I | DECADENCE - OF AUSTRIA | Its Own Weight. “In my judgment the dissolution of Austria- Hungary and the absorption of its Germanic elements by the confederation | of which Bismarck 1s the genius, is in- evitable,” This remark mude a profound impres- sion on me at the time, uttered as it was by J. Brinsiey Richard-, the Vienna corre- spondent of the London Times, and the best political obseiver as well as the most conseryative critic, in Southeastern Europe. “The occasion was a period of ex- citement at the Austrian capital arising irom fierce insurrectionary movements in Bohemi. The undercurrent of the emeute was the secret aspirations of the peovle for the concession of a crown, with monarchic autonomy similar to that con- ferred upon Hungary. Toe manifestations took the form of racial prejudice and pop- ular resistance to German preponderance in the administration of affai That was eight years ago, but the present spec- tacle of parliamentarv anarchy was then looming in the elective horizon. ‘“Are you really of the opinon 8o largly shared by others,’”” I asked, *“‘that Bis- marck is at the bottom of an intrigue ae- signed to sap the central authority and cause the empire to crumble, =0 that the Prussian house might through revolution, rather than an aggressive policy, acquire dominion over the entire German race?”’ “On the contrarv, I am sure that Bie- marck has no such aspiration. Austria- Hungary is a bulwark he would defend rather than destroy. His policy and words have gone hand in hand on this subject. Again, he delests revolution, and would prefer to gain an end for the stite by any other means, pariicularly where a considerable number of German people was concerned. No, the downfzil of the empire, when it comes, will not be the consequence of intrizue or external pressure. The integrity of the Hapsburg nouse and the preservation of its author- ity over the Balkan frontier are matters of jealous coucern to the powers, and above all to Germany. *‘The trouble lies not in outward enmity. It is internal, and seems to be of the nature of an incurable political disease. Its virus is revolutionary; and although the Aus'rian-Germans do not foresee the consequences, to me it looks as though tkey in time would become politically the instruments of annihilation by assuming the attitude of a hopelessly obstructive minority in the parliamentary family of the emvire. It wiil end, I believe, in an upheaval growing out of repressive do- mestic laws strenuously supported by the German minority, and the abrogation by failure of consent to the consti‘utional provision of compromise on the budget, which iseutered into each decade between Hungary and Austria. Mr. Richards’ astute observation of 1889 brings us to the present crisis asa | proof of his sagacity and foresizht. 1t may be said now with reason, though there need be no apprehension of an im- mediate fultiilment of expectation, that the stability of the empire is most threat- ened by the policy of the German mon- archists. The Austrian tesman who di dain- fully treated Italy as a geograpiical elo- cution can no longer attempti to flatter the entity of Austria-Hungary without being compelled to avow that it 1s scarcely a pclitical expression. The empire com- prises so many nationalities that it has ceased altogether to be a union. While the race which is the protegs of the FEagle of the Hapsbures easily dominates the others, this privilege is equivalent only to the appearance of unity. Since the others have gained con- sciousness of their vitality in aspiring to special independence by common courtesy, anarchy menaces the ancieut empire. The single solid bond that maintains the edifice is the Emperor. As yet the per- nality of Francis Joseph is more re- specteda than the crown itself, & fact which does not oven a very reassuring perspec- tive to his successor. It is true that the Emperor’s reign, be- gun at the age of 18 years in 1848 while the revolutionary propaganda deeply agi- tated tbe Continent, continues through insurrections, changes, internal disorders snd external defeats to strengthen the courage of his old age. A sovereign rather melancholy and tempered by in- numerable misfortunes he onposes suc- cessfully his great prestige to the in- creasing difficulties of his authority ana the fatalities his power and stubbornness cannot preyent. The racial segregations of the Austro- Hungarian state, the babel of tongues and the religious antagonisms, make it seem impossible that the equilibrinm of the empirs can endure. It isonly main- tained at the price of continual calcuia- tion, in discovering theinherent weakness of revolutionary claims and by the