OBJE Paris, Dec. 1, 5:10 a. m.—Diplo- matic circles at Rome believe, says the correspondent of the Journal that the visit- of Emperor William to Vienna was made to reconcile if pos- sible, . divergent views of Germany and Austria and obtain a pledge of ter- ritorial sacrifices from Hungary in the hope of assuring the neutrality of Rumania. Keep Rumania Neutral. Alexander Marghiloman and P. P, arp, leader of the Rumanian con- servatives are reported to have as- sured the Duke of Mecklenburg- Schwerin when he was in Bucharest that the benevolent neutrality of 1 Rumania could be counted upon by | the Teutonic allies if Germany could induce Austria to cede Transylvania and part of Bukowina to Rumania. M. Carp is saild to have promised also | to bring about changes in the Ru- manian cabinet, Negotiations hetween Berlin and Vienna, the Journal says, were fruit- less, owing to the determined oppo- sition of Hungary and it is asserted that the German ruler i | ing to induce Emperor geph to consent to the sacrific Transylvania upon the understanding that Germany will return to Austria two provinces of Silesia annexed to Prussia in 1866. Austria Seeking Peace. Rome, Dec. 1, via Paris, 4:45 a. m.—— ! “The real object of Emperor Wil- | liam’s visit to Vienna was to put a stop to efforts Austria is making, by means of negotiations through Mad- rid, with the Vatican, to obtain a separate peace with the quadruple entente,” the Tribuna. “Vienna and Berlin disagree' on the question of peace. Rerlin desires to treat separately with each of the allies so as to break up the quadruple entente, and then to crush England, but Vienna desives a real and lasting peace to end the tension, which rapid~ ly is becoming too great for Austria to bear.” say ISELEGTMA!

AMERICAN FARMER MUST URGE LAWS To Foster and Provide New Eco- Creditors Press Claims, Making Ac- tion Necessary-Liveryman’s Friends sorry Over His Misfortune—Select- | men Won’t Appoint Conlon. Pressure brought by some of largest creditors th for settlement accounts has resulted, it was id today, in preparations by Select- men William C. Hart for the filing of a voluntary petition in bankruptey and the liveryman's accounts were turned over to his lawyer this morn- ing to pave the way for formally noti- fying the courts. Mr. Hart has been in the livery business for a few years and his affairs are now said to be in unsatisfactory shape. That there was a possibility of civil actions, which might force him into bankruptcy, was admitted by | friends of the selectman and it was said. this danger influenced him in making the decision to put his busi- ness affairs in the hands of the courts for settlement. The estate of F. B. Newton is the heaviest creditor and | pressure brought by the administra- tor made the situation critical for Mr. Hart, his decision to quit resulting. The townspeople in general sym- pathize with the selectmen in his mis- fortune. It has been known for some time that the condition of his business affairs were not satisfactory but it was, thought that with the re- turn of prosperous times he would be able to get off the rocks and improve his financial standing. During a period of business depression which preceded the war, Mr. Hart met with reverses, which kept his affairs some- what tangled since. During the past few months, however, there had been a gratifying improvement and had the creditors held off for a reasonable time, Mr. Hart felt certain that he could save himself from bankruptcy. Mr. Hart purchased the business | from the late F. B. Newton and for a time was quite successful. A hard worker himself, the selectmen trie® energetically to keep the busi- | ness going buf the vear of hard times | set him back to such an extent that | he had not fully recovered and the anxiety of his creditors finally brought matters to a head.
