Aug 26 The comment of Lord Robert Cecil, British Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs, on the speech of German Colonial Minister Solf, a Vienna dispatch credits the Fremdenblatt as saying, is in a different tone from that usually manifested by-British statesmen, and is in "contrast with the irreconcilable knockout speeches so ofen heard from British politicians." The Neue Freie Presse says that it is a "striking fact that he tries to tone down Mr Balfour's threat that German colonies will not be returned and transfers the decision to the peace conference." In an interview last Friday Lord Robert Cecil said that Germany was unfit to rule her colonies. He recalled that Mr Balfour had said that the German colonies could not be restored, and continued: "Premier Lloyd George said months ago that the question of the colonies would be settled at the peace conference, but Mr Balfour's more recent statement ruled out the possibility that they would be restored." the unsuccessful search. ine acciaeni. to what heretofore had been the left tUe Al'ette, Oise and Aisne Rivers. the crew or of the plane.

The Austrian rensor did not succeed in preventing the news of the meeting spreading by the wireless which peoples in subjection learned to jiso long beforo Marconi made his Invention. Greetings poured in from every side. It was a mighty demonstration of the solidarity of Austrian Slavs and of their hostility to the Government at Vienna. Out of 50,000.000 persons in the Dual Monarchy 22,000,000 are Slavs.

Many of the remainder are of nationalities which the House of has never been able to subdue. With the Slavic peoples they form an actual majority of Austria's population. In open meeting the Slavs of Austria have announced their firm will not to be thwarted in their efforts to reach "political, National and economic freedom." These are days when every subject of Emperor Karl who has a few drops of Slav blood in his veins is becoming conscious of lk Slav awakening. There are cases in Austria In which a longing for freedom is mistaken by him who feels It for Slav blood. Austria is a precarious union of those who do not belong together.

It is this which has been the chief of the weakness of her armies. An enormous percentage of the men in the ranks would rather be on the other side. The methods by which the Haps-burg monarchs have been able to hold down their ill-assorted subjects lack lasting qualities. Tho Poles, for Instance, have been kept under the alliance of the old Polish aristocracy with tho ruling class of Austria, but the tiiue seems to be at hand when this can no longer avail. The Poles are giving notice openly.

The weak spot in the Central Powers has always been the makeup of Austria-Hungary. Never has it been co near to dissolution as it is today. All this means a weakening of the morale. The house of one of our great enemies is visibly dividing against itself. This is more important than any Naval base strike or any grumbling of soldiers against their officers.

Both the civil and the military are affected by it. Signs of dissolution in her chief ally are not the only disquieting tidings which come to Germany from the East.