oppo- sition to them of forces radically hostile in spirit. Thus conceived and practiced, the im- perial po’itics are made tosurvive through absorbing care for details, through the fragility of the respective elements under- mining it, but which obey the imperial authority in the last extremity only from fear of otherwise becoming the plaything of a rival faction in the state. Latest statisucs roughly show the fol- lowing enumeration of races in the em- pire: 10.96),000 Germans, 7.770.000 Czechs, Moravians and Slovacks, 7,508,000 Magyars (Aungarians), 4,879.000 Croats, 3,900,000 Poles, 3,665,070 Ruthens, 2,940,000 Rumani or Wallachians, 25,000 Siovens and 729,000 Italians. Such are the larger members of this in- congruous government, without taking into account the numerous iractional parts, each of which is consumed with political jealousy and struggling for a chimerical supremacy. Six essential lan- guages complicate tue affairs of govern- ment and retard social fusion. The tech- nical prriection of the military organiza tion, upon which the security of the em- pire reposes, is checked if not rendered npossib e vy the difficulties of oral and verbal relations, first between the officers and men, and finally between the differ- ent regimenial formations. The predominance of the Catholics, who number 28,740,000, is not absolute, though it bas been made effective by the long- estabil:hed entente and amity between the hierarchy at Rome and the last of the Cwmsarian empires. Should the Vatican encourage in Austro- Hungary the spread ol the republican-socialistic propa:anda it seems to favor in western civilization, as a step to theeventuation of a socialistic oligarchy in which the temporal voice of the church may be supreme, the house of Hapsburg would perish amid scenes of violence and terror. The wurring political forces other than the Catholics are divided into Caivinist Protestants, 4.025,000; united Greeks, 4,527,000; orthodox Greek: 3825; Israe.ites, 1920,000; Mussulmans 500,000, and lesser sectarian followings. It is over all the stormy agitation of these forces that isextended the trem- bling scepter of Francis Joseph, Emperor at Vienna and King in Buda-Pesth. The safety of imperial autonomy has de- pended on the wise and preservative doc- trine to which both monarchic parties are committed, whichis in effect an agree- ment of compromise under all circum- stances of minor disseverances as to in- ternal policies, to maintain a dynastic union. From this bond it results that the conduct of what is described as com- mon affairs—that 1s to say diplomacy, or foreign affairs, the army and finance—is placed beyond the jugglories of parties and the accidents or intrigues of party combinations. This constitutional cu:- tom is aptly described by a critic of the Austrian situation asthe arcof salvation, the intangible reserve force, the superior domain of the imperial will, The renewal of the compact between the two monarchic branches of the em- Ppire occurs every ten years under the fol- lowing article of the constitution: ““Tne common expenses shall be divided between Austria and Hungary, according 1o the proportion estabiished by the two Governments. 1f no satisfactory under- standing is reached the Emperor will ad- just the proportion, but only for the dur- ance of one year.” If on the last day of the present year, such being the iermination of the decade covered by the last adjustment, an agree- meut as to the division of the public ex- penses has not been approved, the Emwm- veror will exercise his constitutional authority. If he doesit will be the first time he has decreed the division of the budget since the origin of the compremise in 1867. Every ten years since then the agita- tions marking the period of renewal have increased, until thedifferences of 1597, ex- ceding ail others in bitterness and vio- lence, have assumed a pronouncedly revo- lutionary form. It requires no adept in political analysis to forezee the perils of imuerial intervention in a matterso deli- cale, involving, #s it does, the settlement of a question which is the subsentient mo- tive of all overthrows of governmsntal power. The Emperor’s partition of the budget, no matter how wisely dictated, would satisfy nobody, as it must prove a tempo- rary expedient for a year, during which dissacisfaction and political disintegration will grow apace. The secret of the present stress and danger lies in the decadence of the Ger- | man autnority in the empire. Realiz ng their gradual dispossession of adminis tration and governmental pre-eminence, which had come to be regcarded as an ancient privilege, the Austrian Gormans are striving to