HUN POWERS DRIFTING 70 DISSOLUTION Austria Opposes de olde in the Invasion of Demobilized Russia RUPTURE SEEMS PROBABLE: Official Note Declares War Along | | 1 East Front Ended for Austria Washington, D. C., Feb. 28—Furthe evidence of the growing strain in lations between Germany and Aust over the refusal of the latter to par-| ticipate in the renewed attack upon Russia is given in-an official dispatch | received Wednesday from France. It} quotes the Austrian premier form- ally reitérating on February 22 that Austria-Hungary will take no part in military operations against Russia or Pumania, and will not send her troops | into Ukrainia. Hun May Fight Hun. The dispatch refers to the meeting! ‘between Emperors Charles and Wil- liam February, 22, and says there seems little doubt that a serious con- flict has arisen between the two iia-) tions, which Germany is determined to settle by violent measures it nec-} essary. | Mutually Discourteous The dispatch follows: Charles J., paid a visit to William Ly the 22nd of February. Ludendorff was. present at the interview. If we are to judge from the tone of ‘the interview | it must. have been, lacking in cordial-| ity. There seems tq, ,be little doubt but what,a serious conflict has broke out during, the week, between the | courts of Vienna and’ Berlin, and! which Germany is determined to settle if need be by violent measures.

It was not s{mply the dissent- | ing nationalities, the Czernchs, the!

A second note of the 19th re- peated the same statement. When ask- ed to give further particulars at the sitting of the chamber on the 22nd the| Austrian premier formally stated | “ ‘Phe words uttered by different} deputies have proved that the explan- ation which has been furnished up to the present by me have not been sutf-| ficiently explicit. 1 repeat, therefore, that Austria-Hungary will participate} in no way in the military operation} which is now being carrfed on by Ger- | many against Russia. I repeat that | there is no question of having our troops penetrate into Ukrainia with whom we.are at peace. I repeat that! the armistice rests between Austria- Hungary and Rumania and that we are only considering entering as early as possible into peace conversations with this country.’ ” TETTERC TA Lut bility av PACKERS ARE INTRODUCED Make Legislators ‘‘Friendly”’ Was Plan Chicago, Ill, Feb. 28.—Letters_ set- ting forth the desire of John C.
