government is will
ing to pay pecuniary compensation to
Turkey.
A further rapprochement between the
contending parties is expected to ensue
from the visit of Emperor William to the
Austrian Emperor and Archduke Fran
cis, who is regarded as the prime mover
In Austria's forward policy In the
Balkans.
It is said M. MHovanovics. the Ser
vian Foreign Minister, arrived in Lon
don today. To his policy of moderation
at a critical moment is attributed the
fact that Servia is not plunged in a war
adventure. He will confer with Sir Ed
ward Grey. British Secretary for Foreign
Affairs, and the conferences are expected
to confirm Servia In a policy of peace
M. Wilovanovics will proceed to Paris
on Saturday and then to Kome.

European Powers Move In Harmony

LONDON. Oct. 28. A dispatch to the
Times from Sofia states that Great Brit

an identical note, approving Bulgaria's
recognition that compensation Is due to
Turkey and requesting Bulgaria to fol