reconquer, legislatively, a pover now strong!y disputed by the Poles and Czechs—a power no longer justified by their numbers. Incapable of succeed- ine by those gifts of cleverness and supple- ness which nature, according to the French point of view, has denied them, they scek revenge in parliamentary buc- caneering and violence of obstruction. A considerable minority in the Reichsrath, they sought to impose the pro-G:rman propositions of Premier Badeni on the disaffected majority, until in the end they disheariened the Emperor and shattered the firmness he has preserved hitherto betweea the parties. It is apparent that the negative ex- piration of the Austro-Hungarian com- promise, which will be continued in- definitely if the Hungarians main- tain their present attitude in pur- suic of the ambition to become a dis- tinet and separate monarchy, will afford the German minority additional and just weapons of parliamentary warfare. The principle involved and the pretexts of the occasion will serve well their pas- sion for the retention of dominance, as well as their particular interests, which wiil inspire them to shatter without scru- plethe teredo-eaten piles on which the empire of the Hapsburgs is supported. A failure to make important conces- sions to Hungary—and the conservative German parties have no disposition to establish a closer political fraternity with the subtle Magyars, will produce dire consequences, the worst phase of which will be the fiercer unification of their own members in the performance of an absolutely obstructive programme. Thus we may witness a reversal of the order of the day. The Germans, who once presid- ed gver the destinies of Austria-Hungzary, who were disciplined under the political maxims of the hierarchy in defense of the divine right of the sovereign, will become the actual revolutionists of the empire. Instead of molli ying they will ageravate the parliamentary misunderstandings by their policy of stubbornness; embitter the siruggle between the race factions for fuiler recognition in domestic affairs, by deadlocking their demands with obstruc- tion, and open the door to weak and repressive expedients ol the central power, which must end in furthering the rebelli- ous aspirations of minor members of the imperial union. The most extraordinary political paper incidental to the pariiamentary coup d’etat was a passionate appeal to German sympathy at the north from the pen of Professor Mommsen, the vhilosopher and histor:an. Its tullest significance is found in the aprroving acclaimm with whnich it was received by the press and people of Germany, as well as of Austria, though its tone and langunge are certain to be resent- ed by the siatesmen of the confederation who adhere to the unification doctrines of Bismarck. Mommsen deplores the fate of the struggle deeided atSadowa by the formation of a Germanic power that left the Austrian Germans isolated at the south and preaches the hope of a pan-Ger- manic state; a reunion ahd solidarity of Germans on the Continent. “We may believe,” he says, ‘‘as tie Austrians are concerned about the Germans so the Ger- mans are concerned about the Austrians, and our bearts bleed in unison in the vresence of so much shame and so many outrages. Then ne adds: ‘That the Alps of Salsburg and the Tyrol belong to the German nation; that ihe Danube remains as German as the Rhine; that the tomb ot Mozart and of Grillparzer are as German as those of Schilier and of Goette—uobody, even in the iiveliest strife between us, can doubt— cold German$ of the nor The suicide of the Ausirian monarchy is provoked by the madness of the pe ple | of Cisiythania, the loily of the liberals Empire Falling to Pieces of of Transylvania and the emasculation of the Caholics, who wear their beads above their birthplace and serve their country as Peter disavowed the Lord. erywhere let us be obaurate. Reason cannot enter the skull ot a Czech, but he is sensible in the vody! Ler us be harsh! “It is not parliamentarv weapons we should employ against our adversaries, who respect neither justice nor order. “Wuile these oulrages are perpetrated against him the German of Austria ceases to be an Austrian.” Here is an aflirmation of revolutionary policy from one of the greatest—if not the ereatest—Austrian scholars. How plainly does he churge the conuition to be oue of suicidal intent on the part of the Austro- Hungarian monarchy, traceable no: to the resoluteness of the German spirit to dominate the empire without compromise and at any cost, but rather to the special political mania and aisloyalty of those who seek larger liverties and a wider lati- tude of seli-governinent, as well as rescue from parliamentary despotism. That Professor Mowmmsen should go to such lengths in obviously seeking to solidify German sentiment against the homogeneous niajority of the empire, while invoking the policy of the bayonet and cannon is sufficient indication of an Aus- trian revolution of pan-Germanlc motive. Nor is this impulse, geuerated and nuc- tured by sympathy of language and ori- gin, and defensible by tradition, to be lightly quelied by the maxims of states- men to whom tnhe siatus quo is the first law of preservation. Bismarck’s well-defined opposition to such ambitions, whether ot Prussian or Austrian origin, has been regarded as in- sincere, on untenable grounds. Austris- Hungary is the southern paling of tae inclosure in which is growing to the fullness of strength the tree of Prussian confederation. However weak, the Haps- burg empire is vastly preferable to a broken barrier of lesser and antagonistic states, added to those already sustained by concord of the powers in the Balkans. Realizing the sensibilities of the retired Chancellor, we may readily perceive the mind that dic ated the foilowing sarcastic criticism of Professor Momm-<en, which appeared recently in Bismarck's private organ: ‘We have always thought that Profes- sor Mommsen, like Professor Virchow, is a great savant but a poor politic an. The letter which he has written, and whicn vividly recalls the phraseology of Victor Hugo, does not alter this opinion. Pro- fessor Mommsen, despite his ad- vanced age and the weight of ideas he hasacquired, seems to consider politics as a matter to be treated by sentiment rather than reason. We fear that his manif-sta- tions will do the Germans of Austria more harm than good. “In any case, their adversaries will be poor tacticians if they do not use Momm- sen’s letter as & pretext for casting sas- picion on the Austrian Germans and on the “visees’”” which they grant. We will not dwell on the monstroas politics con- tained 1n Mommsen'’s ietter nor on its ten dency to provoke acts of violence. “But we feel it to be our duty to express our resret at secing an illustrious German pher interfering, after a fashion as shocking as it is distressing, in the in- terior strifes of a state with which we are bound by a treaty ot all If any turther evidence were required as to Bismarck’s views on the subject of a Pan-Germanic scoeme that wouid leave the Austrian empire in ruins as compleie as the fragments of a shattered planet rolling through an opague orbit in space, it would be found in his deciaration 1o Ernest Judet, made in bis retirement: “There are some persons in Germany and elsewhere,” said he, ‘‘wio accuse me of a desire to destroy Austria and take into the confederation her 9,000.000 or 10,000,000 of Germans. This is an absurd- 1ty to whicn time has done justice, like it has to many another. ‘Moreover, Vienna and Berlin, the two great German capitals, can never exist simultaneously in the same empire.” It is not ihe purpose of this review to treat upon the glaring necessities for modifications in the domestic laws of an empire in which a public lying-in hos- pital is supported by the Government in amelioration of the immoral consequences of repressive marriage decrees growing out of its barbaric tax sysiem. Itissufficient to say that the popular grievances, aside from the sectarian and racial conflicts and antipathies, are largely justified and merit the concihatory atten- tion of the highest statesmanship rather than the brusque and repeilant hostility of the de:potic governing class. The sum of the political situation is th Tnat Emperor William, no more tt:an Bismarck, cherishes any desire to see the Austrian Empire erupted and dis- membered, notwithstanding the common belief that the Prussian aspiration is to embrace the Austrian Germans in the Hohenzollern empire. That the most active and threatening revolutionary forces at work in Austria- Hungary are not those of the Magyar, Slavie, German sociaiistic or irredente cast, but the Austro-German monarch- ists who would rather see the imperial au- thority degraded befors the werld aund finelly subverted thau to make just polit. cal concessions (when it would be wisdom on their part to initiate them) or agree on administraiive compromises, witu a ma- jority representing states bent on secur- ing reforms which would be of real benerit in knitting the parts of the empire more firmly together. That Professor Mommsen consciously breathes the very spirit «f an autoera ic counter-revolulion that would serve the progressive programme of these unhappy peoples as ‘he emigres served the irre- pressible democracy of France in tha last century.
